Stevia is her sweetener of choice, and molasses or honey are occasionally used to round out a recipe.
She includes spice blends, salad dressings, bread alternatives, main dishes and sweets, too.

It is a well-made book and I really love all the recipes I have tried. Thanks Melissa! The recipes are so delicious. I cook from it almost daily eating delicious food and losing weight. She is truly gifted and has been an inspiration. I bought your cook book and now realize it uses stevia. I am sensitive to that sweetener any suggestions for using a different sweetener?
I use one that measures cup for cup like sugar. Tammy, have you tried Kal stevia? Most brands of stevia contain fillers which is possibly what you are sensitive too. I Highly recommend it! Personally, I only use Kal Stevia and small amounts of coconut sugar and raw honey when needed. I hope this helps and that you enjoy the cookbook! Hi Melissa — I have a 6 month old who is just starting solid foods. That being said, I was wondering if you have any ideas on what to provide for babies in place of those grains.
Does your website have good ideas for food for babies? Thanks so much! That being said, my 6 month old has no interest in food right now. I will continue with these pretty bland and low allergy foods and also add carrtos, sweet potatoes, etc.
I presonally see grains and cereals as filler foods, just like with adults. People eat pasta, to extent the meat sauce, only eat bread to extend the amount of meat on the sandwich, etc.
Lots of people have an overgrowth of candida and avoiding yeast is best. The potato rolls do sound good! I will pick up Wheat Belly and give it a read. Thank you for sharing all the recipes!! It is so nice to find down to earth recipes, so often they are not for the everyday cook. Can you list the ingredients in foods that are supposed to be a warning?
I saw that Carrageenan is bad which I found out from your post on one of the desserts and I also know to watch out for High Fructose Corn syrup, Sugar, Wheat flour, Hydrogenated Oils, and Dextrose; but do you have any other warnings about other ingredients?
There are so many but you hit the main ones. I just received your book and am excited to try all your yummy recipes. I am going to use this to teach my daughter Home Economics we homeschool. Hope you enjoy the recipes Linda! I loved Home Ec. Hello Melissa, In the last 3 weeks I have been working to make myself and my family healthier by changing the way we eat.
I read the Wheat Belly book and realized I needed to do a full revamp of our eating habits. I had made some of the recipes from the Wheat Belly cook book and was not really impressed. After doing some Internet research I came across your blog and your Facebook page.
Oh how it has changed my thoughts on grain and sugar free eating. I have made the chicken pot pie, the pizza crust, the banana peanut butter muffins and the like red lobster biscuits. I also bought the ingredients to make the Pumpkin delight tomorrow. I am also going to try to use your chicken pot pie crust to make a spinach and feta quiche this week. Your recipes are simple and delicious, which is exactly what I need as a working mother whose husband is away with the Navy.
Thank you so much for helping my family eat healthier. Thanks from Canada, Rendell. Rendell, I am glad you jumped in and are enjoying the recipes! Simple is good for me most days as well. Thanks for your feedback! Melissa, Thank you so much for sharing your recipes. I have tried other peoples recipes and most were not worth repeating or eating for that matter.
I was so depressed and deflated, knowing what I was facing food wise. I have no idea how I found your website, although I totally think God led me to your site.
Because of your recipes, I CAN do this. Thank you! Donna, I am glad you are enjoying the recipes! Yes, having Southern Food with a grain-free twist is essential to me too! Please keep me posted on your success and let me know if I can help in any way! My family and I have been slowly re-vamping the way we eat for the past year after I read the daysofrealfood blog. For someone who has been working hard to lose weight and gain information it can be a frustrating thing to find so much conflicting information and not know what is best.
Lindsy, soory it has taken me so long to respond… your comment got lost! My first comment would be to read Wheat Belly. This will help you understand why grains should be avoided. About Stevia… I have been using it for 10 years. I use Kal which has no fillers.
I also use small amounts very small of raw honey and coconut sugar. If looking to lose weight, I would definitely restrict and limit the amounts of honey, maple syrup, etc. Do what you feel comfortable with and what words. Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving!! Joyce, I hope you enjoy the cheesecake! Just found your blog and find it very interesting! I do have one question though.
I have a given up sugars, most carbs, white anything rice, flours etc. I have tried Stevia and actually have an allergy to it. Come to find out it is related to Ragweed, so those who are allergic to ragweek should avoid Stevia as well. Do you have a suggestion for what kind of natural sweetener can be used other than Stevia? I am curious about your allergy to stevia. Did you have a reaction or was it diagnosed through a test? Most stevias contain fillers, which is possible is what you are allergic to.
Again, only speculation. I hope this helps! Melissa, How are you getting your fiber, if not grains. All of your fiber is coming from vegetables and fruit? Yes Debi, my fiber comes from veggies and fruit. Hi there! Love your blog and cant wait to try your recipes! Just wondering what you do with all the Holiday parties that you go to or going out to eat to keep on track? Thanks Susan!
I also stick to meats and veggies. No cake for me even though that used to me by favorite. When I go out to eat, grilled fish, shrimp, shake, fajitas no corn chips or tortillas. Keep scanning the site.. I am just beginning my second round of wheatfreeness. I went wheat free last year for three months and was very successful. I am getting motivated for my next adventure. I am also beginning to make several cooking changes of course, wheat free and researching many products.
I see that you recommend Pure Kal Stevia. I almost ordered some and then I started reading reviews and several people mentioned that they changed their formula and it was being processed in China. I was wanting to know your comments. About the Kal, others have mentioned about the formula being changed.
I am a little unsure of the reviews. I do however see that it is made in China… a little disheartening but for now, that is what I use. You are free to use whatever kind of stevia or sweetener you like, you will just need to add small amounts to the recipes and sweeten to taste.
Me again.. I noticed in your story that you went to Georgia Southern. I travel back to Georgia now every 2 to 3 weeks as my dad has dementia and Stage 4 cancer lymphomia. My best friend in Georgia is starting a lifestyle of Wheat Free too today.
