Radishes w/ Sour Cream Dressing and Nigella Seeds

**found in Food And Wine Magazine September 2011 issue

Total: 15min-4 servings

1 1/2 tsp. nigella seeds
1 1/2 tsp yellow mustard seeds
1/2 cup gf sour cream
2 tsp of cider vinegar (recipe calls for sherry)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
Salt and freshly ground pepper
3 bunches assorted radishes, such as black, breakfast, daikon, icicle and watermelon
(about 30), thinly sliced

1.  In a small skillet, toast the nigella and mustard seeds over moderate heat until fragrant, about 1 minute.  Transfer the seeds to a plate to cool completely.
2.  In a small bowl, combine the sour cream with the vinegar and cumin and season with salt and pepper
3. Arrange the radishes on a large plate or platter.  Drizzle with the dressing.  Garnish with the toasted seeds and serve.

Variation: To turn this into radish slaw, cut the radishes into matchsticks (we like using a julienne peeler or a madoline to do this) and toss with the sour cream dressing and the toasted nigella and mustard seeds.

**Nigella seeds can be bought at a Middle-Eastern Market, Asian Market or Indian Market.

Enjoy!! xoxo Julie

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel-Caps ( which are different then Li

Hot Chocolate Coffee

Sometimes I feel like there are days only chocolate would understand.  And following a strict Paleo diet does not allot for chocolate eating.  Especially chocolate with added dried cane sugar.  And especially in abundance.  Of course special occasions allot for this type of activity, but today is not that day. So how do you put a sock in your chocolate craving?  Well, simply remove your sock from your foot and put it in your chocolate.  I'm kidding!  Please use a clean sock! Kidding again!!… Often, chocolate cravings can get the best of us, so I created a delicious recipe to kick my craving and your craving.  It's delicious.  And it's perfect for the lover of coffee and chocolate.  Taking a sip of this sent signals of pure decadence to my brain. A lot of my readers often describe how tough it is to drink black coffee without sweetener, so this one is for you guys!!   This recipe is a total Brain Trick.  It tastes sweet and chocolaty, so you think there is swee

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
