Hi! I’m Alla, the creator, photographer, and the chief tester behind Minty Kitchen. I’m passionate about wholesome and healthy food and helping those with dietary restrictions and food allergies. My ultimate goal is to help my community Eat Good to Feel Good. I know first hand how challenging it is to live with food sensitivities and allergies. As a result, I design recipes that align with dietary needs and food allergies, share cooking tips and products I discovered that have helped me on my journey.

Never miss a recipe!

This reinvented Caesar Salad is anything but tradi This reinvented Caesar Salad is anything but traditional. Layered with nutrient-dense kale, roasted chickpea croutons, and tossed in a Caesar Dressing that is without anchovies or raw eggs. (Omit the parm & and you have a dairy-free & vegan dressing) Did I mention it's nut-free too! 
Spice it up and add avocado slices, or grilled shrimp, possibilities are endless.

So easy to customize. No need to go to the store to get ingredients, just use what you already have in your pantry and fridge.  Modify it for your taste buds or dietary needs. Use pre-cut veggies or pre-cooked rice. I promise, I won't judge! And....this Miso - Ginger Dressing is so good!  Sprinkle it on rice, salad, fish, chicken, you get the idea. 😉

I know I’m not special. There are times we all g I know I’m not special. There are times we all get discouraged, disappointed, lack confidence or courage.  But just like happiness we should rely on ourself to lift that spirit up. 

I like to keep a notepad of encouraging quotes i find that speak to me or that I write to my future self.  So when I have moments of being down, there is at least one that will lift me up. ✨

Try this really simple slow-roasted salmon recipe, where the oven does all the work and the fish comes out flaky and just the right doneness (slightly more than medium). Salmon pairs really well with citrus, and we're in luck because it' citrus season. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Recipe >
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Preheat oven to 275 F
2. Cut some citrus in thin circles. Lime, lemon, orange, blood orange, grapefruit all work great.
3. Pat dry fish and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Season generously with a citrus salt spice or just salt and pepper. Drizzle some olive oil. Use some discarded citrus ends to squeeze out the juice for extra flavor. Layout the circles of citrus, and sprinkle with fresh dill.
4. Roast for about 30-35 min (My piece was about an inch thickness)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Enjoy!

Just like many others, I stumbled into sourdough b Just like many others, I stumbled into sourdough baking during quarantine.  I love to cook, but I'm not a big baker. This was more out of necessity rather than desire. Mika, my oldest has a severe peanut allergy so she can't have a lot of the baked goods (including bread) from the store due to allergen contamination.  Food deliveries were hard to get as is, and you never knew what from your order would show up. Needless to say, reading food labels was almost impossible. So my solution was to try making bread myself.  Now, if you haven't tried making sourdough it is a tedious process, from building the starter to actually making the bread. It takes much patience and practice. I didn't love the process, but what I did LOVE was seeing the happy faces, waiting with anticipation to eat "Mama's Bread". The entire family became invested in Fred Jr - the name we gave our starter. (Jr. because I killed the first starter we had, and that's a story for another time 🙂 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sharing loaves with family and friends became a source of comfort. Now fast forward to today, we're out of quarantine, and I'm enjoying perfecting my new found skill and experimenting with it.  Aside from sharing the love thru food with your dear ones, There is something magical about making something from scratch and watching it come to life. Something empowering about knowing you can be self-sustainable. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm walking out of this with a new skill, lots of fond memories, new connections, and a tradition made with my peeps, and that's priceless.

Have you picked up a skill or hobby during this challenging time?  I'd love to hear.

Beef short ribs braised in a red wine + Dijon with carrots and potatoes.

When ready to serve, make some gremolata, which is simply chopped parsley, garlic and lemon zest and garnish for extra flavor.
