One of my favorites is Cajun dirty rice....

Meat and Potatoes! I love you. My favorite is probably this classic beef stew, or maybe pot roast, barbacoa short ribs, chicken stew with mashies, or steaks and frites… okay any type of braised beef. With potatoes. And spices. Love it all. And I will say this – I was a vegetarian for several years and we are trying to eat less meat in our...

Gluten-Free Cherry Nectarine Crumble I LOVE summer fruit. Especially, stone fruits like cherries, nectarines, peaches, apricots, and plums. The abundance of summer fruit is awesome.

Because that is when it is perfect for making a fruit crumble or healthy sorghum millet muffins. I’ve...

For the Love of Soup I really love soup. Any time of the year, I will have soup on my mind. When it is cold, it is warming and nourishing. When it is hot, if you pick the right soup, it is light but filling and so tasty. You get so many nutrients and fiber, which are easy to digest. Some of my favorite Austin...

And instead of dipping in a traditional buttermilk and egg wash, we substitute goat milk yogurt, water and eggs for absolute fried chicken perfection. We Really Love Fried Foods! Isn’t fried chicken and okra such a classic comfort food? Before I had to start eating gluten-free we loved picking...
