Like many of us who have been diagnosed with celiac disease or even food allergies, Sandi from Sandi’s Allergy Free Recipes spent much of her life battling symptoms but never really understood what those symptoms meant until she became very, very ill. Today, Sandi shares one of her favorite grab-and-go desserts. Easy to make and many suggestions […]
Sweet Potato Souffle (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Sugar-Free, Paleo, ACD)
September 18, 2013 By 8 Comments
I love this time of the year! As summer draws to a close, fall produce intermingles with the last of the summer harvest. It is a great time to incorporate your favorite year-round vegetables in new and exciting ways. It is also the time that everyone seems to be gearing up for all things pumpkin. […]
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
August 7, 2013 By 7 Comments
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, […]
Healthy Lunchbox 2012: Slowcooker Paleo Eggplant Parmesan
August 29, 2012 By 11 Comments
You’ve heard me (as well as other bloggers) talk about planned-overs and how they make for great lunches. Well, sometimes lunch needs to be a prequel. Sometimes a meal is just too good to wait until dinner… When cooked overnight in a crock and you have a thermos ready to help keep it warm… Well, let’s […]
Healthy Lunchbox 2012: Peachy Coconut Streusel Muffins
August 15, 2012 By 14 Comments
When most people think of muffins, they think high-carb, grain-filled, low-nutritional value item. The last thing I want to feed my children is anything that meets that type of description. The great thing about grain-free cooking is that a majority of flours (nut, seed and coconut) are naturally high in fabulous fiber, protein and nutrients. […]
Roasted Red Pepper Paleo Hummus
August 8, 2012 By 21 Comments
I must admit that, when giving up legumes, hummus was not high on my list of things I would miss. Don’t get me wrong…I love a good hummus. It’s just not one of those things that was on our regular shopping list. In fact, previously, I might purchase hummus once a year and I might […]

This week on FoodNetwork Summer Fest, food and garden bloggers are joining up to share their favorite tomato recipes. I don’t know about the other Summer Fest bloggers, but for me this was no easy task. You see, tomatoes are a staple in our home. Quartered tomatoes are the perfect side with our morning breakfast.

Growing Up Isn’t So Bad, Peter Pan Squash Spiced Oven Fries
July 25, 2012 By 26 Comments
Today on FoodNetwork Summer Fest, food and garden bloggers are joining up to highlight the vibrant staple: Summer Squash. Oddly enough, the title “Summer Squash” has less to do with the time a squash is grown or harvested and more to do with the sustainability of a squash. You see, summer squash like zucchini, yellow […]
Plum Pickin’ Pineapple Jam
July 18, 2012 By 12 Comments
This time of the year our pantry and refrigerator is overloaded with all kinds of delicious produce. Most recently, with the help of Bountiful Baskets we have received an overabundance of fruits like cherries, peaches, nectarines, plums and pineapples. So much so that even my large family cannot keep up. What’s a girl to do? […]
