Thanksgiving Menu and Recipe Roundup- Gluten Free, Egg Free, Low Cost and Healthy
Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I haven’t shared my menu yet! Can’t have that happening! I’m not making everything myself- my mom and I are splitting the work, but we’ve discussed the menu together and here’s what we came up with.

Gluten Free Vegan Pumpkin Pie Recipe- Refined Sugar Free, Soy Free
I just made the most unbelievable pumpkin pie for our Thanksgiving dinner. It was unbelievable in many ways- firstly, it was just really awesome- it’s the reason why I am making the same exact recipe for pumpkin pie as I did last Thanksgiving- if something ain’t broke, don’t change it.

And if you’re wondering why this container says gluten on it… lol… its from back in the day when I bought straight gluten to make seitan, and we stored it in this container. Have you ever heard of ghee before? I hadn’t heard of it until I started getting into eating traditional foods, and ghee […]

Easy Green Buckwheat Porridge Recipe- Crockpot Option, Vegan, Gluten Free
One of the hardest things about being frugal and gluten free is figuring out good, cheap, healthy breakfasts.

Healthy Butternut Squash Pudding Recipe- GAPS Legal, Lower Carb, Vegan
I’ve been pretty good about this whole eating well to try to lose weight and get in shape, but I’ll be honest, the hardest part for me is the social aspect, since so much of the socialization in our culture revolves around food. I regularly go to this mom’s get together at brunch time, and […]

Its funny that, though my mom did most of the cooking in my house when I was a kid, most of my food memories involve my dad and the various things he cooked. Sunday mornings we would all sit around the kitchen table while my dad made something delicious- either pancakes from the New Settlement […]
