To start of the year, I’d like to share this recipe that I came up with last night. What happens when there’s only three people in your family and the organic turkey that you order is 3.8kg??? You have LOTS of leftovers!

This cauliflower rice is ready in under 10 mins, uses regular, non-exotic ingredients (so probably won’t require any complicated shopping trips – handy at this time of year) and is (wait for it) gluten, dairy, nut, sugar, soy, egg, legume and starch free, suitable for paleo, GAPS, SCD, vegan, vegetarian and ketogenic diets to boot.
I know it must seem like all I post about is muffins lately. Let’s be honest I’ve linked these muffins in countless posts and just recently shared this recipe with you all as well. There is a reason for this muffin-obession however. They are quick and easy to make, keep for a week in the fridge, are a nutrient dense source of fuel and taste absolutely delicious.
This recipe is a wonderful ‘easy dinner’ treat that can be whipped up in a jiffy. I made this for my mum and step dad last night and they raved about it. I love having the chance to get creative in the kitchen (with less parameters than normal) and last night was no exception.
This Smoothie is made on a base of homemade Kultured Wellness coconut yoghurt. I am a sucker for shop bought coconut yoghurts, but it sure is cheaper to purchase the starter culture and make your own from scratch. Do I always make my own? No. Honestly, I still prefer the taste and consistency of a good Coyo (or equivalent), but when I’m feeling thrifty, the homemade variety does the job.
You may remember this post where I shared that my healing (for lack of a better word) “journey” is changing directions. If not, you might like to go back and have a read.
Do you ever set out to make a basic recipe, only to be overwhelmed by an intuitive plea to modify the recipe to such an extent that you manifest an entirely original product?
I was just going to do a basic date, cashew and cacao wafer bliss ball recipe, but then I saw all the other ingredients in the pantry and completely changed my mind.
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.
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.
