I personally love banana pancakes or pumpkin pancakes on those occasions where I want to relive my childhood where ‘breakfast for dinner’ was a regular occurrence. I actually enjoy the aforementioned recipes more than the ‘glutenated’ (a word which here means; “containing gluten”) pancakes I devoured in my youth … That said, Mamma T doesn’t isn’t quite ready for fruit and veggie-based flapjacks … she wants ‘normal’ pancakes. Sighs.

Thai Curry With A Difference
Last night I had the pleasure of cooking dinner for my mum and stepdad. Usually I cook GAPS food for myself and mum cooks what she calls ‘regular food’ for everyone else dining at our place that night. I miss cooking some of my old favourites, such as a simple chicken curry with steamed Jasmine rice. I always jump at the chance to cook a meal for the rest of the family.
Sweet and Simple Green Coconut Smoothie
No rant today.
Behold potassium-rich, gut-loving, bowel-cleansing heaven in a glass. This is one of my favourite summer treats.
Beetroot Chippies
This recipe is one of my new favourites. Although beware. The beetroot will stain your hands something shocking. There are a gazillion things worse than flaunting pink-tinged flesh on your palms. I figure it’s a small price to pay.
Rebecca’s broth
Last Thursday I was lucky enough to be cooked a delicious GAPS friendly meal by my friend Rebecca. She did a slow cooked beef roast with steamed veggies (cauliflower, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans) and roasted baby dutch carrots and butternut pumpkin. It was so special to be able to go somewhere for dinner and not have to take my own food. Thanks girl, I really appreciate it.
I Finally Made My Own Sauerkraut!
I’ve finally mustered up the confidence to make my own sauerkraut! I’ve heard scary things about fermenting your own cabbage – mainly that it can go very, very wrong and go off and smell all kinds of awful (like after your dad’s been to the bathroom – yep that kind of awful). But I figured if I can ferment my own cream then I can surely ferment some cabbage and I’ll never know until I try, right?
Thai green chicken soup
This soup is seriously good and a nice break from the regular appearances of pumpkin and cauliflower soup that tend to share the starring role in my kitchen. My mum (a non GAPS taste-tester I might add) had several soup-gasms whilst devouring this creamy bowl of yumminess.
Banana Mug or Pancakes
I’m just going get straight to the point. This batter is good. I mean really good. As in I-can’t-believe-it’s-just-banana-and-eggs good. I’m not even going to ramble and give you a cute little story as to the background of this recipe. Nope, let’s just get cooking!
The Creamy Green One
This is a spin off of my cauliflower soup recipe, omitting the fluffy white cauliflower florets for their humble cousin, the vibrantly green broccoli.
It’s a great way to get your greens in when it’s cold and your favorite salads and green smoothie recipes (despite their deliciousness) sound unappealingly chilly.
Enter Shrek soup (or if you don’t have kids; creamy broccoli soup)
