First Week of August Meal Plan; Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Soy Free, Nut Free Recipes

August 15, 2016 by Kristina Leave a Comment

Whenever I talk to people about being gluten free, dairy free, soy free, and nut free I get a ton of questions. Usually the first one is, “What do you eat?” Well, lots of stuff! With our garden and the farmer’s market in full swing, I wanted to write a post with our menu from last week.  All of the recipes are gluten free, dairy free, soy free, and nut free. Most are egg free as well.  If you frequent the farmer’s market you shouldn’t have any trouble finding the fresh ingredients. I provide links to any harder to find items that can be purchased on Amazon. We got our first cherry tomatoes and jalapenos early in the week. It was also the first week of corn at the farmers market so I’m making a favorite, Roast Corn with Jalapeno and Lime.  I tried out a new recipe that I’ve had floating around in my head for a few weeks, for Lamb Chops with Cantaloupe Salsa, because that just debuted this week at the market too!

Not only are we cooking up a storm but we’re canning up a storm too! On Wednesday I made a batch of Organic Bread and Butter Pickles with cucumbers from the garden, and a batch of Senf Gurken (Mustard Pickles) from this recipe. We chose it because it said that it works well for yellowed, bloated cucumbers. Hopefully we like it because today we picked 5 or 6 pickling cucumbers that I unfortunately let get too large again (along with our first (and only) green bean, and 2 straight 8 cucumbers that are ready to eat).
