This recipe was a hearty one-dish meal that my family enjoyed. I can't pass up the mini carnival or acorn squash when I see them at the store. They're just so darn cute. I like to use unsweetened dried cherries which I found at Trader Joe's. It can be difficult to find dried cherries without sunflower or safflower oil and added sugar. To bring a little burst of sweetness to them, I like to soak ...

Several years ago (before the realization of autoimmune disease, leaky gut, and food allergies), I posted a recipe for Chicken with Mushroom Wine "Cream Sauce using cashew milk as a substitute for the cream.

The recipe is very versatile. You can substitute the ...
Fish Tacos with Pineapple Cilantro Yogurt Sauce (AIP, Paleo, dairy-free, refined sugar-free)
Fish tacos are one of my favorites. It's an easy meal and fun to eat. For the soft "taco shells", I use the Plantain Wraps from one of my favorite healing blogs, Simple & Merry. These wraps are a staple in my home. We use them for pizza, sandwich wraps, burritos, and now... fish tacos. I like to serve these tacos with my AIP Coleslaw recipe and a pineapple cilantro yogurt sauce made with ...
