About Me

My name is Denise and I have an autoimmune condition of the thyroid called Hashimoto's Disease. This diagnosis brings a different set of challenges for each patient although most of us have to make major changes in our diet. Until recently, my diet was high in gluten, dairy, soy and corn. In fact, I didn't even know the names of 75% of the items in the fresh food isle! That's been the biggest obstacle on my quest to wellness. It is the reason I started this blog; to find and share recipes without those inflammatory ingredients. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! If you have a favorite recipe of your own to share, please drop me a note via email or through my facebook page. Thanks for checking out the blog -- I look forward to hearing from you!

Roasted Veggies & Sausage

Wow -- this meal was awesome!!! My husband always seems to take my bland recipes and turn them into something delicious :-)

 We started with the roasted veggie recipe from one of my Hashimoto's Facebook posts; we added a little garlic and onion to give it more flavor.  Aside from that, there is just a little spaghetti sauce and some sausage. You'll love it!!
Ingredients:
1 sweet potato, peeled and diced
3 carrot sticks, peeled and diced
1 yellow squash, sliced
1 ciabatta squash, sliced
1/4 yellow onion, diced
1 garlic clove, diced
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp McCormick's Grill Mate Montreal Steak Seasoning
1 link of Pederson's Uncured, Smoked Kielbasa, sliced
1 cup Dave's Gourmet Organic Roasted Garlic & Sweet Basil Pasta Sauce

 Note:  all of the ingredients are organic, gluten- and dairy-free.

 Place all of the veggies in a roasting dish; cover with extra virgin olive oil and McCormick's seasoning -- blend. Add the kielbasa and spaghetti sauce.  Cover.  Cook ~ 45 minutes at 350*.

 That's it -- simple, right?!! 

 "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me."  Revelation 3:20
