Potstickers are super yummy! When I’m at Costco I usually pick up a bag of their potstickers to keep in the freezer. Yesterday I decided to make my own and make them gluten free for my daughter. Making them from scratch is a lot of work, so make sure you have a...
My daughter loves granola either eaten with soy milk, topping ice cream and even mixed into fruit shakes. It can be hard to find a granola that is free of all of her allergens so I tried making some at home in a small batch this weekend. It was pretty easy and she...
I usually bring a gluten, dairy and nut free dessert to family gatherings for my daughter. Coming up with something new is sometimes difficult and often I need time to test out the recipe first to make sure it is presentable once I use substitutes for everything. I...
You are probably wondering why anyone would want to make a microwave cookie? Well in our house we had the trifecta of appliance break downs. First our washing machine broke 2 weeks ago and since we had to buy a new one we thought we’d replace our horrible 3 year...

My middle daughter has a lot of food allergies so when it comes to making desserts we usually have to make 2 kinds. The problem we’ve found is that most recipes are for multiple servings. It is hard for one person to eat a 13 x 9 dish of lemon bars, Rice Krispy...
My middle daughter can’t eat many things including gluten and dairy. She is also taking french this year and they prepare lots of cakes, pastries and fondues for extra credit or to experience the french culture. One of the things they made was Buche de Noel,...
