Grilling two tenderloins at once saves time—you can enjoy one for dinner and repurpose the other in meals throughout the week, such as my White Pork Chili (page 90) and Pork Stir-Fry (page 182).

Like many kids these days, Asher is currently attending a nut-free elementary school, so my previous bread recipes are no longer useful for his packed lunches. This nut-free sandwich bread is one of only three recipes in this book that utilize yeast, an ingredient you don’t see very often in the AAG kitchen (see page 9). It’s not essential, but oh my word, does it deliver an authentic, bready taste.

Store-bought granola bars almost always contain oats or nuts. Using a combination of seeds and coconut, these bars are both grain- and nut-free. The chocolate chips are a favorite for both me and my kids, but you could also use raisins or any other dried fruit.

What is an Easter brunch, or any spring celebration for that matter, without a classic carrot cake? I adore the trio of cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg in this cake and also love the shredded coconut and raisins. If you use the cream cheese frosting, this cake is also tree nut–free.

These fluffy waffles are a special weekend treat for us. The first time I made them, my husband Ryan exclaimed that they were the closest things to the real deal I had ever created. They have been a staple in our house for a couple of years, and he would never let it be any other way!

Jicama may seem like a strange ingredient to add to this dish, but it provides a slight crunch similar to that of water chestnuts or bamboo shoots and adds a mildly sweet flavor. Serve this stew over any of the cauliflower rice recipes (pages 218–219).

I could eat these sweet potatoes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and I'm known for picking at them right from the tray before they even hit the table.

Every body is unique, but it is thankfully fairly uncommon for people with nut allergies to experience symptoms from consuming coconut products. Playing off the intense cinnamon flavor of snickerdoodles, these tree nut-free cupcakes are made with coconut flour, speckled with cinnamon, and topped with a marshmallow-like frosting.

Thanksgiving just doesn’t feel the same without this creamy casserole, so I have re-created it Against all Grain–style, without the heavy cream, MSG, or gluten. I could eat the mushroom sauce in this dish by the spoonful.

While we often use lettuce wraps in grain-free cuisine, sometimes it is just too flimsy and won’t soak up the juicy sauces that accompany the slow-cooked meat, like with this pulled barbecue chicken. Although there are a lot of ingredients, you will probably have most of them in your pantry, and all you have to do is throw them all in the pot and forget about it—cooking doesn’t get better than this if you ask me!
*For Whole30, omit buns and substitute dates for sweeteners

I don’t cook lamb that often, and Easter is one of the few special times in the year when we enjoy it. This leg of lamb has a beautiful bouquet of lavender and rosemary and can be served with a fragrant spiced shallot jam. My favorite part though, is the crispy browned sweet potatoes and parsnips that have cooked slowly in the juices of the lamb.

This chicken melts in your mouth and smells incredible when you walk in the house after a long day at work or running kids to and from activities. Serve in butter lettuce cups with all of your favorite taco fixings or wrapped in my Crepes (see recipe on page 302).

I love a good pizza, but sometimes making the crust from scratch is too time-consuming. This simple pasta combines all my favorite pizza flavors in a one-pot meal. I love to throw kale or other power greens into this dish, where they are concealed from my son, Asher, by the delicious pepperoni and sauce.

Growing up in Colorado, I spent a lot of time playing out in the snow. Afterward, when I went inside, I would always warm up with a mug of hot cocoa. Those days it was straight from the packet with boiling water, but this dairy-free version uses a mixture of rich dark chocolate and cocoa powder to make a thick drinking chocolate. We drink it every year now while we decorate the house for Christmas, or visit the mountains so Asher can see snow. He prefers his without the peppermint, so I ladle his out before adding it. Top with gooey Marshmallows (page 306), or add coffee to turn this into a peppermint mocha (see Tidbits).

While commercial chicken broths and stocks are convenient, some of their ingredients aren’t necessarily convenient to your health. Homemade stocks incorporate healing elements like gelatin, which are generally lost when food is processed. I make my broth with a whole chicken so that the flavor from both the bones and the meat seeps into the broth. Make a large batch and freeze it in pints or quarts so you have some on hand whenever you need it.

An exceptional mashed potato substitute when you’re looking to cut down on starches, mashed cauliflower will complement all of your favorite comfort-food dishes without leaving you feeling heavy—or guilty—afterward. When roasted, garlic becomes smooth and buttery. I love to add it to my mash for extra flavor and richness.

What child’s party is complete without the quintessential peanut butter and jelly sandwich? We use almond butter as our nut butter of choice, but sunflower seed butter or pecan butter will work as well. Beware, the parents will grab for these just as eagerly as the kiddos.

The meatballs you are probably used to having on game days contain bread crumbs and include white sugar or high-fructose corn syrup in the sauce. This grain-free version uses almond meal or coconut flour to bind the meatballs and natural sweeteners to flavor the sauce. Keep the meatballs warm in a slow cooker throughout the day so your guests can enjoy them until the game ends.
