Recipes
Welcome to the Red & Honey recipe page!
In our home, we eat real, whole foods, like butter, grass-fed meats, and veggies (organic whenever possible). Our son is currently eating gluten-free, and the rest of do as well probably 90% of the time.
We were on the GAPS Diet as a family for 3-4 months in the winter of 2011. All of my posts chronicling our journey on the GAPS Diet can be found HERE. I also documented our GAPS journey through photographs. My flickr photos can be seen HERE. These are all my own recipes. They use nourishing and real ingredients, and they are the best of the best from my kitchen! Bon Appetit!
