    Healthy Goodness: Red Lentil Cauliflower Curry

    Healthy Goodness: Red Lentil Cauliflower Curry

    I absolutely love this recipe for Red Lentil Cauliflower Curry. It’s full of fantastic flavor. It’s easy to put together. It cooks in a slow cooker. It makes the house smell really homey.

    TEST: Gluten Free Lemon Bundt Cake

    TEST: Gluten Free Lemon Bundt Cake

    When you think of lemon what comes to your mind? For me, it’s the sweet tart taste that is the harbinger of summer – of the light well into the evening. It’s the sweetness of time spent outside in the garden nurturing all my babies, on the patio playing backgammon, and feeling the warm sand…

    Mom’s Zucchini Stew

    Family + Food = LOVE

    Family + Food = LOVE

    Be warned this blog post has little to do with anything gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan or vegetarian. Instead, it’s about family traditions that are steeped in food. I’m Italian-American and, of course, food plays an important role in my family’s life. Recipes are handed down from one generation to the next. We celebrate all our joys…

    Remake Recipe: Old Fashioned Cake Doughnut Mini-Muffins, Take One

    Before I begin this blog today I just want to give a big shout out to all those courageous gluten-free bakers out there. You know, first hand, baking gluten free is a tough business.
