I call this easy-peasy Thai curry it’s so simple to put together and you can use whatever veggies you have handy in the fridge. It makes a great vegetarian supper and if you leave out the fish sauce it would be fine for vegans too. This one is going to be a regular in our household.
The first thing you’re probably thinking is “How can fermented gingerbread ice cream sandwiches possibly be good?” Well, they can’t be good they’re actually great! The gingerbread cookies are made in a similar way to traditional cookies (and if you eat eggs, you may use 1 large egg in place of the flaxseed-water mixture or Ener-G-water mixture), while the ice cream is made using fermented cashews as the base, which gives it a slight frozen-yogurt taste. These delights quickly took the top spot among my favorite holiday treats! Not only are they absolutely delicious, but they’re also gluten-free, dairy-free, and…
For those of us who shouldn’t eat candy for health reasons (and isn’t that most of us?), these cookies help fulfill the craving for chocolate-covered peanut butter cups. To take them over the top, drizzle Chocolate Glaze over the baked and cooled cookies. We call for baking the cookies in muffin cups, but you could also use a 12-compartment mini loaf pan. For sugar-free chocolate syrup, Denene uses the Publix store brand because it has the fewest carbs. Hershey’s and Smucker’s also make sugar-free chocolate syrup, but the carbs are slightly higher. Look over the options at your market and…
This is one of my husband’s favorite cakes. When Michael was diagnosed with diabetes, I made a few adjustments so that he could still have an occasional slice for special celebrations. The diabetic-friendly additions of the brown sugar blend, sugar substitute, and nonfat yogurt cut down on the sugar and carbs without sacrificing flavor.
Kevin has this thing where he tells me something unbelievable and, being completely and unwaveringly gullible, I always believe it. When we first started dating he told me he had never heard of the movie Babe. Not that he hadn’t seen it that he hadn’t even heard of it. Understandably, I freaked out. About a year ago, Kev told me he had never heard of a s’more. I was incredulous, and because we were camping, I cobbled together what turned out to be a very disappointing, lukewarm s’more-ish monster. I’m still not sure if his claim was true, but these…
Most juice-based cold and flu remedies are mixtures of lemon juice, honey, and cayenne. This carrot juice blend is an interesting alternative to the ubiquitous (albeit highly effective) lemon juice tonics. Loaded with some of the top immunity-boosting foods, this tonic packs a fiery punch, and is yummy to boot.
This tuna salad is one of the most successful items I ever put on a menu. In 2½ years, I sold 62,000 orders! I think the public was trying to tell me something, and I’d like to pass it on to you. I’ve streamlined it a bit and lightened the flavors, but the idea of cubes of hand-cut tuna in a tangy, sweet, and savory dressing is still at the heart of this recipe. It’s the same flavor principle that works so well in beef tartare, but with more of an Asian accent.
