If you’re looking to portion control your desserts, these are a good option. They are easy to make too. You can pretty much choose any fruit and nut butter combination you like. I made: Cherry with Cashew and Almond Butter MixtureStrawberry with Cashew and Almond Butter MixtureBanana with Cashew and […]
When I was growing up my great-aunt used to also make a strawberry and cream cheese dessert for me on special occasions. I never got the recipe from her, but I figured I could kind of recreate it using strained SCD yogurt. This turned out very good. Her dessert had […]
SCD For Life is now on Instagram! I’m excited to share some cooking (an anything photos) on Instagram. Now I can share some in progress photos and maybe even try out a video. Come follow!
