Minted Citrus Salad
Contributed by Rachael, Ancesister @ Ancestreats. We invited friends over for dinner and a guest told me she intended to bring a lemon chiffon cake for dessert. I made this fruit salad to accompany her cake. I caught one of my guests tipping back her ramekin to drink the dressing (the juices!), so it’s probably not a far step off to collect some juices for use … Continue reading Minted Citrus Salad
The Blintz BOMB! My Holy Grail of Blintzes
Contributed by Rachael, Ancesister @ Ancestreats. First, a few words about blintzes (say: blint-ZEZ or blint-ZEES). The name blintz is Yiddish for an unleavened crepe pancake that gets stuffed like a burrito with a fruit or cheese filling, then is fried in butter, and finally is served hot with a garnish of applesauce and sour cream. With origins from Russia as blin or blintchiki, these … Continue reading The Blintz BOMB! My Holy Grail of Blintzes
Kettle Corn at Home
Recipe shared by Rachael, Ancesister @ Ancestreats. Recently, my kids asked me for something crunchy to snack on. I flipped through the cupboard. What I had was an abundance of un-popped corn kernels in a large mason jar. For our recent Saturday night viewings of the Sochi Winter Olympic games, I freshened the pantry supply. We were on for a batch of sweet and salty … Continue reading Kettle Corn at Home
Quick Cilantro-Lime Pork Tacos – Gluten and Top 8 free
Submitted by Michelle Landvik from raising (and cooking for) a Protein Intolerant Child. I was born in Southern California where Mexican food was common and delicious. In the early ’80s, mom decided to move us to the land-locked prairie where tortillas were practically unheard of at the time. The only “Mexican” food people ate in our small town was from a pre-made kit or from a Tex-Mex … Continue reading Quick Cilantro-Lime Pork Tacos – Gluten and Top 8 free

Once I even made some for my … Continue reading Gone in a Flash Matzah ‘Crack’
Jam It With You Chocolate Jammies (allergen-friendly cookies)
Submitted by Elan. When we have a party in my class at school I like it when Mummy bakes these cookies. At home we call these Chocolate Jammies because they are made with jam and chocolate. I have a tree nut allergy. Usually I can’t eat the baked goods that other parents bring in. This year we have a classmate who is allergic to milk … Continue reading Jam It With You Chocolate Jammies (allergen-friendly cookies)
Tia’s Fiesta Guacamole
Submitted by Evonne. First time I tasted guacamole was at one of my Tia’s fiestas. I was about 5 years old, and I must admit, I wasn’t a fan. The guacamole had onions and jalapenos, and my simple palate just couldn’t handle the taste. I vowed to never eat guacamole/avocado again. Fast forward years later, I love guacamole, which reminds me of my Tia’s fiestas, … Continue reading Tia’s Fiesta Guacamole
Spinach Casserole for Potluck
Submitted by R. Melissa. Sometimes, the best thing from an old boyfriend is the recipe he made with you before your relationship ended. Here is one of those. In the early 90s, I was coming off of being a vegetarian, and so was the young man I was dating. We ate many of these together because it combined my fondness for creamed spinach with his hankering for … Continue reading Spinach Casserole for Potluck
