  • Polenta, Tomato and Mozzarella “Sandwiches”

    Polenta, Tomato and Mozzarella “Sandwiches”

    Lunch always seems to be the mystery meal of the day; I usually don’t know what I’m going to have until I see something in the fridge that catches my eye. Today I spied some packaged polenta, so I thought slices of crispy fried polenta topped with tomatoes and fresh mozzarella would be tasty, sort…

  • Oat Flour Pancakes {gluten-free}

    Oat Flour Pancakes {gluten-free}

    I found this recipe about 15 years ago in a magazine called “American Health”, and it’s been a favourite ever since.  This was before the gluten-free diet became well-known, but it was listed as a superfoods recipe in the magazine because it was made with oats, and had an accompanying blueberry sauce recipe, which I’ll…

  • Cashew Pulp Crackers {gluten-free}

    Cashew Pulp Crackers {gluten-free}

    I hate to throw anything useful away, and every time I make nut milk, I always think there must be something that could be made with the pulp that’s leftover, besides just drying it out and saving it as flour. As luck would have it, I recently came across a recipe for Rosemary Raisin Almond…

  • Mediterranean-Style Potato Stew

    Mediterranean-Style Potato Stew

    I wanted something with Mediterranean flavours the other night, something with salty Kalamata olives, so I made this fast and easy veggie stew (sorry the photo isn’t the greatest, I almost forgot to take one). I started with a base of tomatoes and potatoes, seasoned with dill, and then added zucchini, because that’s what I had…

  • Beach House Weekend {and a dairy-free, gluten-free cheesecake}

    Beach House Weekend {and a dairy-free, gluten-free cheesecake}

    Shane and I were very generously invited by a friend to spend the weekend at a beach house in Lincoln City, Oregon. It was her birthday, as well as two others’, so she rented the house as a special treat, and invited several of her friends to celebrate.

  • Asian-Style Noodles with Veggies

    Asian-Style Noodles with Veggies

    I was craving something with fresh, crunchy veggies and a salty broth for supper, so I thought an Asian style noodle bowl would hit the spot. I happened to have some miso paste in the fridge, so I made my broth base with that, and used some fresh, crunchy veggies: snap peas, zucchini and red…

  • Rhubarb Crumble {gluten-free}

    Rhubarb Crumble {gluten-free}

    This past weekend I did something very unusual…I bought rhubarb!  I’m so used to having rhubarb growing in the backyard that it felt strange to have to go out and buy it.

  • Apple Dutch Baby {gluten-free}

    Apple Dutch Baby {gluten-free}

    I’ve made regular wheat flour versions of Apple Dutch Baby recipes many times, but now I like to try to use gluten-free flours whenever I can. Experimenting with different gluten-free flours, adding different starches, etc. has led me to the conclusion that with this recipe, almost anything goes.

  • Zimtsterne – Gluten-Free Cookies

    Zimtsterne – Gluten-Free Cookies

    I was browsing David Lebovitz’s site today, and I came across his post on Zimtsterne; delicious looking star-shaped cinnamon cookies which he buys from “Stohrer, Paris’ oldest pastry shop”.  He didn’t have a recipe on the site, but one of the commenters, someone named Alisa, had posted a German recipe with her comment.  So I…
