Homemade Lachmagine Recipe- Syrian Mini Meat Pizzas- With Gluten Free and Vegan Options
I first heard of lachmagine, Syrian mini meat pizzas, quite a few years ago, but didn’t make them often, because, quite frankly, meat is expensive round these parts. However, the few times I did make them, I really enjoyed them. Of course, now we’re gluten free in our household, so the standard recipe wouldn’t work […]
Pressure Cooker Herbed Potato Risotto Recipe- Vegan, Easy, Gluten Free
We’ve had some beautiful weather for the past little while, but now the temperature has started dropping again and the next week we’re predicted to have wintry weather again (just in time for spring, I know!).

Homemade Lacto-Fermented Sprouted Hummus Recipe- Probiotic and More Digestible! (Non Dairy)
You know the ditty “beans, beans, they’re good for your heart?” Well… There are many reasons why beans are known to cause flatulence, in large part because they’re not so digestible due to their phytic acid, among other things. However, I like serving legumes because they’re cheap proteins, and my family enjoys hummus… so I […]
Homemade Orangeade Recipe- Including Refined Sugar Free Option
There are some foods and drinks that have certain seasonal associations with them. Take spinach- you probably picture a crisp spinach salad with mangoes to be a light summer dish. But you know what? Spinach is a cold weather crop… and mangoes a hot weather crop. If you eat seasonally, a spinach and mango salad […]
Homemade Tahini or Peanut Butter Waffles Recipe- Gluten Free, Vegan, Refined Sugar Free Options
I grew up with a waffle maker at home, so I never really had the experience of buying waffles. Waffles are just another amazing breakfast to have at home, that can be made cheaply or less cheaply, healthily or less healthily… and I am really grateful for my waffle maker that I have. I have […]
Honey Mustard Roasted Fennel Recipe- Gluten Free, Refined Sugar Free, Vegan, GAPS Legal Options
Yesterday when I was at the farmer’s market, I wasn’t able to find such a large selection of cheap, reduced rack produce. The one thing I did manage to find a lot of was fennel bulbs- I came home with a huge shopping bag full, at only 25 cents a pound. Fennel, also called anise, […]
Gluten Free, Vegan, Refined Sugar Free Sugar Cookies and Hamentaschen Recipe
The other night I was in the mood of eating something, but wasn’t sure what. All I knew is that nothing that I had in the house appealed to me. Not the fruit, not proteins, not carbs… and then it hit me! I want junk! (The funniest thing happened, actually. I went over to Mike […]
Making Mallow Mayonnaise- Wild Mayonnaise From Foraged Ingredients
I love making things from scratch. For many reasons, top among them that they’re cheaper and healthier. But I also get a kick out of knowing how to do things that others don’t, like I’m part of this club that knows all these secrets that used to be a way of life, but now people […]
Delicious Carob Muffins Recipe- Vegan, Gluten Free and Refined Sugar Free Options- Allergy Friendly
We’re in the middle of a snow day here, and while a big part of what I want to do is just huddle under a blanket and watch a movie, another big part of me is in the mood of baking, since eating delicious baked goods right out of the oven, while amazing any time, […]
Hungarian Noodles and Cabbage Recipe- Kraut Pletzel, Haluski, Kaposztas Kocka- Gluten Free, Vegan Options
Ever have a recipe whose name gets lost in translation? My (great) Grandma Betty was Hungarian, and she used to cook a lot of traditional Hungarian dishes. My dad learned a lot of his recipes from her, which he made for us growing up (in addition to his General Tso, seitan, sake, and other very […]
