I have a definite weakness for sticky-sweet-spicy chicken wing sauces, and this might be the ultimate. I know, I say that every time, but when you have to keep tasting the sauce “just to make sure it’s still ok” while the wings cook, you realize that some good things are about to happen to your… Continue reading Honey Mustard Wings with a Kick

Banana Date Walnut Bread (grain-free)
Faced with rapidly blackening bananas in the fruit bowl, I turned to the ever-popular means of using them up…banana bread. My old recipe for banana bread used wheat flour, but thankfully these non-yeast breads adapt well to using almond flour. The other big change in this recipe is the lack of processed sugar. After 3… Continue reading Banana Date Walnut Bread (grain-free)
Lemon Bars (gluten and grain-free, dairy-free)
Lemon bars seem to be a nice, light dessert, with their innocent-looking sweet tartness and summery color.

I had written them off, until I came… Continue reading Lemon Bars (gluten and grain-free, dairy-free)

I’m pretty fond of a good sweet-salty combination, which led me to the recipe… Continue reading Korean Honey-Sesame Chicken Skewers
Lime in the Coconut Cheesecake
Gluten-free, baked cheesecake… Modified from A Meandering Mango’s Baked Citrus Cheesecake It’s been a while since we’ve indulged in a decadent dessert – we unanimously voted for cheesecake! It is rich and satisfying, and goes well with the fresh fruit that is available in abundance this time of year. However, we didn’t want to derail… Continue reading Lime in the Coconut Cheesecake
Salmon with Chipotle-Lime Glaze
As we enjoyed this meal, it occurred to us that it might be the healthiest combination of food ever! Not that it really mattered, because it was quite tasty and we would have eaten every bite even it it was chock full of benzene and trans fats. Well, not really…we do try to avoid foods… Continue reading Salmon with Chipotle-Lime Glaze
Roasted Coconut Cashew Nuts
Adapted from Thai The Essence of Asian Cooking, Judy Bastyra with recipes by Becky Johnson. In anticipation of our flight to Albuquerque this weekend, I have been looking for some interesting, primal-friendly snacks for the plane. Traveling in coach, one usually gets the choice of peanuts, cookie wafers, or chips – or a deep breath… Continue reading Roasted Coconut Cashew Nuts
