Homemade Chocolate Pudding Recipe- With Chocolate Peanut Butter Pudding Option- Vegan, Refined Sugar Free, and Gluten Free
Who doesn’t like chocolate pudding? In my family, the answer is no one, and from the looks on the grocery store shelves, it seems to be very popular with the locals here as well. I like chocolate pudding, but I don’t like the ingredients in most chocolate pudding recipes, and the other recipes, my body […]
Healthy Homemade Strawberry Jelly/Gummy Candies- Refined Sugar Free, Gluten Free
On Friday, I had the exciting enjoyment of emptying out my freezer, because it wasn’t working and things were starting to defrost- fortunately only just a drop defrosted, and not an entire freezer full like happened the last time. I’d left the freezer open a drop (something blocked the door) and some stuff defrosted enough […]
Chicken Piccata Recipe- Gluten Free and Dairy Free Options (With Vegan Suggestions)
I had never heard of chicken piccata until I was searching for recipes to make with the capers that I foraged, but it instantly appealed to me- capers, chicken and lemon sounded like a match made in heaven. Most versions of chicken piccata are made with gluten and dairy, as it is typically dredged in flour and […]
Yummy Apple Muffins Recipe- With Gluten Free, Refined Sugar Free, Vegan Options
Got any apples that need to be used up? The other day I wanted to make a sweet baked good, but I was short on most ingredients that seem to be in the standard muffin recipes. I did have a lot of apples, though, and figured they’d make a great muffin. I wasn’t disappointed. I […]

I sometimes feel that on this blog, I post my amazing special recipes that taste superb and are a real treat to eat, but tend to leave out the recipes for things that are relatively basic, that I make all the time. This dal recipe- Indian style lentil curry, is one of those- I make […]
Frugal Accomplishments This Week
Hi there every one! It’s time for the weekly round up, where I tell you just what I did to save money this week. As you can see, it was a rather skimpy one- I didn’t really do so many frugal things, or rather, at least not as many as I typically do. But didn’t […]
Beef Maqlooba Recipe- (Upside Down Middle Eastern Rice) Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Egg Free
My family isn’t the biggest eggplant fans. This is annoying, because eggplant is a veggie that I can get relatively cheaply most of the time, and I very often get eggplant for free. And of course, most of the time I cook up that eggplant, my kids refuse to eat it. Which is a bummer. […]
Spiced Pumpkin Muffins Recipe- Gluten Free, Vegan, Refined Sugar Free Options
Remember how I mentioned that I like healthy baked goods for breakfast that taste yummy, are low cost, and are filled with nutrition?

Golden Rice with Raisins, Peas, and Walnuts Recipe- Gluten Free, Vegan, Sugar Free
Last night I went to a get together for the ladies in my community, a meet and greet type of event. As part of the “get to know you” event, people were asked to bring in a food that had something to do with their favorite color. I love blue the most of all colors, […]
