Why Imperfect Foods? We got our first delivery from Imperfect Foods this week and I’m excited to see how this goes. I created a gluten-free menu plan based on what was in our delivery box so we could try and prevent anything getting thrown away. There were several reasons we decided to try this delivery service. They deliver “ugly” or imperfect foods to your door...
Time for the weekly menu Nov. 27 – Dec 3, 2017. It’s almost December! How did it go by so fast? New favorite goat cheese alert. Brett found a sliced goat’s milk Dutch cheese from Trader Joe’s that is wonderful. It melts well and has a very mild flavor. It has been a game changer for us. Being able to eat goat cheese in general...

And there were so many bites that were gluten...

Hi all! How is it already time for Thanksgiving again? Wow! We haven’t cooked a turkey the last few years but I’m actually looking forward to doing it again this year.
