Since I was first diagnosed with food allergies in December of 2009 this was my list of reactants, since then I have crossed some items off as no longer allergens! Very exciting. It took a lot discipline to wait a year to allow my gut to heal before trying things. It was scary to try things again, my first egg tasted terrible, my first cup of coffee tasted like liquid gold. :-) I do recommend testing to see if you still have an allergy, but only for gut ones and only after allowing yourself to heal. Good luck!<b><o:p></o:p></b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
It's been a year since I posted anything, a year since I left Portland, a year in the Navy. I haven't continued my food blog for many reasons: A. The food in Virginia is not better than Portland B. Regardless of how amazing my cooking is, I still don't think it's that cool. C. I didn't want to have any more hobbies that involve me sitting on my ass. So today I've decided I have something worth while to write about and since it's 4AM and I can't sleep-what else is there to do. </div>
</div>
<div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Sweat and Spice</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Wherever I am and Whatever I eat, I want to feel the burn.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">To start this year I decided on a few things. One was that my sister and I were going to start a long distance workout program called #sissyfit. It is a way to be accountable to someone for working out. </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I was pretty skeptical when my sister proposed the idea but it's been working great!</span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">When we run we instagram a photo </span><a href="http://in.5thvillage.com/sissyfit/" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">#sissyfit</a><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> and record our distances on </span><a href="http://nikeplus.nike.com/plus/" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Nike+</a><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. My goals for the past two months have been to run 45 miles! I can't believe I'm 90 miles into the year. Always good to have someone who can hassel you about working out. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT0lb72xo-Te-kDjzPnmCvReITqreTlsqaDcUS4Fk6x3hFOcp3SxWglPFi5BihKP8P-LSywcVxWrjtjJyEo3mby_K4E_McxusNSSL_Lpgu_a6XWG3_7JahnqhCnM5eezAIMMoWTVrG-Zw/s1600/Spice.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT0lb72xo-Te-kDjzPnmCvReITqreTlsqaDcUS4Fk6x3hFOcp3SxWglPFi5BihKP8P-LSywcVxWrjtjJyEo3mby_K4E_McxusNSSL_Lpgu_a6XWG3_7JahnqhCnM5eezAIMMoWTVrG-Zw/s200/Spice.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The second part of my new year has been an addiction to eating anything that tastes like fire. Whether it's Sriracha mayonaise on my sandwich, or never eating a fried egg without Tapat<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;">í</span>o, sign me up! I have yet to have 'too much' garlic, ginger, onion, cilantro, not to mention red chili paste, spicy mustard, wasabi, or tabasco. When I go out I should ask for a menu and the hot sauce. This initially started when my roommate was trying to quit smoking-needed another way to 'get a fix.' My taste buds now require a royal kick in the pants to be satisfied at nearly every meal. I carry red chili flake in my purse and have started collecting money towards the hot sauce fund at work. I don't mind crying while I eat. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">So there you have it, my current obsession in life of feeling the burn. </span></div>

It is true artisan gluten free pizza! I unfortunately only found this place approximately three weeks before moving out of Portland but I plan on going back when I visit. This was the best crust I have found; crispy and delicious. Doesn't taste like cardboard. The toppings are delicious and very well done. It tastes like real pizza! It was a very Mom and Pop environment, incredibly welcoming. The waitress offered me a glass a new wine they were sampling. Very fun. Family friendly yet quiet, lots of regulars. Must try in Portland!<br />

So much to share! I just completed my Naval Officer training in Newport, RI and have arrived at my ultimate duty station-Portsmouth Naval Medical Center near Norfolk, Virginia. I have a three year contract here and I could not be more excited for the food adventures that await me! I also look forward to sharing the ones I had on the way in Newport, Boston, New York City, Baltimore, and Norfolk. For now I must house hunt so I can get back to cooking as soon as possible!</div>Sweet Peahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06447126615718971872noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860542968760286255.post-47531919381374459482012-01-09T00:51:00.000-08:002012-01-09T00:51:01.134-08:00New Look!So excited! Thanks sis for the great new blog design. I've been lacking on posts lately due to holidays, news of my new naval career and because I couldn't post on something so ugly. I'm excited to get back online and get things rolling! Happy new year! In less than 30 days I'll be headed 3000 miles to start my new career as a Naval Officer in the Nurse Corps. After 5 weeks of training in Rhode Island I'll head to Virginia where the Portsmouth/Norfolk area will be my new home. Can't wait! Hoping to continue published my food adventures, especially those in the military.

It worked out great. I cooked it with a cornish game hen and another dish of extra stuffing. It was delicious. I'm really glad I made the hen, it made the stuffing extra-fantastic. I used almond creme as my dairy free substitute. I'm enjoyed the fennel. This was great recipe.<br />

Serves: 10-12<br />
Preparation time: 20m<br />
Cooking time: 1hr 10m
<em><strong style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;">Ingredients</strong></em><br />
<br />
• 1 loaf of Udi's Whole Grain Gluten Free Bread<br />
• 1 loaf of Udi's White Sandwich Gluten Free Bread<br />
• 1/4 cup of fresh flat-leaf parsley<br />
• 3 tbsp of fresh sage<br />
• Salt<br />
• Pepper<br />
• 1 cup of unsalted butter<br />
• 2 onions (or 1 large onion)<br />
• 1/2 cup of chopped fennel<br />
• 1/2 cup of chopped celery<br />
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten<br />
• 1 cup low sodium chicken broth<br />
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
<br />
<em><strong style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;"><u><br /></u></strong></em><br />
<em><strong style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;"><u>Directions</u></strong></em><br />
Lightly butter each side of Udi's Gluten Free Whole Grain and Udi's White Sandwich breads then broil until slightly brown/toasted. Allow bread to cool completely on a wire rack.<br />
<br />
Place toasted, cooled bread in a Ziploc bag and break into bread crumbs (or pulse in a food processor). Place bread crumbs in a bowl and add parsley, sage, salt, and pepper.<br />
<br />
Melt butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat; add onions and sauté until onions are softened. Add fennel and celery, stirring occasionally until vegetables are soft. Transfer vegetables to the bowl with the toasted Udi's gluten free bread crumbs, parsley, sage, salt, and pepper. Add eggs, stock, cream and gently toss.<br />
<br />
Transfer mixture to a buttered shallow baking dish. Bake, covered, in middle of oven for 30 minutes at 325°F.<br />
<br />
To brown the stuffing, uncover and bake for an additional 20 minutes.

I was delighted to find such a label design. Forgive the ugly background (the dirty countertop at the beach cabin). This fantastic packaging was just... deceiving. The dough smells bad and tastes bad. It has a cardboard/plastic bag smell and taste for that matter. I guess these 'fake' cookies are really just too 'fake.'<br />

One of the many cravings in gluten free diet. Onion rings! A great way to get a non-greased onion ring is with the oven-baked method. Less messy and more healthy. I used Glutino's gluten free bread crumbs which is made from milled corn. They turned out great and I can't wait to do it again. Inspired by the <a href="http://awoodennest.blogspot.com/2011/07/oven-baked-onion-rings.html">Wooden Nest's </a>recipe for oven baked onion rings. Thanks Lindsay!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Ingredients:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
-Big, round onion</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
-Brown rice flour</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
-Egg (or dairy free milk)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
-Glutino's GF Bread Crumbs</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. Remember for onion rings you cut the onion the wrong way. Instead of cutting from top to root you'll slice it through the middle. Cut onion to desired thickness. The thicker the onion the longer it will need to cook. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3. Coat the onions in brown rice flour. I used the ziplock-bag-shake method. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4. Set up your station: once floured, dip in egg or milk, coat with bread crumbs and set on parchment lined cookie sheet. </div>

I made this with my sister Rachel and friend Britney the other night and it was quite a hit. I'm lucky I jotted down the recipe with their help because I would have never remembered all we threw in. This was a collaboration of us standing around the stock pot throwing in what we thought was best. It was a very fun night! </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">4. Add 4 cups chicken broth (less for a chunkier soup). Add the dashes of cayenne, nutmeg, paprika and coriander seeds. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">5. Allow to boil for 15-20 minutes and then blend using immersion blender. </span><br />

I felt very comfortable ordering allergy-free. I told the waitress I was gluten free and dairy free and started to describe what that was and she told me not to worry. At first I was not sure but she said that all she needs to know is no diary and no gluten and the chefs know what to do. I trusted this and had no issues! Very nice. Great service. Gluten Free Entree: Idaho trout with chanterelles and spinach. Yum!</div>

My sister, friend and I were out vintage shopping and decided to stop at <a href="http://www.brasserieportland.com/">Brasserie Monmarte</a> for happy hour. To our surprise it was utterly fantastic. It was chic, classy, and delicious. It was also surprising allergy free even though the French cannot could without crème. </div>

For heaven's sake I had to post this Croque Madame that a friend ordered. Not in any way allergy free but beautiful none the less. I believe is was a grilled pork belly and gruyére sandwich topped with a fried egg and béchamel sauce. Sinful.</div>

Well, I headed to Las Vegas for a weekend to attend a wedding. I looked up this Celebrity restaurant weeks in advanced and was excited to have dinner with my friend Fran. Spanish cuisine was of course what I was interested in. Italian is a silly endeavor for one with gluten allergies and I miss Spain after living there in college. Julian Serrano's restaurant in the Aria Hotel was my pick. </div>

I new that's exactly what I needed in life and ended up there for breakfast on my way home from work. <a href="http://caferioco.com/#">Cafe Rio Co!</a><br /> Aaron and Chelsea started this place about 2 months ago, it had been there 7-year dream. They have a very cute cafe little cafe. A counter, an espresso machine, some hot plates, a few seats and food! They use all organic ingredients and have meat, vegetarian and vegan options. They also serve high quality coffee and tea. They have pastries brought in from New Cascadia Traditional Bakery, another of my frequent stops.<br /> I've been there twice now and can't wait for more. I haven't been able to get beyond the waffle rancheros. Matt has had the Hunny Nut Banana and the Ham and Cheese. I'll work on branching out. :) I highly recommend this place. Even if you're not an allergy-free person (like Matt). It has a great vibe, very homey, very friendly. 22nd and Burnside, if you need a date you know who to call.<br /><br />Here's Chelsea HAND SQUEEZING my order of OJ. It's the best I've ever had!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifWQz6yAs4W71stCCE3-hp5JflOIKtFKuCVfwdszbO2zdB_gBeqSE_uL_n21DqND4qlu5d3haFf1C-QKp5kpvkAbb1vtLnLjlnCpxbWx7X3vuXh6wGcFhR-vRwXaHphNAZMPwvY9T8r_A/s1600/IMG_0711.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifWQz6yAs4W71stCCE3-hp5JflOIKtFKuCVfwdszbO2zdB_gBeqSE_uL_n21DqND4qlu5d3haFf1C-QKp5kpvkAbb1vtLnLjlnCpxbWx7X3vuXh6wGcFhR-vRwXaHphNAZMPwvY9T8r_A/s320/IMG_0711.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649441898177579362" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Ham and Cheese Waffle<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeaBnsiuWG9XPEXE5Dfyq1PG_LfNPSrBJTBzGRSvEYLPMNLgPxUn3pr2v10KCk6fR7Pda5vPsJKWDJ0HcE7zXns2-Fa3ng8xGKDmEIpASNqBB0k71SRYqlIk3_Nk3XOo-YuvO7Tokn40Q/s1600/IMG_0705.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeaBnsiuWG9XPEXE5Dfyq1PG_LfNPSrBJTBzGRSvEYLPMNLgPxUn3pr2v10KCk6fR7Pda5vPsJKWDJ0HcE7zXns2-Fa3ng8xGKDmEIpASNqBB0k71SRYqlIk3_Nk3XOo-YuvO7Tokn40Q/s320/IMG_0705.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649441892775355698" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Waffle Ranchero YUM!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn8fhkWe5dM3tecAkw7OvkFXNAuFctc8LC7JawFiH9LOhPo-BzutNXKJbnQgTLcuSlxCaETmIcYmezUzclOoPUBZOC6ydACllSwppoY_kYcJc-vT9GswBGs1fUPi0KeFsLA1TOgpk0rB8/s1600/IMG_0703.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn8fhkWe5dM3tecAkw7OvkFXNAuFctc8LC7JawFiH9LOhPo-BzutNXKJbnQgTLcuSlxCaETmIcYmezUzclOoPUBZOC6ydACllSwppoY_kYcJc-vT9GswBGs1fUPi0KeFsLA1TOgpk0rB8/s320/IMG_0703.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649441889723994274" border="0" /></a>Sweet Peahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06447126615718971872noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860542968760286255.post-12849378474956272362011-09-06T01:48:00.000-07:002011-09-06T02:00:30.174-07:00Some good dishes of the month:Safeco Field goes gluten free?

For the potluck I'm making stuffed bell peppers. Originally I had planned on making fajitas this week so I had everything I needed.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Quinoa/Sausage Stuffed Bell Peppers</span><br />4 bell peppers, any colors<br />Quiona, chicken broth, bay leaf<br />Italian sausage (I used sweet but spicy would be good)<br />1 small onion, diced<br />2 garlic cloves, minced<br />1/4 cup fresh parsley<br />salt and pepper<br /><br />-Gut and cut the peppers, either top off or length-wise so they will fit in an oven-safe dish. Boil them for about 5 minutes.<br />-Cook quinoa according to directions. I used chicken broth instead of water and added a bay leaf<br />-Oops, breakfast is in the picture too :-)<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc5RFy0sh-RMZiEKDqEjVMBYa58WTt56emO5Mb0OA4nBqbNep0H14ayQ9J2LWsumtxfC_u_CtidI6t4lCdW89JjcFty1S-qS-WQlTi5zGcCiwcAEQ_fer06XBC_jomeQ3-HDYM0Izuqyc/s1600/IMG_0720.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc5RFy0sh-RMZiEKDqEjVMBYa58WTt56emO5Mb0OA4nBqbNep0H14ayQ9J2LWsumtxfC_u_CtidI6t4lCdW89JjcFty1S-qS-WQlTi5zGcCiwcAEQ_fer06XBC_jomeQ3-HDYM0Izuqyc/s320/IMG_0720.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648959164349938930" border="0" /></a><br /><br />-Brown the Italian sausage with onion, garlic, add parsley and remove from heat<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivB78HcURYRT8WOsI3jMVuOtkFqPe2pA-Ik9N7Bgb9sE3YlpZvv5Oo6nxZI2fETStd2BiflIJb95iO-IAntrcNdHWaMxPoaKEHldOIRV9grocqSWD8n2zhjp93XOSh5SEATxnIDlILOHo/s1600/IMG_0722.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivB78HcURYRT8WOsI3jMVuOtkFqPe2pA-Ik9N7Bgb9sE3YlpZvv5Oo6nxZI2fETStd2BiflIJb95iO-IAntrcNdHWaMxPoaKEHldOIRV9grocqSWD8n2zhjp93XOSh5SEATxnIDlILOHo/s320/IMG_0722.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648959159343173314" border="0" /></a><br /><br />-Cook quinoa like rice, until water is absorbed, remove bay leaf<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWNUv0eXuZ0qrS7e0nNreyDwzPicR3_vC3e2B_3hfY3J5kBaeda_aR9HBqaRgO4tBftGeG2FZSn6B1FZfwkbStGIxoapsXXenoGbUWJXxzhaVruE8uMsQx9tlO3mo-SoR7vtS_nUy_GQ0/s1600/IMG_0723.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWNUv0eXuZ0qrS7e0nNreyDwzPicR3_vC3e2B_3hfY3J5kBaeda_aR9HBqaRgO4tBftGeG2FZSn6B1FZfwkbStGIxoapsXXenoGbUWJXxzhaVruE8uMsQx9tlO3mo-SoR7vtS_nUy_GQ0/s320/IMG_0723.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648959156913399298" border="0" /></a><br /><br />-Add quinoa to Italian sausage so it will soak up the juices.
