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 …
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 …
Gravy {grain-free}
Here is one of my favorite gravy recipes using a few basic ingredients, and no flour. Yes, no flour. And no grain-free flour or anything else resembling flour. You’ll notice the first ingredient is pan drippings from a roast, usually a turkey or chicken roast. To have pan drippings at a moment’s notice, you have a …
Cream of Mushroom Soup {dairy-free}
I love the earthy flavor of cooked mushrooms. Roasted, sautéed, grilled. They all lead to goodness. Here’s another way to harness the flavor and love of mushrooms—cream of mushroom soup. And it’s dairy-free. I use either cashew cream or cauliflower for the creamy base. The flavor is equally good in both, but for a slightly …
Turkey Meatloaf
I eat meat occasionally, mostly fish and poultry, and mostly from wild sources. It would make my food life complete if could source everything directly from the earth. All this means I get most of my protein from plants, and sometimes fish and poultry. My favorite is roasted chicken, but occasionally I’ll experiment. This meatloaf …
Zucchini Rollatini {dairy-free}
This recipe is great any time of year, but especially when zucchini is in season. There’s 3 recipes all rolled into one here: a very quick, easy marina sauce, cashew ricotta cheese, and finally, the rollatini. You can grill or pan-fry the zucchini strips. And, if it’s hot outside you can get away with baking …

Keep this recipe in your back pocket because it’s easy and you never know when you might need a batch of tomato sauce in a matter of 5 minutes. The key ingredient is a jar or can of crushed tomatoes, a dash of olive oil, and a few herbs. For folks who follow SCD, there …
Raw Berry Cheesecake
I find raw cheesecake one of the easiest cake styles to make. There’s no baking, just soaking of raw cashews and some processing of nuts and in this case, berries. You will need a food processor or high-speed blender to get a creamy consistency. After that, layer all the ingredients in a spring-form pan or pie …
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 …
Spaghetti Pizza Pie
Have you ever made a spaghetti pie? I hadn’t, until now. That’s because now it’s using spaghetti squash. No pasta or pizza dough here. This is not a quick recipe because the baking time is close to an hour. But it is easy, and it serves as breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or even snack. Make …
Thai Pineapple Shrimp Curry {quick & easy}
In the middle of the Arizona desert, steps from majestic rock formations and red dirt trails, I had a nourishing dish at a Thai restaurant. And then, when I got home, I made it again and again. It’s a very simple curry with tons of flavor, fresh ingredients, and it’s quick and easy to make. …
Green Velvet Soup {quick & easy}
It’s a fact. I feel best eating green food. And, yeah, I’m an organic girl whenever possible. Spending the extra money on organic food is my donation to the planet. But do what you can afford, because all veggies and fruit are good. I get a kick out of creating and consuming quick and easy …
