GNOWFGLINS™

Thank you for visiting GNOWFGLINS™ (gnowfglins.com)!

This site is administered by Jeff and Wardeh (”Wardee”) Harmon. We live in Oregon with our three awesome children — our eldest daughter, Haniya — 11; middle daughter, Naomi — 9; and youngest son, Mikah — 7-1/2. We live in the country and love it!

GNOWFGLINS™ was born over the course of many discussions about healthy foods. We desire to embrace our Creator’s perfect design by eating the good foods he made for us — namely, what we call God’s Natural, Organic, Whole Foods, Grown Locally, In Season.

Basically, we’ve covered most of the important points in these discussions: Eat Healthfully, But Not Just For Health and What Are GNOWFGLINS™? and Our Journey to GNOWFGLINS™.

We strive to cook with the freshest, most natural ingredients possible. In most cases, this means the raw ingredients we choose are organic, local, natural and/or raw. In the case of meat, we prefer consuming naturally-raised meats, such as grass-fed beef, grass-fed lamb, free-range and organic chickens, and wild salmon, etc.

However, in our recipes, we don’t make a note of these terms very often. We believe it makes for tedious reading to sort through ingredient lists where most items are prefaced by the term “organic”. In some cases, though, we do state a preference, as I usually do when I call for “grass-fed” beef.

When preparing the recipes, we encourage you to include the freshest, most natural ingredients you have available. We also encourage you to do research of your own, so you are satisfied with the health value of the raw ingredients you use in your kitchen. If you ever have questions, please feel free to write to us: info @ gnowfglins dot com.

Because of multiple food allergies among members of our family, our recipes don’t include any eggs or dairy products (with the exception of occasional goat milk). And now, due to our daughter’s recently discovered gluten allergy, the Recipe Directory features gluten-free recipes. The tried and true gluten-containing grain recipes are still there, too.

There is one other curious peculiarity about the recipes — not many call for garlic. Some members of our family are allergic to it. Garlic, being delicious in most foods, is a simple ingredient to add, should you desire it.
