Thanksgiving Menu for 2013
I wasn’t going to do a Thanksgiving dinner this year, as my husband is not American, and we don’t live in the US… but after deciding that, I realized that I actually had everything in the house that I would need to make a Thanksgiving dinner, so I figured- why on earth not? Here’s my […]
Dutch Style Meatballs Recipe- Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Egg Free Bitterballen
Dutch meatballs, mustard, gluten free pasta, and veggie salad with homemade sweet and sour dressing I don’t know about you, but when I see pictures of food on the internet, it often inspires me to want to make it and have it at home, even if I’ve never tasted it before, and have no idea […]
Practically Free Soup- And a Zero Waste Kitchen
So last month I did a grocery shopping challenge, tracking every cent I spent, and breaking it down into different categories, and seeing how much we were spending in each area. After that, I challenged myself to do the same this month, only this time, to try to lower our bill by about 100 dollars, […]
Indian Spiced Radish Greens Recipe- Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy Free
I love finding recipes for often discarded food items that other people don’t realize are edible and healthy. I make recipes with cauliflower leaves, have cooked banana peels into chutney, turn watermelon rinds into side dishes, and make delicious dishes from fish scraps and chicken skins. So when I was in the farmer’s market, and […]
Ground Beef Kebabs Recipe- Greek Style- Egg Free, Gluten/Grain Free, Soy Free, GAPS Legal
My kids haven’t been the easiest to feed lately. Every single thing I make for them, they seem to complain about. Even foods that they previously were in love with, they now complain about. It drives me bonkers. I tried making them foods that I thought would entice them, like spaghetti and meatballs (plain meatballs, […]
Mustard Thyme Chicken Recipe- Gluten Free, Grain Free, Sugar Free
I had a bunch of chicken that I wanted to cook up, but wanted something different than my usual random spices that I just throw on. I wanted something flavorful, but without any added sweeteners or processed sauces, etc… I remembered having artichoke once with mustard and thyme, and remembered that mustard with thyme was […]
Flourless Chickpea Blondies Recipe- Egg Free, Refined Sugar Free, Vegan Option
Bean desserts, cakes and cookies made from black beans, navy beans, and chickpeas have taken over the healthy eating bloggosphere. The problem with most of those recipes is that, while they are gluten free and grain free, they tend to be with eggs, and as someone who gets sick from eating eggs, they simply don’t […]
Sweet and Sour Pickled Beets Recipe- Refined Sugar Free
I wanted to apologize for not being so on top of posting on the blog lately. Life has been a little crazy. Last week a few members of my family were sick with a stomach bug, and I ended up bringing Anneliese to the ER, only to be able to avoid getting an IV last […]
Italian Herbed Zucchini Soup Recipe- Vegan, Gluten Free
I had the pleasure of being gifted with a huge amount of zucchinis the other day, and wanted to figure out a good dish to make with them. Then I remembered the time when, as a guest in someone’s house, I was served a delicious herbed zucchini soup. I have no idea what the recipe […]
Lentil Chicken Meatballs Recipe- Gluten Free, Grain Free, Egg Free
My kids have pretty much told me that they will not eat lentils. They might eat them occasionally in a soup, or when I surreptitiously put them in another recipe, and on a rare occasion will eat something with obvious lentils in it, if all the rest of the ingredients combine to form something delicious, […]
