Plantain Flour Pancakes
from Chris Kresser

Discovering that I could make pancakes out of something other than traditional flours was a great moment in my post celiac diagnosis life. Early on, I tried and enjoyed many of the store-bought variations — but the truth be told — so many of these aren’t doing us any favors in terms of quality ingredients…

Featured Book:
Paleo Comfort Foods
by Julie & Charles Mayfield

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:
Grass Fed Jerky Chews

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…

Mom’s Wheat Sensitivity

by The Clothes Make the Girl

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 [...]

Yucca Fries

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.

Cauliflower Pizza Crust
from Deliciously Organic

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 [...]

40 Clove Roast Chicken
from Cravings of a Lunatic
A guest post on The Shiksa in the Kitchen

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, [...]

The Untreated Celiac Disease Epidemic:
What can we learn from our parents?
A guest post by Jordan Reasoner

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. [...]

Grilled Pork Chops, Cauliflower Gratin

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 [...]

Are you a Food Fascist?

I recently read this post from Michael Ruhlman titled, “Food Fascism” and it really struck a nerve with me. I’ve known a lot of people like this and I just had to say something. Read on, you might be surprised at where I go with this post. Michael went on to talk about a wedding [...]

Shepard’s Pie
from Zenbelly

I never even knew what a Shepard’s Pie was until I lived in London in 1990 and came across it while perusing the menu at one of London’s many great pubs. I remember asking the waiter what it was and he just looked at me with a blank stare, it was almost as if I [...]
