This deep dish pizza recipe uses both almond and coconut flour to build a sturdy crust with a crunch around the edges. It reminds me of a cornmeal pizza crust that I’ve had on a few occasions at an artisan pizza restaurant, way back (over 20 years) when I lived in the Boston area. I …
Thai Sauce
I’d like to introduce you to my favorite Thai sauce, and in my opinion the best Thai sauce. It’s packed with vitamin C, folate, and potassium, and uses fresh ingredients you may already have on hand. I avoid soy sauce and other processed ingredients in favor of natural juices, sweeteners, nut butter, and salt. I …
Strawberry Ripple Frozen Yogurt
Here’s my rendition of strawberry ripple frozen yogurt. The addition of lemon and salt make this lip-smacking good. I usually prefer straight, sweet ice cream or frozen yogurt that tastes like ice cream exclusively, however this frozen yogurt tastes like strawberry ice cream. And is it me or does it seem like strawberries are available …
Cashew Waffles {grain free}
I was able to find a few pounds of fresh raw cashews before my local market’s stock began to thin out due to COVID-19. Besides using the cashews for dairy-free ricotta cheese, I’ve been making these grain-free cashew waffles and I thought it was about time I share the recipe with you. I toss all …
Egg Salad
Egg salad is another really good reason to keep a couple of boiled eggs in your refrigerator. You can have a quick breakfast or snack by eating a boiled egg, or you can create this egg salad for something a bit more flavorful and filling. It’s also easy to fill in a container with egg …
Zucchini Lasagna {grain free}
There are many ways to make lasagna, including the traditional way. My first grain-free lasagna recipe is my Mexican Lasagna, which uses tortillas as noodles. This recipe for Zucchini Lasagna is a simple take on grain-free lasagna using zucchini slices as noodles. I make it dairy free by using my recipe for ricotta cheese using …
Roasted Asparagus
Roasting asparagus is quick and easy, concentrates the flavors, and makes the bite tender. I go basic, with oil and salt, but feel free to use alternatives like lemon and oil and maybe a pinch of pepper. I use a high heat to roast but you can probably lower the heat a bit and roast …
Ricotta Cheese {dairy free}
I love this quick and easy recipe for ricotta cheese for it’s simplicity, texture, and flavor. Besides using it in dishes that call for ricotta cheese, I spread it on crackers, bread, and use it in place of cheese in just about everything. It makes it so easy for me to be dairy free. I …
Pumpkin Muffins {low carb}
This is an updated version of my pumpkin muffin recipe from my cookbook, Everyday Keto Baking. This recipe is based on my original pumpkin muffin recipe that uses maple syrup or honey as a sweetener, so to make this low carb I replaced the sweetener with a low-carb sweetener and adjusted a few ingredients to …
Immune Juice Boost
Are you looking for a tasty way to give your body a boost? Do you own a juicer? Here’s my current favorite immune-boosting juice. After being seriously run down last fall I consulted a doctor to find ways to strengthen my immune system. She had a very simple list for me: take zinc and a lot …
Bagels {grain free}
I’m so excited to share this recipe for grain-free, gluten-free, SCD bagels using almond flour! I’ve played around quite a bit with almond flour, cashew flour, and coconut flour, and making a bagel with them is an interesting endeavor. While not chewy like bagels made with all purpose flour, there are a few things I …
Raspberry Beet Ice Cream {dairy-free}
Raspberry beet ice cream is a treat that is sweetened only by fruits you use to make it. You do want to plan ahead a bit by freezing the very ripe bananas, raspberries, and milk. Like my other banana-powered ice creams, this is most like ice cream when all the ingredients are fully frozen, but you …
