Chili Cornbread Skillet Recipe- Gluten Free, Vegan, and Refined Sugar Free Options
Sometimes my husband looks at the mess in the kitchen, and he says “Where’d all these dishes come from? You just made a one pot meal!” Well, sometimes those one pot meals can use a lot of dishes, even if in the end you have just one dish to serve on the table… This is […]
Easy Vegan Cheese Sauce Recipe- Gluten Free, Grain Free
I think other than various bread recipes, vegan cheese sauce is probably the food I have the most recipe variations for on my blog. This is number five. See, the thing is- when you just are buying cheese, you have a variety of cheeses to choose from, and you can pick the one you like […]
Asian Inspired Charred Eggplant Salad Recipe- Baba Ghanoush Take Off
Did I ever mention before that eggplants are cheap locally, and I’m always trying to find new ways to use them? Oh yea- probably about a million times already… Are you bored of hearing about eggplant? Probably not as bored as I sometimes get of eggplant. Yes, I do love eggplant, but I get bored […]
Djaj wa Rishta- Syrian Chicken and Spaghetti- Gluten Free Option
Unfortunately pasta dishes are known to not be the most photogenic. Oh well, at least it is delicious! My family members sometimes “complain” that since I make such a large variety of foods, and am always experimenting in the kitchen, when there is one food I make that they really like, they have no idea […]
Gluten Free Dairy Free Moussaka- Greek Eggplant Casserole- With Vegan and Paleo Options
Though I love eggplant, my family, unfortunately, are not such fans. I mean, they’ll eat it if I make it in something that is otherwise tasty, other than my one pickier eater. But eggplant is often on sale for very cheap round these parts, and I don’t want to not be able to take advantage […]
How to Make a Homemade Firetruck Birthday Cake- Without All That Processed Food Junk
A great birthday cake can truly transform a birthday party from fun to fantastic. If, like myself, you try to stay away from processed foods, especially margarine/shortening and food coloring, you might feel bad, thinking your kids will be suffering, since they can’t have those “super cool” cakes that others have at their birthday parties. […]
Bakso- Indonesian Meatball Soup Recipe- Gluten Free and Delicious!
I have this fascination with foreign cultures. If my life turned out differently than it did (like if I had more money, and no kids), I could definitely see myself being a world traveler, since I love learning about and experiencing foreign cultures. In fact, I was just discussing with Mike today, that whenever I […]
No Boil Gluten Free Vegan Mac and Cheese- With Butternut Squash
Nothing says comfort food like a big plate of mac and cheese. Being gluten free and dairy free and without access to vegan soy free cheeses like Daiya, it’s not so easy to make yummy mac and cheese. It usually involves a bunch of steps, and a bunch of pots, which I don’t always have […]
Ground Beef Baked Kofta Kebabs Recipe- Restaurant Quality, Gluten Free, Egg Free, Paleo and GAPS Legal
The picture doesn’t do it justice! If I had to pick one thing that this blog is probably known for (other than being run by a homeschooling, home-birthing, placenta “eating”, “hippy” mama), its probably my complex and complicated charts and calculations in which I compare what is actually cheaper, like which cut of meat is […]
Decadent Chocolate Cake Recipe- With Gluten Free, Vegan, and Refined Sugar Free Options
I recently bought coconut sugar in bulk cheaply (or as cheap as I can get it anyhow), so I finally have enough available to be able to be using it as my staple sweetener. While I do try to use jaggery syrup and date paste (my cheapest non refined sweeteners available to me) in as […]
