Intro

Originally, I thought blogs were for people who thought too much of their own thoughts and opinions. I mean, really, who cares what I think? But then I realized that it was a way to communicate to lots of people in this real-time world. And I know there’s information missing out there on the information super-highway. Especially about food intolerances and cooking around them. Two of my children have multiple food intolerances, and I’ve learned to adapt recipes so that most of us can eat the same thing at the table. I’ll probably expand this blog to share some of the information I’ve gleaned from books and various other sources, and hope I can remember to give credit where credit is due. And I don’t mind experimenting with recipes to help you cope with you or your child’s food intolerances.

Water Buffalo Milk Mozzarella

My son passed the Water Buffalo milk test, at least in terms of the mozzarella. I gave my daughter some of the yogurt the next day since she had spit out her one taste of the pizza. She didn’t do so well. A tummy ache for the next day. I didn’t do so well either. But my son can have it!! Woo hoo. After looking on the web, I found they make ricotta and smoked mozzarella, as well as different flavors of yogurt and the regular mozzarella.  One more thing that he can have. Hooray!

Buffalo Milk Mozzarella

On the allergy forum on Mothering.com (the forum for Mothering Magazine) someone mentioned Water Buffalo milk as an option for people who are allergic/intolerant of cow’s milk and/or goat milk. So I found some mozzarella at Whole Foods ($12 for 1 ball) and last night I trialled it for us with PIZZA. I used my flax-buckwheat flatbreadas the crust, a little tomato sauce (which made the flatbread a little soggy), Canadian bacon, and mozzarella. My son LOVED it — he ate 4 pieces (it’s been over 2 years since he’s had pizza). My daughter spit it out (so

Halloween Candy

I have searched on-line for the last 2 hours. I have found one kind of candy for each child for Halloween. For my son, I found: Candy Tree Organic Cherry Lollipops (ingredients: corn malt syrup, citric acid, cherry flavor). He’s the one who can have corn, but no cane sugar. For my daughter (who can have cane sugar, but no corn), I found College Farm Naturepops. The ingredients of the Citrus Blast Flavor: evaporated cane juice, tapioca syrup, citric acid, lemon oil, orange extract, lime extract, fruit and vegetable colors. She actually can’t have that one, but I couldn’t get

I am eating ICE CREAM!!!

This is the most fabulous ice cream ever. Purely Decadent made with Coconut Milk. It’s a West Coast company, but with a wide distribution. The Whole Foods I go to carries 4 of the 5 flavors listed on their website (www.turtlemountain.com). It’s soy free. Dairy free. They use agave syrup to sweeten it. And the best part? It’s creamy, and decadent, and delicious. Oh…. and the whole pint is gone. How did that happen?

Oops. I did it again.

I wanted chicken marsala one night, so I made up a recipe. When I went to enter it onto this website this morning, I realized that I’d already created one. And of course I did things differently both times. I also realized that I didn’t need to do half the prep work I did, so it’s now simpler. I modified my original one to add the changes (the second one was MUCH better). My older DD calls it “chicken blah blah.”
