Have you ever made a THM recipe you saw posted on Facebook and it turned out to be a flop, wasting precious ingredients? Or even worse, turns out to be off plan? Or what about those “substitutions” shared on Pinterest that end in disaster. Nailed it…not! Ain’t nobody got time for that, right? Read on to learn about a fabulous Facebook group with tried and true tested Trim Healthy Mama recipes just for you.
If you’re a busy THM, on a budget, or a newbie trying to learn the plan, that is the LAST thing you want to happen…right? Right. Even if you’re a seasoned pro, you don’t want that to happen!
If only there was a Facebook group run by seasoned, dedicated THM bloggers that only posted tried and true recipes they have tested themselves. And had those recipes organized according to fuel and recipe types. And had allergy friendly recipes.
Wouldn’t that just be amazing?
Well, I’ve got some BIG news for you!
There IS such a group! It’s the THM Blogger Test Kitchen group on Facebook!
One caveat though…please read below:
While the THM Blogger Test Kitchen is not an “official” THM group, we are a group of seasoned, dedicated THM bloggers who only post tried and true recipes we have made and tested ourselves. And, we’ve organized them by fuel and recipe type. And we have allergy friendly recipes.
You know, being a part of this kind of makes me feel like a fairy godmother of sorts. PRANG your wish is granted!
For your safety, we need to approve each member. We get them approved as soon as possible but please know that if there are a lot of member requests it may cause a delay. We do this to protect our members and appreciate your understanding.
What makes the THM Blogger Test Kitchen group different from all the other THM groups?
We’re set up a bit differently than other groups in order to preserve the accuracy of the information and recipes shared in the group.
There’s a lot of well-meaning people on Facebook and Pinterest that don’t always share accurate information. That can slow down progress on your THM journey!
We don’t want that, of course, so to be sure that only plan-approved recipes are shared, the admins are the only ones posting recipes.
There’s a great group of THM bloggers as admins (some who are actual admins for official THM groups), and I’m sure you’ll recognize at least some of them:
- Sarah Criddle, from Mrs. Criddle’s Kitchen
- Jennifer Griffin from A Home With Purpose
- Darcie Jackson from Darcie’s Dish
- Gwen Brown from Gwen’s Nest
- Tina Roberts from Anointed With Oil of Joy
- Judy Witherby from Wonderfully Made and Dearly Loved
- Jaque McHenry from Run Amok Mama
- Teresia Hulsey from Nana’s Little Kitchen
- Briana Thomas from Briana Thomas
- Kristen Hay from Joyful Jane
- Robin Brookshire from Mama Shire
- Jennifer Mason from Working at Homeschool
- Jacinda Vandenberg from Northern Nester
- Sarah Montana from My Montana Kitchen
- Keri Bucci from My Table of Three
- Taryn Scarfone from Joy filled Eats
- Chrissy Benoit from Chrissy Benoit in Love
- Lisa Yvonne from Graceful Abandon
- Cate Hoepner from Grace Filled Homemaking
- And me!
Our recipes are organized in Albums in the photo section and are clearly marked as to what fuel type (or types) they are to make it easy for you to find what you need. Right now we have over 27 albums organized by recipe and/or fuel type from which to choose.
You’ll find albums for S Desserts, Shakes and Smoothies, Nut Free, Grain Free, Dairy Free, E Meals and more!

Thank you so much for sharing. I am trying to start this wonderful lifestyle change and am feeling a bit over whelmed. I cannot waste money on things that do not work or do not taste good. I appreciate all the hard work each of you has done to help the rest of us 🙂

You’re so welcome! I have a tight budget too and don’t like to waste ingredients on things that don’t work. Hope you find our group helpful! Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Hi Dawn–I’m craving a coffee cake. Is this possible on THM?
dawnyoder says
Hi Judith!
That is absolutely possible! I don’t have any coffee cake recipes (I should…I really love coffee. And cake. 😉 ) If you have the THM Cookbook, there’s a Glazed Crumb Cake recipe on page 305. Jennifer Griffen from A Home With Purpose has Pumpkin Cream Cheese Coffee Cake, Almond Cream Cheese Coffee Cake, Rhonda Sue has a more classic version here, Briana Thomas has a single-serving Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake, and a Pecan Streusel Coffee Cake. Check out Pinterest too, just always be mindful of the ingredients and make sure they are on plan or you can substitute on-plan ingredients. Hope that helps, and thanks so much for stopping by!
