Your guests will never guess the secret ingredient on this one! I’m a big fan of beans for both frugality and nutrition, and in spite of some eating plans that eschew their phytates, lectins or starches, we still incorporate them into meals often. You can nail many of the anti-nutrients with a long, warm soak […]

These whole grain pancakes are easy to make and gluten free! Simply prep the night before and wake up with the batter ready to make for a quick, delicious, gluten-free breakfast.

I don’t grill. I know you’re feeling really trusting of a grilling recipe from someone who doesn’t grill, but don’t worry – we grill plenty at the Kimball house. It’s just a great way to get some help with dinner as long as I remain completely ignorant about the mysterious workings of the grill. I

My dad kicked chemo’s butt. There’s no denying it, the man weathered chemotherapy (for bladder cancer) with fewer side effects and more energy than anyone I’ve ever heard of. He had eight sessions of chemo, a six-hour infusion, then a two-hour infusion a week later, then a week off, repeating four times over twelve weeks.

When we got my dad’s cancer diagnosis, I just had to do something. Anything. As I mentioned back when I wrote about how we used food to naturally fight cancer, I traveled to see my parents, stocked their freezer with meals for those long chemo-treatment days, and helped incorporate some new cancer-fighting foods into my
I’ve struggled with how to introduce this fantastic fruit custard dish. At first, I thought I would wax eloquent about how wonderfully flexible this recipe is, allowing you to butcher experiment with the ingredients, sub out virtually EVERYTHING based on dietary needs or what’s left in the fridge, and still have a delicious creation. Then
If you’ve read my blog at all you’ll know my little family is obsessed with ice cream. Whether it’s the classic mint chocolate chip with homemade chocolate chips, or vanilla drizzled with honey sweetened caramel and raw hot fudge sauce, we can’t get enough. And even though I’ll admit to succumbing to the occasional store

I remember when vitamin gummies first became commercially available. I thought they were the coolest things since sliced bread. Knowing what I do now though, I’ll gladly pass on them. The Nasty Truth About Vitamins Conventional vitamins, gummy and regular, both contain loads of yucky ingredients like corn syrup and refined sugar. And those “natural
Ah, summer! Days full of being out in the sun, not a care in the world… Whether you’re at a baseball game, out for a bike ride or relaxing on the beach, you still need to eat at least three meals a day, right? But you don’t feel like heating up the kitchen—or maybe even

Popeye would be so proud. Not that I’d ever serve canned spinach (have you ever tried it? Central to the only meal I’ve ever thrown out 100% before eating without managing to save a morsel by re-making into something better) but I respect the guy for making greens seem so cool. He should be my

“So…what’s in here?” they all asked, not in the usual, “What weird thing are you hiding in our dinner?” but in a tone of awe and wonder and genuine curiosity. I’m still not sure how Tess Masters’ Creamy Cauliflower Soup has such an interesting and non-cauliflower-y flavor with so few ingredients, no dairy, and a

I remember back when I cooked a decent amount from scratch but didn’t know “real food” from “boxed and canned food,” I used to think of stuffed pasta shells as a “fancy meal” because of all the steps – boiling the noodles, making the sauce, mixing up the filling and taking the time to fill
I am not really a tea person and never have been. But because of this ginger challenge and learning how super easy it is to store ginger, I decided I’d better try it. This ginger tea, which I’m guessing shouldn’t even be called “tea” since it’s not made from leaves (?), is something special: It turns

You know how some kids put ketchup on everything? In our house, it’s all about mustard. We go through mustard like nobody’s business, seriously. I should buy stock in the stuff. Which means, of course, that I should also buy stock in laundry stain treaters and ultimately, clothing since mustard is a bear to get

Where’s the free toy that used to come in breakfast cereal? It’s not the only thing missing from the box these days. We’ve been duped to think that breakfast variety equates to many different colors of cereal boxes festooned with various cartoon characters or health claims. In reality, all those hundreds of different boxes contain
