I found this yummy (and not very sweet) recipe for cookies on a website for the paleo diet: http://www.sonofgrok.com/2009/02/recipe-carrot-cake-caveman-cookies/. I made some modifications based on the comments I read at the end, our own preferences and the desire to keep more enzymes and vitamins in them. Here is the recipe I used…
1 large and 1 small [...]

DAN! Cookies
Posted in recipes on May 1, 2009 | 2 Comments »
This is a super easy recipe that I used out of the book: Special Diets for Special Kids 2. It is a gluten and casein free cookbook mainly geared toward kids on the autistic spectrum. Check out the ingredients…
That’s all there is to it! I used sucanat instead of white sugar, and I think this [...]
Flax seed crackers

How easy can cracker making get??? Well, as long as you have a dehydrator (preferably the Excalibur), it is SUPER easy! All I did was soak some whole flax seeds with a little dried, minced onion, garlic and salt in water that was about one inch above the seeds for 30 minutes. Then I mixed it up well [...]
Raw, sprouted buckwheat granola!

I found this recipe on the blog, “Keeper of the Home” last week and was really excited to try it. I have been wanting to make a soaked, raw granola, but I didn’t really like the last one I made (it involved soaking the oats in kefir to release the phytates and then cooking in [...]
Yummy brown rice crackers

I like to make crackers for Daniel out of brown rice tortillas. These tortillas are not pliable like most since they do not have gluten, so we don’t like to use them like a regular tortilla. Normally I will smear them with coconut oil and then shake a little herbamare to give them some zip. [...]
Some failures and successes (?) with Daniel’s diet change

I just had to add this picture even though it doesn’t have to do with cooking (but it does have to do with Daniel since he put the bunny ears on our patient, wonderful cat).
This is failure number one… sorghum waffles. They actually taste pretty good, but Daniel wouldn’t touch them. He was excited about [...]
Nu-ways… a childhood family dish

I am finally posting this yummy, frugal recipe for you, my friend. I am not the biggest fan of ground beef, so the fact that I eat this means it is good (I hope). I hope you give it a try. If you do, don’t put anything else on the bun except mustard even if [...]

Today at our Natural Mamas meeting I showed my friends how to make whey and then we used that to make sauerkraut. I have given the recipes for these 2 things on a previous post: http://homecharmer.wordpress.com/2008/11/19/yummy-sauerkraut/ It is so easy… you have to try it! Here are some other yummy things to do if you [...]
Platanos Fritos

For those of you who don’t speak Spanish, the title is: “Fried Plantains”. For those of you who don’t know what plantains are- shame on you! (Just kidding!) This was one of my absolute favorite Peruvian dishes, and it always makes me want to go back to the jungles of Peru. Maybe someday…. For now, [...]
