As we speak, my husband is devouring the blueberry parfait in this photograph, and I keep hearing comments like, “Oh, this is so good.” And getting my meat-and-cake-eating-man to eat anything fresh and uncooked means it must be true! 🙂 What’s also really nice about this blueberry parfait (besides how healthy it is) is that…
Stuffed Red Peppers gluten-free, dairy-free
The other night, one of the little girls in the neighborhood was over for dinner, and these were the only ingredients left in my fridge 🙂 Luckily, these stuffed red peppers turned out so delicious that all 3 little girls, as well as Andy and I, went back for more. Well, okay, one little girl…
Creamy Dairy-Free, Egg-free Ranch Salad Dressing
Lately I’ve been craving creamy ranch salad dressing. Of course, it had to be healthy, gluten-free, and dairy-free. Then I was peering into my fridge the other day, trying to decide what to eat, when I saw left-over cooked white beans… see where I’m going with this? 🙂 Haha! I know I’m getting predictable with…
Lemon Poppy Seed Gluten-Free Donuts
When I read that Carol, of Simply Gluten-Free, was hosting this month’s Go Ahead Honey, It’s Gluten-free! I knew it was going to be fun. Carol has such a great sense of humor, and of course her theme gave me a laugh: Manly Food! So I should explain that when it comes to my man,…

After eating black bean cakes like Lauren’s chocolate bean cake (from Healthy Indulgences), I was hungry for a vanilla version. However, the only white bean cake recipes I found included a cup of flour or a cup of pumpkin, so I had to come up with a totally new recipe, avoiding those ingredients. I am so…
how to make almond milk video
Forgot to say, make sure you strain the soaked almonds and fill your blender with fresh water, up to the top cup line (32 oz). The soaking water contains all the enzyme inhibitors, so you wouldn’t want to drink it. Use the wet almond meal for cookies—pages 150 & 156 in my The Spunky Coconut…

Almond & Buckwheat Gluten Free Biscuits
About every 5 days I make almond milk with a cup of almonds (measured when dry). Then I fill the blender up to the top line with purified water, blend and strain through a nut milk bag or cheesecloth. Sometimes I make two gallons at once, and freeze one (using glass jugs), so that I…
