I’m Jennifer Bell, the author at A Sweet Alternative. I’ve been developing recipes for over seven years, and each recipe is tested thoroughly before it’s published. The recipes I create are simple to make and full of nutritious ingredients.
My passion for cooking dates back to my teenage years when I worked as a waitress and spent as much time as possible hanging out in the restaurant kitchen so I could watch the chefs cook and absorb everything I could learn.
I have two amazing kids who inspire me to create nutrient-packed recipes. I consider it a win when they give my recipes a thumb’s up.
I’ve been following a plant-based diet for the past few years, so the recipes I create don’t contain animal products such as meat, dairy, eggs, or honey. All types of eaters are welcome here, and my meat-eating family and friends enjoy my recipes too!
I’ve noticed that I feel better when I reduce refined sugar in my diet, so many of the recipes I create call for alternative sweeteners such as dates, coconut sugar, and maple syrup. I also love baking with nutritious flours such as coconut flour, buckwheat flour, chickpea flour, and oat flour (this chocolate oat flour cake is my all time favorite).
In addition to creating nutritious dessert recipes, I’ll also be providing plenty of recipes for main courses, soups, drinks, sides, appetizers, and snacks. SUBSCRIBE to receive free recipes by email, and feel free to get in touch with any questions at [email protected].
