Hi Y'all,

Does anybody know a good site for organic recipes? I have been searching for

at least two hrs.! Maybe " organic " isn't the word I should be using? I mean

one that doesn't use " all purpose flour " , white sugar, etc. but healthy flours,

organic sugars, etc.

Not sure what you mean about an " organic " recipe.

You can cook most any recipe using organic ingredients.

I would suggest my favorite recipe book and dietary

guide, " Nourishing Traditions " by Sally Fallon.

That's part of the problem, I don't know if they would be called organic. LOL

I mean using ingredients other than what I mentioned in my post. Plus, using

coconut oil and other good things like that.

I had considered getting that book, but something made me change my mind

(don't remember what) and my library doesn't carry it. Does it have baking in

it, too, say bran muffins?

I am very interested in getting a good muffin recipe (w/o all the refined

ingredients) since I have IBD and my ND recommended eating muffins. He gave me

a recipe, but the way he talked about it it didn't sound promising in turning

out real well. :oP

Jan, what you are talking about is replacing white, refined, highly

processed, empty of nutritional value ingredients and dead food with whole

grain ingredients and more healthy alternatives. This is not necessarily

organic. You can replace all white pasta with whole wheat pasta. You can

replace white rice with brown rice. You can replace white refined flour

with unbleached white flour or whole wheat pastry flour or any number of

other more healthy flours. You can replace white refined sugar with raw

sugar. You can replace white breads with whole wheat breads. You can

replace cornbread " mix " with stone ground corn meal. You can replace white

eggs with brown eggs. You can replace pasteurized milk with raw milk. You

can replace canned fruits and vegetables with fresh or frozen. You can

replace margarine and all butter " substitutes " which are only one molecule

away from being plastic with real butter. You can replace white vinegar

with Apple Cider Vinegar. You can replace high sodium content soy sauce

with Braggs Amino Acid. You can replace iodized table salt with sea salt.

Anything you can replace with something less processed is going to be an

improvement and the more close it is to it's naturally grown state, the

better it is for you.

Precaution: read the ingredient labels. If " whole wheat " is not mentioned

as the first, if not second ingredient, then you are not really making a

health substitute. And the whole wheat should be REAL whole wheat, not a

whole wheat blend of something or other. Stone ground whole wheat is even

better. Also, look for foods that say they are not genetically modified.

There isn't any one recipe book. It's a lifestyle. Do some research online

about white, refined products and processed foods, food additives,

preservatives and such. You will be shocked at what is in our main food

chain that is purely junk and offers nothing more than empty calories.

Jan -- In addition to the " Nourishing Traditions " book Patty recommended

(which BTW has fermented foods recipes, including KT -- but made a bit

differently), you might try any of the Sue Gregg Eating Better Cookbooks

series. There are recipes galore which you may or may not like, but

they are a great starting place and even more importantly, her books

explain everything about why to change over and how to do it. And the

history of different foods. I particularly like her " Breakfasts ...

with Blender Batter Baking Allergy Alternatives/Whole Grain Versatility "

cookbook. If you would like more info or how to order (probably a

google search can tell you the same, but I might be able to save you

some time), email me. Blessings on your day -- Lois

Thanks, April and Lois,

I know all those foods aren't good for us, over-processed, etc. That

is why I wanted to find recipes using healthier products. I guess I

can exchange most ingredients equally with the exception of natural

sweeteners (and maybe the oils, such a coconut oil). Still, I'd much

rather find recipes.

Thanks, they sound delicious! I never saw organic brown sugar, though. I do

have to go to health food store tomorrow and will ask. Sounds like a lot of

carrots, etc, so wondering how many this makes?

Organic sugar can come in various forms. Some is called tubinado or raw

sugar. There is such a thing as organic brown sugar, but I always subbed

just regular raw sugar and never had any problems.

Those muffins do sound good. I may have to make a batch myself.

I, too, HIGHLY recommend " Nourishing Traditions " because it is so

much more than a cookbook. It is an education in nutrition. I have

2 copies just so I can always lend one out.

here is a site I've used some

It's title says Learn how to cook the way grandma did

http://www.rejoiceinlife.com/recipes/

Here is another site - I haven't used it much but I have it bookmarked

and it looks like it has some healthy recipes

http://www.rwood.com/index.htm

When I get an idea of something healthy I want to make - at one point

it was sourdough bread the old fashioned way - that's how I did my

searches and got these web sites.

Thanks to all. I do have turbinado and organic sugar from the HH. I am going

to go ahead and get Nourishing Traditions. I did do a search and didn't find

anything. A couple sites that did look good were no longer available. Thank

you so much for the links.
