Welcome!

I've begun a quest to create delicious foods that I can eat! I have about 40 food allergies. I went to my natropath, Dr. Heather Roberts, in December of 2009. I thought she was going to give me some ointment to make my acne go away. Little did I know that the cause of my acne was so many toxins built up in my body that my kidney and liver couldn't handle it. So my body was pushing the toxins through my skin. Lovely, right? Well, through some muscle testing we found that because I was eating all of these foods I was allergic to I was continuing to get more toxins in my body. Now I am eating allergen free. A lot of people think it's odd. Some people think it's cool. I think it's annoying. I've had to change my lifestyle so I can cook and eat. I have to bring my own food to social gatherings and then answer any questions. However, I'm seeing the benefits. I have more energy, my mind is more clear, and I eat amazing food. So, I created this blog as an easy way to share my experiences and my food. Enjoy!

Frosting

So I found a frosting recipe that's one part coconut oil and two parts agave nectar with a some vanilla to taste. I thought it was super sweet but good. I then found out that Agave is extremely high in fructose, which is just not good for anyone in large amounts. So I tried the same recipe with Brown Rice Syrup to replace the Agave. I liked it a lot better. It wasn't overwhelming sweet but still enjoyable. I liked to put it on my brown rice cakes. Well, as I was just writing out the list of my allergies in the previous post, I realized that I'm allergic to Brown Rice Syrup. Just my luck. Who would have thought it'd be so hard to find a good sweetener to bake with? I've heard Stevia is the best sweetener around but I don't know how it works with baking. If you have any experience with Stevia, please share.
