Hello friends, it’s time to plan out the weekly menu for March 21. How was your week? Were you on Spring Break, too? Do anything exciting? SXSW? We had a nice relaxing week enjoying our amazing dinner at Counter 3.Five.VII – it was so fancy. We tried the five course menu and they adjusted some of the dishes to be gluten and dairy free for...
Hello Meatless Monday! So Asian Fried Rice? It’s been done before. Why blog it again? I’m sharing this recipe because Asian fried rice recipes have been a challenge for me. And trust me that I’ve tried to make ‘Chinese Fried Rice’ with old cooked rice and cold rice – all the ways they’ve said to make fried rice – but it just never works for...
Hi everyone! Hope you had a great week. Time for the weekly menu Feb 29, 2016. So if you are wondering what I’m doing besides blogging about food, taking pictures of food and tweeting about health, food safety, food choices, nutrition, science… Genomics and Bioinformatics Program I’m now working on a certificate in bioinformatics, which is a field that uses computer science techniques to analyze and...
The weekly menu Feb 15 is ready! So I’ve finished up my third week back at school online at Johns Hopkins University. And it has been a little overwhelming at times getting my bearings but also wonderful. Really wonderful. Because I like to learn and it’s all about learning something new – especially now since my brain is truly working again and the fog has...
Hello friends! Time for the weekly menu Jan 25, 2016. We are having a good start to the new year. Hope you had a good week and great start to the new year, too! There was a period of my life that I was in a very bad place after my mom’s passing but before the toxic mold exposure. Although I was in grad school...
Here’s to A Happy New Year! I can’t believe this is the last casein free, gluten free weekly menu of 2015! It has gone by so fast. I’ve had a lot of fun coming up with the weekly menus and tracking our journey, trying new recipes, meats (bison) and veggies (kohlrabi) while learning and aspiring to make better food choices. And I’ve met a lot...
Happy Holidays Hope you’re having happy healthy holidays! This week’s gluten free weekly menu for Dec 14 is pretty simple and easy because, well you know how this time of year can be. I’m going to try to put a new spin on some older recipes. I found a vegan cheese from Field Roast Chao that is made with a coconut base and fermented tofu....
Tourist in My Own Town Hi everyone! Hope you had a great week. Time for the weekly menu Oct 26 edition! Well our little staycation has come to an end since the husband’s project starts up again this week, but it has been a lot of fun. We even made it out to the Zilker Botanical Gardens last week. There were so many steps to...
Hi everyone! And welcome to our new followers! I hope you find some inspiration for cooking at home. Clean Eating It’s been an interesting journey as my husband and I transitioned from eating a lot of comfort or “junk” food to much cleaner cooking where we use fresh veggies, lean proteins, healthy grains and lots of spice! Our allergies are better, my digestion is better,...
Time for the gluten-free weekly menu Aug 31, 2015. I can’t tell you how excited I am that college football starts up again this weekend!!! Woohoo! I’m a Texas Ex Life Member and bleed burnt orange, as they say. And I love being back in Austin for football season! I went to UT during the Mackovic years (’90s) so my expectations are never that high...
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!
