We aren’t a dairy-free household, although it often crosses my mind to take a break from dairy products for a season. I just love cheese too much. And butter. And ice cream. And puddings. I’m not afraid to try something new (usually), and while searching for recipes to use coconut milk, I came across a recipe for Chia Seed Pudding and decided to give it a try. Besides, making pudding… Continue Reading
Baked Soaked Oatmeal: Healthy and Versatile!
One of the first “real food” recipes I tried was a baked, soaked oatmeal. It was the Apple Cinnamon Baked Soaked Oatmeal found on GNOWFGLINS. It quickly became a favorite! It is really easy to prepare, as long as you remember to soak your oats the night before. We don’t like ours too sour so I always rinse them, but it’s not necessary. I’ve used sourdough starter, yogurt, apple cider… Continue Reading

The poster of the recipe says they are like Starbucks, but honestly it’s been so long since I’ve had one I can’t remember well enough what they taste like to say how true that claim is.

I’m considering exploring that possibility here, but just haven’t been able to bring myself to that point yet. Going… Continue Reading
Millet Meatballs (and Why We Went Gluten Free)(NOT THM)
I have to admit I have not planned well for meals this week…I’ve gotten lazy over the last several days weeks months to be honest. And I surely wasn’t prepared for planning gluten free meals! What a blessing kind and generous friends are, let me tell you. Each day, I’m kind of “flying by the seat of my pants” and trying to pray about what to make, but it is so easy… Continue Reading
Attempted Homicide Biscuits
Have you heard people refer to white flour as White Death Flour? That’s how I’ve come to think of it…but, my family is still rather fond of that stuff. They eat what’s in the house…and since I’m in charge of all things food, well, they don’t eat a lot of stuff made with that White Death Flour – at least not at home. And, truth be told, every now and… Continue Reading
