Pan-fried Haddock
My apologies in advance to those of you with fish and shellfish allergies, but I’m from Maine originally, and I love, love seafood. Although I have three confirmed shellfish allergies (crab, scallops, and clams), and one additional positive scratch test in the elimination/challenge confirmation process (lobster, I better not be allergic), I only appear to…

Summer Strawberry Spinach Salad
So far this summer in New Hampshire, we’ve had sweltering heat interspersed with rainy cool weather. Given the quick changes, it’s been hard to grocery shop effectively — who knows when it’s going to be way too hot to cook? Part of my solution has been to buy things that I can cook ahead, sometime…

15 Minute Salsa
Since I also cannot buy salsa during this whole elimination torture thing (most have celery and onion, which are two no-no’s at the moment), I whipped this up so I’d have something to eat at my book group, since I’d gotten “regular” allergen-filled food for everyone else. I wasn’t going for culinary genius, but just…

Lazy Summer Classic Smoothies: Creamsicle
It’s summer. It’s too hot to cook, but you need a mid-afternoon snack to get you through until dinner. Or it’s breakfast time but it’s 90 degrees in your apartment and food seems, well, heavy. There is a super simple solution to this cooking dilemma: Smoothies, people, smoothies. I go through smoothie phases. I make…

Taco Beef for Tacos, Salads, and Nachos

I’m not good at eating the same thing all the time. And I love spice. I wanted something different to eat. Something that had…

Cashew-Chocolate Pudding Popsicles
When we were trying to think up something festive for this holiday week, we considered that ice cream seemed the best way to go. July 4th is a barbeque holiday, yes, (though why independence and charred tubes of mystery meat are so closely inter-related I will never understand), but we’ve covered barbeque pretty well up…

Red Lentil Dal Burger
I LOVE dal. It’s almost a perfect food — cheap, easy to make, adaptable, tasty… But it can be difficult, like so many other things, to order out at a restaurant with allergies. Dal is one of those dishes that seems to have a thousand and one “family recipes” so you never know what you…

Hot Italian Sausage Burgers with Peppers and Onions
As we’ve previously discussed, since it’s summer, we need things to grill outside, which means burgers. I made this burger because buying Italian sausage can be a tricky thing now. Sometimes I can get some that’s allergy free and sometimes I can’t. Also, I developed this recipe before the positive result on the allergy scratch…
