Weird MedicineThere is nothing particularly special about this meatball recipe; I post it here mostly because we tried an experiment this weekend to see if my kids could tell the difference between these and “regular” meatballs, and the results were interesting. I tossed together this recipe from memory, simply substituting Beyond Beef bulk burger (comes in […]
A recent study published in Circulation got headlines recently, screaming “HIGH PROTEIN DIETS ARE LINKED TO HEIGHTENED RISK FOR HEART DISEASE..” This prompted a lot of questions to the show about ketogenic diets and whether they were “dangerous” and should be abandoned. As usual, the hype isn’t warranted; even the original study states clearly “In […]

No Grain Lasagna [Note: this s#!$ is GOOD. Also, you can use the cauliflower cheese bread recipe instead of squash for the “noodles.” Just leave out the final cheese topping and cool the “bread” overnight in the refrigerator. Cut into lasagna layers at the time of assembly.] SAUCE 4 TBSP olive oil 1/2 lb […]
I’m going to create a new category of NSNG recipes as I find and test them. I tried this one SuperBowl Sunday and even my kids thought it was pretty good. It ends up with a soft, bread-y interior, with a crisp outside crust (made of cheese). Dip it in marinara or eat it […]
