absolutely craving my grain free/dairy free tahini

absolutely craving my grain free/dairy free tahini brownies right now ❤️ there’s nothing better truly. on my site for years and ALWAYS a favorite!

tips to make them even better:
•feel free to use brown sugar to increase the fudge factor
•swap in almond flour for the coconut flour (any flour will work though!)
•use cacao powder for a richer chocolate flavor
•use a good quality very creamy tahini (I only use @soomfoods)
•feel free to make them vegan by using 2 flax eggs

hope you absolutely LOVE them as much as we do. try them straight from the fridge — to die for!!!

my new favorite salmon that I dubbed “Mrs. Juicy” is just too damn GOOD!

LEMON GARLIC SALMON marinated to perfection and baked until tender. Sidney LOVES this one... we just use maple syrup instead of honey when he has it. love this with pesto pasta or coconut rice + broccoli.

enjoy, my loves — recipe link in bio!

12 weeks to go ❤️ and there’s so many things

12 weeks to go ❤️ and there’s so many things I’m looking forward to:

•meeting my little boy (what will he look like?)
•really embracing those newborn snuggles
•the special bonding post birth
•and gasp! maybe even birth itself...

the first time around, while labor was somewhat terrifying and maybe a little traumatizing, it made me fearless.

walking into this birth and labor, with open arms and hopefully a super open cervix lmfao. but really, I’m open to whatever comes my way, and however this little one wants to come into the world. so excited to meet you, my sweetheart ❤️ #28weekspregnant #3rdtrimester #thirdtrimester
