I made this lightly-sweetened plumcot-raspberry ga

I made this lightly-sweetened plumcot-raspberry galette as a "second birthday dessert" for my older son's birthday last month, after he chose the plum breakfast cake as his first. Not sure which we like better! Let me know if you try either or both!⁠
⁠
This has butter in the crust, so gluten-free but not dairy free. We dolloped it with coconut yogurt, though, and I plan to try a dairy-free option. But butter makes such a flexible crust. ⁠
⁠
Now that I'm happy about the crust, I see galettes everywhere - sweet and savory! ⁠

Here's a delicious fish dinner idea - air fryer sa

Here's a delicious fish dinner idea - air fryer salmon fillets with Harissa aioli. Coated with a seasoned, light gluten-free cornmeal crust and air-fried for the shortest time possible so it's still tender in the middle. ⁠
⁠
I included directions for opah, too, since I made this recipe while in Hawaii, and - you gotta try it with opah when you are there. ⁠

Enjoy this Mexican-seasoned Quinoa Bowl with grill

Enjoy this Mexican-seasoned Quinoa Bowl with grilled corn and bell peppers as we do with my salmon tacos and pickled red onions in my last two posts. What's the difference between this and a quinoa salad? Depends on the vegetables you put in - this one also has avocado (I love making those little avocado fans) and Mexican white cheese. ⁠
⁠
This contains:⁠
Cooked quinoa (white, red or mixed)⁠
Cumin, coriander, chili powder⁠
Lime juice, vinegar and olive oil⁠
Salt, pepper⁠
Stir in your vegetables: corn, bell peppers, peas or beans, and add toppings at will. ⁠

Tacos - with salmon seasoned and baked in parchmen

Tacos - with salmon seasoned and baked in parchment; the red pickled onions from my last post; and an easy yogurt-lime avocado crema. The salmon comes out so tender baked this way, and if you don't use it all for tacos, it is good in so many other dishes. ⁠
⁠
Best with California avocados, whose season is ending soon .... ⁠
⁠
Easy, gluten-free, yummy, now you have it in advance for next Taco Tuesday. ⁠

Pickled red onions are so easy to make, a tasty ad

Pickled red onions are so easy to make, a tasty addition to many dishes, and a fun science experiment with color changes - dear to my science-teacher heart! Only 5 ingredients, and I don't add any sugar to mine. ⁠
⁠
Just: red onions, apple cider vinegar, salt, garlic and oregano. Hmmm, what would these be tasty on? Two options coming up soon. ⁠

Paleo plum breakfast cake with plum sauce! I've be

Paleo plum breakfast cake with plum sauce! I've been playing with this recipe (cutting down on the amount of sugar) during plum season and yesterday my older son asked me if I'd make one for his birthday cake. Yum, yum, plum. ⁠
⁠
Almond and coconut flours, as well as egg yolks, make it rich - just a touch of coconut sugar makes it very mildly sweet. Plums blended with a little more coconut sugar form the sauce. ⁠
⁠
Dense, filling and wonderful. ⁠

My Low Carb Nut and Seed Bread is Paleo, hearty and satisfying, plus really easy to stir together and bake. I enjoy playing around with the ingredients for subtle taste differences, too. It slices! It toasts!! ⁠

⁠
My latest favorite ingredients:⁠
½ cup coconut flour⁠
1 cup almond flour⁠
½ cup melted coconut oil ⁠
½ cup plain psyllium husk ⁠
¼-⅓ cup coconut sugar (⅓-½ cup of sugar substitute for keto option)⁠

1 ½ teaspoons baking powder⁠
