Being mom to a child with several food sensitivities identifies me with a new world, one of caution and education. I never knew reading labels and ingredients could become second nature, who knew that artificial colors and additives could create time bombs, that wheat and dairy could turn a child into a tantrum whirlwind...learn about our journey into the new world of food sensitivities and what they mean. THIS WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING!

Recipe: Summer Slaw
- One small head of raw cauliflower (pulsed in the blender so it is smaller than diced)
- Quarter head of red cabbage, chopped
- 1 cup of hardy greens, I chose collard greens, chopped
- 1/2 cup pine nuts
- 1/2 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
- 1/2 c olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper powder
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped (optional)
- 3/4 cup orange slices
Blend together pine nuts, orange juice, olive oil, salt and cayenne pepper until smooth, add the mint last and briefly pulse. Pour over the chopped ingredients and mix. If you like your slaws a little on the sweeter side, add a touch of xylitol, coconut nectar or honey.
