Slightly Indulgent Tuesday; 8/16/11

Posted on August 16, 2011

It’s Slightly Indulgent Tuesday again where the blogosphere’s best healthy cooks gather to share recipes.

NOTE: I’ve been Stumbling your posts as I go through them (the ones that have the correct SIT link in place!) in hopes to create more traffic for your sites. If you’re not on StumbleUpon, you can get a free account here and do the same for this post and any other SIT post you love. More traffic is good for everyone!

Healthier Highlights

I’m a sucker for white beans and sage so I had to share this…

Zucchini & White Beans with Sage from Wheat Free Meat Free

I love to water bath can but haven’t yet braved the pressure cooking canning. Learn how here:

Black Bean & Corn Salsa: Pressure Canning from Creating Nirvana

A couple of interesting refined sugar-free soda alternatives:

Way Better Than Soda from Allergy-Free Vintage Cookery
Sugarless Italian Soda from The Primal Home

Stop by Hannah Keeley’s site – she and I chatted on the phone all about eating SS&GF. Hear what I had to say!

Linking Up Guidelines: PLEASE READ!

Please link back to this post NOT A STATIC “BLOG PARTY PAGE” so that your readers can find the recipes here.
Link to your individual post, NOT your home page.
Recipes DO NOT have to be sugar-free or gluten-free – just healthier in some way. The idea is to share our ideas and inspire each other in the kitchen.
Please don’t link give-aways and book reviews without recipes or contests – the intent of this event is to compile recipes that give people options.
(Optional) When you link, please tell us who you are and what you’re cooking. For example, I might enter: Overnight Buckwheat Pancakes (Amy @ Simply Sugar & Gluten Free)

@Amy, Thanks for the follow. Actually, I have never had a fish taco either but I thought it sounded better than just calling the recipe Fish Salad. LOL

Thanks SO MUCH for the Stumble … I couldn’t believe it when I saw the spike in traffic My Stumble name is VintageMom22.

For my recipe today, I’ve shared a gluten-free cookie that is *almost* right, but could use a little help. Looking forward to reading comments and suggestions!

Since it’s peach season here, I’ve linked an old favorite of mine — Peach Pie. This one is made with cornstarch or arrowroot for the thickener so it’s gluten-free.
