Alicha Recipe- Ethiopian Vegetable Stew- Vegan, Paleo, GAPS Option
Last week I made a wonderful Ethiopian feast. In addition to the flat bread and doro wot (chicken stew) and misir wot (red lentil stew) that I made spiced with my homemade spicy berbere spice mix, I also made this delicious vegetable stew, not spicy at all, which everyone in my family loved- from the […]
Miso Glazed Salmon Head Recipe- Cheap and Absolutely Delicious
Oh my gosh. I just had such a scrumptious supper, maybe one of the best I’ve had in a while. The funniest thing about it is that while I thought I was in heaven while eating it, others probably would find the thought of it absolutely revolting. Because the centerpiece of my meal was half […]

Hello y’all! It’s that awesome time of the week, where I, once again, share what frugal things I did this week, hopefully to inspire and give ideas, as well as to share things that I do in my day to day life that don’t necessarily need a whole post to write about each one. This […]
Homemade Mild Berbere Spice Mix- Ethiopian Recipe
If you’ve been reading my blog for some time, you’ll be aware of the fact that I’m very into “ethnic” foods from various cultures around the world, especially cultures where they make low cost, vegan dishes, such as India or Mexico. Ethiopian food is one of those that I love, since it is super low […]
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 […]

Easy Dal Recipe- Vegan and Simple
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 […]
