Friday Grok-Friendly Recipe Hunt - Simply Sugar and Gluten Free

This week's Friday Grok-Friendly Recipe Hunt brought me to Amy Green's blog Simply Sugar and Gluten Free. I love Amy's laid-back style and her evident passion for crafting quality dishes. She's even training as a chef! She lost over 60 pounds after giving up white sugar and gluten, so that enough is reason to check out her finely-tuned recipes. Also, her blog has a lot of innovative twists on substitutes in a world without gluten or sugar, so of course I'm inspired by her creativity.

In particular, she offers a lot in the realm of desserts which I will probably peruse in the event of very special occasions - though much of her baking contains non-gluten grain flours, I wouldn't mind baking up some of her teff-flour gingerbread cupcakes for my preschooler's birthday classroom cupcake treat to share with her friends, as my primary goal is avoiding gluten and refined sugar. (I've made them once before, substituting palm sugar for the agave.)

Amy also has a terrific "How To" lineup:

• How to Butterfly Chicken Breasts
• How to Freezer Marinate Chicken
• How to Hard Boil Eggs Perfectly
• How to Line a Cake Pan the No Fuss Way
• How to Make Garlic Paste
• How to Oven Roast a Squash & Dry the Seeds
• How to Peel a Butternut Squash
• How to Roast Peppers
• How to Segment an Orange

Here are some primal-adaptable Simply Sugar and Gluten Free recipes of Amy's that I'm dying to try:

• Dairy-Free Coconut Spice Chai Ice Cream looks delish! (Enough to make me put an ice cream maker on my Christmas wish list! I'd do full-fat coconut milk and skip the agave.)
• Almond Flour Crepes
• Broiled Grapefruit (I'd probably do honey in favor of agave)
• Mushroom Frittata
• Homemade Buttermilk Dill Ranch Dressing (I'd use organic full-fat yoghurt)
