After an initial Green-Eggs-and-Ham reaction, I found myself enjoying these so much that I snuck some from the fridge as a midnight snack. 3 leeks, sliced (white and light green parts only) 2 teaspoons olive oil 3 garlic cloves, minced 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 1 cup water 1 medium head broccoli, roughly chopped (about 3 to [...]

Oven-Roasted Summer Veggies

This is my version of a rustic Italian dish from The Italian Country Table, by Lynne Rosetto Kasper. It is more of a technique than a specific recipe — use whatever vegetables look best at your farmer’s market. I ommit the eggplant and the results are still delicious. 1 small eggplant, cut into 1-inch cubes 1 large or [...]

Fried Zucchini Pinwheels

These are a great party starter or appetizer to serve with drinks. They look and taste much more complicated than they are to make. Kids love shaking the bag to coat the zukes, and might even be tempted to eat some vegetables. This is my vegan and allergen-free version of Lidia Matticchio Bastianich’s fried succhini recipe. Canola oil [...]
Irish Colcannon With Skin-On New Potatoes
Posted in gluten free (GF/CF), low histamine, sides, vegan, yeast free on June 14, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Traditional Irish colcannon is made by boiling potatoes in their skins and then peeling them. I prefer to leave the skins on for the added nutrition as well as ease of preparation. Small red skinned or Yukon gold potatoes work best in this dish. The tiny dash of garlic powder is in this recipe to [...]
