If you have my second cookbook, and you’ve made my Coyote Cookie Bars, then you may suffer from the same problem I do: Eating all the raw cookie dough 🙂 Last time I made them I had to eat some of the dough (as usual) and it got me thinking… this would make a great…
Desserts Without Compromise, by Ricki Heller, gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, egg-free
Today I’m really excited to be offering a giveaway for my friend, Ricki. You may know her by her terrific site, Diet Dessert & Dogs. Ricki and I have a similar approach to recipes. We both use lots of nuts and seeds, and we have a shared love of stevia 😀 Ricki has offered to…
gluten-free at Martino’s Pizzeria, Lafayette, CO
We went to Martino’s for gluten-free pizza today. Despite Zoe’s decision to wear short sleeves, it was a very cold, kind of overcast day. Not exactly typical for the area, but a nice change. (Yesterday it was so warm and sunny that I didn’t even need a coat on my walk.) We don’t get television…
Gluten Free Chicken Pot Pie Pockets
I had some leftover chicken that I needed to use, and I thought a pot pie pocket sounded really good. We used to love pot pies before we went gluten-free, and like my gluten free chicken nuggets / strips, we haven’t eaten pot pie in ages. I can still picture us in the kitchen of our…
Spinach Artichoke Pocket Pies
I set out to make spinach artichoke calzones this afternoon. I made some a couple days ago, but I wanted to make a few changes to the crust. These came out amazing, and so much better than the first try (which wasn’t bad), but they also didn’t come out as calzones. They came out as…
Gluten-free Chicken Nuggets with Honey Mustard Dressing
The other day I came across my first handwritten recipe book. It’s really cute. I covered a small blank sketchbook with pages from a cooking magazine and Mod Podged over the top to protect it. Then I made tabs for sections like bread, chicken, and casserole. Most of the recipes came from my mom—things she…
Chocolate Date Frosting
Once in a while it hits me… the craving for a slice of chocolate cake =) I’ve always been crazy for chocolate cake. And believe it or not, I think the cakes I make now (that I’m gluten-free) are even better than the ones I use to eat many years ago. As it usually goes…
Gluten-free Gingerbread Cookies
As you may know if you follow my blog, I’ve been recreating Scandinavian cookies to be gluten-free, casein-free, and refined sugar-free. I’m half Danish, and we like to incorporate as many traditions into our Christmas holiday as possible. First I made Thumbprint Cookies, and lots of you tried them and loved them. Then I had…
Vanilla Shake (vegan, dairy-free, refined sugar-free)
Sometimes I want to get my protein quickly and easily. And sometimes it’s not about protein, it’s about me just wanting a smoothie =) I think I lived on smoothies as a child and teen. Either for health reasons or not, there’s no better way than this vanilla shake. When I first saw hemp…
Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes
Don’t these mock mashed potatoes look amazing? They are =) I got the idea from my friend, Elana. You can see her recipe here. Although I do eat white potatoes once in a while, I don’t like to eat them constantly. But to have “mashed potatoes” more often sounds like a good idea to me….
