This is an adaptation of this great gluten-free/dairy-free blueberry muffin recipe: Gluten-Free Blueberry Muffins. Using almond flour rather than any grains and lots of eggs gives these a custardy texture, but with enough firmness to hold together. I’m becoming a big fan of grain-free baked goods without too much added sweetener. These use a little […]

Paleo Tortillas and Chicken Soft Tacos
I was so happy to find this Simple Paleo Tortillas recipe. I doubled it and it worked like a charm. They are really most like crepes, and stood up to all the filling I stuffed in, as you’ll see in a photo below. It’s great to have a grain-free alternative to most of the tortillas […]
Beef Soup
This was my quest for a nutrient-rich soup with meat I could leave in it, more than broth, less than stew, nothing too spicy. I used this Beef Bone Broth recipe as a basis. You can follow that as a template and see the tweaks I made below. The first photo is the soup the day […]
Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Blueberry Muffins
Love this great, fast recipe with just a couple of tweaks: Gluten-Free Blueberry Muffins. They’re made with almond flour, so are totally grain-free. The first change I made was to add 1/2 cup of a nut milk (used almond-coconut blend, unsweetened). The first time I made these, they turned out very dry and crumbling, like scones, […]
Homemade Chocolate Chip Granola Bars
Lots of benefits to making your own granola bars. If you have a kid eating them in bulk, this will probably save some money. Also, making them yourself allows you to control the sugar content. I used this recipe: Chewy Chocolate Chip Granola Bars. These turned out more crispy and cookie-like than chewy, but good. […]
Paleo Twix
So, gluten-free, dairy-free Twix… where do I begin? This is a great reincarnation of an irresistible candy bar that some of my gluten-free/dairy-free friends may pine for post-dietary restrictions. These were fun to make and use only six ingredients. I was drawn in by photos on Pinterest that turned out much better than mine. Enticing. Here’s […]
Homemade Tater Tots
Best tater tots I’ve ever had. Takes some effort, but well worth it. And supposedly they freeze well, so if you make a bunch, you’re set. Here is the fantastic, amazing recipe from Damn Delicious: Homemade Tater Tots. I used 3 pounds of potatoes instead of the 2 the recipe called for and cooked them […]
Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
There are six ingredients. You will have peanut butter cookies in 15 minutes (that’s prep time AND baking time). What could go wrong? Basically, nothing. This recipe via PBS is just about foolproof. So fast, and so good: Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies. Great recipe, so I will just direct you to the link rather than […]
White Sweet Potato Fries
New Jersey White sweet potatoes are somewhat of a rarity, at least in my experience. I’ve found them in two stores, ever, so I buy them whenever I see them in stock. Why? They seem to be the perfect blend of white potato and sweet potato. They are a variety of sweet potato, but taste […]
Taco Sloppy Joes
Made these at the request of our 4-year-old. One of his current favorite foods is “spicy meat” — ground beef sautéed with onions and salsa. I find the “spicy meat” to be a very versatile thing to have around. I like it as a main/protein in lower carb meals with some vegetable sides… see below […]
