Butternut squash is the quintessential Fall comfort food to me. I love the silky texture when its cooked, the rich buttery flavor, and of course the vibrant orange hue. Butternut squash, along with a lot of the other members in the gourd family, are low in fat and high in fiber. That bright orange color… Read more »
I made a trial Thanksgiving dinner the other night and am so happy with the recipe I came up with for this Roasted Butternut Squash with Maple Sage Brown Butter. Try saying that 5 times fast! I love candied yams, but since starting the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, gave up potatoes along with the grains. As… Read more »
I wanted to try ice cream with almond milk, since almonds are full of great nutrients and also yield a much lower fat and calorie content. The result was my Dairy Free Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream – a delectable treat – but one that has a slightly more icy consistency than the higher fat… Read more »
These “fries” are actually not fried at all. I tried them both ways, and much preferred the baked version. Very surprising considering my love for french fries! They are super easy to make and are a great snack or appetizer. Serve them hot with a side of warm marinara sauce or dipping sauce of your… Read more »
My sister sent a Halloween care package for my son and instead of candy included a few of his favorite Plum Organic baby food packets. She sent the pumpkin banana flavor which were delicious! It gave me an idea to make an adult version for my husband and I, and the little man actually liked… Read more »
I’m willing to accept my disease and the dietary changes needed to keep it under control, but I’m not ready to give up the foods I love like this Roasted Pumpkin Soup and the years of memories that go with them! Every year, my mom would have a Halloween party before trick-or-treating. She would serve… Read more »
I love an easy shake that I can use as a meal replacement in the morning if I’m short on time, or as a snack in the afternoon when I can’t make it to dinnertime. I especially love it when it involves my two favorite super foods: flax and raw cacao. I hope you all… Read more »
Homemade Crock Pot Applesauce is a dish my whole family loves! It’s apple season and our farmer’s market is overflowing with the fruit in all different shapes, sizes and colors. It’s funny, but I look forward to apple season so that I can chat with “the apple man.” I’m ashamed to say that I don’t… Read more »
As I mentioned in my Trail Mix post, I’ve started soaking and dehydrating my nuts prior to eating them. You don’t have to soak them if you don’t want to, but buy raw nuts either way. These nuts are a great snack and are Paleo and SCD friendly.
It’s coming to the end of barbecue season which is a double edge sword. On one hand, I will miss the ease of throwing meat and veggies on the grill. Especially at the end of a long day! Grilled artichokes with a gluten-free remoulade sauce has been on constant rotation over here. But on the… Read more »
This dish was created out of leftovers. And laziness. It was a Saturday and I put off going to the store all day, so when it came time for dinner, I found myself in a pickle. We’ve been trying to save money by not going out, so I rummaged through the fridge and pulled out… Read more »
I came across a recipe on CookingLight.com for a grilled peach salad that is to die for! The spicy nuances of the arugula pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the balsamic dressing. I can’t claim this recipe as my own, except that I changed the peaches to pears and added pine nuts. Here’s the link… Read more »
I love when these guys come back in season. It’s so nice to have a pasta alternative as a grain-free foodie. It has a pretty mild taste so it goes great underneath a pungent tomato sauce, but can also hold its own with just a little olive oil or butter and seasonings. Here’s a little… Read more »
Have I mentioned how much I love Fall? I’m sure I have, because I come from a family who is obsessed with the holidays. Most people are ready to skip on to the Winter holidays (or linger in the Summer sun), but I love this time of the year and wish it would last longer!… Read more »
The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook By Elana Amsterdam When I was first diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and told that I should stop eating gluten, I didn’t even know what gluten was! After a lot of research on the subject and countless hours scowering blogs and websites for new recipes, I ended up with about 100… Read more »
