I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed today, what with an order for 56 frosted cupcakes due by noon, as well as an article on cooking with avocado expected by this afternoon. Yikes. Therefore, today’s Holidailies post will be short and sweet. Or, in this case, short and spicy. This recipe for Tofu Masala is quick and easy, […]

Pumpkinseed Shortbread Buttons
I had promised to post recipes on Friday and diet musings on Saturdays during Holidailies, but I’ve been so frazzled by all this marking that I skipped straight to the weekend in yesterday’s post. I figured I’d better rectify the situation, and what better way than with cookies? This is a recipe I originally created […]
Mostly Raw Chocolate Truffles
Aren’t chocolate truffles just the height of decadence? At this time of year, they seem to abound on coffee tables, in buffets, or in scalloped porcelain dishes that have been handed down from generation to generation. Well, for dessert day here at DD&D, I thought I’d share a recipe for my favorite NAG-friendly chocolate trufffles. […]
Moroccan Spiced Tomato Soup
As promised, I’m going to supply the recipes from the cooking class I taught last week—my last ever in my home (sniff!). Now, on to today’s NAG-friendly recipe. . . . This recipe for Moroccan Spiced Tomato Soup was originally given to me by a former office mate, who eventually became a close friend. At the […]
Frosted Banana-Oat Bars
Last evening I logged on to my blog and was gobsmacked to discover that my post had been listed on the Best of Holidailies! You cannot imagine how thrilled this neophyte blogger was at the news (made the H.H. read the whole thing–he liked the pic of Elsie’s paw especially) and also how surprised. So thank you, panel of Holidailies readers, and […]
Mediterranean Tofu Scramble
I have to admit, it took me a long time to warm up to tofu. When I first revamped my diet in accordance with the NAG principles, I had never eaten tofu, let alone familiarized myself with the many varieties in which it’s available. My naturopath touted the truism you hear so often: “It’s basically flavorless on […]
Sweet Potato and Carrot Casserole
Today is moving day! We are likely en route right now, between houses, stressing about whether the movers will break our fragile glassware, or whether all the boxes will arrive at their destination, or whether the stove will fit in the space that’s been left for it. In any case, I thought I’d leave a […]
Gluten Free Cashew Chocolate Chip Cookies
Hmmmnnnn. . . . so what does this say about me? I am surrounded by boxes. Right here, in my office, the towers of boxes around me–leaving a path just barely wide enough to traverse to get to my computer–resemble a child’s game of war and fortress (I can almost see over the top of the […]
Baked Oats
[There’s nothing like a steaming bowl of oatmeal for breakfast! These baked oats are vegan, sugar-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg free, soy-free, nut-free and yeast-free. Suitable for Stage 3 and beyond on an anti-candida diet.] One of my all-time favorite breakfasts is baked oats. The recipe is adapted from the Moosewood Classics cookbook, but I’ve made […]
