Davidson Farmers Market








Saturday morning, summit coffee, fresh produce, fun treats, community, flowers and my darling hometown...I mean come on, what more could a girl ask for?

This morning, I had a treat from "Queen of Oats".  After a sweaty and freeing "kardio dance" class at Kadi Fit, I deserved it man.  My treat was the oat, nut, and love filled breakfast cookie pictured above.  Noticed it was half eaten before my camera could capture it......so yes, it was a snack worthy of royalty.  It was gluten-free, vegan friendly and sweetened with dates!  Yum!  That little babe must have sparked my sweet tooth because I then proceeded to snack on that cute, little carton of figs.  I love guilt-free treats.  For those of you baking this weekend, I challenge you to sweeten your treats with natural sugar sources like dates and figs.  The secret is to make it taste like you're cheating and fill your weekend craving without suffering world war I of calorie counting because you just ate like 18 tablespoons of processed sugar in that Chick Fil A chocolate chip cookie.

Tomorrow I am making "Happy Herbivore's" vegan chili and finally using the "Bob Mills" gluten free cornbread mix I have had in my pantry since Thanksgiving.  I will post the recipes and photos tomorrow!  Every other weekend my town hosts "Concert on the Green" and my family is counting on some chili and cornbread Sarah style.  It's all about eating the foods that you love without compromising your health.

Speaking of, go check out my gluten free salmon and veggie wrap under the recipes tab!  It is a great way to incorporate that leftover salmon into a yummy and satisfying lunch!

Have a lovely and blessed saturday dolls!
