HERBED RADISH BUTTER

Radish butter is one of those recipes that’s so simple it’s almost a ‘no recipe’ kind of recipe: radishes, butter whipped with herbs, salt, pepper. I told you. With three simple ingredients you can turn the lowly, nearly forgotten radish, into something worthy of spreading on a baguette – or […]

GRAIN-FREE VEGETARIAN NOODLES

The Professor and I have been eating grain-free for nearly 3 years now; it’s been a game-changer in how we feel and has helped reduce the inflammation in our bodies. When we transitioned from gluten-free meals to grain-free meals, we initially made small changes – but over time, these changes […]

GLUTEN-FREE FRESH CORN CAKES WITH GUACAMOLE

These little corn cakes are quite tasty – we’ve made them during the winter months with frozen corn but I have to say, made with fresh, just-picked, milky sweet corn, a little splash of kefir for a bit of tang, a little heat from green chilies and topped with a […]

GLUTEN FREE APPLE CHAI SPICED SCONES

We’re in the throws of winter here in the Midwest – although we managed to dodge big blizzard, ‘Jonas’, of 2016 and for that I am grateful (I mean seriously, 40-inches of snow in 24 hours?!!). However, there is something to be said about being snowbound while the white stuff tumbles […]
