Basic Gluten Free Flour Mix Recipe

July 24, 2009 Baking

As you’ve probably noticed, I’m obsessed with baking lately. Being gluten free has actually fueled my desire, since it presents more of a challenge than conventional baking – at least in the respect that standard rules don’t always seem to apply. I’ve been reading many books on the subject, and these two are the ones I’ve found to be most helpful for your average home baker.

Raw Food Cookery: Sexy B!tches Like it Raw

July 17, 2009 Gluten Free

What’s better that hot girls and good food? Nothing. At least that I can think of, anyway.

A few years ago I was wasting time on YouTube and stumbled across the channel for Sexy Bitches Like it Raw. I’ve dabbled in raw food before so I’m familiar with the culture, but most of the raw food folks border on crunchy and I’m not really into it.

Maybe you’ve been watching all of these truffle posts thinking, “Crap! My girlfriend/boyfriend/farm animal du jour is vegan. These recipes do me no good.” Take heart, dear downtrodden culinarian.

Slow Cooked Vegan Collard Greens

August 23, 2008 American

Having only ever had slow cooked vegan collard greens, I remember being so shocked when I learned that collards, cooked in their “traditional” form, aren’t even remotely vegetarian. Why take something so simply green and turn into something unhealthy? I was totally baffled. So I dug around and found a few vegan collard greens recipes, [...]

Roasted Cauliflower and Zucchini

August 3, 2008 American

How do I love roasted cauliflower and zucchini? Let me count the ways. As much as I love rice and baked goods, my body seems to give me the big old middle finger whenever I eat them. Consequently, I’ve been trying to cut down on the grains in my diet and have been fastidiously compiling [...]

Thai Black Rice Pudding with Strawberries

July 27, 2008 Asian

If I was even remotely musical, I’d write a song for thai black rice pudding with strawberries (or any other kind of fruit, really).

I Don’t Give a F*** Vegetable Medley

July 23, 2008 American

I had a crap day yesterday, and by the time I got home, I didn’t want to cook. For hours I started wistfully at the bag of vegetables I’d brought home from the farmer’s market – I’d had such plans for them, but I just didn’t give a damn anymore. How did I deal with [...]

Blueberry Oatmeal, Gluten-Free

July 10, 2008 American

As someone who can’t have gluten, oatmeal was a thing of the past. There are many opinions on why it’s unsafe for those of the anti-gluten persuasion to consume oats, from theories that they are inherently glutenated to concerns of cross-contamination due to being processed by facilities that also mill and transport wheat products. The [...]

The Green Smoothie Monster

June 26, 2008 Breakfast

For ages doctors and dietitians have been spouting off about how we need to eat more vegetables, and at the top of that “must eat” list are dark leafy greens.
