Beware of any BBQ sauce made with beer or soy sauce. But most rubs are either salt and pepper or spice based and shouldn’t contain any wheat. Always ask, though. And as long as the bread comes from...

Whole Enchilada Passes To Hot Luck Festival Woot! Woot! I didn’t make it to the first Hot Luck Food & Music Festival last year, but boy did I luck out this year. Tillamook cheese held a contest on twitter for two Whole Enchilada passes and I actually won them! So exciting. That’s a value of $1100 and access to almost all the food and...

Part of the challenge has been eating really clean to keep my gut bacteria as happy as possible, exercising to keep stress down, and surrounding myself...
This blog is about cooking real food from unprocessed ingredients to make simple and naturally gluten-free meals and mostly casein-free/dairy-free (except for a little aged Parmesan and goat milk). We try to "healthify” and clean up our favorite comfort foods using organic fresh veggies, lean proteins, healthy grains and lots of spice!
