Thin Buckwheat Pizza Crust (Gluten-Free, Yeast-Free, Vegan)

I am not sure how many of you have fond memories of pizza. From what we hear, pizza is sorely missed when going gluten and dairy-free. This yeast-free, gluten-free (and xanthan gum-free) crust recipe is a newer creation of mine. I do have another yeast-risen sorghum crust that I haven't shared yet.

Here is a vegan alternative to the traditional Thanksgiving turkey....a casserole with the flavors of Turkey. Poultry seasoning, sage, shallots, beans, squash, and apples all slowly cooked to perfection in the oven. The vegetable stock and arrowroot provide a thick sauce that holds the flavors.

Orange Pepper Salmon with Cranberry Sauce

Some years, it just feels good to bring something different to the Thanksgiving table—something lighter, deeply nourishing, and still full of those cozy fall flavors. This baked salmon has been one of my children’s favorites for years. It’s simple, flavorful, and wonderfully tender. It’s a beautiful option for a smaller gathering or any holiday meal when you want a meat-free main dish. I love serving this salmon with a bright cranberry sauce. You can use my classic Cranberry Orange Sauce, or try my Raw Cranberry Sauce for an extra-fresh, antioxidant-rich pairing. Both versions complement the richness of the salmon beautifully. In the photo here, I’ve added a quick red quinoa pilaf, which makes an easy and colorful side dish.

15-Minute Poached Salmon

The other day, while Tom was out of town, I got home from running a few errands at 5pm. The kids were all hungry and ready for dinner….like now! I had a beautiful fillet of wild Coho salmon which I had bought the previous day, ready to be seasoned and baked.
