WISHING ALL THOSE WHO CELEBRATE A HAPPY AND HEALTHY DIWALI! I hope you are able to make at least one homemade Diwali sweet and share it with your friends and family! I made 6 different sweet and savory ones - Besan ( chickpea flour ) ladoos, cashew fig rolls, murrukku, chivda and coconut ladoos! My friends and I do a Diwali homemade sweets swap. I feel so happy that even living in the US we are able to uphold our traditions! And I am so thankful to God that I am well enough to make these. Much love ❤️ Indira #aip #aipreintro #diwali #homemadediwalisweets #healthydiwali #rheumatoidarthritis #rheumatoidarthritiswarrior #autoimmunedisease #aipdiet

Diwali Sweets making continues! I love this time of the year. The two years when I was in a lot of pain with RA, I was not able to make these sweets. But soon after feeling better, I got back into making them! Every year I also try to make gluten free, dairy free and refined free versions of a lot of the traditional sweets that I grew up with! Making these sweets reminds me of my mom do much! Love you amma! I know you are watching from heaven and smiling. I wonder if you will approve of these Besan ladoos made with honey instead of sugar! These are made with ghee however if you cannot tolerate ghee, you can use coconut oil or palm shortening. #besanladoos #refinedsugarfree #healthyindian #sugarfreediwalisweets #diwalisweets #diwali2023 #cook2nourish #healthyindianrecipes #dairyfree #ladoos

Diwali is just around the corner! Have you started your preparations yet? I love this time of the year for the festivities and the sweets! When I started the AIP diet, I missed my sweets.

EASY HOMEMADE HEALTHY BARS THAT TASTE LIKE CANDY! I had been wanting to try the trending date bars for a while! Finally made them with my changes ( ahem…enhancements😊 - used dried apricots instead of dates and made my own dairyfree chocolate to control the amount of sugar). You can totally make these AIP by using carob instead of cacao and using only tigernut butter and tigernut granola or shredded coconut. I have added AIP reintros that I can tolerate like sunbutter and walnuts! So yum and wholesome and a perfect late afternoon snack! I want to highlight tigernut butter in this recipe by @tigernutbutters that is simply delicious! Their tigernut granola is also amazing ! #healthybars #healthysnack #apricotbars #chocolatebars #healthycandybars #homemadeisbest #homemadebars #cook2nourish #aip #nutfree #dairyfree #refinedsugarfree

I mix this with some cooked cauliflower rice just so I can cut down on the rice. https://cook2nourish.com/2023/09/instant-pot-mediterranean-chicken-and-rice-nightshade-free.html #instantpotrecipes #mediterraneanchickenandrice #easymeals #onepotmeals #ricerecipes #cook2nourish #glutenfree #nutfree #dairyfree #healthyrecipes #nightshadefree
