My kids love bean dip. I think most children love dipping their food as a general rule but bean dip is a great option because it packs a nutritional punch. Despite being a daily staple, I haven’t posted our usual hummus recipe because it is different every time – a little of this, a little … Continue reading »
This is a take on a tomato free salsa my mother in law created for me because I can’t eat tomatoes while I am still nursing R due to his tomato allergy. I have been having people find my fresh tomato salsa recipe while searching for a “tomato free” version probably because I wrote in … Continue reading »
When my friend Elizabeth told me that her husband didn’t order falafel at restaurants anymore because he preferred how she made it at home, I knew I had to try it. Well, that was a factor but the other thing is that she’s never steered me wrong with recipes. It is simple but perfect. You … Continue reading »
What do you think of a recipe that begins with making french fries? You’ll want to make extra to account for the snacking you’ll do while cooking everything else. In fact, the day I photographed this I made fries with our lunch and prepared the khoresht for dinner. Khoresht is pretty much a term to … Continue reading »
(Linked to CybelePascal.com’s Allergy Friendly Friday 8/19/11, click through for other recipes!) So I can’t eat this anymore at the moment, this photographed batch was actually still in the fridge when I realized R had issues with me eating tomatoes so I never got to finish it.

I reserved and checked out every single allergy or gluten free cookbook I could get my hands on at the library and searched for things that would be “safe” for us to eat. Some I’m sure were … Continue reading »
Here’s another recipe that is a little bit more of a meal idea but we could always use more meal ideas! Also, I have spent too many years messing up baked potatoes (that makes me sound like a horrible cook, I know) not to share this. The baked potatoes come from The New Best Recipe (amazon … Continue reading »
This recipe is linked on Allergy Friendly Friday 4/15/11 over here at Cybele Pascal’s website! It is fun getting to share these ideas with the allergy community, sometimes I think these things are obvious but if I think back to when I was just starting out with a new way of cooking it was daunting … Continue reading »
This one is simple but very handy and cost effective (under $5 for ingredients)! I originally started making Deborah Madison’s version for a pizza sauce in Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone (amazon affiliate link, it is on page 507) but it has changed a lot, especially with the six pound Costco sized can of crushed tomatoes … Continue reading »
