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. 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 …
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 …
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 …

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 …
Pineapple Fried Rice
Grain-free pineapple fried rice is a quick and easy single-pan meal, and makes great leftovers too. You just need to do some prep work dicing vegetables in order to have all the ingredients ready for this quick stir-fry. I prefer shrimp or chicken paired with pineapple, but feel free to add your protein of choice, …
Roasted Radishes
I highly recommend roasting radishes and then dipping them in a creamy ranch dressing, ketchup, or your favorite salad dressing. Even if you’re not a fan of raw radishes, you may be surprised at how different they taste when they’re roasted. They taste very much like small roasted potatoes. Radishes are a root vegetable that …

Egg Drop Soup {quick & easy}
If you’re a lover of egg drop soup, I think you’ll enjoy this flavorful rendition. It’s easy to pull together, and uses some key basic ingredients: toasted sesame oil, green onions, cilantro leaves, eggs, chicken broth, and chicken. It’s high in protein, has flavorful greens, mushrooms, and broth. That said, it’s also easy to adjust …
Pickled Carrots {quick & easy}
You’ll be amazed how easy it is to pickle carrots (or other veggies for that matter!), and how good they are. The play of sweet carrot and sour juice is a great combination, plus the added benefit of vitamin A, K, B6, and potassium. Pickling is a way to preserve food by letting it sit …
