Caramel Apple Coconut Macaroons

Egg/Dairy/Gluten/Grain/Cane Sugar Free Primal/Paleo

Ingredients:

1/4 cup maple syrup or honey

1/4 cup coconut milk

1 1/2 cups finely shredded coconut (I use "Let's Do Coconut")

Vietnamese Inspired Chicken & Cabbage Salad (Paleo)

Once upon a time...long long ago, a little American girl packed up with her family and moved to Southeast Asia. As you might imagine this was quite an adventure! It was filled with new smells, tastes, sounds, colors and many more things the girl had never experienced before.

The open markets in Asia remind me of the farmers markets here, only on steroids. They're

Easy Butternut Squash or Pumpkin Porridge; A Nut & Egg Free Breakfast

This is definitely one of our go-to breakfasts! It's so easy: I just get up an hour before breakfast, throw the squash in the oven and then read a book and drink some tea. 45 minutes later.....we have the wonderful sweet aroma of squash/pumpkin, ready to come out of the oven. The kids love it because they can build and create their own custom breakfast bowls with all their favorite

Snickerdoodle Cookies (Egg/Grain/Gluten/Dairy Free)

There are two kinds of SNICKERDOODLES.....there's the big puffy, "cakey" ones and then there's the RIGHT ones! Sweet, thin, crackled and chewy; these are the only kind of Snickerdoodles that you'll find here at The Urban Poser. So if you are looking for the former then...."These are not the cookies you are looking for....move along." (THANK YOU Obi-Wan and my two very obsessed Starwars

The Best Almond Flour Cinnamon Roll Biscuits

I can't think of a more perfect EASTER morning breakfast than...The Cinnamon Roll! Soft, warm, and inviting as you tear them apart, steam wafting out. There may not be another food that can conjure quite as much nostalgia for me as cinnamon rolls. My mother used to make the most brilliant cinnamon rolls from scratch and I can still still remember the smell of the dough rising and the taste of

RAW Carrot Cake Balls (Vegan, RAW, Paleo, GAPS)

So I'm not really going to write much here since I know you're all going to "skip to the end' anyway so you can get to the chocolaty CAKE BALL goodness as quickly as possible...and I don't blame you!

I think that this might be the very first dessert that I made back when I first went gluten and grain free a little over a year ago. It was also the first sweet thing that I'd had in over 4

RAW Noodles & Veggies W/RAW Asian Pesto Sauce (Paleo, RAW, Vegan, GAPS)

So here we are...FINALLY; my very own "EAT MORE VEGGIES" month. (Thanks to all for your patience as I recovered from the flu). This month is my own personal quest to re-imagine that shared experience of every child's least favorite phrase. We've all heard it: You can probably even hear your mother's voice right now echoing it; "You need to eat your veggies". But seriously, every one of

Cocoa Cherry Biscuits W/ Meyer Lemon Marmalade (Grain & Dairy Free)

Ah Valentine's: It's blissfully edging it's way closer. I can feel it's pull, like gravity; irresistible....drawing me in. If Christmas is all 'sugar plums dancing in my head', then Valentines is all chocolate, cherries and Meyer lemons dancing pretty much everywhere. In the past, I was all about the chocolate and cherries. Somehow lately though, Meyer lemons have taken up permanent

Rosemary Spaghetti Squash Egg Nests (GAPS, Paleo)

This is one of our family FAVORITES. It's as though, when I make this I can do no wrong! They are pretty easy to make and well worth the effort for a special occasion breakfast. Which apparently means, everyday in my house. We make these at least once a week.

Rosemary Spaghetti Squash Egg Nests

Ingredients:

3 cups lightly packed cooked spaghetti squash (

White Wine & Thyme Cashew Gravy (GAPS/Paleo, Gluten Free))

To be perfectly honest, I never was much of a gravy lover till I migrated south. I do love my gravy now though. I'll put it on almost anything. The gravy that we are about to explore today is much like a cross between a white gravy(the kind you'd put over biscuits) and a nice caramel colored turkey gravy. What's different about this one though is the absence of grains, starches and

Grain Free Pumpkin, Spice and Chocolate Loaf (Gluten/Dairy/Grain Free))

This recipe is based on my Best Ever Almond Flour Pumpkin Muffins. My two hungry boys, with their mouths overly stuffed...insisted I blog this immediately! So here it is, yet another pumpkin recipe. This time with warm spices, sweet pie pumpkin puree and earthy dark chocolate. Will I ever get tired of pumpkin recipes? Probably not, at least not till they're out of season again.

My favorite

Best Ever Almond Flour Pumpkin Muffins (Grain Free)

Continuing with my pumpkin obsession, here is my latest addition. I have to say these are the best almond four muffins I have had yet! The crumb was delicate, not mushy or soggy and the tops had a thin layer of crispness to them. I nearly ate the whole batch in one sitting!

Before purchasing almond flour, you should know a few things. The best flour to purchase is the

Savory Crepes With Garlic & Rosemary Roasted Veggies (gluten free, dairy free, grain free)

I have always had a weakness for crepes. Sweet or savory, I'll take them anyway they come. When I knew that my "gluten crepe" days had ended, I knew I had to find another option. ENTER: Coconut flour crepes, and they are actually pretty good. Coconut flour is packed with fiber which makes it a great addition to a grain free diet.

I decided to start off with a nice "savory" crepe. One of my

Soppressata, Caramelized Onion and Green Olive Quiche with an Almond Crust (gluten/dairy free)

I might have gotten a little carried away with this recipe! I was shooting for beauty and taste. So, if the steps in this recipe are just a few too many for the likes of you, have no fear! You can always throw it all in a pan and cook it that way. Promise me you'll make the crust separately though or I have NO idea what will come out of your oven. However, if you are in the mood for

Baked Rosemary, Almond & Butternut Squash Gnocchi (gluten free)

Gnocchi has been around since Roman times. It's name is derived from an Italian word meaning "knot in wood" or "knuckle". This wonderfully thick dumpling lends itself well to a variety of mediums such as semolina flour, white flour, potato, cheese, sweet potato, squash, bread crumbs and more. Some people like to add egg while others would never think of doing such a thing. However you

Gluten Free Carrot Cake Minis w/honey-yogurt topping

I am a baker at heart. I love to bake and after 15 years of making wedding cakes, french pastries, tarts and dreaming of my own little bakery shop, you can bet that "gluten intolerance" was not a popular diagnosis for me. When my doctor said no gluten again EVER I knew I had some soul searching to do. Ok, I admit that might be an over exaggeration. But I did have some serious
