Gutsy By Nature
These updated chicken cabbage rolls share only two things in common with the cabbage roll made by the descendents of Eastern European immigrants and popular on potluck tables of my childhood. The cabbage. And the roll. Everything else is completely unrecognizable… and that’s a good thing! A favorite dish for some, but I was never […]
I can hardly call this pork chop sheet pan dinner a “recipe” as it is little more than arranging foods on a pan and setting a timer! But I wanted to share because the truth is that this is the way most meals in my house get made. Yes, I’m in the food blogging business […]
This week’s new recipe for a citrus cabbage slaw is inspired by something I had while on vacation earlier this summer, but made even prettier (and more nutritionally diverse) by including purple cabbage and a couple big carrots, along with shredded green cabbage. It makes a refreshing and nutrient-packed accompaniment to barbecued meats and other […]
Your search for delicious and easy gluten-free and AIP crackers ends here! These garlic herb crackers are the real deal… crisp and crunchy with a hint of olive oil flavor on top of the rosemary and thyme that gives them plenty of interesting taste. I created them to be a vehicle for my favorite liver […]
There are a lot of things I could say about this salmon and rainbow swiss chard recipe, but I’ll start off with the most important: ONE PAN. You make the whole thing in a single skillet, so there is little to clean up at the end. It is also fast and easy to make, so […]
Do you remember the “Muffin Tops” episode of Seinfeld? If you were alive in 1997 when it aired – or even if you weren’t but have seen any reruns of this iconic sitcom series – I bet you do. This recipe for AIP blueberry muffin bites is my nod to that because it’s all muffin […]
Nothing says spring more than a vibrant green asparagus and garlic scape soup! Use your choice of greens – kale, spinach, chard, or even mustard or dandelion greens – and make it creamy with either cauliflower or white sweet potato, depending on your preference and dietary need. What are garlic scapes? Turns out the familiar […]
Celery root has recently become one of my favorite vegetables… and until not long ago, it was completely foreign to me. Ditto for several other ingredients in this delicious chicken & mushroom stew. Leeks? Bring them on! Shiitake mushrooms? Get in my tummy now! And marjoram? Oh yes, it is now one of my absolute […]
Grilling season is here and these curry shrimp skewers are an easy and flavorful break from the ordinary burgers and other typical BBQ fare. Shrimp tends to be a people pleaser (it is one of only two “creatures who swim” that the picky eater in my house will willingly eat!) and that’s a good thing, […]
Believe it or not, these maple cranberry and orange cookies actually came about through a bit of good fortune and not planning… but isn’t that always how the happiest accidents appear? If you are a regular follower of this blog, you know that I took an unplanned trip to my home state of Wisconsin last […]
