Warm crispy crunch

This is not a recipe. It’s completely measurement-free. Here’s the assembly in photo format… GF cocoa rice crisp cereal *It’s not certified gluten free, but the ingredients are GF, so the only source of gluten would be from contamination in it’s processing/production.  Basically, I’m guessing Whole Foods didn’t want to pay more to get certified or use a separate factory/co-packer. GF peanut flour + USV almond milk And bananas. Mashed. Mixed. Microwaved. Munched.  🙂 These are the kinds of things I create for myself when my GI system is being lame and I need fodmaps… Read more >

Non-dairy creamers

Taste testing went down over the summer (I know, I know, that was so long ago!) and I’m ready to offer you my thoughts on the variety of mainstream non-dairy creamers on the market.   Ready for reviews?    Wild Wood soymilk creamer Pros: plain flavor didn’t distract from coffee/tea thick texture mixed well with beverages organic (but not advertised as such – oddly enough?) low sugar content (1 g per serving) no sodium Cons: long ingredient list after soymilk (maltodextrin, tapioca starch, etc.) lacking in flavor (it was more bland and less soy tasting… Read more >

Staying on track for the holidays?

In case you need some statistical (slash numerical) motivation…   This information is meant to be fun so use it however you want…but don’t make yourself crazy.  It’s just food.  If you pass on pumpkin pie because it takes “26 minutes to burn off those calories” I will be semi-angry with you.  But if you pass on 3rd and 4th servings of pumpkin pie because of this info, then I support your self-control.  🙂

"How about your husband?"

How does he eat?  Is he vegan too?  If I had a nickel for every time someone asked that question…well…I wouldn’t quit my day job or anything, but still, it happens a lot. Kyle prefers to remain unlabeled, and I think that’s perfect.  It’s definitely easier than saying he’s a sometimes vegetarian who eats cheese, but drinks almond milk and is high raw and vegan when his wife cooks, but occasionally orders meat when he’s at a nice restaurant and it’s from a responsible source.  Right?  It’s only natural that our habits and preferences rub… Read more >

Readers request: tofu

  Question: I’ve seen you prepare tofu, but it doesn’t appear you cook it and you just use it as a smear on bread or something – is it okay to do that with tofu (not cook before eating)? I am one of those weird people who thinks tofu tastes good plain.  But most people like it baked, fried, or cooked in some way.  However, to answer your question, no, you don’t need to cook tofu.  When you buy it, technically it’s already been cooked.  Tofu is made by coagulating soy milk and pressing the… Read more >
