Aussie Fairy Bread

February 5, 2017

Aussies may be known worldwide for enjoying a great barbecue, but they are no strangers to the sweeter things in life. Iโ€™m talking about desserts! Thank goodness I love sweets because I had a fair amount to try while living down under โ€” from laminations and pavlova to Tim Tams and ANZAC biscuits.

Store-Bought Upgrade - Gluten-Free Mediterranean Hummus (Vegan Optional)

February 1, 2017

Letโ€™s be honest, we donโ€™t always have time to make everything from scratch like we would like and thatโ€™s okay. This is where upgrading a recipe comes into playโ€”starting with something store-bought and making it better.

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Chocolate Cake

January 26, 2017

Mmm chocolate cake! If I had to choose one type of cake to eat forever, it would be chocolate, preferably with some praline* between the layers. Either way, chocolate is king! Moist and decadent with its rich chocolate brown color, this will be your go-to chocolate cake recipe. Did I mention it is gluten AND dairy free? Well it is and no one will be able to tell a difference.

French Onion Soup

January 22, 2017

January is apparently National Soup Month! It makes sense is January is chilly and soup is the perfect meal to enjoy on the couch while wearing fuzzy socks, but itโ€™s been 60-75 degrees here in Nashville all week. Itโ€™s insane.

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Gourmet Popcorn Mix

January 19, 2017

Rainy days call for movie night, am I right? And what is a movie night without popcorn. Mix it up with this sweet & salty take of a gourmet-style popcorn. The sweetness of the caramel, the saltiness of the popcorn, the crunch of the roasted nuts and the melt-iness of the chocolate will have you wondering how you can sneak some in on your next trip to the theatre.

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Pan-Fried Pierogi

January 10, 2017

But the best way to eat leftover boiled pierogi? Pan-fried of course! You can make the pan-fried version straight after boiling them, but I prefer pan-frying them the next day for an extra treat!

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Butter Tarts

January 5, 2017

One of my favorite desserts is definitely butter tarts! Fortunately for my figure I donโ€™t keep them around all the time because I would eat them all in one sitting, but since I only make them for special occasions they are a real treat!!

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Morning Muffins

January 1, 2017

Breakfast food is my favorite genre of food; however, I love to sleep in late and therefore subject myself to sub-par breakfast options as I am running out the door. The solution: Making muffins ahead of time!

Hi, I'm Shalan! Studioist.co is my journal devoted to adventures, creativity, recipes, and my husband LeBraun and I's semi-nomadic lifestyle. I spend most of my days wondering how to combine my two loves, traveling and illustrations. The rest of my time I spend trying to create awesome gluten-free, dairy-free recipes. I want this to be a place of inspiration and encouragement as well as a fun place to spend your time. And yes, sometimes it gets messy, but I wouldn't have it any other way.


Hereโ€™s what shakinโ€™, bacon!
