posted on January 30, 2010 by
I got so excited when I found these the other day at Whole Foods! Grass-Fed Beef Hot Dogs by Applegate Farms! And they were only $4.99! And they are really really good! I cannot recall exactly but I think these actually cost a little bit less than the Nathan’s Famous (now gluten-free) hot dogs that […]

Did anyone else happen to see the Dr. Oz show yesterday? Dr. Oz had a segment titled “Three Dangerous Food Toxins,” where he highlighted the levels of Mercury, Bisphenol-A (or BPA) and pesticides in our foods. The show cited a recent study that estimates, “90% of us have measurable levels of BPA in our blood […]

Sausage and Bean Ragout

I made this “soup” the other night and was very impressed, especially by how my children gobbled it up even with the “green” stuff (spinach) in it. Sam totally embraces new foods and he really likes knowing when a food is good for him. Luke on the other hand, is a tougher nut to crack. […]
Better Batter Gluten-Free Flour Tortillas
posted on January 18, 2010 by
I’ve already posted one recipe for gluten-free flour tortillas (from Living Without Magazine) that are really good, only the day after they are made.
