Friday, October 29, 2010. Hot, mulled apple cider is a favorite of mine! I love when fall rolls around and I can start drinking this tasty beverage.

(Did you know that cinnamon helps your blood sugar go down? Well, it does. So add more cinnamon to your daily diet. :) ). Cozy up to some mulled apple cider tonight!

http://alternativetreats.blogspot.com/2010/09/bbq-breakfast.html
Wednesday, September 8, 2010. This morning, after writing the blog about our Labor Day. Dinner, I realized, I had not yet had enough of the BBQ sauce. I had to incorporate it into breakfast. :). I sliced some pre-cooked polenta*, seasoned it a little, and sautéed it. I then made a sunny side up egg seasoned with salt and pepper. Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Soy-free. This was quite tasty. I loved the hint of spiciness the BBQ sauce added to the dish. Posted by Alternative Treats. September 8, 2010 at 2:47 PM.
