Sometimes the easiest recipes are easily forgotten about. Actually, we never even ate Sloppy Joes growing up. The few times I remember eating them is while visiting my Grandparents, & they came straight out of the can. Yep, Manwich. I just read the Michael Pollan quote, “Don’t eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn’t recognize as food,” [...]
Eggplant Parmesan (gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan)
January 11, 2013 · By · Leave a Comment
The last few weeks have been filled with some drastic food changes. It deserves it’s very own post, but the short version is our 9 month old has lots of food intolerances. She is still exclusively breastfeeding, so January 1st I took those foods out of my diet. It’s been an interesting adjustment. I had [...]
Cranberry Sauce
November 10, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
Thanksgiving is approaching, which means cranberry sauce season will soon arrive. I’ve tried making fancy sauces & sugar-free sauces, & while they’re very, very good, I like basic so I follow the recipe on the bag. It recommends to boil them for ten minutes, stirring occasionally, but I like to mash them during this time. [...]

This past week was filled with lots of Halloween festivities, especially in Rylee’s classroom. I have to say, I cannot even begin to explain how happy it makes me that their parties, treats, candy, etc. is so very limited in the classroom. Where other parents were making Halloween-themed cupcakes & sweet treats to take in, [...]

Halibut Olympia (dairy-free, gluten-free)
October 14, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
I think one of the hardest foods to give up, since Ry’s original allergy & intolerance diagnosis, is fish. Actually all seafood & shellfish. We live on Kodiak Island, one of the top fishing ports in the nation. We can keep our freezer full of halibut, salmon, cod & more. However, we don’t. It’s also one [...]
Spicy Thai Noodles

We’ve really been enjoying stir-fry’s lately, ever since I found A Taste of Thai rice noodles ‘reduced for quick-sale’ at our local grocery store. We’ve used rice noodles a fair amount in the past, but these ones come with tasty recipes on the back & they also have a Garlic Chili Sauce that is absolutely [...]

Noodles with Veggies & Almond Butter Sauce
March 29, 2012 · By · 4 Comments
Each week we get our CSA (community-supported agriculture) order of fresh, organic produce from Full Circle Farms. They always include a couple of recipes that sound delicious, but often need big modifications, of course. This week there was one for Linguine with Snow Peas, Cucumber & Peanut Sauce. It needed a few big changes to [...]
