Tis' the season... "Paleo" APPLE CRANBERRY PIE!!!

This pie is gluten and grain-free, dairy-free, and sugar-free, but boy is it TASTY!!

We make a coconut crust by hand, and fill it with sliced apples, stevia, coconut oil, and our favorite fall spices.

Then, we top it with our grain-free and sugar-free granola.

YUMMMMMM!!!!!!

We serve it by the slice, or please feel free to order one for your holiday gathering or just because :)

What is a POKEY PEOPLE DINNER??

We are going to be launching a new idea... the "Pokey People Dinner". This is our version of a support group. We will provide an environment in which you can confidently eat food that is gluten-free, and in line with your dietary restrictions.

Whether this way of eating is new for you, or if you've been doing it for years, the Poke People Dinner is an opportunity to share recipes, tips, stories, recommendation, and anything else you like with like-minded people. We will try to make as many versions of the meal available to you, so that you may customize it according to your specific needs.

The best part - beside the delicious food, of course - is that unlike many restaurants, you don't have to worry about if there will be something on the menu you can eat, whether your requests will make it to the kitchen, or the dreaded eye roll!

Please feel free to bring family and friends. These dinners are a great opportunity to introduce them to the way you eat, and show them that, yes, you CAN eat plenty of delicious foods.

TRY IT OUT FIRST...
This Saturday, Oct. 13th (12:00-3:00), we will be demonstrating the kind of meal you will find at these dinners.
On the menu...

Pulled Pork Sandwiches!!!
- Pork from Fox Valley Berkshire Farm
- Rosemary and Thyme Focaccia (gluten-free)
- Cranberry Horseradish Sauerkraut topping
