food is a common love for every member in my home. making a healthy scrumptious meal for my family to enjoy is a way to show my love.

last year I discovered my daughter and I were allergic to some food. she was having trouble potty training so I put us on an elimination diet and her troubles cleared up. at that point it felt like we both had reactions to soy, refined sugar, dairy, wheat and fish. being a vegetarian already, the list of food to consume dropped dramatically. through research and much trial and error I came to learn wheat is in EVERYTHING! and soy! about 6 months ago my daughter and I went to an allergist and he confirmed we were both allergic to wheat and cantaloupe. since then we eat little of the things we have reactions to and no wheat.

all recipes are simple and relatively fast. we have 4 people in our family so most will feed four. everything posted is wheat free, little dairy and soy. I am currently putting together a cookbook that will be simple, wheat free and almost vegan (I eat honey).

guacamole meal


when I’m pregnant and someone says something and my tastebuds go “yummmm” the desire won’t leave my head until they are satisfied. this is exactly what happened this morning. my friend said guacamole when I said salsa and that was it I had to make some. lately I make a lot of “snacks” that my daughter and I fill up on and have been neglecting our meals. guacamole could easily be a snack but I set out to make it a meal. SUCESS!!! DELICIOUS and NUTRITIOUS!!
supplies:
1 avocado
1 small tomato
1/2 small onion
2t fresh or frozen cilantro
1 1/2 radish
1t salt
1/2t pepper
about 1c cubed firm tofu
4 brussels sprouts
1 clove of garlic
2t lemon juice
first i mixed all my guacamole ingredients to make sure I got that taste on point. so avo, tomato, onion, cilantro, s & p, lemon juice. then i added radish and garlic to make sure i was still digging it. I WAS! so i finished off and added all the ingredients. now you don’t have to taste test along the way as I did, you can just take my word… IT’S GOOOOOD!!! use some carrots, gf bread and chips for dipping and your set!
+ there are veggies, protein and grains >what a perfect lunch!
