Turmeric tea is one of my favorite things to drink when the weather turns cool. It’s a nice substitute for some teas that I usually drink, one that I welcome when the temperatures fall and the snow comes. Ayurveda is the holistic lifestyle of yoga. The principles of Ayurveda lie in respecting the natural change […]

Paleo Almond Flour Crackers, Simple & Quick
Once again, I have to thank KC Thorson of KC’s Kafe for sharing another delicious recipe when we got together for lunch the other day. KC has written several cookbooks, I’d highly recommend them for anyone venturing into gluten-free cooking. A diet full of gluten can make you feel “Foggy” When I first […]

Paleo Almond Flour Muffins
The past year and a half I’ve been experimenting with recipes that are gluten-free. My initial attempts were with rice, tapioca and potato flours, all of which I know are high in carbohydrates, in addition to concerns about arsenic in our rice supply (even organic). Paleo diets eliminate all grains. Now, don’t worry, I’m not […]
Spiced Nuts with Black Pepper Oil
Since I’ve eliminated gluten and dairy products, I’ve been eating more nuts to sustain me. Most nuts (prepared properly) are filled with nutrients, omega-3 fatty acids and fiber. This recipe is made with pecans (which contain over 19 vitamins and minerals) and peanuts (which are really considered legumes). I use Jungle peanuts from Wilderness Family […]
GF-Cranberry & Orange Scones
Enjoy the taste and texture of classic scones without the wheat flour. I have to admit I have not been baking as much as I used to since I’ve been adjusting to a gluten-free diet. It’s been an adjustment, and slowly I’m adding recipes like this to our family favorites. You can adjust the […]
Raw Carrot, Beet and Walnut Salad
Veggies can be fun! Springtime, Summer and Fall are great seasons to find more and more fresh, local produce that might not have been around during the winter season. Most communities have carrots and beets available year round. We have many food allergies in our family, so our mealtimes are often a buffet of choices […]

Kick the Soda Habit This natural champagne is a great alternative to sugary soda. If you’re trying to kick the soda habit, this is a simple trade you can try to wean yourself off the carbonated beverages. No added sugars and nothing artificial! The holidays are often a time of overindulgence with plenty of celebrating, […]
Savory Butternut Squash Soup with Oregano and Lemon
My friend KC Thor of KC’s Kafe developed this recipe a year ago for an episode on her What’s Cookin show. I’ve long awaited the new squash harvest this year and this is now my absolute favorite butternut squash soup recipe. It’s an amazing savory blend of flavors that is super easy to put together. I’ll be […]
Gluten-Free Tabouli
Tabouli goes gluten-free when you use quinoa in place of the wheat grains. One of my favorite vegetarian dishes, traditional tabouli, is made with bulgur wheat. Since becoming gluten-free I’ve made this version with quinoa (a gluten-free grain) which has a texture similar to bulgur. Quinoa also has more protein than any other grain! […]
