Luxear Food Storage Containers For Produce And More

 The Luxear food storage containers will help keep your produce fresh and your refrigerator organized! They may even help you to eat more fruits and veggies.


Summer is my favorite time of the year. The warmer weather of summer brings joy to me for so many reasons. I can sleep with the windows open and fall asleep to the sounds of crickets chirping. When morning comes, I love being woken up by the sounds of birds singing and seeing the sun rise. This puts me in a great mood.

The best part of summer is growing vegetables in my Southwest garden and enjoying the summer fruits that I can pick from the fruit trees around my neighborhood. From beet greens to sweet apricots to even prickly pears, my fridge is always packed with plenty of summer produce.

 I love waking up in the morning and making a smoothie with the fresh greens that I grew in my Tower Garden and the fresh fruit that I have stored in my refrigerator. Summer is the time when I have a wide variety of fresh produce in my fridge. Sometimes I have so many fruits and veggies in my fridge that my storage quickly gets out of control. It can be hard to know what I have, and at times this leads to the produce spoiling.

Luxear food storage containers for the best produce storage 

I am glad that I decided to buy some food storage containers for my summer produce. Having food storage containers to store all my fruits and veggies in my fridge has helped my family eat more produce. These containers also keep my fruits and veggies fresh for a longer time.

I chose the Luxear Food Storage Containers for my summer fruits and vegetables as these containers have some awesome features that I like. The 3-container set is multipurpose and perfect for fruit storage in the summer.

These BPA-free food-safe containers come with removable colanders, so I can wash, soak, and drain the produce all in the same container. Once I wash my veggies and fruits, I grab the lid to the container and snap it in place. Then I place the food in the refrigerator for easy access.

 I love that the Luxear food storage containers are clear, so at a glance, I can see what is inside the container. Having the strainer inside the container keeps my produce fresher, as it is not sitting in water. 


Luxear food containers feature

~ Three different sizes of containers - 2.4 cups, 9.1 cups, and 22.5 cups

~ Adjustable partitions - for storing different fruits

~ Removable colanders - for rinsing and draining 

~ Lids have vents to regulate the flow of air, control the humidity inside, and help produce last longer

~ Lids that stay in place - for easier storage and transportation


What I store in my Luxear food containers

 I love that these containers come in three different sizes. The large container is huge and perfect for my kale and beet greens. Since the medium-sized container has a partition, I use it to store my strawberries and grapes. The smallest container is perfect for cherry tomatoes.

I love that these containers easily stack in the fridge, and when not in use, they all nest together. These containers are just what you need to help your family eat more fruits and veggies.

Gluten Free Dairy Free Tiramisu Using Trader Joes Madeleine Cookies

 This dairy and gluten-free tiramisu is so easy to make. A few simple ingredients and a box of Trader Joe's Gluten-Free Madeleine Cookies are all you need to whip up the best-tasting allergy-friendly tiramisu.


Having to follow a dairy-free and wheat-free diet can be tough, but once you learn how to modify recipes, it gets easier. When you learn how to swap ingredients in your favorite recipes, you will be able to enjoy the best gluten-free desserts that are also dairy-free.

 I have food allergies, and I am allergic to both dairy and wheat. Eating something with dairy or wheat in it causes me to have a severe asthma attack, so I avoid these foods. I have been unable to eat wheat or dairy for the past 7 years, and it can be tough when it comes to eating desserts. For the most part, I am able to find good substitutes for my favorite desserts, but for the ones that I can't, I make them at home.

The one dessert that I have yet to find in stores that is both gluten-free and dairy-free is tiramisu. Many times, I have looked up recipes for making gluten-free and dairy-free tiramisu, but was frustrated at how hard it was to make gluten-free Lady Finger Cookies. So I never attempted to make tiramisu. 

Then I discovered Trader Joe's Gluten-Free Madeleine Cookies

It was after my son's birthday when I had a craving for tiramisu. My son chose a regular store-bought tiramisu for his birthday cake, and it brought back memories of when I was able to enjoy this delicious dessert. I decided that I was going to finally make a tiramisu that was both dairy-free and gluten-free. 

 I again looked at recipes and realized that this dessert was basically layers of cream and cake-like cookies. I then had an ah-ha moment and wondered if the gluten-free madeleine cookies from Trader Joe's would work as a gluten-free substitute for the Lady Finger Cookies.

 I bought a box of gluten-free madeleine cookies and decided to make a single-serving tiramisu with the cookies. I would have made a bigger tiramisu dessert, but there are only 6 cookies in the box. The frustration of following a gluten-free diet is paying more for gluten-free food.

The Best Birthday Dessert

I decided to make this dessert for my birthday as a special gluten-free treat. I gathered up all the ingredients and made sure to place the coconut cream in the fridge the night before my birthday. While this dessert is super easy to make, you have to chill the can of coconut cream and chill the dessert for several hours before you can enjoy it.


Ingredients Needed 

~  Trader Joe's Gluten-Free Madeleine Cookies

~ Canned Coconut Cream, unsweetened

~ Powder Sugar

~ Cold Brew Coffee

~ Cocoa Powder

~ Cumulus Dark Chocolate Syrup


How to Make Cold Brew Coffee In Minutes

Tiramisu has a rich flavor of espresso coffee, and a typical recipe uses cold coffee. So I decided to use my Cumulus At Home Cold Brew Coffee Maker to make a glass of cold brew espresso for this dessert. I knew that cold brew coffee would give my tiramisu an amazing flavor. 

So, I placed a decaf coffee capsule into the Cumulus machine and within minutes, I had a glass of the best cold brew coffee. I love how this cold brew coffee maker chills the water to make authentic cold brew coffee, not hot coffee that you make into cold coffee.

The Cumulus cold brew coffee maker makes three distinct brews perfectly chilled, at the touch of a button. From cold brew coffee to nitro cold brew to cold espresso, this is a coffee machine that you need to buy.

A Super-Easy To Assemble Recipe 

This dairy-free tiramisu is super easy to make. A few simple steps are all it takes to make this gluten-free dessert. From taking the gluten-free cookies out of the package to making the creamy filling to assembling the dairy-free dessert, it is so easy to make this delicious dessert. Just follow these 6 easy steps.

 1. Make the creamy filling

 2. Dip the cookies into the cold brew coffee

 3. Place cookies in the dish

 4. Spoon the creamy filling over the cookies

 5. Repeat steps 2, 3, and 4

 6. Dust with cocoa powder


Tips you need to know

~ Use a small dish as this is a one-serving recipe. Each layer of the dessert will use three cookies, so select your dish that fits the cookies with a little bit of space.

~ Chill the coconut cream for at least 24 hours. Then drain the liquid from the can and just use the hard part.

~ Dip the madeleine cookies one at a time and quickly in the coffee. They will become soggy and fall apart if in the coffee too long.

~ Sift the cocoa powder over the top of the dessert.

~ The dessert must be chilled for at least 4 hours before enjoying.

The best tiramisu for those with food allergies

This tiramisu is perfect for those with food allergies. It contains no wheat, dairy, soy, or nuts. It is a love-at-first-bite dessert. From the espresso-soaked cookies to the creamy filling to the cocoa powder on top, it is so delicious. 

This tiramisu is a generous-sized serving for one, so it can be shared. As someone who has food allergies and can not eat traditional desserts made with wheat and dairy, I like to savor this dessert and only eat half of it at a time.
