Got recipes? It can be so difficult to cook without white flour, white sugar or artificial ingredients and for some people who have to cook vegan, it can be VERY challenging to cook without the stuff that most people are used to. Some of us, however, are used to it.
What are some alternative ingredients that we can use in certain recipes to make food that is healthy and delicious?
If you have any recipes please share in the Wellness Cafe forum. I admit that main courses are not difficult for me, but I’m not great at baking. I used to be and if I can remember any good healthy recipes I will certainly post them. Thanks!
