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 difficulties with my health and weight? They were stuck in the "this is how we've always done it" rut. Thanks Dr. Gundry for opening my eyes and saving my life.

Now I want to share with you how to embrace "Lectin Free" eating as your new normal, and cook meals that you and your family will still enjoy.

Plant Paradox Friendly Peach and Pecan Muffins

I love my go-to muffins, but today I just needed something a little different. Peaches, Pecans, and Nutmeg are the difference, plus I swapped out the sorghum flour for amaranth flour. My homemade peach jam sweetened with stevia and erythritol is very good with them too! Have fun making and eating them!

Grain-Free, Sugar-Free and Lactose-Free MAGIC COOKIE BARS

Magic Cookie Bars were always a favorite of mine when I was growing up and then I made them for my own children. Wanting to be able to experience the same awesome taste as a Lectin Free eater I went to town making it compliable. Make sure you plan ahead, because they do need to sit in the refrigerator overnight before cutting into their chocolaty goodness.

Sweet Potato-Apple Butter

I was at a craft show over the weekend and bought a small jar of Pumpkin-Apple Butter from one of the vendors. Not at all on my diet and chalked full of those lectins I have give up. Well, I bought it for some muffins I made to take to my Bible study and everyone loved it so I decided I had to find a way to manipulate the recipe so I could enjoy it too. It was so simple of a conversion I didn't even finish a cup of tea while doing it! It is full of all those traditional fall flavors so many of us love to eat. Hope you enjoy it too.
