Whipped Coconut Cream

Whipped Coconut Cream

Whipped Coconut Cream We all credit Tanner, our ‘whip cream connoisseur,’ for perfecting this recipe. Looks and tastes so much like dairy whipped cream you'll cheer! Turns homemade glutenfree pancakes into a party and Creamy Pumpkin Pie into all your dreams come true. Dessert Whip Dispensers form coconut milk, almond milk or other thick milks into nice stiff peaks and with decorator tips, can provide hours of artistic therapy for anyone. They cost around $50 online or at specialty kitchen shops. Cartridges run about $.80 each, but WOW what a treat. Only the whitest, creamiest coconut milk makes the whitest,...

Dark Chocolate Macadamia Sea Salt Bars (Fat Bombs)

Dark Chocolate Macadamia Sea Salt Bars (Fat Bombs)

The Tumtree kitchen has been cookin again with a handful of new low or no carb treats you can enjoy and still FEEL GOOD. This ones my fave because I'm so in love with Jojo's chocolate bark (from Costco). These have even less sugar AND more quality, antifungal coconut oil in them! Give it a go and let me know what you think of them. What's a "fat bomb" you ask? It's the "protein energy balls" of yesterday, but with way low to no carbs in them that spike blood sugars.
