It’s finally here!!! We get to meet our precious new baby today! Lord willing in about 4 hours we’ll have a 4th member in our family 🙂 Just thought I’d share a couple last belly shots. After our long journey, it’s hard to believe this is finally going to be a reality. Trusting that God …
GAPS Sauerkraut
Aside from bone broth one of the most nourishing and healing foods for GAPS is sauerkraut. It is recommended right from the start…starting with just the juice and then adding in the vegetable itself. So I figured I better try some 🙂 This recipe comes right from the GAPS book. Very simple. And only takes …

Meal Plans Week of 5-1-11 and 5-8-11
First week of May. Last week before baby. Although theoretically the baby could come any time. So I’m going to post plans for the next 2 weeks today. Not that much going on this week since everything is pretty much ready and I’m trying to take it easy. Just some last minute odds and ends. …
Coconut Flour Bread
I tried another coconut flour recipe today. This one comes from Maggie’s Nest. When I saw it I knew I had to try it…just a simple loaf of bread. Worked great!!! It’s very yellow, like most things you make with coconut flour (I think it’s because you have to use so many eggs with coconut …

Many people know little or nothing about fertility treatments, specifically …
Apple Cinna-Muffins (grain free, dairy free, GAPS-legal)
Another new grain free muffin attempt today. I found this recipe on Cooking GAPS. I modified it slightly – used coconut oil instead of ghee and did the egg yolk/white trick so I could eliminate the baking soda. They turned out well, but fairly crumbly. I think that’s because I used some of my homemade …
Grain Free French Toast (GAPS-legal)
This isn’t much of a recipe. But it was a very tastey and exciting meal last night that I figured I’d share 🙂 When you start eating grain free there are a few things here and there that you miss…like french toast. I grew up eating french toast for breakfast almost every Saturday morning. So it …

What’s not to love about bacon and eggs baked together? 🙂 I lined some small pyrex dishes with the bacon, baked …

I saw a super simple recipe on Grain Free Foodies recently for peanut butter brownies. We gave it a try. It was very simple. Only 3 ingredients! The verdict…ok. Honestly they don’t have …
