I totally hear you: they are not really considered a mainstream vegetable. I mean, could anyone even name a half-dozen recipes including them off the top of their head?  My only association with turnip  comes directly from my mom:  this little gem of a [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/turnip-and-carrots/feed/ 2 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/no-mayo-coleslaw-with-greens/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/no-mayo-coleslaw-with-greens/#comments Tue, 12 Jul 2011 16:49:53 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=2370 It’s been a nutty couple of months: plain and simple. It’s sort of crazy to look back and reflect upon the intensity of it, really. In April, my dad lost his younger brother. That was hard. He was the coolest. He lost his battle with cancer but I will never forget his broad smile, his [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/no-mayo-coleslaw-with-greens/feed/ 3 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/giving-thanks-whole-grain-gluten-free-egg-free-dairy-free-nut-free-waffles-recipe/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/giving-thanks-whole-grain-gluten-free-egg-free-dairy-free-nut-free-waffles-recipe/#comments Wed, 23 Feb 2011 15:03:03 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=2006 I didn’t wake up to an alarm this morning. Or my clock radio. I woke up to my 17 month old daughter singing to herself in her crib. In the dark of the early morning, I just lay there listening to her, entertained by the sound of her delightful la-la-las. A few minutes later, I [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/giving-thanks-whole-grain-gluten-free-egg-free-dairy-free-nut-free-waffles-recipe/feed/ 28 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-dairy-free-frozen-hot-chocolate/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-dairy-free-frozen-hot-chocolate/#comments Thu, 12 Aug 2010 16:54:32 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=1922 Life has shifted into high gear this summer. As a result, some weeks have passed since my last post. My mother-in-law, whom I adore, was here from South Africa for almost a month. With her she brought updates of how our family and friends are doing as well as stories about the World Cup and  [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-dairy-free-frozen-hot-chocolate/feed/ 8 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/maple-pecan-butter/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/maple-pecan-butter/#comments Wed, 12 May 2010 13:02:43 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=1833 Just to set the record straight, I have never ventured into the land of making my own nut butter. I always dismissed it, speculating that it was too complicated or time consuming a task. Now that I have made it – and understand how easy it is – I’m a little sad that I waited [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/maple-pecan-butter/feed/ 9 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-maple-strawberry-millet-oatmeal/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-maple-strawberry-millet-oatmeal/#comments Sat, 24 Apr 2010 12:14:03 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=1806 I’ve been away for a while because of our recent relocation across the country: we said farewell to Colorado in late March and arrived in New Jersey just as the moving truck began to unload our belongings.  A few rooms  still remind us that we are knee deep in boxes.

I totally agree. It is a challenge.

Within minutes of eating them her face becomes flushed with red silver-dollar sized circles – almost as if someone has applied blush to her barely 4 year old cheeks.  Strangely enough it’s not an effect produced by canned tomatoes (which can sometimes cause a reaction for some people) but fresh tomatoes.

What is this exactly?  Delicious, I think. It’s a grain free dessert which is perfect for summer. We had this last night after dinner and it wasn’t too heavy considering the summer heat. I considered adding in some additional summer fruits but in the end settled for strawberries and blackberries  – if you [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-strawberry-blackberry-crisp/feed/ 0 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-sugar-snap-pea-and-buttermilk-mint-soup/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/gluten-free-sugar-snap-pea-and-buttermilk-mint-soup/#comments Sun, 02 Aug 2009 22:27:41 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=1226 Several days ago, we had this unusual hiatus to our typical 95 degree July heat. We had three wonderful days of cloud cover and beautiful rain – with an amazing rare double rainbow thrown in for good measure. It looked like the pot of gold was hidden directly behind my neighbor’s house – just stunning.

We are back from our South African adventure. It was a long 36 hour journey back to our home sweet home but we made it in one piece. The time change (8 hours difference – backwards) has done a number on us. But, we are managing to make the transition, albeit slowly. I will be certain [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/curried-avocado-dip/feed/ 0 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/buckwheat-flake-granola-with-berries/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/buckwheat-flake-granola-with-berries/#comments Tue, 10 Mar 2009 17:09:26 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=1009 This is a recipe I adapted from Rose Carrarini’s Breakfast, Lunch, Tea cookbook. We had it for breakfast this morning and it was so delicious. Very satisfying.

But, I replaced it with protein rich Sunbutter (made from sunflower [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/sunbutter-cookie-bites/feed/ 8 http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/baked-stuffed-butternut-squash/ http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/baked-stuffed-butternut-squash/#comments Wed, 21 Jan 2009 16:05:27 +0000 Stephanie http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/?p=858 The last time we were visiting South Africa, my brother and sister-in-law had us over for dinner. Cynthia is a really good cook and the spread she so effortlessly prepared was delicious.  She baked some butternut squash and stuffed it with a rice and sauteed vegetable mixture. In my adaptation, I changed up the vegetable ingredients just a little bit. I couldn’t help add [...]]]> http://www.glutenfreebynature.com/articles-and-recipes/baked-stuffed-butternut-squash/feed/ 0
