Many people are looking to improve their health by eliminating wheat, corn, and/or dairy from their diets. I have been experimenting with recipes that are free of wheat, corn, and dairy for several years. I've created "Ideal Ingredients" to share not only what I have learned, but also to share a delicious and healthy way of eating!

Special Note: If you are also avoiding eggs, you may substitute the following for 1 egg in my baked goods recipes.
1 egg = 1/3 cup applesauce OR 1/4 cup mashed banana OR 1 T ground flaxseed + 3 T water

Stovetop Hot Chocolate

In the mood for a sweet nightcap? Try this rich chocolatey drink in place of dessert tonight! You may use honey or stevia as a sweetener. (Side note: I don't care much for the taste of stevia so I use honey!)

Ingredients
2 cups coconut milk, unsweetened
2 T cocoa powder
2 T honey or 2 packets stevia
1/4 t ground cinnamon
1 t real vanilla extract

Directions
Heat milk in medium pan on high heat. Whisk in cocoa powder, stevia, and cinnamon. Reduce heat to simmer for 3-4 minutes, continuing to whisk. Remove from stove and stir in vanilla. Makes 2 servings.
