Homemade Sweet Potato Chips (Naturally Gluten Free)

Image: Sweet Potato Chips

With summertime approaching, and our already warm weather, I am picturing backyard barbecues and picnics on the horizon. What better way to celebrate than with a healthier snack. Rather than reaching for processed potato chips, or expensive natural ones, you can make your own right at home. The great thing about homemade sweet potato chips is that they are lower in carbohydrates compared to regular chips. When making them at home you can use a healthier oil, as well. I use extra virgin olive oil to fry mine. What will you use? Continue reading “Homemade Sweet Potato Chips (Naturally Gluten Free)”

Fast Single Serve Yeast-Free Gluten-Free Bread Recipe (Dairy-Free)

Image: Gluten Free Microwaved Bread

While this gluten free bread recipe is not the ideal way to make bread, it sure comes in handy in a pinch, especially if you’re in a hurry. It goes well with a moist filling such as chicken salad, or even bacon or sausage since it made with a large amount of egg. Made in the microwave just in one and half minutes, this is an easy recipe you can through together and be out the door in no time. This gluten free yeast free bread recipe is high in protein due to the egg and if you use whole grain flour, it should be twice as healthy.

Creme Fraiche Substitute (Naturally Gluten Free)

Image: Homemade Creme Fraiche Substitute

Creme fraiche, pronounced “crem fresh,” meaning “fresh cream,” is a soured cream containing 30-45% butter fat. To provide you with a comparison, heavy whipping cream  contains at least 36% butterfat. It is predominently used in France, but is finally manufactured in the United States (U.S.). It is found in specialty stores, however, it is still very difficult to find in the U.S. I have seen a few recipes online for a creme fraiche substitute, but you have to wait overnight or several hours for it to sour using buttermilk or yogurt, but I do not feel good about leaving dairy out overnight.

This is a very old fashioned caramel fudge recipe that has been passed around a lot, but I have made it much easier to make. If you’ve ever made it and run into problems with the sugar clumping as in this example or worse completely hardening where you couldn’t even stir it anymore, then this recipe is for you. Who can’t resist a shortcut, especially if it will prevent the wasting of ingredients, and the time of having to start over? Continue reading “Easy Gluten Free Caramel Fudge Recipe (Corn-Free)”

Strawberry Rhubarb Dessert Soup (Naturally Gluten Free)

Decades ago, rhubarb was considered a vegetable. It actually is, but in 1947 it was reclassified as a fruit because that’s what people used it as. No matter the classification, rhubarb complements desserts well as its tartness balances out sweet flavors. This strawberry rhubarb dessert not only makes for a cooling summer treat, but a healthy one. Rhubarb contains Vitamin C, A and potassium. Potassium is a great way to fight the summer’s heat. It definitely adds a splash of color to the table and it’s fairly easy to make. I like it because it’s naturally gluten free. Enjoy!

Lower-Fat Gluten Free Coleslaw

Memorial Day is coming up soon, and classic dishes like coleslaw are often served. Whether you are having a barbecue, a picnic, or just eating in, this gluten free coleslaw recipe will fit the menu well. It is lower in fat than most coleslaw recipes as I use a bit of fat-free/non-fat Greek yogurt to substitute some of the mayonnaise. If you are on a dairy-free diet, feel free to use plain dairy-free yogurt. For others not needing a low-fat recipe, use all mayonnaise. Meanwhile, you may consider this recipe for Mother’s Day, as well. Continue reading “Lower-Fat Gluten Free Coleslaw”

If you like a little crunch and a nutty flavor in your gluten free whole grain bread, this recipe for toasted hemp seeds will be a perfect fit for you. It’s very easy to do and takes very little time. You can toast any seeds, but hemp seeds in particular need to be toasted, as they are hard seeds. Other seeds such as sesame seeds don’t need to be toasted. You can use toasted hemp seeds not only on the tops of your bread, but inside, as well. Now, get to baking some gluten free bread!

The different types of seeds to use in your gluten free bread include hemp, flax, poppy, sesame, sunflower, and pumpkin. Continue reading “Toasted Hemp Seeds Recipe for Bread and Salads”

In preparation for my upcoming butternut squash ravioli recipe I wanted to share my new roasted butternut squash recipe with you. Of course, once I create the ravioli recipe, I will link to this recipe. It is naturally gluten free, does not contain any allergens, and is very yummy! If plan on pureeing this for any reason, consider using a portion of butternut squash and and a portion of sweet potatoes. It makes it thicker and creamier without the use of cream or cheese.
