Kitchen Tested who recently posted an excellent pizza recipe here. I made quite a few changes to the recipe since I don’t like cheese in my crust and wanted to make a sauce from scratch. This is low carb for a pizza too so its healthier than usual and kosher for passover. I did have … Continue reading »

Parve Palak
Sagg is a leafy vegetable, Palak is Spinach. Thanks for pointing that Peri out. Its usually accompanied by potatoes or cheese also called Paneer. Sagg Paneer is often what you get at Indian restaurants. Unfortunately its not parve so I had to modify it. I used a recipe by Aarti Sequeira from foodnetwork.com. Its a … Continue reading »
Flourless Pumpkin Almond Bread
This was from a recipe I posted on my facebook page. Its from caveman site, I will post the link up when I figure out where I left the URL. However its been modified to be pumpkin flavored. Unfortunately I don’t think you can do brachos over this. It contains no grain which was one … Continue reading »
Lamb and Green Bean Stew
This is a recipe inspired by Claudia Roden’s The Book of Jewish Food. The recipe itself is called Avas or Harricot Bean Stew. I used string/green beans instead which might not technically be a bean. I don’t have trouble eating these type of beans and they don’t seem to cause digestive distress. Asparugus or brussels sprouts might … Continue reading »
Minty Carrot Chicken- Lessons from a tricky dish by Claudia Roden

Unfortunately the coconut flour is hard to work with so it does not stick together very nicely like other flours can. But I used … Continue reading »
Pseudo Smoked Broiled Ribeye steak
The best way I know how to make a rib eye steak is to hickory smoke it on a bbq grill. An even better method is to use a long term smoker if the meat is thick enough. However since its in the 30′s generally this works well. I was thinking of calling this a … Continue reading »
Sweet Potato and Pumpkin Chicken
This is kind of an odd combination, but I got this idea from two sources. One was from a protein bar called a pumpkin supreme, which has sweet potato, pumpkin, almond butter and chocolate in it. The other is from Thanksgiving where I would end up putting mashed sweet potato, on Turkey to add flavor. … Continue reading »
Fasting for feasts
One problem I read a lot about and have experienced is eating way too much food on a feast, such as Thanksgiving or Passover Seder. What helps me control how much I eat during these holidays is fasting or eating 2 meals a day. You want to start several days before the feast doing 2 … Continue reading »
Tim gains 30 pounds of muscles in short time on primal diet
This was done over a period of 3 to 4 months. I’m not sure how well the body likes gaining muscles mass that fast, but he hardly gained any fat in the process. Which is really unsual since when your normally do bulk in bodybuilding you gain quite a bit of fat too. This probably … Continue reading »
