Foreword by Dr. Brian Rottinghaus, M.D.
I have been telling myself to make an attempt at making pulled pork for a while but I just was not quite sure how to go about it. With the recipe I found and with my usual alterations to make it completely “Collette- friendly,” I did it with flying colors.
I knew I hit a bingo with this recipe when I expected the cooked meat to last us about 5 days worth of dinners, but my husband and son could not get enough of it…5 pounds of meat barely lasted us two meals.
I found two sweet potatoes and thought I would try to create a savory muffin instead of doing the usual sweet potato fries for dinner.
Our general contractor happened to come over to do some repairs when the muffins were sitting out to cool in the kitchen. He is a very healthy eater and grabbed one to try. He took one bite and didn’t let any crumbles escape his hands. He walked out with a very happy belly.
My husband said, “Honey, this time these are really good!” So I had to write down the recipe and share it with you all.
Kale can easily be mistaken as that healthy, I should eat more of it food, but I really don’t want to. With this recipe, you will want to eat kale daily. Yes, its that delicious.
We are not pie lovers but this one is awesome! I recently purchased my first pre-made Gluten Free Graham Style Pie Crust by Del Mi and wanted to try it out but with what filling? I took my Pear Blueberry Crisp recipe, altered the portions, and filled the pie crust with it. There is NO SUGAR in the filling except for the natural sugar in the fruit.
I created this recipe since I could not find taro root when we moved to Austin, Texas. I have looked high and low but yet I still cannot locate a store that sells it. I replaced the taro in my Taro Avocado Toast with yucca. It doesn’t taste as buttery but the consistency is the same and its yummy flavor is still there!
To help me adjust to the extremely hot 104F degree weather, I began to eat more ice cream. It was tough to find a tasty gluten free, dairy free ice cream option at the store, so I thought about making my own and here it was happened.
Who doesn’t love avocado? So many food groups can mixed with it to make it sweet, sour, savory, or just fabulously delicious! If you want a change from guacamole, this recipe is for you! I was inspired while at Tacodeli today after seeing their avocado yogurt salad dressing.
Buying nut butter can be a drag a super time consuming.You can never get too many Omega 3s in your diet, especially when trying to figure out your toddler’s diet!
There are so many gluten free chicken recipes out there. Why not try eating something other than chicken, gluten free, that is encrusted with quinoa or potato or anything else that is naturally gluten free?
My household believes you can eat Quinoa with any meal.
Surprisingly, you would never know there is bean in this mix just by tasting them. Yum!
This is the perfect dessert for those who want just a little something sweet and definitely for dark chocolate lovers!
When you move its best to try to purge the kitchen of all of the food instead of trying to pack it all.
An old neighbor of mine tried these and texted me later: “ They’re delicious and I’m shocked there isn’t added whey. You should sell these!”
Miss those simple, little comfort foods that everyone else takes for granted when grabbing a quick bite for breakfast? I sure do. My friend and neighbor mommy friend said it was the best donut she has ever had! She can eat gluten if she wants, so this gave me real confidence!
Great for holiday parties and super easy to prepare! These are for when you want something just a little sweet, but not over the top.
Since moving to Austin, taro root has been impossible to find so far, so thought I would try making what I usually make with taro, and make it with yucca root instead.
Looking for the perfect holiday cookie and muffin, something that is sweet yet savory! Who would have thought Pomegranate, Pistachio and Chocolate would be so well paired together?
So I already have created my Pistachio Avocado Hummus which can be found in my cookbook. However one can never have too many dips! Chowhound did a write up on Hummus and I decided to take their version of Cauliflower Hummus and make it mine.
My son is an empanada lover! Its tough to find gluten free empanadas at restaurants and the grocery store, so I told myself, I have to figure out how to make them at home. It only took me 4 attempts….
Summer time has you eating squash constantly since its super inexpensive at the supermarket and it just tastes super delicious with any summertime BBQ!
Chef David Chang inspired me when he shared the idea that some of the ugliest dishes are the most delicious. This is not the ugliest dish but it could fit in that category since its not the prettiest dish.
Sous Chef Rhys loves his Tex Mex style beans. Instead of wasting money at a restaurant I had to invent my own which I was fortunately successful at last night! I had tried making them in the oven and they were a disaster.
My son loves hummus and I had some basil we picked that was going to go bad...TADA! I used it as a salad dressing atop my salad today for lunch. For dinner tonight, we plan to eat it as a dip for the chicken with Texas Style Black Bean tacos!
Now you can have Pumpkin Pie on-the-go and its less messy than eating the leftover pumpkin pie from Thanksgiving dinner with your coffee, as the Eater article mentions.
Broccoli is one of the vegetables that we know we should eat more of but its so tough to convince yourself to buy them at the store, since you have no clue how to make them palatable.
What has turmeric added for flu season? What can be savory and sweet at the same time? My book has a pistachio avocado hummus recipe. So I said, lets try something a bit different today!
I said to myself, lets try to make Gluten Free Crab Cakes! It can’t be that tough and my new oven needs to be used anyways.
My husband kept reaching for more and said they tasted like a regular crabcakes, which is good when you are trying to replicate a recipe that was originally made with gluten in it!
Let's end the summer season with a combination of flavors that pop in your mouth.
This past Labor Day weekend we were asked to bring a salad for a BBQ. While doing my yogalates (combination of Yoga and Pilates) I asked myself, which salad?
Texas Hill Country and Fredricksburg

I have been trying to think of ways to spice things up for meals and make a different type of ground beef burger that my toddler will still enjoy. Quinoa came to mind!

Imagine this: you live your whole life thinking that belly aches, skin rashes, bloating, and cold hands and feet are normal. At age 31, at family reunion, a Dr. Cousin suggested I try omitting gluten and dairy from my diet after watching me struggle with every meal and that choice created a personal revolution!

I was faced with a tremendous challenge months ago and I finally want to share this awesome recipe I created, which I remake almost monthly when we run out. I had to create something totally off the wall for breakfast that weekend!
