Dauntless Cake (aka: Super Rich, Warm Chocolate Cake) Grain-Free, Dairy-Free, Paleo, Nut-Free Option Listed

If there is one thing someone could say about all seven people in my home…it is that we are all avid readers.  And book addicts. Maybe that is two things, but they all stem from one source. While my husband and I typically enjoy very different genres, our children always seem to take hold of […]

Momma’s Turkey

Thanksgiving is right around the corner.  Two weeks away. Seriously!?! Where has this year gone?

Sugar-Free Avocado Fudgesicles

I believe the best way to sabotage something like an elimination diet, especially one that you must be on for health reasons, is to forbid yourself the ability to enjoy a treat every now and then. Especially when you are 9. The process of eliminating Candida has not only brought my daughter and I to a […]

Roasted Garlic Baba Ghanouj

Baba Ghanouj (Baba Ghanoush) is a naturally gluten-free, dairy-free Middle Eastern dish that is typically served with pita bread and/or vegetables. In our battle against Candida, I have found that dips and sauces have become more important to our daily routine. First, kids love to dip their food. Last night we had roasted cod fish, […]
