Allergy-Friendly Lapsha (Russian Noodle Soup)

I am very fortunate to have grown up with a wonderful Russian grandmother that always cooked delicious Russian food for us, and am even more fortunate that my mother has continued this tradition. My family moved to the street where my mother grew up when I was 5 years old, and I got to live […]

Allergy-Friendly Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

These Allergy-Friendly Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins are probably one of the things I bake the most. Not only is this an easy recipe, but I love that I don’t have to make an extra trip to the grocery store for any ingredients.

Meringue Frosting (dairy-free, nut-free)

I celebrated my 25th birthday this year, and one of the awesome gifts from my hubby was a kitchen torch. I always watch Top Chef, and other cooking shows, in awe of every opportunity that a chef can use a torch in cooking. So needless to say, I was VERY excited and eager to use […]

Sunbutter Cup Popcorn in Bowl

Dairy-free & Nut-free Sunbutter Cup Popcorn

I’m so excited to be sharing this simple recipe for nut-free and dairy-free Sunbutter Cup Popcorn (think Reese’s Cup Popcorn, without the dairy and nuts). It is now one of my favorite foods, but if I’m being honest, it took me a while to enjoy eating sunflower seed butter. When my mom first found this […]

How My Allergies Affected Labor and Delivery

Honestly, I had no idea I would be writing a post on labor, delivery, and allergies. I did not expect my allergies would affect my labor, delivery, and hospital stay with Owen as much as they did. Sure, I anticipated having to share my allergies when I was admitted, but I thought that would be […]

Pineapple Mango Crisp (Egg-free, Dairy-free, Nut-free)

It’s been quite a while since I’ve been here on the blog. Unfortunately, my husband and I are in the middle of a season of loss, and my health put me out of commission for a few months. While we are still moving through this season, I am happy to say that my health is […]

My Penicillin Allergy & Owen’s First Ear Infection

Well, we had a good run. Owen hadn’t been sick at all for the first ten months of his life. No fevers. No cough. No extra doctor appointments. I consider that a pretty good run – but I knew that couldn’t last forever.  About two weeks ago on a Saturday night, I noticed Owen had […]

Allergy-Friendly Peach Pastries (Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Nut-Free)

A good amount of the recipes that I have shared are recipes made from scratch. And yes, while they are still simple recipes, it is nice to have a few dessert recipes on hand that can be whipped out in less than 30 minutes (and does not require a mixer). These Allergy-Friendly Peach Pastries are […]
