No-Bake Cookies Revisited — with a Nut-free Variation
This was one of my favorites when I was a kid, and it’s also really fast if you were supposed to bring something to a potluck/holiday party/family dinner and maybe you didn’t get it together because the holiday season is so crazy and if you have to find time to do one more thing you’re…

At Last Gluten-Free Brownies
So the year before I got my allergy diagnoses, I spent time perfecting a brownie recipe. Which was, of course, based on wheat flours, and which did not, of course, translate well to gluten-free. It was my first attempt at my own gluten-free recipe — I replaced the flour in the recipe with a GF…

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…

And you miss that creaminess, salty, tart flavor, especially on salads, buffalo, wings, or just with a veggie tray at a party. When Mary Kate and I started this blog, we began a list of things we missed desperately (okay, so…

Latkes
This season seems to be full of tradition on so very many levels, including food, food, and food. I think this can make the holidays difficult for adults with newly diagnosed food allergies. This was me last year — going to holiday gatherings where I could not safely eat anything. Missing traditional foods, wanting to…

Turkey, Turkey Stock, and Turkey Rice Soup with Kale – Denise’s Annual Insanity
Thanksgiving makes me slightly insane. Somehow I channel my grandmother, who is still among the living so I’m not even sure if that’s possible metaphysically speaking, and I make vast quantities of food that bear no rational relation to the actual number of people for whom I am cooking. Our Thanksgiving dinners when I was…
