I’ve teamed again with Jessica of Jessica’s Natural Foods and this time I’ve turned her organic Vanilla Syrup into caramel! When just made and loose, you have a non-dairy caramel sauce that you can pour over- well anything- and then dose it with a splash of sea salt. YUM! After […]

Cherry-Berry Granola Stuffing
Jessica, of Jessica’s Natural Foods, asked me to choose one of her granola’s and create another recipe for her. I chose the nut-free (except for coconut) Gluten-Free Cherry & Berry Granola; so my grandchildren, who are allergic to nuts, could sample my new dish. This granola, like all of Jessica’s […]
Gingersnap Crust
Making a pie crust from ginger snaps is so much easier than rolling out a pastry crust! This is the perfect crust for a mild filling that doesn’t have to be baked. I use it for my Pumpkin Chiffon Pie. The spiciness and crispiness of the crust provides the perfect […]
Brown Rice with Zucchini and Onions
Brown Rice with Zucchini and Onions goes under the heading of comfort food. My adult son had about two cups of it for lunch and asked for more. He was out of luck! The family had gotten there before him and eaten most of it. Zucchini and onions add richness […]
Potato Latkes
There are at least two major debates when it comes to making the ultimate Potato Latkes. One- shred the potatoes by hand or in a processor. I grew up with hand shredded potatoes and have happily switched over to using a processor. My hands are much happier and there is […]
Apple and Pomegranate Crêpes
Have your All-Purpose Crepes ready and the rest is a snap. I make Apple and Pomegranate Crêpes with sliced apples mixed with pomegranate seeds. You sauté everything with a fresh Vanilla bean and douse it with Apple Liqueur! You could eat this with a spoon or over ice cream; but […]
Rice Stuffing with Pearl Onions and Dried Fruit
Tired of bread stuffing, make this Rice Stuffing with Pearl Onions and Dried Fruit instead of-or in addition to your bread stuffing. I use this vegan and gluten free stuffing with turkey, Cornish hens or just as a side dish with roast chicken or even fish. You can play around […]
Blueberry Sauce
Sometimes, you just need a little Blueberry Sauce. When you make pancakes or french toast and are bored with maple syrup-use blueberry sauce. When that vanilla ice cream looks bare and you need a change from hot fudge-use blueberry sauce. When you want a change from orange or cherry sauce […]
All-Purpose Crêpes
Some of my fondest food memories are of savoring Crêpes Suzette being flamed at the table at a wonderful French restaurant. I enjoyed the elegance of the set up: the lightly cooked crêpes, the butter, the fresh orange juice, the orange zest, the sugar and the orange liqueur all lined […]
Baked Apples
I’ve loved Baked Apples ever since I was a child. I love the texture- soft and smooth like applesauce; but firm enough to hold its shape. I love scraping the apple off the skin and then eating the skin by itself. There are so many variations of Baked Apples. You […]
