Having to cut out dairy from my diet has proved to be very challenging. Having to also make sure to make gluten-free and dairy-free recipes proved even more of a challenge. Making sure you take into account of multiple food intolerances leaves you with limited choices in foods and desserts. I found this recipe that…
Baking with Intention. Does bread have feelings?
I have been reading a lot on the internet about intention. With the power of your mind you can manifest your desire. I decided to test this theory out and put intention into baking. Most people bake because they love it. You see a lot of recipes that say, made with love, or just add…
Dehydrating Things
Why dehydrate your food? I dehydrate fruits because they are going to spoil. I dehydrate mostly in the summer and fall month when there is an abundance of fruits and veggies. I love dehydrating watermelon and apples. They make healthy snacks for work but recently I got into dehydrating veggies (until my dehydrator died). During…
Non-Dairy Creamer
Going dairy free can be hard. Especially when you love the rich creamy taste of milk in your coffee. I have been looking for an alternative for quite a while. The soy creamers that are available are usually full of sugar (which as you know I cannot have). I tried hemp milk, almond milk, cashew…
Okonomiyaki
Japanese food is definitely on my top things to make. Its versatile, delicious and easy. Okonomiyaki is one of my go to meals when I crave Japanese. Okonomiyaki can be made just with cabbage but you can add your own twist to it. Try out seafood, chicken, tofu. Get creative!! Start by slicing the cabbage. You…
Eat it later … Cereal Bar
When you think of breakfast, you will definitely think about cereal. I always think I will eat cereal for breakfast but nope. I would rather eat toast. The sad thing is all the cereal that sits in my cupboard. Eat it now or eat it later. I always eat it later. I opened up my…
Spinach Gomaae
Make spinach interesting by adding a bit of Japanese flavour to it. This recipe is from Hana! http://www.hanaetsuko.com. The first step is to buy and cook lots and lots of spinach. Spinach wilts a lot so I recommend buying twice (or triple) the amount that you would think you need. I placed the spinach in a…
Chickpea Flour and Chickpea Flatbread
Friday was a lazy day for me. All I wanted to do was get some rest but I also wanted a nice tasty snack. In my search for gluten free breads I stumbled across homemade chickpea flour. What made this nice was that I could make my own flour. I always try to have chickpeas…
Chocolate Peanut Butter Avocado Pudding
In my quest to replace dairy in my life, I stumbled upon a dairy free chocolate peanut butter pudding made from bananas and avocados. The recipe was posted on Huffington Post so you would think that it would taste pretty good. I gave it a shot! First buy ripe avocados. You will need 1 1/2 (but…
Dairy-free Ice Cream Cake
Having restrictions in your diet doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy what you eat. You just need to find ways to work around it. It allows you to try new things and expand your food choices. My sister just recently stopped having dairy. I guess that is a good thing because dairy isn’t really that…
