Homemade Ginger Beer Recipe

Ginger Beer is an excellent digestive tonic and refreshing beverage that I never considered making at home until it became popular in the local Seattle food scene. Unfortunately, a local ginger beer spot in my area sells the stuff for $17 for 32 ounces (that’s about $66 per gallon), so naturally, I wanted to make…

Homemade Mocha Frappe Recipe With Coconut Milk

There is no better way to put all of my favorite things together in one glass than in this mocha frappe recipe! Cacao powder supplies a hefty source of magnesium, collagen provides anti-inflammatory protein, coconut milk supplies healthy fat, and coffee is, well, essential. Blend this up and you may find yourself dropping your daily Starbucks…

Homemade Coconut Milk

Good boxed coconut milk or any alternative (non-dairy) milk for that matter is hard to find. Many are loaded with gums such as carrageenan or guar gum that can irritate the gut and contain added synthetic vitamins that are best avoided (especially vitamin D2). That’s why, if you can find the time, it’s a much…

Apple Cake: Gluten Free Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Even though fresh apple season has long faded, I’ve found myself working on this gluten free apple cinnamon muffin recipe for the last month. Despite finicky apple quality this late in the season I still find myself buying and eating them anyways. Maybe it’s my way of coping with that winter lull where fruit is…

Healthy Orange Chicken Recipe

I ate a lot of Chinese food growing up, and orange chicken was always one of my favorites, along with most everyone else. Traditional orange chicken takeout is fried in questionable oils and sauced up with unmentionable additives that are definitely not doing your health any favors. It’s cool if you’re eating takeout once in…

Homemade Plum Butter

I’m not sure how I lived without plum butter for the first 30 years of my life, but now I’m confident I don’t want to live without it. Some eggs and a piece of toast smothered with butter and plum butter is my quick breakfast solution for a tired morning. This recipe is also great…

Gluten Free Berry Crisp

A fresh berry crisp is one of my favorite things (right up there with these buttery scones). It’s something I realized I hadn’t had the luxury of eating in almost the decade I’ve chosen to eat gluten free. It’s often tough to find a berry crisp that’s gluten free and won’t irritate a sensitive gut,…

Gluten Free Scones With Chocolate Chunks

Gluten free scones and chocolate – could there be a better combination? I’m not convinced there is. These buttery gluten free scones with chocolate chunks are the perfect treat to wake up to as we transition into fall. Just make sure to pair these scones with a good source of protein to help stabilize your…

Gluten Free Plum Crisp

Italian plums are severely underrated. Sadly, I’m guilty of neglecting them for most of the first 29 years of my life. But when I finally was introduced to them in the form of plum butter and plum crisp, I thought I was in heaven (heaven I want to recreate year after year). In an attempt…

High Protein Gluten Free Pancakes

These fluffy, nutrient dense, protein-packed, and gluten free pancakes have been a regular go-to meal for me lately. You see, I haven’t had a ton of time to grocery shop and cook as I’ve been putting the finishing touches on the Wealthy Metabolism eCourse that launched this past month. These gluten free pancakes satisfyingly fulfill…

Protein Packed Gluten Free Waffles

My love for Belgian waffles probably has something to do with the crispy edges and deep pockets that make the perfect crevices for catching butter and maple syrup. Unfortunately, most gluten free waffles are loaded with gums, such as xanthan or guar gum that can irritate the gut, ruining your overall waffle experience. Instead, I use a combination of sweet…

Gluten Free Scones with Blueberries

Scones have long been a comfort food for me. I suspect that’s due to their flaky texture and high butter content. While I typically avoid gluten free baking mixes (due to the addition of guar and/or xanthan gum), they are often necessary with certain kinds of baked goods, including scones. Instead, in this recipe, I heavily dilute…
