Since Kolton needs to eat gluten free I often feel bad baking our regular treats, and thus don’t bake at all. Problem is, I enjoy baking. So I’ve been trying to learn how to better bake with gluten free flours. Gluten free banana nut bread is my latest accomplishment. We love almond flour but it’s so pricey that I don’t like to buy it often. Coconut flour is my next favorite, but it’s very high in fiber and well… let’s […]
Gluten Free Gingerbread Men for the Holidays

I don’t know about you, but there is just something about gingerbread that says Christmas. Mother has a lovely thick and gooey gingerbread cake that she often makes and it disappears quickly. However, it’s the little gingerbread men that hold the greatest appeal to a child. A few months ago my son ended up with a nasty rash that only went away after removing gluten from his diet. Of course this made me sad as I thought of all the […]

I Don’t Have Time to Cook from Scratch

“I want to eat healthy, but I don’t have time to cook from scratch”. Do you find yourself saying that often? Do you look at the clock and realize once again the only thing you have time for is a freezer pizza or some other heat and serve food? I’ve definitely been there. I used to work until 5:30 – 6:00 4 nights a week and then had a 15 min drive home. Eating real, healthy foods cooked from scratch seemed important, […]

Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
The beauty in buying organic potatoes is the ability to use the entire potato without wasting even the smallest amount of skin. Most of the time I simply scrub the potato well and use it as is. However, I don’t want peels in my mashed potatoes so I make baked potato peels! It is incredibly easy to make baked potato peels and is a great way to use the peels instead of tossing them. Hey, when I’m paying for organic […]

Ways that I am a Proverbs 31 Woman

In one day I had ordered co-op with my mom, drove to the farmers market for potatoes and tomatoes, and drove to a bulk foods store for raw cane sugar and maple syrup. My mom laughed and said I was being a proverbs 31 woman because I was “gathering my food from afar”. It made me smile and wonder how many other ways that I am being a Proverbs 31 woman without realizing it. I actually came up with quite […]

Cereal is our go-to breakfast most mornings, but sometimes I like to fix this quick and simple breakfast casserole. One of my favorite things about this breakfast casserole is that you make it the night before. It takes me about 20 minutes to make it, and then I toss it into the fridge. Next morning it goes in the oven and while I’m getting dressed, breakfast is baking. 🙂 Sadly this recipe calls for milk, cheese and onion, so it […]

I don’t know about you, but I love bagels. Cinnamon raisin to be exact and that’s why I am sharing my cinnamon raisin bagel recipe with you today! Bagels can seem like a lot of work, first mixing the dough, then letting it raise, beating it down, forming the bagels, boiling the bagels and finally baking them. Okay, so they aren’t as easy as making bread. But honestly? From start to finish (and I grind my own flour), not counting […]

Meal planning made simple, is that really possible? I’m a skeptic when it comes to meal planning. Honestly I’m a bit of a skeptic when it comes to any type of planning. 🙂 Since it was part of the bundle sale that’s being offered right now, I thought I should at least read through the book even though I was convinced that Meal Planning just wasn’t for me. Turns out that Author Melissa Alink thought so too. Below is an […]
