DAIRY-FREE BROWNIE OREO TRIFLE

Did you know on this day in 1912, the very first OREO was sold to a grocer in Hoboken, New Jersey? Now March 6 recognized as National OREO Day!

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.

Here’s what shakin’, bacon!

Summer Treats!

Featured

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Strawberry Cream Pie

This no-bake treat is super easy—a creamy combo of sweet vanilla pudding, fresh strawberries (or fruit of choice) with the scattered crunch. Essentially all the best textures in a chilled layered dessert. It’s definitely one to bring to a backyard party or family get together. It’s not so much a “pie” as a layered dessert, but that’s what we have been calling it so there you go

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Pretzel Salad

This Southern summer classic has a little bit of something for everyone. It’s sweet, crunchy, creamy, bright…basically all the flavors of summer.

Gluten-Free Watermelon, Tomato + Feta Salad

The perfect summer day calls for a perfect summer dish and for me no other fruit epitomizes summer more than watermelon.

Gluten-Free, Vegan Peach Crisp

One of the best things about summer is the fresh produce, like these fabulous Georgia Peaches! As soon as I get those fuzzy, ripe peaches in my hands, my mind whirls with all their potential—crumbles, pies, galettes, tarts, popsicles, scones, ice cream, salad…the list goes on and on!

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Rum Cake

We’ve been on an island-high since returning from the Bahamas and we’re craving some of the good stuff. That’s right, some of that sweet nectar—Caribbean rum!

Travel Guide | Nashville Wall Guide Pt. 1 - Where to get that IG-Worthy Mural Shot

Locals and those just in Nashville for the weekend capture their experience with photos in front of one (if not several) of the city’s colorful walls and murals. They’re the perfect insta-opportunity!

Instead of driving around hoping you’ll find what you’re looking for, I’ve rounded up some of our favorite Instagram-worthy walls throughout downtown Nashville and the surrounding neighborhoods.

Gluten-Free, Vegan S’more Cookies

So to recap, these cookies…well—They’ve got chocolate chips. They’ve got marshmallows. They’re gluten-free. They’re vegan. ‘Nuff said.

Travel Guide | Maui, Hawaii

Besides the obvious words like tropical and beautiful that come to mind when describing Maui, another word comes to mind—unexpected. Maui has unexpected gems around every corner.

Gluten-Free, Keto Lemony Lemon Bars

And with Easter right around the corner I knew I wanted to make something bright, fresh, and bursting with the goodness of Spring (+ Keto-approved). Fresh, tangy lemons create a smooth, dreamy filling, held up by a sweet, almond flour crust. Then lightly dusted with a confectionary sugar substitute for an easy layered dessert.
