Dairy-Free Strawberry Cheesecake Bites
I first made these dairy-free strawberry cheesecake bites on Valentine’s Day this year. I was one month away from our due date, so I was definitely not in the mood to make an elaborate dessert, or use my oven. While I didn’t have a chance to blog the recipe then, I am so happy to […]
Simple, Allergy-Friendly Cranberry Sauce
I have to be honest and say that the cranberry sauce has never been my favorite part of the Thanksgiving dinner. My family has always served the canned cranberries, and some members absolutely love it. Knowing that my husband loves his cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving, I thought I would try to make my own sauce […]
Lemon Cupcakes with Graham Cracker Crust (nut-free, dairy-free, egg-free)
While I tend to be a creature of habit in every aspect of life, including cooking and baking, every once in a while, I get an itch to try something new. I had just bought a whole batch of lemons and was craving a lemon dessert. I did not have a recipe for lemon cake, […]
Simple Allergy-Friendly Chili
Living in Los Angeles, we do not get much of a shot at cold weather or a winter season, so I jump at the times the weather dips below 75 degrees to turn on the stove and cook. Now that we’ve had a couple of cooler weeks, I cooked up a big pot of this […]
Top 8 Free Spinach Mushroom Quinoa
Having nuts and dairy completely eliminated from my diet, my protein options are limited. While I am a meat-eater, I can definitely get tired of turkey sandwiches for lunch, and chicken for dinner. I truly miss the days where I could have string cheese or yogurt for snacks. Nuts were never an option for me, […]
Vegan S’more Brownies (Egg-Free, Dairy-Free, Nut-Free)
My favorite dessert of all time would have to be s’mores. I believe there are two reasons for this. The first reason would, of course, be the taste. Any good dessert has chocolate in it, so this obviously meets that criteria. I love the chocolate, the sweetness, and the texture of the marshmallow. And the […]
Top 8 Free Stuffed Peppers
My Top 8 Free Stuffed Peppers are free of ALL 8 major food allergens, but in my opinion, you wouldn’t even notice. This recipe has many benefits to it. First, it’s a quick recipe, which I greatly appreciate. While I love to cook, I like to have dinners that are quick and simple. Second, this […]
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 […]
Nut-Free Pesto Pasta with Tomatoes
My Pinterest is made up of thousands of pins, and while about half are recipes, not all are allergy-friendly recipes. I often come to realize that the allergy-friendly recipes I find on Pinterest are very complicated, or use ingredients that I can’t find at the Target across the street, let alone my own pantry and […]
