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.

  1. 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.

Lectin Free Hot Cereal

One of the things I love to eat for breakfast during late fall and winter is hot cereal.  Most of us think 'Oatmeal' or 'Cream of Wheat' or something similar.  As a kid I really loved Malt-O-Meal.  This morning was cold (we got our first snow last night) and I needed ( NEEDED ) Hot Cereal for breakfast, so last night I put together my mini  size crock pot with Sorghum and Millet grain.  It turned out OH SO GOOD!   Give it a try and let me know what you think. 

Green Salsa Taco Style Soup

My refrigerator magnets spell out, "The Cold is Here!"  What is better on a cold day than homemade soup.   Keeping with my goal to be as lectin-free as possible I embarked on a goal to make something that would be warm and spicy without any beans. (I have issues eating too many beans too often)  I know, a tall order.  But then I came up with this Green Salsa Taco Style Soup.  If you don't have a problem with eating corn, you can substitute the Chayote squash and/or mushrooms for a large can of hominy.  But since I am no longer eating corn I went on the hunt for something else for my particular crock pot of soup. Give it a try.  We loved it enough to eat it two days in a row!  If you like it spicier, then add more Sriracha sauce to it.

Lectin Free Mini Baked Omlets

Occasionally I get tired of eating gluten free muffins for breakfast, so I have come up with another way to utilize my muffin pans.  (By the way if anyone is wanting a gift suggestion for me, I could use a new set of muffin pans.  Mine are getting pretty worn out.) These mini omelets can be made and frozen in a ziploc bag to be used on those mornings when time is short or you just don't feel like cooking anything.  Of course, they are awesome right out of the oven. Because I eat the Plant Paradox diet I only use goat products unless it is a very aged, hard cheese that has fermented and and that fermentation process has changed the chemical makeup of the cow's milk it is made from.  I also use Eggland eggs which are h igher in Vitamin E, Omega-3, Iodine, and Lutein than ordinary eggs.   And, I also try and use organic vegetables  and fruits.   I never believed  it made a difference  until I had back surgery and suffered a heart attack.  But simply by changing my diet I
