"Three Sisters" refers to the wonderful combination of beans, corn and squash -- foods traditionally grown and consumed together by many American Indian tribes.

Lucas's Dairy Free Lasagna
         

I created this recipe as a way of getting my 2 year old grandson to eat meat (which he is reluctant to chew) and get some iron into this diet.  He is allergic to wheat products, dairy and tomatoes.  This recipe is easy to make and tastes delicious.  I make it in a dish about half the size of a normal lasanga dish.  When cold, I cut the lasagna into 8 servin...

One mother’s story: celiac disease
           

The Tafts have turned Erica's gluten-free diet into a family affair.

Although my husband called her “Smiley,” our happy baby, Erica, was clingy and cranky. For two months, we cleaned up after our 22-month-old as she vomited every day and watched in growing alarm as her tummy grew more and more distended, while her arm and leg mus...

Hot Chicken Salad
         

This is a recipe from a collection of Amish Recipes published by a restaurant in Northern Indiana called Das Dutchman Essenhaus.  Even though there are quite a few hot chicken salad, I'm posting this one because it is a little different and I want to know the nutrition information.  The recipe calls for real mayonnaise.  Do not sub fat free or low fat mayo as it wil...

Lebanese/Syrian Fasoulia
         

This dish is similar to Bazella, with its tomato-based broth. In this dish, the main ingredients are fasoulia, a type of lima bean and meat. Cubes of lamb may be substituted for the beef. I learned how to prepare this dish while I was living in Syria for a year, studying abroad.

Please note: if you use dry lima beans, they must soak in water overnight. The s...

Lebanese/Syrian Bazella
         

After having lived in Syria for the past year for school, I learned how to make several authentic dishes. They will probably taste different outside the Middle East due to the availability of items seasonally and brands of ingredients used. This dish is a blend of carrots, peas and meat in a tomato-based broth that is served with Middle Eastern-style rice. Ara...
