Gluten Free Pizza Crust

Posted on June 20, 2018 | 4 comments

I have many family members that eat gluten free, and they tell me the thing they miss most is pizza! Well, I love to tinker with recipes, so I decided to created a gluten free pizza crust recipe that is just like a traditional thin Italian pizza!

When I was researching for this recipe, I saw that most recipe developers were using a gluten free all purpose flour mix. Most mixes are slightly different, so if you didn’t use the same brand as the recipe developer, you might not get the same results. Continue reading →

Homemade Pizza Sauce from Tomato Sauce

Posted on June 15, 2018 | 12 comments

I love to make homemade pizza, so I thought, why not the sauce too? Pizza sauce is not a consistent recipe at all! There are a million different ways to make it, and today I am sharing my homemade pizza sauce from tomato sauce recipe!

While doing research for this recipe, I found a lot of different sauce recipes. Some used all tomato paste with water, some were no-cook recipes using canned tomatoes, and some used no seasonings! Continue reading →

Homemade Teriyaki Baked Tofu

Posted on November 17, 2017 | 10 comments

Have you ever bought baked tofu at the store? It’s a handy product that is seasoned, cooked, and ready to throw into any dish. When I was first transitioning from being an omnivore to vegetarian, I found that I loved tofu! This is not the case for most people, they find the texture off-putting, so yes, I know I’m weird. I started experimenting with all kinds of ways to enjoy tofu (including this smoked tofu recipe). This homemade teriyaki baked tofu makes weeknight dinners even faster! Continue reading →

Heirloom Cherry Tomato Balsamic Jam

Posted on August 3, 2017 | 10 comments

I started most of my garden plants from seed this year. The cherry tomatoes have been the most interesting to see mature. They were an heirloom variety, but for some reason I expected that they would still be cherry red. If have two plants, one produces purple tomatoes, and the other gold! Surprise! The tomatoes have still been a delicious treat this summer, and I especially love them in this heirloom cherry tomato balsamic jam! Continue reading →

Slow Cooker Sweet Potato Paneer Curry

Posted on July 27, 2017 | 6 comments

I have a love hate relationship with curry. On one hand, I absolutely love it. It’s versatile, healthy and easy to make. However, I don’t like most curry powders I have tried, taking curry from love to hate. Instead, I make my own curry powder. It requires stocking lots of spices to make my own blend. The plus side is that I can vary the amount of each spice every time I make a batch so that the flavors vary each time. No one curry dish will be the same as the next in my kitchen! Check out my slow cooker sweet potato paneer curry where I tried using more whole spices! Continue reading →

Slow Cooker Italian Lentil Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Posted on July 21, 2017 | 12 comments

This month’s theme for the recipe redux was to avoid heating up the kitchen by using a cool cooking appliance (ie not the oven). I love my big slow cooker for soups, but I don’t eat many soups during summer. The zucchini in my garden have been plentiful for a few weeks now, at one point I had a pile of 14 on my kitchen counter! Therefore, zucchini boats were in order. To fit in with the redux theme, I made slow cooker Italian lentil stuffed zucchini boats! Continue reading →

Small Batch Veggie Lasagna

Posted on February 28, 2017 | 10 comments

Back when I posted my Lentil Loaf recipe I told you all that meatloaf was a favorite food of mine as a child. Well, my other favorite food was lasagna. Mom would always ask us what meal we wanted to have for our birthdays, and I always chose lasagna. Now I make a veggie version, and I love this small batch veggie lasagna because it only makes 4 servings. With only two of us in the house, we don’t have to eat lasagna until we are tired of it!
