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!

Making Mint Extract and Chocolate Mint Ice Cream
We finished off a little glass bottle of almond extract a few months ago and looked at the tiny bottle critically, trying to decide if it would be useful to re-purpose it.
As it happened, we had a scant bit of silver rum left, too little for a set of drinks but too much for most recipes. Our chocolate mint plant was doing great, sending out lots of little shoots ecstatically seeking the sun.
Put everything together and you get homemade chocolate-mint extract!
We took a small jar, stuffed it about half-full with clean mint leaves, then

Strawberry-Rhubarb Crumble
I thought this came out beautifully. I used a combination of whole-grain flours and added cardamom, which boosted the flavor considerably. I love crumbles for their simplicity – toss fruit with sugar, top with a mixture of flour, oats and more sugar. However, to cut down on at least some of the sugar, I used one of the stevia-sugar products, Sun Crystals, to acquire the same sweetness without as many calories. Now if only there was such a thing for brown sugar!

(English) Pecan Pie
This one from Bakerella we can both agree on. It’s easy and doesn’t call for any expensive ingredients. (Actually, I probably made it more expensive because I don’t like using margarine.) The original recipe made 3 pies! If I had 3 pie dishes, I’d consider it because he goes through pies so fast. And, most importantly, this one got the highest reviews after the maple pecan. I loved the filling and he loved the end result.
I normally refer you to Food Network for Alton’s pie crust, but this time, I’m reprinting it below with how I make it.

(English) Five Minute Chocolate Cake
Sometimes you want a bit of chocolate cake and don’t want to take the time or the calories to make a full 9″ double- or triple-layer cake. I tend to be very prone to having fits of chocolate cravings so the other evening, I decided I really needed a chocolate fix. Nor did I feel like waiting the three hours for a cake at 10pm at night.
