Some decisions in life are just no-brainers. Did I wish to get a second dog after Elsie? Uh-huh. Should I move in with the HH? Duh. Do I present at Nourished when asked? Uh, yeah. Will I accept when Ellen finally invites me onto her show? OF COURSE I WILL!! And when Casey of KitchenPLAY […]

Spectacular Spring Salad
Before I begin this review–and in the spirit of full disclosure–I must confess to you all that my opinions in this blog post are biased. No, not because I was paid to do this review (which I wasn’t); not because I received a free copy of the book (which I did); and not because I […]
Kitchen Classics: Chickpea Pot Pie
With our wacky summer-like temperatures this past week breaking records more than once, it may seem out of sync to post a pot pie recipe. And even though I first made this a few weeks ago, we’ve been enjoying it regularly since then. I like to think of it as my final nod to the winter weather that […]
Greek-Inspired, Soy-Free Breakfast Scramble
[STOP THE PRESSES!!!** I am beyond thrilled to share the news that Ellen (yes, that Ellen!) has featured one of my recipes on her “Going Vegan with Ellen” website! Thank you, thank you, Ellen, once again for your generosity in sharing my recipes! And thank you to reader Weisserose for letting me know about it […]
New Year’s Pelau
Yes, it is currently almost a week after Valentine’s Day (did you see the lovely flowers the HH got for me, after my oh-so-subtle prodding?), and I’m just posting my recipe from New Year’s Eve. Sure, you might think, “Wow, that Ricki is really slow at posting her recipes!” But what I think is, “Wow, I managed […]
“Wine and Cheese” Charlotte
This recipe is my gluten-free, anti-candida take on a recipe that The Nurse gave to me quite some time ago, for a Wine and Cheese Charlotte (a savory version of the classic dessert). I’ve had the recipe since I was in my teens, but hadn’t thought about it for decades. Like so many young girls, as a teen […]
Caramelized Onion, Shaved Butternut and “Goat Cheese” Pizza (Grain Free, Vegan)
When I was in grade school, there was exactly one boy (let’s call him Jerome) in our school who had a food allergy (to peanuts). Jerome was already a bit too large (he towered over the rest of us; even in grade three, he was already level with our teacher, Mrs. B’s shoulders); a bit too […]
Flash in the Pan: Quick Creamy Caesar Dressing (Dairy Free, Egg Free, Grain Free, Sugar Free, Anti-Candida)
[Sometimes, you just want a dish that’s quick and easy–no fuss. I’ve decided to offer a mini-post every once in a while, for a dish that comes together incredibly quickly or else is so simple to make that no recipe is required. Here’s today’s “Flash in the Pan.” (For other FitP recipes, see “Categories” at right).] […]
Fava Bean Balls with Cranberry-Tomato Chutney
My, it feels as if it’s been a while since I’ve posted something new! Here at the DDD household, 2012 is off to a fairly slow start. I had fully intended to post this recipe last week, but was sidelined by a wiley sinus infection that has had me drinking ginger tea, irrigating my nasal passages […]
Broccoli Salad with Creamy Mustard Dressing
[I should have just given up on the sticky notes, because I want to try Every. Single. Recipe. in this book!!] Okay, so if you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time at all, you know that I am decidedly not the type of gal to attend a rave. (Read: too old. And even […]
