Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies
It’s hard to think of new breakfast ideas. Between morning grouchiness and an over eagerness to get to work, it’s the meal I spend the least time on. Luckily, these oat breakfast cookies are easy and super quick. We got this vegan, gluten free recipe from Oh She Glows. It features just a few ingredients, […]
Coney Island Visit: Baseball, Boardwalk and Beer
Living social had a great deal to see Brooklyn’s own minor league baseball team, the Cyclones for $10. Since this game against the Aberdeen Ironbirds was the last available evening game of the season we decided to check it out.

Ways to Use Fresh Tomatoes #9,921: Mozzarella and Tomato Sandwiches.
The little bodega down the road mysteriously manages to sell Jersey tomatoes cheaper than the farmer’s market. I don’t ask her to divulge secrets – I just look the other way and have enjoyed inexpensive fruits all summer long. With this latest batch we made mozzarella-tomato sandwiches two ways, vegan/gluten free and regular. For the […]
Glutino Gluten Free Table Crackers (7oz)
The Glutino focuses on the growing, lucrative Gluten Free market. I picked up these crackers on sale for $2.99 at Lifethyme green market in the West Village NYC. It’s a cute box. Each plank of crackers is two pieces which are easily broken apart. They have that brittleness and crunch of non-gf water crackers and […]
Black-Eyed Pea Dip Recipe (Georgian Lobio Variation, Vegan, Gluten Free)
Normally, the delicious Georgian dip lobio is made with red beans as posted about here.

These legumes, while delicious are milder than the traditional so I kicked up the seasoning a bit. The end result […]

I really enjoy corn and rice cakes as a light, healthy snack. During my weekly visit to Lifethyme Greenmarket today, located on a nondescript below eye-level shelf I noticed these fancy looking corn cakes. They’re eye-catching because they offer crazy flavors like dark chocolate, orange and even strawberry. Because I am incredibly daring, I chose […]

Review: Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Biscuit Mix
I don’t generally buy or make biscuits at home but Bob’s was on sale and featured a cheddar biscuit recipe a la Red Lobster. It was a fairly simply recipe involving throwing a few things into a bowl and mixing. After a judicious cheesing and buttering we were good to go. In keeping with tradition […]
Updated: Krish Classic Jeera Khakhra Review (Wheat Crisps)
Good news, gluten free folks: I’d posted about Krish Classic Khakra back in January of 2013. The product featured the words “gluten free” despite clearly being “wheat” based. Recently someone from the company followed up to say that they’ve removed the words “gluten free” so there is no confusion. It’s a tasty product and I’m […]
