Broccoli “Potato” Soup

I’ve been on a bit of a cauliflower kick lately.  I never used to touch the stuff.  Now I love it.  And this past week (yes, during Christmas!) I’ve been “attempting” the Intro GAPS diet so I’ve been eating lots of soups.  I seem to have slipped off the wagon the past couple of days…

Christmas Pancakes

A couple weeks ago I decided to try something different with the regular Saturday morning pancakes my son normally eats for breakfast.  I think it all started when my husband said that his grandmother used to make pancakes in all sort of different shapes, like Micky Mouse and such. From there, I thought of using…

Ground Turkey and Apple Stuffed Butternut Squash Recipe

CIMG1570

I shop regularly at the Common Market, the local food coop in Frederick, Maryland.  Last week they had a new recipe out which looked really good so I grabbed a copy.  I made some adjustments due to time and diet, but I really loved how this recipe turned out.  And Elijah even said, “this is…

Blueberry Muffin Cake

It’s blueberry season here in Maryland and Elijah, my mom and I ended up going picking this past weekend.  We had a blast picking 8 lbs in less than an hour and Elijah got to eat all he wanted.  The farm we went to was called Frog Eye Farm and they had over 200 blueberry…

Homemade Almond Flour Tortillas (gluten-free, grain-free, sugar-free)

A while back I posted recipes for both gluten-free tortillas made with brown rice flour and grain-free tortillas made with almond flour.  I hadn’t taken pictures of any of my tortillas though so I didn’t have any to share.  I finally made a point of photographing my grain-free tortillas so that you can see what…

Vanilla Bean Coconut Macaroons

Time for dessert!  I was craving coconut macaroons this week so I ended up making some.  I adapted the recipe in Nourishing Traditions and ended up with a yummy starch-free version (the NT recipe calls for arrowroot). I was also out of vanilla so I used some real vanilla bean that my sister had given…

Grain-free and Gluten-free Tortillas, nature made

Okay, so if you’re not a cabbage fan, please don’t run off too quickly.  I used to pass this beautiful vegetable by without a glance because I didn’t know how versatile and delicious it is.  Now that my choices are much more limited, I have been forced to eat more veggies and be more creative…
