So really this is the most basic of recipes but we are using organic ingredients to “healthify” these gluten-free fried goat cheese mozzarella sticks. Wait, What? Yes, fried goat cheese mozzarella sticks! So after giving up gluten in 2010, I gave up dairy in 2014. And my digestive system has been on the mend in a major way. Then last year I reintroduced goat’s milk,...

Why make a Goat Cheese Alfredo Sauce? Besides the fact that it is just really, really good… For people with casein digestion issues, it may add a whole new option to your dinner menu if you can tolerate goat’s milk!

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...
Restaurant Style Tex-Mex Rice I love Tex-Mex (a fusion of American and Mexican cuisine). It is hard to grow up in Texas and not love it.

I mean what is not to love about enchiladas, tacos, chips and queso, guacamole, salsas, beans and rice. And there...
