Innovative Low Carb, Gluten-Free Recipes
Break out of your salad rut with some California Endive. It makes a great base for your favourite salad toppings, like avocado, bacon and chipotle ranch dressing! I want to be clear that this blog is not truly representative of what I eat, day to day. If you were to judge my diet simply by [...]
Maple-Glazed Salmon Salad with Walnut Oil Vinaegrette – my contribution to a Gluten-Free, Heart Healthy Event! Heart health. I will be honest and say it’s not a part of my health I give all that much thought to. But perhaps I should. Here I am, rapidly approaching 40 and like every family, a few distant [...]
I am pleased to tell you that the third in our series of low carb cookbooks is available for pre-order now, and will be shipping in early January. I have 60 low carb, gluten-free recipes in this one. Well, 59 actually, as one decided to go missing on my computer and we actually had so [...]
Raise your hand if you knew that today is World Diabetes Day. No? How about the fact that November is Diabetes Awareness Month? To be honest, if I didn’t have diabetes myself, I might not know it either. And if I were REALLY honest, I might acknowledge that if I didn’t have it myself, I [...]

Cilantro. It’s one of those love it or hate it herbs. I know several people who swear it tastes like soap. Soap? Really? I rather think it tastes like cilantro, but other than that, I can’t quite describe the flavour. I love it though. If memory serves, I can pinpoint the first time I ever [...]
Apparently I take my life in my hands every time I bake. I always knew this, but somehow I’ve managed to willfully ignore it. See, I am a serial taster. A raw cookie dough eater. A can’t-help-myself-have-to-just-taste-that-cake-batter-raw-eggs-be-damned kind of girl. Remember the huge salmonella outbreak last summer, with millions of eggs recalled? Yeah, even that [...]
