The Gluten-Free Family

Gluten-Free Gingerbread house

This year was our first year making a gluten-free gingerbread house. It’s one of those things I had always intended to do, but never quite gotten around to doing.
This year we had a collaborative effort – I made the gluten-free gingerbread cookie batter, my mother cut out pieces according to a template and made [...]

Brownie-Mallows

My daughter heard that her friend’s mom made brownies with fluff on top, and had to have them right away. We came up with this recipe, which is delicious. When we told her friend about it, it turned out that my daughter had misunderstood, and her friend’s mom doesn’t make these, so it’s now [...]

Simple Gooseberry Syrup

If you miss the flavor of raspberries and blackberries but cannot eat them, consider trying gooseberries – they are their own food family (related only to currants) and are unlikely to cross-react with other foods.
The green gooseberries taste very similar to raspberries and blackberries when eaten raw. However, the red gooseberries are quite tart, [...]

Junior Mint Brownies

This is a wonderfully easy treat tip for those of you who like chocolate-mint! This reminds me of the Mint Chocolate Brownies I remember from volunteering at the nearby folk music coffeehouse as a teenager.
Allergy note: my brownie recipe contains eggs, but is gfcf, gluten free, and dairy free. Junior Mints have [...]

Memorable Meals

Everyone has influences on their cooking. One of my biggest influences is my Nana, who taught me how to make ravioli and many other things. Don’t forget to write down notes and recipes from your biggest influences, as you never know what the next day will bring.
I have come to stay with my [...]

Summer camp when you can’t have a sandwich

This week is Food Allergy Awareness week, and this month is Celiac Disease Awareness month. To honor both of these, we are participating on the bi-weekly Food Allergy carnival and talking about summer camp despite food restrictions
Our family has Celiac Disease, an intolerance to dairy, and LG has a severe berry allergy. We [...]

Are you getting ready for the holidays?

First, an apology – we’ve had some site-wide downtime and snafus when we needed to switch web hosts this weekend. We are sorry for any inconvenience, and will be posting extra recipes this week to make up for it.
The Food Allergy Carnival was posted Friday. Over at A Gaggle of Girls, we [...]

More gluten-free and allergy-friendly goodness

I joined Foodie Mama today, and have posted two articles – you can check my articles out via my GF Gaggle profile. You may, of course, leave ratings for the articles and recipes…
Today, I posted an article about raising allergy-friendly kids, and the incredibly easy kids-cooking Revolutionary Pumpkin Custard. There are some other [...]

New Allergy-Friendly Foods

Last week I had the opportunity to review a new juice called Froose. It’s a mix of whole grain brown rice and juice, and is gluten-free, kosher pareve, dairy-free, soy-free, and sweetened with brown rice syrup instead of corn syrup or sugar. Please check out our review and check out Froose for yourself. [...]

Dairy-free and Soy-free baking tips

In general, I find baking dairy-free reasonably easy – there are a lot of alternatives out there, and in general dairy-free baking doesn’t alter the recipe – be it Gluten-free or not. Eggs are another story, but we’re not going there today! I use Fleishmann’s Unsalted margarine (Kosher Pareve, no dairy, no casein) as [...]
