If you are frantically getting ready for the holidays and in need of a good alternative to the egg nog in the stores, here’s a terrific dairy free recipe that is quick and easy.
We hadn’t had egg nog for years until last Christmas when we decided to have a battle of the egg nog contest at our house: Joy of Cooking vs. the Internet. We mixed up a batch of the Joy of Cooking Cooked recipe. My mom chose an internet recipe that was less rich and less sweet. The Joy of Cooking recipe was sweeter and richer – much richer.
Our dairy free modification to the Joy recipe was to replace all of the milk and cream with coconut milk. Of the total quantity, we used half light coconut milk and half full fat. …read the rest of this entry »

Someone who gave me mayo advice a while back said that there was nothing that compared to real, fresh, honest mayo.
Boy, was she right.
I have attempted to make mayo before, but it wasn’t until recently that I finally cracked the code. I have tried several different recipes both online and even the one found in my beat up Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook that has navigated my kitchen with me for years.
I have always failed. It didn’t matter how many times I tried, my mayonnaise never wanted to thickenen properly. If it did it would deflate as soon as I added the oil.
Eventually I discovered my problem. I wasn’t using the right tools. …read the rest of this entry »

I was rummaging through the pantry trying to figure out what to make for dinner last night. I had a little over an hour and few ingredients– eggplant, a box of gluten-free lasagna noodles, a jar of sauce, a container of cottage cheese.
I contemplated making lasagna but without my usual ingredient listing I decided to pass, instead opting to try Eggplant Parmesan for a change.
This was my first attempt at making Eggplant Parmesan, period, never mind trying to alter it to make it gluten free. The dish turned out to be a favorite with everyone, and the kids especially loved the battered, fried eggplant. I decided to officially add it to the list. It takes a bit of time to make but is well worth the effort. …read the rest of this entry »

Most curry recipes include many steps and a laundry list of ingredients. It is hard enough to get food on the table for our busy family these days, with two in sports this spring. After serving this dish quite a few times and always getting a good response I decided to add it to the favorites list.
This is an easy curry recipe that takes about 5 minutes to prepare and about 30 minutes to cook.
Great for a busy evening, it has become a family favorite around here. We like to eat it once or twice a month, sometimes more, and often change it up a bit for variety. You can add garlic, ginger, just about anything you’d like. The following is the way we like it best. This dish is gluten free, corn free, dairy free, soy free, nut free, and Feingold friendly. …read the rest of this entry »

As the Director of the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy’s Food and Health Program Dr. David Wallinga is pleased to announce a brand new web-based Brain Food SelectorTM. It is a database that will help the average person easily find foods containing synthetic dyes.
Consumers will now be able to search by brand, product type, or specific food dye. The IATP’s Smart Guide to Food Dyes also describes why synthetic food dyes are used, gives valuable information about associated children’s health concerns and offers things parents can do to avoid buying products laced with these dyes. …read the rest of this entry »

We recently tried out Cherrybrook Kitchen’s Gluten-free Dreams Chocolate Cake Mix. We used a single box mix and it produced 12 standard-sized (2 3/4 inch diameter) cupcakes. The directions on the box were simple and the recipe requires no eggs. We opted to avoid the vanilla extract and go with orange oil instead because our corn-intolerant son reacts to commercially made vanilla extracts. Otherwise we followed the directions on the box. The cupcakes baked for 18 minutes.
We topped our cupcakes with a variation of Better Homes and Gardens’ popular fudge frosting recipe. I halved the original recipe, exchanged the butter for spectrum palm oil, and omitted the vanilla again. My version required more water and I utilized the microwave to get the right consistency.
Our family really enjoyed the cupcakes. The box mix from Cherrybrook Kitchen is a really delicious dark, bittersweet cake, and the frosting is a thick, fudge-like, very sweet but not sticky topping. I personally found the frosting to be a bit sweet for me but the boys unequivocally objected. They thought it was just perfect. We will definitely make this again. …read the rest of this entry »
