Gluten-Free Pancakes on a Stick

I think I have seriously gone over the edge with this one! A friend of mine casually mentioned to me a few weeks ago that her daughter likes to eat “Pancakes on a Stick” for breakfast. I had no idea what they were, but of course I found myself with a new gluten-free challenge! 😀 […]

Gluten-Free Event in Asheville, NC

I wanted to let everyone know about an upcoming event in Asheville, NC with Tiffany Janes. Tiffany is known as the gluten-free warrior of Atlanta and is considered the most discriminating gluten-free diner around! She works as a gluten free consultant in the Atlanta area and was recently given a Top Health Blogger award for […]

Mixes from the Heartland Product Review and Giveaway!!

This is rather exciting for me, because even I, as much as I love to cook, NEED a break every now and again! 🙂 First, a little info on Mixes from the Heartland: Allergen Facts No eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, oats, barley, rye, or wheat in the factory. No bean flours are used in […]

Gluten-Free “Lunchables”

I’ve succumbed to the almighty Lunchables.  I STRONGLY dislike those things, and not necessarily because they are one of the most unhealthy “foods” marketed to children, but because my son feels like an “oddball” because he cannot have one! I love GoPicnic’s Gluten-Free Ready-Eat-Meals (and so does Sam), but he recently confided in me that […]

Gluten-Free “Boxed” Mac and Cheese

Okay, so it’s not really “Boxed” Mac and Cheese but “Bagged” Mac and Cheese just sounds weird! 😀 I have been making my own “Kraft-like” GF Mac and Cheese for a long time now, mostly because I do not care for the texture of the pasta in the GF store-bought Mac and Cheese.  The other […]

Gluten-Free Chex Mix

I realize this is probably a no-brainer, but it actually just dawned on me not too long ago when Sam needed some Chex Mix for his “Friday Fun Snack,” that I could make my own gluten-free version!  So just in case it has not occurred to someone else, I thought I would post the recipe […]

Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Naturally Gluten-Free! I also made a few other tweaks to accommodate dairy and egg allergies, which also happened to bump up the nutritional content! I have no idea where this recipe came from, my aunt sent it to me several years ago and I just stumbled across it tucked away in a file. There is […]

Homemade Gluten-Free, Allergen-Friendly Chewy Bagels

Gluten Free bagels that are naturally corn-free, dairy/casein-free, soy-free and can easily be made egg-free! 🙂 This is one of those things that most people probably don’t think they will ever have to make in their lives, and why would you?  Bagels are are very easy to obtain.  Well, unless you are gluten-free or suffer […]

That Is So Cool!!

Just for Fun

Mark Hyman, M.D.

This is a really interesting video.  Mark Hyman, M.D. wrote a book about a year ago called The UltraMind Solution that was endorsed by Dr. Oz (on the cover of my edition).  If you follow the “even if only 50% of this is true” rule, this is a very illuminating video (and book) and worthy […]
