Healthy Baked Mac and Cheese (DF option)

My father died 2 weeks ago today. I left my tower on Tuesday morning, knowing I needed to get home to see him. He wasn’t doing well. In fact, he was starting to spiral downwards. He had the advanced stages of dementia. I did not get there in time. That part is going to be…

I had a mail delivery yesterday. I hardly see people, so a delivery (people and mail) is like Christmas!

Brie and Walnut Portobello Mushrooms with a Tomato Balsamic Emulsion

While the hubbies away the wife will play! In my house that means making all kinds of yummy food that wouldn’t really go over well, like popcorn for dinner for instance.

TV Tuesday #29 – 10 Minute Homemade Hot Sauce

As part of my own personal whole food journey, I find that one of the hardest thing to replace are convenience items like pre-made sauces (any hot sauce addicts out there?). It’s gotten waaayyyy better, but in the beginning it was so challenging in fact, (at least that’s how I felt) that it almost made…

TV Tuesday #12 – Aioli Versus Mayonnaise

So what is all the fuss about aioli? I’m sure you’ve seen it on every restaurant menu out there. Isn’t it just a big blob of mayo? Well yes and no. Chances are, if you’re at a regular ho hum restaurant, it probably is just mayo with some spices or garlic added to it. Though…

TV Tuesday #10: How Make Maple Balsamic Reduction

One of the most important aspects of cooking with real food is making it taste amazing. Often our palettes are use to heavily seasoned food (to hide all the preservatives), so foods in their natural state can taste bland to some. As you become more accustomed to the natural flavors not much else will be…
