I can no longer have cranberries, so I decided to try something new for a similar sauce for Thanksgiving. It came out wonderfully, but it isn't very tart. If you're looking for tart, I would replace the grape juice with SCD legal tart cherry juice and reduce the pears by 2. I would likely also … Continue reading Cherry Pear Sauce (Thanksgiving)

Banana Vanilla Frozen Yogurt
A delicious frozen treat that tastes just like vanilla ice cream. You can sub out 1 or both bananas for mango, pineapple, or avocado and get similar results (simply slice the bananas into a measuring cup to determine how much to replace for or go by weight). Let me know if you tweak the recipe … Continue reading Banana Vanilla Frozen Yogurt
Nutty Banana Breakfast Bars
I felt like creating something original today. I think it could still be better, but it definitely hit the spot. Right now I am not sure I can have honey, so I've been playing around with baking using fruit as the only sweetener. Hopefully, if my love affair with honey must come to an end, … Continue reading Nutty Banana Breakfast Bars
LEAP Diet Phase 2
After struggling through phase 1 with only 2 proteins and 2 veggies (I ate a lot of bananas and pecans), I must say that it was well worth it. I have literally no bloating when I'm done a meal and I've lost about 3 to 4 lbs and can finally fit into a bridesmaid dress … Continue reading LEAP Diet Phase 2
Banana Pecan Coffee Smoothie (LEAP)
I found what I will be having for breakfast for at least the next 10 days! Perhaps once I can add more items in, I will trade out the mango for some coconut and keep this sucker in rotation for a while. Enjoy!
Banana Avocado Nut Bread (LEAP)
I am horribly bored on this combo SCD/LEAP diet. I need more protein options and veggies. Either way, I've somehow managed to find something easy and delicious to include in my diet for the next few days. I tweaked a recipe I found for a bread that uses almond flour, banana, and avocado. Below is … Continue reading Banana Avocado Nut Bread (LEAP)

Coconut Banana Bread (Tweak)
After finding out that I reacted high to almonds and must avoid them (not really upset about this other than losing their versatility), I had to find something delicious to make with coconut flour. I also had 2lbs of bananas to sneak into some recipes. MyB tweak on this recipe was to cut the … Continue reading Coconut Banana Bread (Tweak)
Apricot Sauce
Over the weekend my boyfriend and I hosted a little dinner and we used this sauce to glaze our chicken as it baked. We also used the remaining portion as a sauce to dip the chicken in. It's really delicious. I believe you can sub out a decent variety of fruits for the apricots such … Continue reading Apricot Sauce
Apple Hash-browns (SCD/Low-Histamine)
Apples are not only low-histamine, but they are also considered anti-inflammatory. These can be used as a snack alone, on top of some homemade yogurt, or as a breakfast side - eggs, pancakes. You could also cook these most of the way and top with a grain-free, gluten-free rolled out pie crust and pop in … Continue reading Apple Hash-browns (SCD/Low-Histamine)
