Gingerbread Donuts (gluten, dairy, corn, soy and refined sugar free)

-


 
After cooking pumpkin recipes pretty much from September until now, I am ready for my next favorite holiday treat - gingerbread! Jenni Hulet at The Urban Poser has done it again, as soon as I read this post about her gingerbread donuts I was off to the kitchen. These were very simple and absolutely delicious. It's a change from the traditional gingerbread cookie and is a perfect holiday treat. I followed this exact recipe, except I skipped beating the egg whites because I was short on time and she says they come fine without that step, but next time I make these I will try adding that step to see the difference.

Interview on Probiotics

Interview with Registered Pharmacist John Azzarelli Anyone who knows me, knows that for years I had been dealing with digestive issues. It wasn't until about 2 years ago, that I really started to find out the things that were causing these issues. The first thing I removed was gluten and that made a world of difference! But, I still wasn't feeling as good as I should be. Then I met John Azzarelli owner of Dr. BWell Naturally in Plainview, NY. He is a Registered Pharmacist and Certified Nutritional Consultant. He is very knowledgeable in many areas of health, particularly Probiotics and Digestion. He had suggested that I had yeast imbalance. I never would have thought that the symptoms I had would be coming from my gut, itchy skin, sinus congestion, headaches, breakouts, and digestive issues. Once I followed his recommended regimen I felt like a new person!! No more headaches and sinus pressure, my itchy skin was relieved and my hair and skin never looked better! I also lost …

Turkey Broccoli Bites

I'm always looking for new ways to sneak veggies into a meal for myself and definitely for my kids. These turkey broccoli bites are the perfect meal paired with a nice big salad or as a snack anytime. They are kid approved! I know because I can barely keep them on the plate as they run by and keep grabbing them. I usually double the batch when making these because they also freeze good for another meal for a busy night during the week.

Ingredients
1 lb organic ground turkey
1/4 cup pureed broccoli (I make a batch of pureed broccoli and freeze it in portions to use when needed)
1 egg
2-3 tablespoons gluten free bread crumb (you can use Jillians or Chickpea breadcrumbs)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
pinch pepper
olive oil or coconut oil for cooking

Directions
In a mixing bowl beat egg and add all ingredients except for turkey. Mix well until all ingredients are combined. Add the ground turkey and roll into bite size balls or patties. Heat a large skillet on medium heat. A…

Gluten Free Baguette Bread

Before going gluten free I had been known to make a meal out of bread. Well, bread, olives, hummus, etc. I could eat bread everyday. I always had digestive issues but never thought it was the gluten. The more bread I ate the more uncomfortable I was. I cut out gluten and felt better, I also found out I was allergic to yeast which the bread was not helping with. I didn't miss the bread all that much because I knew it would lead to stomach discomfort. Every so often, I get this urge for a really good loaf of bread. Until now, I did not have one that was gluten free but tasted good enough to satisfy the craving, I did try some gluten free baguettes but they usually contain yeast and any recipe I tried that didn't have gluten, dairy or yeast was not that good so I just rather do without. If I'm not going to thoroughly enjoy my food when I eat it, I'm going to eat something else that I enjoy. When I saw this Easy French Bread recipe from Iris from The Daily Dietribe's …
