Many of the symptoms of these problems are similar…

I hadn’t realized it while planning this weeks’ posts, but there is an ongoing theme for many of the recipes this week.
fiber + healthy and happy digestion
I just love fiber, don’t you?
Abusing my body throughout my teenage and early adult years left me with a very broken digestive system.
After going through countless tests, x-rays, medications, hospital visits, acupuncture, massage therapists, and exercises I said enough is enough! And I made a promise to myself that I would (more…)
Namaste Foods Gluten Free Bread Mix Review
July 27th, 2011 by Darla
Recently I made a loaf of bread using a bag of Namaste Foods Gluten Free Bread Mix. I bought this on sale at some point, and it subsequently sat in the pantry for a while. I’m not sure how long, but there’s another 8 months to go until the use-by date, so I’m not worried. I like to have stuff like this on hand because sometimes I get in the mood to

Panera Bread – Gluten Free Options
July 22nd, 2011 by Jenny Manseau

I love Panera Bread and that we have one not too far from us! Even if we forget that it is there half the time, it is nice when we remember it.
Bryan loves their bread and their creamy tomato soup and I truly miss their bread but love their salads and their creamy tomato soup also. We went to lunch there last week, and like I always do before going somewhere to

Two Quick and Easy Gluten-free Dips
July 18th, 2011 by Amy Fothergill

Instead of opening a jar of olive tapenade or a dip from the refrigerated section of the market, consider making your own. If you keep some key ingredients on hand and have a small food processor or blender, you are in business!
The olive tapenade is so easy and so much better when made fresh. The beauty of it is that you can make a small amount if you are just having a few friends or

It’s blueberry season!!! Blueberries always make me think of my Aunt Pat, and I just returned from California where she and I enjoyed several fistfuls of blueberries together. I was jumping for joy when I found out that the key ingredient for this month’s SOS Kitchen Challenge was blueberries!

But back to this SOS Kitchen Challenge.
Udi’s Gluten Free Buns and Ancient Grain Breads
July 14th, 2011 by Cinde Shields
Udi’s Gluten Free is launching their NEW line of Hamburger Buns, Hot Dog Buns and two varieties of Ancient Grains Breads this month… just in time for your summer BBQs! I have been waiting for what seems like a very long time for Udi’s Gluten Free to make buns; I figured that since their bread is soft, delicious and doesn’t need toasting that their buns would be superior to others on the market. I was right.

My family sampled Udi’s new
