Whole Food Bread-like Goods!

Whip up a batch of this delicious Cornbread tonight and eat a couple of pieces with some homemade chili, then you'll have plenty left for your Thanksgiving Stuffing!
We use Masa Harina Flour (which is soaked in Lime) so those that may be Corn-sensitive can usually eat it just fine. I added a little Organic Canned Corn and tossed the rest in a pot of Chicken Soup I made, but it's an optional addition, especially if you're using it for stuffing.
Crumble of your leftovers and dry in the sun under... Continue reading ...

Just like the person who doesn't like cats, never trust a person who doesn't like Banana Bread! That's just plain weird, not liking Banana Bread. Ha! Just teasing, BUT I just don't know ANYONE that doesn't like Banana Bread! Now, there's even more reason to LOVE it, cuz this one's Whole Food and Grain-free like basically all my other recipes! I hope you enjoy it :)
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 C Blanched Almonds
1 C Shredded Coconut
1/3 C Erythritol
1/3 C Coconut Sugar (very similar to Brown Sugar)
2 C V... Continue reading ...

Waffles are just plain awesome! I mean what's better than a late, lazy Sunday breakfast with the scent of almost cooked waffle batter drifting through the air? Mixed with a hint of coffee and possibly even (oh heavens!) the smell of sizzling bacon (oh my!)? It's enough to make the men around here swoon. Literally! Mainly because I rarely make breakfast anymore so these olfactory morning pleasantries have gone missing for sometime here!
 The other reason I love waffles is fo... Continue reading ...

In the kitchen, (and most especially my kitchen it seems, as it is certainly not a mistake-free zone!) mistakes can sometimes yield the most delicious and wonderful surprises! In this case, for instance, a mistake of too much egg in my Grain-Free Pie Crust lead to the beautiful discovery of this recipe! I had been receiving gentle pressure from my busy daughter-in-law, Andrea and her 'like-sister-close-friend' , Aryss, to create a healthy Cinnamon Roll Recipe! Andrea can sometimes give in to...

Well...
at least the CRUST and the SAUCE are HEALTHY and taste Soooo Gooood you
can even cut waay back on the Mozzarella! And the Naughty Toppings are
Your Choice!
While we're on the subject of Potatoes (we
were weren't we?)....Oh I was still reveling in that yummy Sandwich Bun
recipe... But I've gotta say that around here if there was life without
good Pizza, well, I just don't know what would happen, but it wouldn't
be good! For
me, living without much pizza hasn't been a problem b... Continue reading ...

My
friends over at the Wheat Belly Blog inspired this recipe so please
read the eye-opening best seller Wheat Belly, it may very well change
your life!
Well, I love potatoes, and I personally happen to
think they're good for you in moderation, but I also know there's a lot
of you that have been going real low carb and the potatoes are a no-no,
so this is my gift to all of you! There's other yummy low carb crusts
out there, but I really like this one. It's like REAL Pizza Crust!
I ca... Continue reading ...

One
bright and sunny BB (that's 'Before Blogging') day, I decided to tackle
the very challenging task of making some sandwich/hamburger buns
without using the typical gluten-free flours or added starches that have
been extracted from their original source and are soooo bad for our
bodies.
Because I'd already had plenty of experience playing
with my ingredients prior to this the buns actually turned out almost
perfect on the first try! (I'm not bragging, believe me, because that
does... Continue reading ...

Hi Y'all!
I'm Annabelle, a quirky homemaker just tryin' to carve out my little piece o' sunshine in the California countryside. Botox and tofu are scarce in these parts. Besides, Mom always said "Tofu is a lot like life, you never know when it's gonna make you barf!"
