Amanda and Ken’s Smoky Sweet Potato Soup
Note (note 1): This post seems to have a lot of notes. My last year of grad school, my two roommates and I hosted somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 people for Thanksgiving. We added all the leaves of my drop-leaf table (I’m the last of the grandkids to get it, and it seats 12),…

Easy Buffalo Wings (Two Versions, One Gluten Free)
Why buffalo wings? Because I love them, and I can’t eat them out anymore. Buffalo wing sauce is generally made with butter or margarine, and therefore contains milk. And depending on the particular restaurant, the breading may contain milk and they might use an egg to coat the chicken before breading it. And many restaurants…

Happy Layers Nacho Dip
This is that layered Mexican dip that someone always brings to a potluck. I don’t recall being a huge fan of it in the pre-diagnosis days, but it was one of the random things I really missed when I suddenly couldn’t have it. This version is only 4 layers (no sour cream and no olives),…

I feel as though…

Hominy Salad
You know how grocery stores do all sorts of tastings and giveaways for a grand opening? Well, just to get things jump started here, we’re going to post TWO RECIPES for your allergy-free pleasure. Both focus on fresh vegetables, given that it’s summer and even in New England things are fresh. Hominy? What on earth…

Garlic & Ginger Bok Choi
Bok choi is a vegetable which is high in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and calcium, and often used in Asian cooking. For those of us who are dairy-free, vegetables high in calcium are a good thing. A relative of the turnip, bok choy has a light sweet flavor, and it’s low in calories. I developed…
