Featured Recipe:I haven’t posted anything from Jean over at Lemons and Anchovies in a while, but this recipe for Grilled Lamb Chops with Chimichurri Sauce will make up for that gap in time…

Featured Book:I received this book more than a few months ago and have gone through it page by page and have tried at least a dozen of the recipes. It’s been a very handy resource in the kitchen, especially when looking for things to make my ever so skeptical and demanding kids. They always challenge me to make something that is either…

Featured Product:I had given up hope on beef jerky a long time ago. Not only were most of the store bought versions not gluten-free, they also contained a pretty hideous list of ingredients that I wouldn’t even want to feed my…

This recipe for Southwestern Stuffed Bell Peppers from Carrie Vitt of Deliciously Organic is a perfect example of the type of dish I would point people to when they ask, “what do you eat?”. Following a gluten and grain-free diet, it’s a question I get frequently. While I had that same reaction when I first [...]
While the purpose of this post is to share a recipe for gluten-free southern fried chicken, it’s also about an amazing success story. I’ve shared quite a few success stories in the past, but this one is really impressive. It’s about Russ Crandall, who at the age of 25, suffered a stroke and had to [...]
In the midst of all the chaos this week came a very interesting diet/mental illness risk paper. Particularly good because it comes from the premier psychiatry journal…
Here’s a fantastic recipe for a Vietnamese Chicken Salad from yet another paleo blog titled The Clothes Make the Girl. It’s by Melissa Joulwan — if you’d like to learn more about her, check out her blog — it’s a very entertaining read. I found it utterly fascinating that she used to be a roller derby [...]
I’m so excited! Chris Kresser, one of my favorite sources for up-to-date nutrition information is now featuring recipes. If you haven’t tried Yucca Fries before, you’re missing out. Also, cooking it in a quality fat like Chris suggests will not only make it a healthy option, but a delicious one as well. On top of [...]
If you’ve looked at recipes on this site for any time at all, you’ll know that I love food made from real ingredients and even better if it’s not only gluten-free, but grain-free as well. I’ve posted numerous recipes for alternative pizza crusts in the past, but hands down, my favorite has been the cauliflower [...]
I came across this recipe while on Tori Avey’s blog, The Shiksa in the Kitchen. It was a guest post by Kim from Cravings of a Lunatic — which is a new blog to me. It’s a blog that I wouldn’t normally be sharing a lot from as there’s not a lot of gluten-free options, [...]
A note from Chris: Back in June of 2010, I wrote this short post on the passing of my father in 1975. It’s a story of “what if’s” and while it’s a sad story, it’s a story that needs to be told — because more likely than not, it’s a story that’s all too common. [...]
I love finding recipes that are naturally gluten-free on websites that don’t necessarily devote themselves to the gluten-free diet. It just goes to show that you don’t need a package with a big “gluten-free” stamped on it to eat — and eat well. This post for Grilled Pork Chops, Cauliflower Gratin from Christopher Cina is [...]
