Recipes
I've been cooking low-and-slow in a wide-bottom pan to fairly consistent rave reviews. I cube turnips, rutabaga, and parsnips; add onions and garlic, and let them simmer really low, in coconut water. Then we add whatever spices, salts, butter, etc. to our individual tastes and requirements.
A popular breakfast is pancakes using Pamela's mix, 50:50 with rolled oats. Her ingredient list is below.
Ingredients:
Brown Rice Flour, White Rice Flour, Cultured Buttermilk, Almond Meal (may appear as brown flecks), Tapioca Starch, Sweet Rice Flour, Potato Starch, Grainless & Aluminum-Free Baking Powder (Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Potato Starch, Sodium Bicarbonate), Baking Soda, Sea Salt, Xanthan Gum.
@guest#21 Sounds delicious. I’ve got to try that, maybe with cocnut milk since I have that on hand.
@bella Oh I’ve meant to tell you that I tried your beef root stew recipe, and really enjoyed it! Thank you! 🙂 Haven’t tried the meatloaf yet, but plan to do so.
Easy Black Bean Burritos (GF + Vegan)
540 ml can of black beans, drained/rinsed
1/4 onion, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon onion powder)
1 clove garlic, minced (or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder)
1 to 2 tablespoons oil
1 to 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (optional)
splash of water
salt to taste
6 white corn tortillas, heated
cooked rice (optional)
Sauté the onion in the oil until cooked, then add the garlic and stir for a few secconds. Add the beans, then a splash of water to make it easier to mash them. Season with nutritional yeast and salt to taste. Serve in the tortillas, with or without rice.
The nutritional yeast tastes a bit like cheese. I like it because I grew up having it, but it might be an aquired taste, I’m not sure. 😋 The kind I’ve been useing is made by Bragg (which isn’t contaminated with lead). I wrote to Brag to confirm that it wasn’t colored with Beta Carotene, and they wrote back to say it doesn’t contain any vitamin A precursors.

Sounds wonderful @paddleduck! Bella
I'm making the beef stew again tonight and including cauliflower at husband's request. This time I'm using water instead of beef broth. 🙂
It’s really good with cauliflower! Bella
Roasted Balsalmic Cauliflower
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil ( I use ghee or deoderised coconut oil or butter)
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 head cauliflower, chopped into bite size pieces
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet
2. Stir the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and garlic together in a bowl. Add the cauliflower and toss to coat; spread the mixture onto the lined baking sheet.
3. Stirring occasionally, bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 20 minutes.
I have been doing low A for a while for my family and thought I would share some things I have made.
Beans and rice
tacos (with blue corn shells, salt pepper and garlic seasoning, and daiya mozzarella vegan cheese)
burritos (roast in slow cooker shredded and wrapped in organic homemade tortillas with daiya cheese)
Nachos (blue chips) same toppings as tacos
hotdogs (hard to find without paprika tho, all beef kind)
biscuits and gravy (homemade sausage without all the spices, dairy free homemade biscuits)
meatloaf and mashed potatoes (no ketchup, in the instant pot!)
egg whites and chicken sausage
fake Mac n cheese (Pinterest has cheese recipes)
fake alfredo (with potatoes, on Pinterest)
i also found WHITE sweet potatoes at Kroger and they are sooooo good! I can post recipes if anyone wants, most of what I found is on Pinterest if you search AIP recipes you will get a few ideas.
Guest, will you please adopt me? 🙂
Can you explain the fake Alfredo with potatoes? Sounds exciting! I do make fake Mac with nutritional yeast!

Blue corn is better than yellow corn but it still has about 23 µg beta carotene per 100g according to this study. https://sci-hub.tw/https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17455952
Probably not a big worry except for sensitive people. White corn is the one that is really low about 5 µg.
