a couple of recipes that are NOT to be missed

Being this tired makes me want to eat all the things.

I baked this seed & nut "bread" before work today (soaked it overnight beforehand). It's delicious. I recommend it. Did I mention it also happens to be gluten free, for those of you who don't like the gluten?

OMG and this cake is so good. Beets and chickpeas, what? Eggless, flourless, vegan?

The chickpea cake does not have the delicacy of a flour cake, but it's damn good for gluten free. Now if only there were a way to eliminate that lingering flavour of taro I get from it...

Lingering flavour of taro? Really? Maybe you're a super-taster. Admittedly, when I made it I put shredded coconut in and it tasted like coconut and chocolate. I didn't get any taro. I think I'mma make it again with walnuts instead of coconut. Mmm.

Hey, maybe I am a supertaster: "the T2R38 genotype has been linked to a preference for sweetness in children, avoidance of alcohol ... and avoidance of cigarette smoking." Or maybe I just really don't like taro :)

That all sounds a lot like you.

Also, I LOVE taro. Hey, I want your advice on my most recent post (it's about credit cards), so go read it and tell me what you think?

Whoa, talk about synchronicity! I was just reading, on FB, a blog post from the Gluten-Free Girl about the link between depression and gluten sensitivity and I came to LJ to send it by private message to an old LJ friend who suffers from depression.
Then, since I was here anyway, I decided to peruse my friends page and this was the very first post on that page! Not sure why that kind of thing still surprises me, but it does.
Definitely going to check out these recipes. Thanks, Arwyn!

That bread looks amazing. I just want to toast it and butter it up all nice-like...mmm...
