10 Inexpensive Ways to Celebrate Christmas

  Below are some things that we do to celebrate Christmas.  Most of these things are also inexpensive. It’s funny how when you’re trying to simplify and focus on the things that matter in life like relationships, it often doesn’t cost a whole lot of money. 1.     Hot chocolate!  Pair hot chocolate with anything and it […]

Hot Chocolate – Feingold Stage 1

We don’t drink hot chocolate too often but there are two times a year that we definitely do: The first snowfall of the year, and around Christmas time when we watch Polar Express. Polar Express is now my 7 year old’s favorite movie. Not sure if it’s because of the movie, or the hot chocolate. […]

Pizza Sauce

  28 oz can of tomato puree (I use Muir Glen) 2 cups of the juice from a 28 oz can of whole peeled tomatoes (use a fork and mash down on the tomatoes to get the juice.  You can strain it if you want.) ½ cup of oil (I use organic olive oil) 1 […]

A Feingold Birthday Party

    We just celebrated my son’s 6th birthday yesterday.  Thought I’d share how we have celebrated our own birthdays Feingold style.  First, I always print my own invitations.  This has absolutely nothing to do with Feingold.  J  I just hate writing out each individual invitation.  I steal wording off of online birthday invitation web sites.  […]

Baked Cinnamon Chips – Feingold Stage 1

I always have leftover flour tortillas when we make tacos so I looked up a recipe for baked cinnamon chips.  These are super easy to make and can be made with gluten free tortillas as well. Tortillas (Azteca flour tortillas or Food for Life brown rice tortillas for GF) Butter (Earth Balance Soy Free for […]

GFCF Macaroni and Cheese

This is a “recipe” I made up using Daiya cheese. You can adjust the amounts to taste, but I wanted to have some kind of measurements. 2 cups of GFCF noodles (We use Tinkyada rice noodles) 1 cup of Daiya cheddar cheese shreds (I keep mine in the freezer) 4 TB of butter (we use […]

Gluten Free Corn Cakes

I adapted this recipe from Silvana Nardone’s cookbook , “Cooking for Isaiah.”  These taste like corn bread, in the form of a pancake.  They remind me of the corn bread at Boston Market.  My daughter and I love these, smothered in butter! Sometimes she adds strawberry jelly to hers too.  1 cup Silvana’s GFCF pancake mix […]

Gluten Free Chocolate Chip S’Mores Pancakes

This is from Silvana Nardone’s cookbook, “Cooking for Isaiah.”  These are REALLY good!  Everyone raves about them when I make them.  My only complaint is that the recipe doesn’t make enough pancakes.  The recipe calls for “Silvana’s Pancake Mix.”  The recipe for that is in the cookbook. You could try making them with another GF […]

Chocolate Chip Quinoa Cookies

This is a gluten and dairy free recipe. These can also be made egg free. 1 ¾ cups quinoa flakes (from the health food store or Whole Foods) 1 ¾ cups GF all purpose flour (I use Namaste’s Perfect Flour blend) 1 tsp baking soda (I use Bob’s Red Mill Aluminum Free) 1 tsp xanthan […]
