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…

Winter Is Coming Chicken and Kale
This recipe featuring lovely tasty kale is posted, in part, in honor of the last day of G.I.S.H.W.H.E.S. (the Greatest International Scavenger Hunt the World Has Ever Seen), which everyone who knows me has heard way too much about (and has likely been asked to participate in). I am not sure why GISHWHES is obsessed…

Better Than Sex Vegan Rum Caramel Sauce
So, one of the major bummers about a milk allergy is no more caramel. Or at least no more store bought candy with caramel. And I miss that. So by adapting a recipe that was used to make sticky buns, we developed this caramel. The first thing we used it for was to dump over…

This entire recipe is an excuse to play with marshmallow fondant, honestly, in my favorite baked goods format: the cupcake. Since gluten-free baking is still…

Denise’s Crock-Pot Pulled Pork
I love pulled pork. Although generally pulled pork is not rife with potential allergens when I eat out, you never know. By making it at home, I control the ingredients and I know what’s in it, and I have leftovers. Woo hoo! This is an incredibly easy version. Basically you dump the stuff in the…

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),…
