Plant Paradox friendly Jerusalem Style Bagels

Earlier this year two of my friends took a guided tour to Israel. They saw and ate many things, but the food they remembered the most were the "Jerusalem Style Bagels" that they ate most mornings for breakfast.

I found the traditional recipe online, and reworked it to be Plant Paradox friendly. They are always a big hit when I make them, like I did yesterday for my Sunday morning Bible class.

I eat them dipped in oil, oil & vinegar, spread with butter, or a soft goat cheese product. The following recipe can also be modified to include sourdough starter (3/4 cup and reduce the flour by about the same amount.) Enjoy making them, and please enjoy eating them! 😄

Ham-Mushroom-Potato Soup

Potatoes on a lectin free diet?!? Per Dr. Gundry yes if you pressure cook them (I used my steam vegetables setting), but only do it occasionally. They are still heavy in carbs and if you are diabetic like me, they will make your blood sugar go up some. With that being said, I went about creating a yummy, creamy potato soup like the ones my husband used to make for us, only more compliant with the Plant Paradox way of eating.

Grain-Free Harvest-Spice Cookies

This is the time of the year I have traditionally loved cooking with pumpkin. Since I am eating Lectin Free I have had to look for a way to meet that need by tricking my taste buds into believing I am eating pumpkin. My friend Shelly, who is eating a Keto diet, gave me a cookie yesterday at the quilting group we belong to. One bite and I said, "I MUST HAVE THAT RECIPE!" She sent me a link this morning. I manipulated it for my specific eating needs, went immediately to the kitchen, and this cookie is what I came up with. If you can afford to cook with Monk Fruit, do so. It has an awesome sweet flavor. If not, then like me, mix Stevia and Swerve together as indicated in the recipe. It will still give you an awesome soft cookie with all the traditional fall tastes we have grown to love.

Welcome to My New Blog

A few years ago, I shut down my blog on "Tiny Homes". I didn't think I would ever have another blog, but this week a Facebook friend suggested instead of having a private group, I should jump into the deep water and begin a blog for those trying to eat Lectin Free, Heart Healthy, Sugar Free, Keto, and Paleo Friendly. (Did I cover just about everything!?! LOL) So Here I go . . .On October 13, 2017 after finishing the book, "The Plant Paradox" by Dr. Steven Gundry, I threw out everything I thought I knew about living heart healthy and sugar free . ("Heart Healthy and Sugar Free" was the name of a private FB group I started in 2016) Almost a year later, having worn out my book, and having embraced the ideas he wrote about as my own "Normal" way of living, I find myself 40 pounds lighter, and more clear minded than I have been in decades. I just want to scream out, where were the experts in 1984 when I first started experiencing diff...
