I realize you might be wondering why the heck I am posting a chocolate chip cookie recipe this close to Thanksgiving. Most people close to me in my “real” life are most likely thinking, “Oh, there goes Heidi again, off on an ADD tangent…does she NOT REALIZE what today’s date it is? Where’s the $&@#! […]

posted on November 8, 2010 by
I will be sharing the recipe for the Orzo Stuffed Delicata Squash in a guest post I that will be doing on Thursday, November 11th over at The Gluten Free Homemaker, for Linda’s awesome Squash Fest series. In order to make it though, you will first need to know how to make homemade gluten-free orzo […]
Gluten-Free Chicken Marsala and Dairy-Free Pasta Alfredo
posted on November 5, 2010 by
First thing first. “Alfredo” is probably not the right word for this sauce, at least not in a technical sense because it lacks one of the most important components of a true Alfredo sauce…Parmesan cheese (shhh…it also lacks the butter and heavy cream, but I won’t tell if you won’t tell). 😉 When my husband […]
Gluten Free Halloween
posted on October 30, 2010 by
I pretty much flarped on Halloween this year and haven’t done nearly as much as I typically like to. I think I have had a serious case of “spooky block,” not having artificial colorings to fall back on, LOL! That’s okay though, I will just look back at this as my “deprogramming” year. It’s funny, […]

Update 8/10/2011: I have an updated version of this chicken salad and you can find the full recipe here: The BEST Mayo-Free Chicken Salad. There are also TWO gluten-free, egg-free and soy-free mayos on the market, Soy-Free Veganaise and one by Earth Balance, called Mindful Mayo I’ve been having some trouble in the egg-free, soy-free […]
Dye-Free Lego Cupcakes and a Yummy Earth Lollipop Giveaway
posted on October 24, 2010 by
I have a little secret to share with you. I am a bonafide silicone ice cube tray-aholic! I have so many of these brilliant little gadgets that I am running out of places to store them. I should probably look into renting a storage unit for them…although, I think my husband would shove me in […]
Dye-Free Star Wars Lego Birthday Cake (and a Giveaway Winner)
posted on October 20, 2010 by
Have you ever tried to make a Lego birthday cake without gluten, dairy, eggs, soy and artificial colorings? Let’s just say it’s challenging. The gluten, dairy, soy and artificial colorings are actually a breeze to replace, but eggs are an entirely different matter, they play a very important part in baking! I made 17 different […]
Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free Pop Tarts
posted on October 11, 2010 by
Gluten-Free Pop Tarts, I still can’t believe it (and nevermind the goldfish, it’s a bonafide illness of mine)! 😀 I have attempted homemade gluten-free pop tarts many times over the years using various recipes that call for pie crust. While the end results were always tasty, they were not the Pop Tarts™ I remember from […]
Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Egg-Free Soy-Free French Toast Sticks
posted on October 4, 2010 by
Disclaimer: The actual French Toast that you see in the picture is NOT dairy-free and egg-free. I began this impromptu project late in the evening and I was too tired to make up some homemade dairy-free pancake mix and bake a fresh loaf of vegan bread (especially since I have never made it before)…but the […]
Amy’s Kitchen Gluten Free Burrito Review
posted on September 25, 2010 by
I made an impromptu stop at my favorite local co-op today (La Montanita on Rio Grande Blvd. for my fellow ABQ. peeps) and I hit the jackpot! I have been looking EVERYWHERE for Amy’s new gluten-free burritos and today was the big day! I only found the non-dairy version, but that was just fine by […]
