      Well, yes and no…mine is locked inside Smart Sweets right here: http://www.kitchenstewardship.com/2011/11/16/its-here-30-healthy-desserts-recipes-in-smart-sweets/

      But I can tell you it’s based off my friend Donielle’s recipe: http://naturallyknockedup.com/

  3. Wow-you made me hungry with your food LOL! Katie, you’re so kind to give those recipes, thanks! I’ll definitely try them all – keep it up!

  4. I just discovered your website and LOVE it! I was wondering if you had ever tried making your own pasta? I’ve been playing catch up on your posts 🙂 and noticed there is one about quick meals. You can freeze the pasta ahead of time and just pull it out as you need it along with some sauce. I found this gluten free recipe here: http://glutenfreegirl.com/gluten-free-fresh-pasta/ (haven’t tried it yet though).

    1. Beka,
      Awesome, thanks! I have done pasta maybe once…without the right equipment, it’s pretty time intensive, and then we went mostly GF…so maybe this recipe will be a winner for us! (Welcome aboard, btw!!) 🙂 Katie

  7. Hi Katie, I love your granola/granola bars recipes. It is the first one I’ve used that everyone loves!!

    I do have a couple of questions though. I have quickly read all the comments and did not see my questions; hopefully you have not already addressed the following:

    1) I’m so curious about adding whole wheat/ spelt/buckwheat flour to have some phytase available to break down the phytic acid. I learned about soaking from Sally Fallon years ago but never read about this requirement to neutralize phytic acid. Where did you learn this?
    2) How did you come up with 1 Tbs of whey and 1 cup of water for soaking 3 cups of oats? Again, I’ve used Sally Fallon’s instructions and she always has 2 Tbs of whey per cup of oats. I’m just wondering if 1 Tbs of whey is enough to break down the phytic acid for 3 cups of oats.

    Believe me, I’m not challenging you, I just want to make sure that all this work I do actually accomplishes what I’m wanting it to.

    Thanks so much…love you site!!

    1. Debra,
      Thank YOU so much! I love hearing about recipe successes…

      First, everything I know about soaking grains is somewhere in the posts listed here: http://www.kitchenstewardship.com/seriescarnivals/soaking-grains-an-exploration/

      Second, the phytase question is probably answered here, I hope: http://www.kitchenstewardship.com/2010/03/11/food-for-thought-what-is-the-role-of-phytase-in-soaking-grains/

      Third, the rules for soaking are different in many places, including what Fallon has promoted. I got to interview her a few years ago and honestly wasn’t all that impressed by her sources, so I’ve done some of my own research and some throwing up of my hands in despair. When I tested with pH strips, it didn’t matter how much whey was in the water, really- the pH was the same (and that’s the role of the acid, to change the pH). Even if it did change, you would need to coordinate the amount of whey with the LIQUID involved, because it’s the liquid that will have the pH to knock out phytic acid. It’s not like whey is an army attacking the phytic acid and there has to be “enough”, you see. Does that make sense?

      Recently, Amanda Rose, who does much more thorough research than I do, has put forth the theory that one does not need ANY acidic medium to achieve phytate reduction, simply warm water. So what are we to do? In prayer, our best, and then we eat, enjoy, repeat. 😉

      Hope that helps! 🙂 Katie

  9. Wow! I was only looking for a granola recipe, but I seem to have stumbled upon a blessing that only Jesus could provide! He has blessed me so much and taken such.good care of me, that I just can’t help talking about it! Any way, I didn’t know you have to soak whole grain rice to cook rice. I just add double the water and simmer. Is that wrong?
    Thank you.

    1. Sonja,
      Welcome aboard! 😉 So glad granola led you here to KS…

      As for rice, you can totally cook it the way you do it; the soaking methods (for any whole grain) are simply one theory on releasing more nutrients in the grain and making it all more digestible. It takes planning ahead, but many think it’s worth it for your nutrition’s sake.

      🙂 Katie

  13. I’ve been making a lot of things from Nourishing Traditions and was curious about the soaking/fermenting grain info. I guess what I got from the emails/debates (and THANK YOU for taking the time and trouble to explore the subject outside of the NT/Weston Price sources!!!) is that sourdough is the first, best way to handle grains, and that the fiber and nutrient benefits of whole grains vs. their problematic qualities of digestibility and phytic acid means that perhaps organic white flour is a legitimate option. I’d always wondered why traditional rice eating cultures eat white rice, not brown and why noodles and pasta were from predominantly white flours. I don’t mind spending the time to make bread, etc. from scratch, but I don’t want to waste my time either. I’ll be interested to see how you use the information from these debates in your own kitchen. I do find that the soaked/fermented whole wheat bread is easier for me to digest than unsoaked/fermented. It is all a bit confusing, isn’t it??

    1. Sharon,
      It is SO confusing, I know.

      I try my best to soak all whole grains and make sourdough bread, crackers and pizza dough. I just can’t sourdough everything though; we get tired of it.

      I do use white pasta (and whole wheat, depending on my mood), although someday I’m going to try Nourished Kitchen’s sourdough noodles recipe. Someday. 😉 I’m such a big compromiser that you won’t find any hard lines here. I would choose soaked brown rice (via accelerated fermentation) over white rice, although I suppose if I hadn’t soaked any, I might go with white. I do like understanding that although white grain products are not “healthy” for me in any way, if I’m served something or just want some pizza to go, doggone it, that I’m not really hurting my family that much with the white stuff. I don’t really know how I feel about whole grain storebought bread! Wary, for now.

      Great questions! (Welcome aboard!)
      🙂 Katie

  16. I am very excited to see you have entered recipes. I love that you have put in different options, like the corn bread/muffin recipe: healthy, healthier, etc. Sometimes I am to lazy to soak my grains (or just can’t get my act together), it’s nice to have a recipe that includes both ways. Can’t wait to go grocery shopping and try some of your meals.

  17. I love this idea! Thanks, Katie! In a much lesser way, I have been looking for an easy way to share nutritious, quick weeknight meals that are tried and true with my family. I’ve tried a couple of online options, but haven’t found anything that works yet. I will definitely look at these recipes and try some right away. This website looks amazing, Katie. Wow!

  18. Praise God!!!! We are on board and due to food allergies in the home (vs. out of good common sense at first) we have been on this journey for the past 2 years! I cannot wait to learn, share and join in on your faithfilled mission of nourishing our families both in body, mind and soul!!!
