Vanilla Maple Cinnamon Nut Crunch (Gluten, Grain, Dairy Free)
Crispy, crunchy, sweet, and oh-so-satisfying, this Vanilla Maple Cinnamon Nut Crunch is so good you’ll have to fight the urge to eat your weight in nuts in one sitting! The warm vanilla maple flavor is perfectly offset with the spiciness of Vietnamese cinnamon (my favorite kind of cinnamon). This makes the perfect mid-day snack or… Continue Reading
How to Make Creamy Coconut Milk Yogurt (No Yogurt Maker Required)
I have been on a serious coconut yogurt kick recently. It all started when my friend Starlene from GAPS Diet Journey sent me a little bit of the yogurt starter that she uses when she posted her great recipe for coconut milk yogurt. It was instant love from my first batch. The rich, creamy, thick, and slightly… Continue Reading
Pumpkin Spice Bread Recipe (gluten, grain, dairy, sugar free)

Coconut Cream Truffles Recipe (Sugar, Gluten, Dairy, Grain Free)

However, since starting out on my healing journey, many things are off limits for me, like sugar (even “non” sugar like stevia) and chocolate. Once evening this summer, I needed something sweet. A little treat to tide me over. This… Continue Reading

Oh hello! I am sure you thought that my fermenting had fallen off the face of the earth. I am ashamed to admit it, but I haven’t posted a new fermenting recipe since the first of September. Eek. The reasons for this are many, but I’m not going to go into that here. Let’s just… Continue Reading
Zucchini Fries – Gluten Free and Grain Free
OK. It’s summer. Many people I know have gardens and they have zucchini coming out of their ears. While I don’t have any growing in my garden, I have been eating my fill of local organic zucchini and I am loving it! It is one of my favorite summertime vegetables. But, I am always trying to figure… Continue Reading
52 Weeks of Bad A** Bacteria – Week 29 – Lactofermented Garlic and Dill Carrots (Updated For the Pickl-It)
For week 21, I shared my recipe for Dilly Carrots with you. That recipe was done in a regular Fido jar, which resulted in a much better tasting ferment than I ever got with a Mason jar. I have since been given a couple of Pickl-It jars and have revised the recipe for those types… Continue Reading
