Your family will be none the wiser when you offer up this vegan mac and 'cheese'. The pureed squash mimics the creamy texture a traditional cheese sauce would offer, and since it is made using gluten-free macaroni shells, you could confidently serve it to gluten-intolerant folks as well as those on a calorie-restricted diet. With a supper that will make everyone smile, you are certainly squashing the belief that cheese is necessary at all…

AIP Breakfast Tapioca Porridge (Grain Free and Paleo)
Whether you are following an AIP diet, you're intolerant to grains, or you simply want to switch up the taste of your breakfast porridge with a great and creamy texture, this healthy grain-free recipe is perfect for you! This vanilla-maca tapioca porridge with rhubarb and raspberry sauce is one of my favorite grain-free alternatives. As you probably saw on my Facebook and Instagram, I often make it. What I love about this recipe is that it's suitable for anybody as I worked very hard to make it compliant to basically every allergy in the world.
Grain-Free Butter Bread
After some trepidation, I finally decided to grant the roughly 1,000 food wishes for a grain-free butter bread recipe. And it exceeded my expectations! Without wheat flour and yeast, it won't be true bread. But if you're off carbs, and have been dreaming about a nice slice of buttered toast with your eggs, this is well worth a try. It tastes relatively neutral, with a very subtle egginess and faint almond flavor, and a texture reminiscent of an extra moist and spongy white bread.
Chia Fresca
This is a refreshing drink much like lemonade.
