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 »

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 »

I assume most folks on special multiple allergy diets have cast an uneasy eye on the new Expandex modified tapioca starch. I recently purchased a bag to experiment with and did a little investigating on the product in order to hopefully shed some light on things.
I contacted Corn Products U.S. technical support last week and a company representative responded (albeit after almost a week of waiting). Perhaps that is a good sign. The representative may have been digging deep to make sure the information presented is factual and accurate….
My contact confirmed that Expandex Modified Tapioca Starch is made in a dedicated facility where no gluten or corn are processed.

Some reporters just don’t get it. Joel Stein is on that list. On Jan. 9th he posted a commentary at the L.A. Times that would make any parent of a child with allergies skin crawl. Perhaps he was trying to be funny.
It unnerves me that people with media power would abuse it such a reckless way. Folks may read Joel Stein’s piece and think it is perfectly okay to feed your child with allergies the forbidden food because the child’s problem is not his digestive system but a ‘yuppie rich phenomena” that his parents have bought into. …read the rest of this entry »

I waited until the last minute to get together something for my son’s Mother’s Day Tea Party. Wanting to make these cookies as healthy as possible by avoiding all sugars, even maple syrup, I decided to check out Pecanbread.com, a website devoted to helping folks following a Specific Carbohydrate Diet. There I found a handful of recipes. One in particular peaked my interest because I had all the ingredients for it on hand. This was my first attempt to bake cookies without any flour or sugar and I was very surprised at the results. The kids loved them, and for anyone not familiar with the SCD diet, as it is often referred as, this recipe is gluten-free, corn-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and Feingold approved. Oh, and one last thing I forgot to mention–delicious! …read the rest of this entry »
