While shopping for personal choice ice cream for my family this weekend, I was sad and frustrated because there are no on-plan, dairy free ice cream options. One of my daughters and I are dairy free for health reasons. She and I really wanted some ice cream. So, I just decided to go home and …
My children request ice cream often and cookie dough is usually at the top of the list. However, with food allergies and sensitivities, we can’t ever buy one that is dairy free, grain free, gluten free, sugar free, and on-plan with Trim Healthy Mama.

Cheesecake is one of my all time favorite desserts, but it is no small feat to bake a cheesecake. My grandmama used to make no bake cheesecake from a box. She wasn’t one to use boxed desserts often but that was one of her ways of cutting down on the time and work to make …
I am pretty sure I’m not alone when I say desserts are my favorite meals. I am so thankful to have healthy alternatives to some of the “foods” I used to enjoy. I use the term “foods” loosely because I now know that those sweets aren’t real food that God intended for me to eat. …
