When I’m not drinking my pumpkin, putting it in a soup, or making a curry or some other concoction out of it, I make pumpkin nut pancakes . Not only are the gluten and dairy free, they are delicious and filling.

I sometimes think that leftovers get a bad rap. But, leftovers offer such promise, especially for those of us who struggle to find time to make food that is gluten-free, dairy-free, or free of other allergens. Leftovers – whether truly left over or intentionally prepared as extras – are a great way to save time, save money, and stay healthy.

Last night, I totally messed up the cake I was making. You know how pineapple upside down cake is supposed to have the pineapple at the bottom of the cake pan while baking?

After making trail mix the other day, I decided to figure out what to do with the mulberries I had left. I ran across a blog called Afghan Cooking Unveiled that had a recipe for Afghan Mulberry and Walnut Power Bars. Very similar to a Lara or Think bar, these raw dried fruit and nut bars sounded right up my alley.

Turns out that mulberries taste great with walnuts. So, logically, I took the easy route and just threw them all together in a bowl, winding up with an exotic trail mix.
