Who doesn’t love a hearty dish like Beef Stroganoff on a cold fall or winter day? I know I do! Last winter I just had to do without; we didn’t have enough safe foods in mine or Zac’s diet to make such a delicious dinner. But this year, well, I have … Continue reading
July worked really well for my work schedule, in the end. Even if I hadn’t called out sick, I only would have worked 8 days total. Five of those days, though, started last Wednesday. I didn’t get home until almost 2:00a.m. Sunday night/Monday morning, and I am still exhausted from … Continue reading
Saturday we did the scariest thing we’ve done since the first food trial last summer. We fed Zac chicken. I knew it was coming up; we’d decided that if the reintroduction of cucumbers went well, we would call them a pass on Friday and start chicken on Saturday. I knew this. … Continue reading

This was dinner for the boys last night: Pretty unremarkable looking, I suppose…until you find out that these quesadillas were made with homemade vegan cheddar that TASTES GOOD!!! I wish I could take credit for this recipe, but I cannot. The brilliant mind … Continue reading
One thing I figured out early on in my elimination diet is that I’m basically eating a modified (and greatly limited) Paleo Diet. I’m not convinced that strictly Paleo is the way to go, but I can’t argue that grains (specifically wheat) and sugar are poison for my body! Consequently, … Continue reading
Years ago I found a recipe for something called “Chicken Hash” in a magazine. I never actually made it, but I saved it because it looked really good. With this dual-elimination-diet-thing going on in my house, I’m scrambling like mad to find edible meals to serve my family. (Delicious is … Continue reading
