Finally, an omelette substitute! I was beginning to think this wasn’t possible without using tofu. I’m very happy with the result and even more happy with the ingredients. They are made with chickpea flour (AKA Gram flour, AKA garbanzo bean flour) which is high in protein (6 grams per 1/4 cup), fiber, and iron. One serving will fill you up! Continue reading
This is such a great healthy snack that can be a filling breakfast, or even dessert. It’s also packed with nutrition – antioxidants, fiber, protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and more. Because chia seeds are so absorbent (holding more than 10x their weight in liquid) adding just a little liquid will cause them to gel up and thicken into a pudding style consistency quickly. Because chia seeds don’t really have a flavor of their own you can get really creative on what you mix them with. Continue reading
I’m a huge fan of this cheese, and always have some in my fridge. It works well as a dip (especially with some seasoning mixed in), or put right on noodles to make some mac and cheese. You can also make it extra creamy with more water and add some garlic and you have a nice creamy aioli. I clearly need to stop cooking so late at night, or learn to take pictures during the day, but don’t let the bad food photography get in the way of trying this amazing cheese! Continue reading
I discovered this amazing bread on keepinitkind.com. What a find! I think this is easily going to be my new favorite bread recipe.

But no-no folks, this is gluten, yeast, egg, dairy free amazingness! Continue reading

But a great place to start. Continue reading
Gluten free, yeast free, egg free goodness! This is one of my favorite breads of all time.

This recipe was inspired by some fish taco recipes I’ve seen only I was out of corn tortillas so I decided to try it plated. It turned out amazing. I was debating if the cauliflower rice needed more salt when I turned to my fiance to ask, he had completely finished his portion lol. I love the flavor of the onions with the fish, it adds a great sweetness which is complimented by the creaminess of the avocado. Continue reading
I’m a big fan of green smoothies, they are a great way to quick and easy nutrients that fill you up.

I am loving my new Vitamix blender! I just made my first pesto and I can’t wait to make another it was so incredibly simple and oh sooo yummy! I got the idea after pruning my herb garden and realizing I had a ton of cuban oregano, sweet basil and columnar basil clippings. What to do with all these clipping???? Pesto!
