Holiday Update to Wheat-Free, Dairy-Free & Low Sugar Blog

Happy Holidays!

I've decided to change up my usual holiday routine, and will be laying on a sandy beach in the tropics. That means, unfortunately, I will not be blogging until Jan. 4th.

Enjoy this wonderful time of year!!!

Oh and check it out -- we made it as one of the "100 Best Natural Wellness Blogs." Woohoo!


Happy Eating,

Wheat, Dairy & Sugar-Free Breakfast Option Courtesy of Nature's Path

Sometimes I get really burnt out on breakfast. I can only have eggs and protein shakes for so long. And then, I'm craving something different, but cereal is often too sugary. However, recently I concocted a Nature's Path cereal combo that I fell in love with.

If you're looking to add a new kick to your breakfast routine, try this out:

-1/2 c Nature's Path Hemp Plus Pumpkin Granola
-1/2 c Nature's Path Organic Whole O's (sweetened with pomegranate juice concentrate!)
-2 T flax seeds, ground
-1 banana sliced
-Vanilla almond milk

Yum! Happy Eating!

Wheat-Free, Dairy-Free Grilled Chicken Sandwich

So, it's been 35 degrees in the mornings here. That. Is. Cold. For me, anyway. With the coldness, I start craving warm, yummy foods. And that's when both my crockpot and my George Foreman grill become my best friends when in the kitchen.

I concocted this tasty masterpiece the other weekend. It was delish.
Perfect for a weekend lunch. Filling and warm, feel free to play with the types of non-dairy cheeses you use (I am loving soy mozzarella right now).

Wheat & Dairy-Free Grilled Chicken Sandwich

2 slices wheat-free bread (Ezekiel Bread is my preference.)
1 T Tofutti cream cheese
1 small organic chicken breast, grilled and sliced
1 oz. non-dairy cheese
4 cherry tomatoes, sliced in halves
3 artichoke hearts, sauted in olive oil and chopped

Season chicken with your favorite seasoning blend (Trader Joe's has some great options), grill and slice. Saute artichoke hearts and cherry tomatoes until lightly browned. Spread Tofutti on both slices of bread. Then, add chicken, cheese, tomatoes and artichoke hearts. Place sandwich on George Foreman grill, pull down lid. Let grill for approximately 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and bread is toasted to desired levels. Let cool for a few minutes and slice in half. Serve.

Happy Eating!
