Easy Peasy Homemade Pizza Recipe — Gluten Free and Regular Options Using #TheRecipe

Sumac Onion Salad Recipe and a Delicious Shawarma Dinner From Scratch
Sumac was one of the first things I learned how to forage (as a kid at Six Flags, we used to pick the sumac berries while waiting on line for the rides), and I love it as a spice. Sumac and onion chicken is really amazing, as well as zaatar spice mix containing sumac. If […]
Extreme Cooking From Scratch Marathon
Today was cold and rainy, and when the weather is like that, I am usually tempted to cuddle up under a blanket with a good book or a movie. But sometimes, when the weather gets like this, I am tempted to cook and cook and cook and not stop, and that’s what happened today. Today […]
Healthy Sweet Potato or Carrot Muffins or Cake Recipe, Gluten Free and Vegan
I’ve been on the lookout for healthy baked goods lately, and since I recently scored a bunch of super cheap sweet potatoes and just stocked up on jaggery, I thought to make some gluten free sweet potato muffins sweetened with jaggery.

Cooking Dinner With No Inspiration
People think of me as a foodie, as someone who is always chock full of ideas and inspiration for cooking my family and myself delicious meals. I’ll admit, lately it has happened to me many times that I’ve had literally zero inspiration, that I can’t even begin to come up with ideas of what to […]
Paleo Vegan Almond Flour Biscotti Recipe
I’m not the easiest person to make desserts for, especially when I’m trying to stick to the paleo diet 100% (desserts are my downfall) instead of just gluten free, and even more so when I’m trying to minimize how many carbohydrates I’m eating. It doesn’t make it any easier that most paleo desserts are either […]

Eggplants are in season round these parts, making them one of the more frugal vegetables I can currently buy. This salad is one of my favorite ways to eat eggplant.
