Thanks King Arthur Flour!

Before my gluten-free days I loved using the recipes that King Arthur Flour (KAF) had on their website.  Since then not so much.  So earlier this year I asked them if their kitchen would work up some truly gluten free recipes that would also taste good.  This week in their catalogue I saw they had a Chocolate Torte recipe that had absolutely no wheat, rice, oat or barley flour in it.  

 Of course, I also don't use sugar or sugary products like honey in my baking since I am also diabetic, and I don't use cow milk products. . . so. . . .you guessed it, I adapted KAF's awesome recipe to fit my other needs and IT WAS SO GOOD!  It met my need for a chocolaty dessert on so many levels.  

 Thanks King Arthur!

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.

What are Lectins?

Dr. Gundry, m y health hero and the author of The Plant Paradox, has just posted a video on YouTube about what lectins are and why are they bad for you.  He explains it so simply.  Take a moment to watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRB7OzGupTY

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.
