Grain-free and Dairy-free Pumpkin Pie (SCD, Paleo)
I can eat eggs again! Just in time too, as I couldn’t come up with a pumpkin pie I liked without the use of eggs. The crust on this pie is really simple to make and just presses in to the pie plate instead of having to roll anything out. You can use canned pumpkin … Read more
Grain-Free Thanksgiving Stuffing
*Note : Some have had issues with the dough for this recipe. I am deleting the yogurt note as I know for certain that the bread works with the Farmer’s Cheese (dry curd cottage cheese). A reader told me they subbed thick greek yogurt and had success, but I have never tried it myself. I … Read more
