I prefer a light and refreshing Low-Carb dessert after a heavy meal and fresh fruit is usually my preference. If you don't care for my fruit choices, feel free to substitute with your own favorite low glycemic fruits for the Cantaloupe Wedges. Adding the Swerve Granular Sweetener to the fruit gives it a bit of extra sweetness as well as macerate the fruit which allows the natural sweetness to shine. I have found that frozen organic blueberries work best in this recipe.

Many of my friends have gardens or farms, Which is a very good thing because I have a very black thumb. I have come to rely on the bounty of produce they gift me each summer and fall. My family will not eat plain old tomatoes but we will all eat Low-Carb Gluten-Free salsa. This recipe is my answer to no tomatoes on our salads.

This Traditional Greek Vinaigrette Dressing Low-Carb Gluten-Free Recipe was my first attempt at recipe creating, primarily because I don't care for the taste of store-bought dressing.

Raspberry Vinaigrette is one of my favorite Low-Carb Gluten-Free salad dressings. In the summer time, I use fresh berries compliments of my neighbor's garden (shhhhh...don't tell her).

This dressing is light and fresh and always puts a smile on my face.
