Spring into Action! It’s Allergy Friendly Friday 4/12/13 and 4/19/13!
Happy Friday, Allergy-friendly Folks!
Hope everyone is enjoying these first weeks of spring. Has anyone found anything popping up in their produce section or farmer’s markets of note? Â I’m waiting eagerly for asparagus and strawberries.

Allergy Friendly Friday 3/29 and Cybele’s Free To Eat on the Today Show
Happy Holiday Friday! Â I’m in a cheerful mood today because I love spring, and I love Easter, because my kids adore their Easter Egg Hunt. Â I also secretly adore playing the role of my alter ego, the Easter Bunny. My kids figured it out years ago, but we still keep up the charade.
I’m also in a happy mood because my cookies, Cybele’s Free-to-Eat were featured this morning on the Today Show as the healthiest sweet!

Allergy Friendly Friday 8/24/12
Have you seen my new packaging for Cybele’s Free•to•Eat? We took the old one, and gave it a major face lift. I’m excited to say, after much delay, we will finally be shipping these cookies next month. About time! Please follow us on facebook at CybelesFreetoEat and twitter at CybelesFTE for updates on when and where the cookies will be available. I’m happy to report that NavanFoods will be our first retailer! They’ve got them up and ready for pre-order!
Thanks for the cooling recipes last week, folks. I made a Golden Cherry Tomato Gazpacho earlier this week that I’ll add to the site in the next few days. It’s vegan, allergy-friendly, and totally rocks. Yellow cherry tomatoes are literally bursting with golden flavor. Tangy and sweet, grab them while they’re in season, which is RIGHT NOW! Look for Sungold, or the Yellow Pear Cherry tomatoes, both are great.
Just to remind everyone, I’m doing a new thing with my top weekly picks from Allergy Friendly Friday. I’m sharing my weekly picks on Pinterst too. See here, where I’ve featured this week’s top picks on my new ALLERGY FRIENDLY FRIDAY HIGHLIGHTS pin board.
Here are a few choice recipe highlights from the last Allergy Friendly Friday:
- Mango Pineapple Carrot Smoothie from the Welcoming Kitchen
- Parsnip Carrot Crisps from the Fussiest Eater
- Hail Mary Lemon Tart Knock Off from Tessa the Domestic Diva
- Honey Mustard Chicken Salad from Not Missing A Thing! (more…)
