This might be my favorite brownie recipe – they’re that good. Trust me, you’ll want to make these. 😉

Flourless Chocolate Brownie

Here’s the summary of how these insane flourless chocolate brownies came together (specifics are in the recipe at the end of this post). Melt the coconut oil and stir in the chocolate chips until melted. You’ll be gently stirring for a little while to get those chips melted. Sneak a taste or two, but leave some for the actual brownies. 😉 Set aside to cool.

In another bowl, beat eggs, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. I did this by hand, but you can use a hand-held mixer. If beating by hand, keep going until smooth – about 3 minutes or so. Add melted chocolate mixture and continue stirring to completely combine. Add in cocoa powder, salt, cornstarch, and a dash of cinnamon. Mix well to combine. Batter will be thick. Pour into a parchment-lined and well-oiled pan (I used coconut oil) and bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes.

Let the brownies cool completely before cutting and serving. Behold, the flaky and cracked top!

Consume with a glass of coconut milk, if that’s your thing. Equally wonderful would be a warm brownie topped with a scoop of coconut vanilla ice cream. The brownies didn’t last long enough for me to capture that photo! 😉

Marinated Beef Kabobs With Veggies

These colorful Marinated Beef Kabobs With Veggies are easy to assemble and even easier to grill.

Marinated Beef Shish Kabobs

It’s that time of the year – time to fire up the grill. Well, anytime is the time to grill, but especially during the spring and summer months when burgers and kabobs are the name of the game. These colorful Marinated Beef Kabobs With Veggies are easy to assemble and even easier to grill.

I like to make my own kabob marinade using gluten-free soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder and Italian-blend herbs. I cut the steak into cube-sized chunks and throw them in the marinade and let them hang out in the fridge for a few hours. If you plan way ahead, you can let the beef marinate overnight.

For the veggies, I like to use a colorful combo of peppers, onions and tomatoes. Just cut into large chunks that will easily fit onto a skewer. I make the same marinade again and toss the veggies in it before skewering.

Marinated Beef Shish Kabobs

Years ago someone gave us a set of stainless steel BBQ skewers, which may possibly be one of the best gifts ever, especially if you grill kabobs! If you want some easy to use, easy to clean, flameproof skewers, consider grabbing a set.

Once you have everything skewered, put the kabobs on the grill. I like to line a grill pan (or two) with foil and set the skewers on that before placing on the grill. I do this because the oil from the kabobs tends to flare up. Safety first!

Your kabobs will still grill beautifully with the char marks. Use tongs to turn the skewers while on the grill so that all sides get evenly cooked. See:

Red, White, and Blue Fruit Salad

This Red, White, and Blue Fruit Salad is perfect for any patriotic holiday gathering or just on its own.

Red, White, and Blue Fruit Salad

This fresh fruit salad is so simple to put together. I used organic fruits: strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. Just rinse the berries and pat them dry with paper towels. Slice the strawberries and bananas and just toss in the blueberries.

Red, White, and Blue Fruit Salad

I think fresh fruit salads can stand on their own, but I do like the addition of just a little honey and lemon, dressed just prior to serving. I add the juice of a lemon to the fruit and toss carefully before drizzling a little honey over the top of the fruit.

Red, White, and Blue Fruit Salad

If honey and lemon isn’t your thing, add a little freshly whipped cream to the top. Here, I’ve used freshly whipped coconut milk cream.

Red, White, and Blue Fruit Salad

Honestly, fresh fruit can stand on its own without any help, don’t you think? Whichever way you choose to “dress” it, enjoy!
