Making A Homemade Fancy Chocolate Gift Box
There’s a friend I have that helps me out a whole lot, and I wanted to show my appreciation to her for everything she does. I thought to make her a really nice gift basket, and include in it a box of homemade fancy chocolates. She’s a blog reader, so I really hope she doesn’t […]
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 […]
Homemade French Dressing Recipe- Entirely From Scratch- Refined Sugar Free, Vegan, and Delicious!
I feel like such a food nerd sometimes, when getting a recipe right gets me so giddy I feel like doing a little dance. But I must admit, that’s how I felt after making this recipe today. I have a guest coming for supper who likes “normal” food, so I’d decided to make a simple […]
Raw Chocolate Sprouted Buckwheat Granola Recipe- Nut Free, Refined Sugar Free, Vegan Option, Gluten Free, Oat Free
I’ve written before about my issue with breakfast- I don’t necessarily have energy to be cooking in the morning (sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t), so often I just end up relying on bought cereal- generally rice crispies- and milk or non dairy milk for our breakfast. The thing is- bought cereal isn’t so cheap, […]
Super Simple Bread- Gluten Free and Wheat Flour Recipes- Vegan and Sugar Free
I had another one of those long days today. Great, but long. I was out of the house and on my feet from early this morning, and only came back after dark. I almost left you without a post for today, but then decided to maybe just post something simple. And what better than this […]
