Sweet Sundays: Mama Says, "Eat Your Oats!" PDF Print E-mail
Sunday, 11 October 2009

No Whey, Mama Overnight Oatmeal Cookies (Dairy-Free, Nut-Free)Approximately five years ago, when I founded Go Dairy Free, the blogging world had yet to take off. But I quickly discovered one comrad out in the field, Sarah of No Whey, Mama. It was hard not to fall in love with her mom-friendly (aka, quick and easy) and kid-friendly (aka, really yummy) recipes, but beyond the food, she quickly evolved into a very good, dairy-free friend. Sarah has since served as a recipe tester and editor for the book, Go Dairy Free, and is a regular reviewer and editor for this website. But I just realized the other day, I haven't featured any of her wonderful recipes in quite some time.

Well past due for a No Whey, Mama feature, I thought two of her fantastic, oat-based, dessert recipes would surely be well received. Not to mention, warm apple crisp and hearty oatmeal cookies seem quite seasonal, don't you think? Enjoy ...

Frugal Foodie Friday: Healthy, Dairy-Free Smoked Salmon Crustless "Quiche" PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 09 October 2009

Healthy, Dairy-Free Smoked Salmon QuicheSince my last Dutch Baby venture was such a dee-licious success, I set out to create a savory version the other day. But, I couldn't stop with that one challenge alone. Oh no, silly me decided to go for the gusto and make it grain-free too! Luckily it worked out okay, but I used ground almonds, and was surprised at how bready the first trial turned out. It was good, but somehow the texture didn't really go with the flavor. So in round two, I switched to cashews, using half the amount, and a star was born!

However, this new concoction wasn't really a Dutch Baby anymore. Determined to find a name, I went online to read about the various types of egg dishes (yes, I do waste too much time on completely useless activities once in a while). The most comparable dish I could find was a quiche, but since this recipe contains no cheese, cream, or dairy of any kind, it seemed like a bit of a stretch. I mean, a healthy quiche?

I have never really had a quiche, so I turned to my husband for his taste-testing expertise. He said, "It's kind of like a quiche, but different. It's good though!" And thus, the Smoked Salmon Crustless (Sort of) Quiche was born ... View the Recipe on One Frugal Foodie.

 
Savor Sweet Nutrition with a Kid-Friendly, Dairy-Free "Wild Smoothie" PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 07 October 2009

Kristin O'Connor's Wild SmoothieMy husband and I are smoothie fanatics. It is a delicious and dare I say indulgent way to inject healthy fruits, vegetables, and a dose of protein into your diet. So when Kristin O'Connor of Nourish This sent in her "Wild Smoothie" to share on Go Dairy Free, I jumped at the recipe.

Kristin said, "With berries, spinach, protein powder and flaxseed, the Wild Smoothie has important nutrients that growing bodies need. It's a great recipe to get kids involved with, and it's tasty!" She isn't kidding either. Kristin shows us just how kid-friendly this recipe is in a demo video on Healthy Child. So read on for the recipe, and head over to Healthy Child for her helpful how-to video ...

Frugal Foodie Friday: Uber-Rich Peanut Butter Ice Cream with Peanut Butter Pieces PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 02 October 2009
Dairy-Free, Soy-Free Peanut Butter Ice Cream with Peanut Butter Chips

I wasn’t sure about featuring an ice cream recipe as we are heading into fall, especially since I still want to tinker with this one a bit, and I had already packed my ice cream scoop (no photo-worthy mounds of ice cream), but the response I received on my blog was an overwhelming, "it's never too late for ice cream!"

This Uber-Rich Peanut Butter Ice Cream is of course dairy-free, but it is also egg-free, vegan, soy-free, gluten-free, and as I made it, free from refined sugars. Not to mention, the entire recipe cost less than $2 to make! Quite a bargain compared to those new coconut milk-based pints at Whole Foods for up to $7 a pop.

The PB chunks are a version of the Peanut Butter “Chips” from my book, Go Dairy Free: The Guide and Cookbook. The “Chips” are fairly firm and would probably be teeth-breakers in ice cream, so I softened them a bit to still be relatively firm yet forgiving in the ice cream.

Sweet Sundays: Delicate Crispy Almond Cookies (Gluten-Free) PDF Print E-mail
Sunday, 27 September 2009

Gluten-Free Deliciously Dairy-Free Almond CookiesPerhaps you missed the news about Gluten-Free Deliciously, a new gluten-free/wheat-free cookbook that offers many dairy-free and egg-free options, or maybe you were just waiting for a little sample of what's inside? For the latter, I am here to oblige ... or should I say the author, Jennifer Cinquepalmi, was more than happy to provide a teaser recipe. She promptly submitted this dairy-free sample (and photo) from the cookie department of Gluten-Free Deliciously, with the following recipe notes:

"This recipe boasts of having no butter, shortening, or margarine, making it a tasty treat without the fat of most cookies. It is also egg-free and gluten-free.  Be sure to measure the ingredients accurately."

Frugal Foodie Friday: Dairy-Free Creamy Thai Tomato Soup PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 25 September 2009

Dairy-Free Creamy Thai Tomato SoupTwo weeks ago, I was in the kitchen, experimenting yet again. I have been in constant pursuit of the perfect Thai Lettuce Wraps. It was my fifth round of attempts (yes, I said fifth). All prior recipes were okay, but not quite there, so I decided to go with a different inspiration, one with a tomato-y base.  I used a recipe as my general guide, and all seemed to be going well, until I added the coconut milk. Way, way too much. The seasonings were so diluted in the sauce that I knew the remaining chunks of veggies and meat wouldn't be flavorful enough on their own.

I was about to give in, serve them in the lettuce wraps, and chalk it up as another mediocre attempt when something compelled me to just give the sauce a little taste to see if it was worth salvaging in some other way. IT WAS DELICIOUS. I seriously impressed myself. Not wanting to waste a drop, I added more light coconut milk and served it up as a chunky soup / stew. We licked our bowls clean within mere minutes. Needless to say, I have already made this Creamy Thai Tomato Soup again, and again. You can view the full recipe (with vegan option) on One Frugal Foodie.

 
Sweet Sundays: Raw for Dessert PDF Print E-mail
Sunday, 20 September 2009

Raw For Dessert Chocolate Lava CakeIt seems that raw foods are all the rage these days, at least in health-conscious circles and for more open-minded foodies. It can be a proposition that's a bit difficult to swallow, whether you follow the guidelines in full or attempt a diet of partially raw edibles and cooked dishes, due to difficulty more than anything else. Preparing a few simple snacks such as crackers or cookies? No problem, only it will take you at least half a day to dehydrate anything to the point of approaching crispiness. Craving something comforting like meatloaf or veggie burgers? Easy enough to fix, but you may just need to hunt down rare, hard to find ingredients online.

The worst offenders, however, tend to be the desserts. Typically requiring crazy equipment, expensive ingredients, and up to two days of waiting before you can even take the first bite, it's hard for this die-hard baker to fully embrace such a diet. That doesn't mean I would snub a whole wide universe of vegan food, simply based on the concept of applying no heat above 110 degrees. Always eager to try new things, I was excited to get my hands on a promising new book called Raw for Dessert, by Jennifer Cornbleet ...
