Month: March 2015

The Best Broccoli Bacon Salad {truly!} | I suppose it is a bit presumptuous of me to share this recipe a few months ahead of broccoli season, but -- trust me -- you'll want this recipe in hand when your kitchen overflows with green florets later this summer. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

The Best Broccoli Bacon Salad (Truly)

Vanilla Ginger Chai Tea {with a nourishing gelatin boost!} | In recent years, I've avoided vanilla chai drinks because of the caffeine and sugar. Then I happened up on this warm, soothing, nourishing, mug-worthy morning drink, and I include gelatin for a nutritional boost. If you like chai, I believe you will love this homemade version as much as I do! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Salmon Cakes with Homemade Lemon Mayo | These salmon cakes are one of my go-to meals when I have nothing planned and need to get something on the table in a hurry. With the mayonnaise made from pastured eggs, and a side of asparagus, they come together quickly while providing us with a healthy meal. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Natural Personal Care Products: Make Or Buy? | I used to think that in order to be a true believer in natural health and real food I had to make all of our natural personal care products. I've let go of that notion. I love experimenting with both homemade and store-bought personal care products. Here's what I make... and what I buy. What about you? | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

They grew up gardening, each of them. One in the country, one in the city. And when they met and married, their common interest became their favorite past-time.

Our home was plagued with terrible coughs earlier this winter. So, I reached for our fruit-derived Vitamin C and made batch after batch of these gummies. Within a week, the coughs lessened -- or completely went away. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

When it finally occurred to me that no ‘poo might not be the best option for me, I honestly didn't know what to do. I had been living the no 'poo "lifestyle" for so long that I thought the imaginary No 'Poo Police were going to arrest me or something. Here's why no 'poo didn't work for me... and what's working for me now. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Why No ‘Poo Didn’t Work For Me

Cajun food focuses on local ingredients found in the bayous and river delta, and (unsurprisingly) their menus feature fish and seafood quite often. Like catfish, which ranks high on the list of comfort foods for many a Southerner who grew up catching them, rolling them in cornmeal, and frying them. I use eleven different seasonings in my custom spicy blend! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Cajun Catfish + Homemade Cajun Seasoning

With St. Patrick's Day just around the corner, it's fun to see how new recipes can be "green-ified". Like my standard homemade Oreos. I turned the filling (natural) green, which made me think of grasshopper mint ice cream, so I added a bit of peppermint to the mix as well! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Homemade Peppermint Oreos {made with sprouted flour}

As I look back on those first few weeks and months of being a new mom, there are so many thing I'd wish I'd known. My best friend is getting ready to have her first child and as I thought of all the things to tell her, this blog post was born. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

My husband named this "The Best Chocolate Cake Ever". He actually told me to throw out all of my other cake recipes, including those decadent sugar-laden treats I made before we started changing our diet. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

The Best Grain-Free Chocolate Cake Ever {+8 things to make with almond pulp}

As much as I love sourcing and cooking real foods, I don't want to (and can't) spend my every waking moment in the kitchen. So I rely on some store-bought *healthy* convenience foods to make my life just a little bit easier and more fun. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com
