Squash and Sprout Rice Platter
I started working on this particular dish about a year ago when I discovered this branch of Brussels sprouts at a Trader Joe’s and had to buy it. How do you not buy that? I made a lot of different Brussels sprouts recipes to use them all up, but most of them involved roasting the…

Brown Rice “Couscous” Veggie Bowl
Generally those of us with multiple food allergies can rely on very little in the way of packaged or convenience foods. Given that both Denise and I also work full-time, sometimes feeding oneself on a serious time budget becomes, well, problematic. When I still ate wheat, couscous was something I always had on hand because…

Margarita Tropical Fruit Salad
So, last weekend it snowed in New Hampshire, and this weekend it’s been 95°F all weekend. Hilarious. I don’t handle the heat well, if at all, nor do I handle the crazy freaking changes well.

Therefore, I like my…

When Denise and I sat down to discuss things we needed to learn to make, things we could not longer eat “normal” versions of, one of the things that popped to the top of the list was what my college roommate called “bar food” — fried foods that tasted great and had little or no…

Kiss Me if You Dare Onion Dip
If I’m completely honest, that mayo or sour cream based French onion dip (one package of dip mix plus a carton of sour cream, I think?) wasn’t something I made all that often or bought all that often in my pre-allergen days. But I liked it at parties, and maybe that was enough for me…

Ranch Dip/Dressing Using Earth Balance Mindful Mayo
After we perfected the Ranch Dip using a Cashew Base (see today’s other post) we found a recipe for ranch using the Earth Balance Mindful Mayo. We fiddled with the recipe because liked the flavor profile we had developed for the Ranch Dip Using a Cashew Base better. The result is pretty awesome. We both…
