As promised, here it is, finally, the White Nectarine Ice Cream. Naturally sweetened and of course gluten-free, dairy-free, and soy-free. The photo doesn't do this recipe justice. The consistency and flavors are simply amazing. Even after 24 hours of freezing, it is still soft and easy to scoop just like traditional ice cream made with cream and sugar. When I make this, my kids practically eat the whole container in one sitting. I have to cut them off and hide the container in the back of the freezer! So let's celebrate the end of summer with one last hoorah and eat ice cream!

Kitcheree is a highly nourishing, hypoallergenic stew made from mung beans and brown rice. It assists in the detoxification process as it is very easy to digest. The spices and summer vegetables create a luscious stew that can be made in just minutes using a pressure cooker, though you don't need one to make this.

This very simple, nourishing soup supports your body’s natural detoxification process—though you'd never guess it by the taste. Plus, it only takes a few minutes to prepare, making it perfect if you feel like you're starving during Phase 2 of the Elimination Diet! Cabbage is a potent detoxifier. It contains a wide range of phytochemicals, including glucosinolates, which break down into compounds like isothiocyanates and indoles. These compounds are powerful inducers of the liver’s Phase II detoxification enzymes, which help neutralize and eliminate carcinogens. They also support hormone metabolism and have been shown to stimulate the destruction of human tumor cells.

Romano beans are similar to the standard green bean, but they are flat and grow in Mediterranean-type climates. I bought a bag from a local organic farmer at the Saturday Market. I was thrilled to see that this particular stand was using Bio Bags to sell their produce!

Today I thought I would share a very simple pancake syrup recipe that is full of blueberry lusciousness.

The other evening, as I was preparing dinner, I thought about using up some of the zucchini that I had. Why not layer it, sort of like scalloped potatoes I thought? Hmmm, almond flour might be nice in between the layers of zucchini as would the sweet walla walla onions I had.

The days of overflowing gardens and refrigerators full of produce are upon us! What to do with all of those peppers, tomatoes, and onions? I got it! A fresh black bean salad!

Here is another summer recipe for you to sink your taste buds into. Refreshing, colorful, slightly salty, and full of flavor, this salad would make a great addition to a summer picnic!

We had a cooler evening yesterday, perfect for Indian food I thought. I made up a double batch of the Lentil and Spinach Dal recipe from my cookbook along with two different curries.

I received an email from a reader about two weeks ago for an allergen-free ginger cookie. When I saw the recipe I knew I had to give them a try. Here is the lovely email that Pam sent me: Ali, I have been following your blog for a while.
