I am so thrilled to share with you the best holiday recipe I have come up with this year — Pumpkin Spice Cake with Gingersnap Crust! While I don’t endorse eating treats very often on the Autoimmune Protocol, I think that everyone needs a compliant dessert recipe they can share with their family and friends during the holidays. Since I have stopped eating sugar, ...
Pumpkin Spice Cake with Gingersnap Crust
Salmon with Citrus-Cranberry Relish
Wondering what to make with that leftover Citrus-Cranberry Relish I posted last week? I made the incredible discovery that it is absolutely AMAZING as a topping for baked salmon. The cranberries cook ever so slightly, giving a tart and festive flavor to an otherwise simple salmon fillet. Although I haven’t tried it yet, I imagine it would be delicious on top of other types ...
Citrus-Cranberry Relish
When I moved to Seattle a few years ago, I started a Thanksgiving collaboration with my friend Brenna Rose Miller (who is also the stylist for my upcoming cookbook!). Both of our families are originally from California, but over time have migrated to the northwest. Every year we get together and have a big celebration. Back then I was vegan – and many in ...
Apple-Cranberry Holiday Stuffing
It has been awhile since I have had a recipe to post on the blog – truth be told I have been so busy cooking for the cookbook photo shoots that I have not had time for developing new recipes. Since the shoots ended a couple of weeks ago, I have been hard at work coming up with new ideas for the holiday season, starting ...
Cinnamon-Sage Baked Delicata Squash
If I had to choose my favorite squash, it definitely would be the sweet, nutty delicata. Every time September rolls around, I am thrilled at the sight of this little guy’s reappearance at the farmer’s market. This is a vegetable that doesn’t need any fancy preparation – I most often eat it simply sprinkled with some fresh herbs and cinnamon. 4.3 from 6 reviews ...
Summer Blackberry Pie
I often get asked about what to do with the surplus of summer blackberries that pop up in yards across the country this time of year. Before I embarked on the autoimmune protocol, I would make blackberry pie at every summer’s end. This tradition ended, as I had not been able to come up with a suitable crust recipe. Recently, I came up with a ...
Simple Beet and Fennel Salad
I came up with this colorful and delicious salad one day after harvesting all of these vegetables from my garden. You don’t have to use different varieties of beets, but I found that using a few different kinds created a vibrant plate. This time of year, I find myself looking forward to the cooler fall weather so that I can get back to my usual ...
