Substitution Guidelines
With the rise of allergies and alternative diets, it can be really challenging to find recipes that fit your needs.
Here are some tips to help you with recipes on my site.
* All of my recipes that call for any type of bread cubes or crumbs will work with gluten-free breads.
* Many of my salads call for sour cream and mayo - they originally called for all mayo. You can also use fake sour cream or vegan sour cream.
* Baking recipes that call for butter can use margarine, cooking recipes can use oil.
* Recipes marked with dairy-free, vegan or gluten-free can either have offending ingredients substituted or omitted.
* Usually milk and half-n-half can be substituted with soy, rice, coconut and other nut milks.
I hope this helps!

Mmm… Pancakes
Every so often, my husband makes too much kefir for the amount we drink each day. He makes about two quarts a day and every couple of weeks we have too much for our fridge. I’m always happy when this happens because it means we get to have fresh kefir cheese, and, when I can convince him to set the next day’s kefir aside for more cheese, it means pankūkas!
Gateway Cheese
It all started with ricotta.
A recipe would call for it, a sumptuous lasagna, perhaps, or possibly stuffed shells. Living on a tight budget in an expensive town meant no ricotta unless it was steeply discounted. (The day I found 99c ricotta on clearance was a very good day indeed.)
One day a couple of years ago, I wandered around the ‘Net, looking for something to do with a gallon of milk in my fridge that was woefully close to its expiration date.
