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.

    I just followed my own directions 😊 and this revised recipe makes almost 18 cups. The reason, in the original recipe I forgot to include the water! LOL. Sweet potatoes are more dense by nature than pumpkin, so water has to be added to it where the pumpkin version does not.

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.

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! 😄
