Ah, stew. That perennial of autumn favorites. My kids are not particularly fond of beef stew and so I’ve been searching for an alternative. Pork chop (thick cut, no bone) were on sale last week, so I bought a large package. The kids were less than impressed with my apple juice infused pork chops and [...]

GFCF Turkey Chili

I am aware that my food picture taking sucks. My apologies. This dish tastes much better than the picture looks! My kids raved about it… well, except Tad, who said it tasted really good except for the beans. He doesn’t like beans. At all. Sean and Skye had second helpings! This is the first chili [...]
GFCF Sunflower Butter Cookies
Posted in casein-free, gluten-free, peanut-free, Yum! on October 9, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
This recipe is a simple variation off a GFCF peanut butter cookie that I can’t take credit for creating. Just about everyone I know seems to make the peanut butter variety. My friend Elizabeth over at Small Town Blessings even posted it a few months ago HERE. The beauty of this recipe is the simplicity. [...]
GFCF Apple Cinnamon Waffles

If your kids are like my kids, they LOVE waffles. They could eat them every meal of every day and never ever get tired of ‘em. However, frozen gluten free waffles are freakin’ EXPENSIVE!! And the mixes aren’t any cheaper. Or better. It was time to come up with a waffle recipe that was as [...]
Potato and Onion Casserole
Posted in casein-free, gluten-free, peanut-free, Yum! on October 8, 2009 | 1 Comment »
This is an excellent side dish. And my favorite kind of recipe – one that is naturally gluten and casein free. No substitutions or using special ingredients. Just basic basic basic!! Eventually, I would love for us to be eating like this all the time, just natural whole foods. It feels so good to feed [...]
GFCF Chicken Fingers
Posted in casein-free, gluten-free, Yum! on October 6, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
My kids are all-American kids with all-American appetites. And one thing they have really been missing is chicken fingers/strips/nuggets… what have you. Yes, they have pre-made frozen ones. But we really haven’t been too impressed with them. And our local grocery stores don’t carry the more edible ones. Sorry, but Ians Allergen Free Chicken Nuggets [...]
Update on 101 things in 1001 days

I realized tonite that I’ve crossed off several more things on my 101 Things in 1001 Days list over the past month, the latest one tonite. It has been a while since I’ve even thought about “the list” and that’s pretty much par for the course with regards to the whole summer. I feel like [...]
GFCF Lasagna
Posted in 101 in 1001, casein-free, gluten-free, Yum! on October 5, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I’ve been meaning/wanting to come up with a lasagna recipe similar to the one I used to make in the old gluten and casein full days of yore. I called it Cheeseburger Lasagna, made it in the crockpot, and probably offended every Italian going back to ancient Rome. It consisted of ground beef, jar spaghetti [...]
GFCF Pumpkin Cookies

My friend, Elizabeth, posted a delicious Pumpkin Bread Cookie recipe and I was inspired to make a GFCF version. At first, I thought I’d just sub in GF all-purpose flour and some rice milk and some CF chocolate chips… and the next thing you know, it’s a totally different recipe!! I still credit her with [...]
Missing In Action

This is my Sean. He’s going to be 8 on Sunday, but he’s still my snuggle-bug. He’s autistic, but very high functioning. He’s atypical in that he’s very snuggly and affectionate. He tells me how much he loves me all the time, and how beautiful I am (ah, how I need to hear that, especially [...]
