Greek yogurt is like cheesecake to me: it’s tart, sweet, thick, and creamy. The bonus is that yogurt is rich in probiotics and healthy fat. Drizzle in some honey, add some preserves or fruit, freeze, and serve. Consume in a bowl or a waffle cone for a healthy version of, what I consider, cheesecake ice …
Parmesan Cauliflower Tots
Cauliflower is great as a low-carb substitute, especially with potato-inspired recipes. These Parmesan cauliflower tots make for a great low-carb snack or side dish. This recipe, like many of my recipes, falls under a variety of low-carb lifestyles, including Keto, SCD, and Paleo. It’s not a coincidence that they overlap—this is a common focus these …

Rustic Chicken Parmigiana {quick & easy}
I often turn leftovers and frozen vegetables into a meal using tomato sauce and Parmesan cheese. I usually use frozen peas, carrots, broccoli, and left-over protein such as rotissarie chicken or salmon. I add tomato sauce to the mixture, heat it up, sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top, and eat. This recipe resembles that technique. I’ve …
Matzo Ball Soup {grain-free, nut-free}
Here’s a nut-free, grain-free, gluten-free (and on and on free!) version of matzo ball soup. It’s fairly simple and easy to make, given that it’s made up of chicken broth, herbs, and matzo balls. And it’s easy to make it vegetarian—just swap out the chicken broth for vegetable broth and the butter for oil. Matzo …
Eggs Benedict {grain-free}
Eggs benedict is probably one of the most decadent egg dishes around, and it’s easy to make grain-free using my English muffin recipe. It does require a bit of timing and orchestration of steps, but it’s so rewarding. And it doesn’t take that long to make. I’ve divided the recipe into numbered steps to make it …
Sweet & Sour Meatballs {grain-free}
I’ve learned over the years to celebrate as much as possible. The little triumphs as well as the big ones. And I welcome the opportunity to learn and grow from the bumps, roadblocks, and crashes. It all makes life brighter and more fulfilling. Here’s a recipe to share with a crowd, bring to a party, …
Sandwich Rolls {almond flour}
I’m calling these sandwich rolls, but feel free to use them in any way you’d like. They make great buns and are equally good as toast and french toast. You probably already know what you’re going to do with them, however here are a few ideas that I’ve enjoyed so far… slicing them in half …
Almond & Coconut Flour Pancakes
Way back when I first whipped up a batch of pancakes using coconut flour, they seemed pretty fluffy to me. I was grateful for something close to what I wanted. That was then. The trick to getting thick and fluffy pancakes is to add something acidic, like yogurt, to react with the baking soda. The reaction …
No-Corn Cornbread {almond & coconut flour}
I’ve never done this before, but I’m going to try it this year—cornbread dressing. But first I’ll need to bake a grain-free, gluten-free cornbread. I thought a little longer than usual about how to title this post. Like the mashed potato posts, the title “Cornbread” is somewhat misleading. I’m not trying to fool myself or …
