  1. No-Bake Smore’s Energy Bites (Gluten Free and Vegan)

    I seriously could write an entire post about my love for today’s guest blogger. Meg from Beard and Bonnet is not only one of my favorite gluten-free bloggers, but I am so incredibly lucky to have Meg as a neighbor and a close friend. My love for this lady cannot be explained in a simple intro to a blog post. I have to say, besides being away from my husband and my pets so much this month during yoga teacher training, it is almost as hard being away from Meg. We talk soo much throughout the day, through texts, on the phone or on a walk through the neighborhood. If you haven’t checked out Meg’s amazing site Beard and Bonnet before, I can tell you, it is chock full of creative gluten-free and vegetarian recipes and some of the most beautiful photography you have ever laid your eyes on, so after you check out this amazing treat, get on over there and check it out.

    No-Bake Smore's Energy Bites (Gluten Free and Vegan)

    Hello again Tasty Yummies friends, it’s Meg here from Beard and Bonnet.  I am so happy to be here with you again today while Beth is finishing up her yoga training.

    I am the type of person that will schedule so many things into each day that I have little to no wiggle room for when life actually happens. You know, the inevitable last minute errand that pops up, or when your kid comes down with a cold and you’re suddenly tied to your house until they are no longer a walking petri dish. Yep, I am one of THOSE people. I am almost always in a full on dash to the next thing, and it’s not that I don’t want to enjoy every moment it’s that I want to enjoy all of the moments and then some. You know, I want to seize the day with a vengeance and never look back and say ‘I wish I had just made time to…’ please, tell me I am not the only person that lives like this!

  2. 50 Gluten-free Curry Recipes

    50 Gluten-free Curry Recipes

    Hello Tasty Yummies readers, its Meg from Beard and Bonnet here! I am happy to be filling in for Beth today while she is fulfilling her dream of becoming a yoga instructor. Way to go Beth, I am so incredibly proud of you.

    Confession: curry is my current obsession. I’m not really picky when it comes to eating curry; I like Thai curries, Indian Curry, Red, Green, and Yellow Curry. I love it all, I love it a lot, and I know that Beth does, too. So today I decided to hit up a few of our blogging buddies and round up 50 delicious gluten-free curry recipes to share with you.

    There is a little something for everyone in this round up; there are even a few recipes for gluten-free Naan and Sweet Curry Brown Sugar Popcorn. Oh yeah, and even though I write a gluten-free vegetarian blog I know that Beth occasionally posts recipes with meat so I figured what the heck, I’ll even throw in a few of those!

    Do you have a favorite curry recipe?

  4. Photo Fun Day Friday

    It’s been a busy few weeks, so I have neglected my Photo Fun Day Friday posts. This is a full one, but it’s been a fun few weeks, so I had to share. I cannot believe we are into November already. The holidays are nipping at our heels, somehow. It’s crazy.

  5. A Super Healthy Gluten-Free Super Bowl – A Recipe Round-Up

    A Super Healthy Gluten-Free Super Bowl - A Recipe Round-Up

    Are you looking forward to celebrating the big game, but not looking forward to all the junk food that will likely be laid out for hours of grazing? With the help of some of my favorite gluten-free bloggers, here is a list of some of our very favorite snacks, appetizers, finger foods, sweets and the like, that would be perfect for any Super Bowl celebration. Some of the recipes are vegan, some dairy-free, but ALL of the recipes below are gluten-free and mostly healthy (everything in moderation, right? So pick and choose your favorite recipes and make yourself the perfect healthy super bowl menu! I broke it down into quarters to have fun with it, I cannot even imagine actually consuming this much food per quarter, however. Healthy or not, you may have to be rolled out of that party!

    We are celebrating at my parent’s house, as we do every year. Both of my sisters and their kids will be there, as well as our good friends Karen and Vinnie. We will eat, drink, watch the game and criticize the commercials! It’s gonna be great. Although I am rooting for the 49ers, San Francisco doesn’t have a lot of foods it is known for, so I am making some grain-free crab cakes in honor of Baltimore!! I hope the recipes works. Look for it soon, if it does.

    What do you have planned for the big game on Sunday?
