Tres Leches Dessert

I have a mega treat for you today. This was one of my favorite desserts growing up in Ecuador. My mom would make a few of these for special occasions or for birthday parties, and I, being the food-lover that I am, would polish off whatever cake leftovers there were after the party was over.

Creamy Paleo Waldorf Salad

I have a thing for creamy foods. For example, I am a total sucker for yogurt (dairy-free ones, like: cashew, coconut, etc.), Paleo smoothies (obvs — see why here!), thick curries, and creamy desserts (like cheesecake, fudge and brownies). I don’t know exactly what it is about feeling that smooth creaminess in my mouth, but alls I know is that I loooooves it.

Dirty Chai Paleo Muffins with Cinnamon Sugar Whipped Cream

I have a dirty chai latte lover at home. And I love it. This man is a total sucker for crafted coffee beverages, those that are a bit sweet and a bit spicy (which, coincidentally, is his wife’s personality description).
