Lemon Parsley Chicken (Dairy-Free)

August 25, 2012 By elviira 4 Comments

Lately I’ve preferred to bake a whole chicken rather than chicken filets. Filets are practically free of tasty fat and all other good things which the whole chicken has. What I like most is the crispy, fatty and tasty skin… Yes, I love to eat it but I also know many people who simply throw it away.

This dish is a hearty combination of few simple but appetizing — and healthy — ingredients. A few carefully thought elements create a tasty combination of flavors which are tied together with rich extra virgin olive oil.

Melon and Raspberry Salad with Vanilla Coconut Sauce (Dairy-Free, Vegan)

August 4, 2012 By elviira 2 Comments

It’s hard to believe that something this delicious is so simple, and vegan! I usually use tons of organic dairy products, especially heavy cream, but lately I’ve been into coconut milk because of its smooth and naturally sweet flavor.

This succulent dessert — or breakfast — is topped with delicious coconut milk sauce with a hint of vanilla. The sauce consists of a mere two ingredients! Even better, this simple fruit salad is surprisingly low in carbs.

Creamy Crispy Curry Cabbage — CCCC. Or 4C. Four C-sons. Don’t let the bad jokes prevent you from trying this delicious side dish — it’s a real delish! Serve it with grass-fed chicken for a full meal, or for a little hunger just like that accompanied with some gluten-free low-carb bread and some fresh veggies.

Yum!

Grain-Free Crackers with Olive Oil (Dairy-Free)

July 6, 2012 By elviira 6 Comments

When making experiments with my 1-2-3 Bread I once brushed the loaf generously with extra virgin olive oil, and sprinkled with unrefined sea salt. The crust was crunchy and deliciously salty. That gave me an idea to try out crackers with the same method — almond flour and eggs, brushed with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled salt on top.

After few attempts I found the best ratio between almond flour and eggs. Then adding olive oil and salt wasn’t much of rocket science. The result: simple but delicious, very very addictive crackers. Easy to modify as well, of course.

1-2-3 Bread (Dairy-Free)

June 14, 2012 By elviira 151 Comments

I don’t remember how many experiments were needed that I was satisfied with this recipe. I just can say many, and maybe some more. All I wanted was a really simple recipe for easy gluten-free low-carb bread made from ingredients you can find from almost every grocery store, or at least every health food store. A bread, which is easy to vary and makes a nice base for sweet and savory toppings alike.

Finding the best ratio between these simplest ingredients took looong time. Luckily my toddler and my husband loved most of the results, so did my parents whenever they happened to visit us and I was in the mood for baking (well, I’m always in the mood for baking…) I bet you’ll like this simpler than simple recipe, so enjoy!
