Allergy Free Thousand Island Dressing (And Why It Is Named That)

admin May 26, 2013 4 Comments
I like to check out cookbooks from the library occasionally.  I found Cooking Free by Carol Fenster, PhD.  To me, it appears to be one of the “first” allergy friendly cookbooks having been published 8 years ago.  I’m actually surprised that I had not heard of or seen her cookbook before now.  While flipping through the book I came across a recipe for Thousand Island Dressing.  I was...

I like to have something “fun” to eat for days like Memorial Day, July 4 etc.  Something red, white and blue to help commemorate the day.  But I also do not always have time to make something complicated.  But these little parfaits are just the quickest, easiest and cutest thing to make!   I used little plastic shot glasses for these parfaits.  Making them “mini” is great for a...

Have you ever cut an avocado open and it’s just mush?  Or how about cut one open and it’s so hard you cannot scoop it out?  Do you struggle with knowing when an avocado is “just right” to eat?   I did until I found a great tip about avocado readiness.  I like to give credit where credit is due, but I have been using this tip for so long now, I am not sure where I read it or found...

Grilled Asparagus

Despite the cold and gloomy weather I have started grilling season.  And one thing I love to grill is asparagus!   Asparagus used to be one of my least favorite vegetables, but it has now become one of my top 3 vegetables.  I think it is because of the grill.  There is just something about grilled vegetables.  It brings out an irresistible flavor.   If you do not care for asparagus, give...

Say hello to a new way to prepare and serve pasta.  Well, maybe it is not new to you, but it was to my family.  This pasta dish is now our favorite and far surpasses a jar of spaghetti sauce on noodles.  (That is still a dish that graces our table, though).    There is something about food allergies.  It expands your horizons.   Prior to food allergies I probably would not even have tried...
