Gentle Vegetable Broth

Gentle Vegetable Broth

This recipe came about one evening when I needed a very simple vegetable broth to use as a light soup for matzo balls. I had leeks, carrots, and dill in the refrigerator so that’s what I used. And since I needed it fast, I used my Instant Pot to pressure cook the ingredients in water. …

Vegetable Pad Thai {grain free}

Vegtable Pad Thai

My son tipped me off to kholrabi noodles a few months ago, but it wasn’t until I was near a Trader Joe’s that I decided it was time to try them as an alternative to other vegetable pad thai noodles I’ve used, like zucchini, shredded cabbage, and carrots. It’s gluten and grain free, but it’s …

Carrot Cake {almond & coconut flour}

May 1, 2021 by Erica 11 Comments

In case you need to justify eating cake for breakfast, here goes… This recipe is sweet but not too sweet. It’s naturally sweetened with carrots, ground cinnamon, and maple syrup or honey. The creamy cheese frosting can also offer a probiotic boost to your day. The frosting doesn’t require much sweetener because the tanginess  balances …
