(Whole Food) Spooky Snacks
These were super easy to make, and my kids thought they were hilarious instead of really spooky. They’re winners because they actually ate them! See for yourself. I made these snacks in about 10 minutes. The carrots take the longest, but had I done them in assembly-line fashion rather than each individual one at a … Read more
Cinnamon Pecan Sticky Rolls
These are yummmmmmmy. I would not call them “healthful” due to the yeast and sugar, but they are a nice treat for a special occasion or holiday, and definitely better than something processed from the store or bakery. I have tried numerous sticky roll recipes, and they all, inevitably, FLOP. They’ve all be edible, but … Read more
Grain-Free Cupcakes and Frosting
I made these cupcakes about a year ago for the first time, and recently revisited the recipe, which was as good as I had remembered. Why I never posted it here is beyond me, because they are sinful and delicious, and worth sharing! Grain-free Chocolate Cupcakes: 1/2 cup coconut flour 1 tbs almond flour 1/2 … Read more
Cheesy Spinach/Squash Casserole
Goose says this is the best thing EVER, which, in my book, means it’s blog-worthy. (Well, that and the 5 helpings she ate.) Lil Pea, on the other hand, does not eat her food “mixed up” and wouldn’t touch it. We have found it’s best to serve her a “deconstructed” dinner, and since she likes … Read more
Mexican Casserole
Trying to make good tasting food with what we have on hand and meet everyone’s various dietary restrictions is no easy feat! I’m out of eggs, which are really a staple in our house, but luckily I know how to conform to all sorts of dietary challenges when cooking and baking. Another issue we are … Read more
Bread
This was a paleo bread recipe that I modified so that it would be a little fluffier and sweeter. You can certainly make bread with flax, eggs, nuts, and little else, but since we still consume grains, I wanted something with a bit of a texture similar to the breads we have known in our … Read more
Skillet Bread
This is another take on cornbread, since I can’t eat corn. It’s the best one I have come up with so far, and really easy. I’m going to play around with it some more and soak the grains next time, so that it is WAP-friendly as well. You can make this plain or add in … Read more
Chocolate Biscotti
Just as I am toying with the idea of giving up coffee for awhile, I make biscotti. Well, I have a good excuse though! I was reading another gluten-free blog this morning and the author is writing a cookbook. She is in the stage of asking people to test her recipes, and one of them … Read more
Pepper Steak
An easy meal that doesn’t use up a ton of pots and pans to prepare. Pepper Steak: * 1 lb sirloin steak , sliced very thin * 2 cups broth (we used leftover golden mushroom soup) * 2 tbs wheat free tamari * 1/2 c spaghetti sauce * 1 tbs garlic powder * 5 grinds … Read more
