Gluten Free Basil Cream Sauce

This basil cream sauce recipe is lower in fat than those made with whipping cream or evaporated milk. Yet it was so yummy on my ravioli. Basil cream sauce is naturally gluten free, however, if using a commercially grated cheese, you’ll need to ensure that is is gluten free. Make it dairy free by using milk and cheese substitutes. My husband is not a fan of cream sauces, but with the basil flavor, he even liked it on gluten free raviolis. Continue reading “Gluten Free Basil Cream Sauce”

Gluten Free Cornbread Stuffing Recipe with Sausage Option

Image: Gluten Free Cornbread Stuffing - Dressing

The only gluten free stuffing (some say dressing) that I care for is the kind that has been baked in a bird, whether a turkey or a chicken. However, this gluten free cornbread stuffing recipe is very good, after two attempts, and I didn’t even have it stuffed in a bird when testing it. Of course, a bird’s juices surely provides more flavor. This gluten free cornbread stuffing recipe has plenty of flavor on its own, and is perfect for those who do not care for sage, though it may be added. I’ve also added dairy-free and vegan/vegetarian options. Enjoy and have a wonderful, fun filled Thanksgiving. Among many other things, I give thanks for gluten free stuffing — and elastic waste pants! Continue reading “Gluten Free Cornbread Stuffing Recipe with Sausage Option”

Gluten Free Onion Gravy Recipe

I promised you all my gluten free onion gravy recipe, and here it is. Whether you leave in the onion pieces or puree until smooth, this is an easy, delicious gravy. You can make this sauce virtually any color you chose. If you wish a brown gravy, add a tiny bit of Kitchen Bouquet; use some milk for a white sauce, or leave its natural yellow color from the butter and oil. You may also use all oil instead of half butter and oil. Though butter adds flavor. This is a great onion gravy recipe without having to use any meat drippings. I used it over my Gluten Free Toad in the Hole recipe. Continue reading “Gluten Free Onion Gravy Recipe”

Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Recipe with Caramel Sauce and Nuts

I get a lot of requests for a gluten free chocolate cake recipe. And I had run across a recipe for caramel sauce which made me think of a cake recipe my sister used to make. It had a caramel-like sauce and walnuts placed beneath a chocolate cake batter in a bundt pan. Often some of the caramel and nuts would stick to the pan, but it was so so good! I wanted to convert this to a gluten free chocolate cake recipe, but she has lost the recipe. I’m sure she’ll find it one day but stored it away once the caramel sauce wasn’t turning out right. She thinks the corn syrup is made differently nowadays. Continue reading “Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Recipe with Caramel Sauce and Nuts”

Dairy Free Corn Free Gluten Free Caramel Sauce

To make this gluten free caramel sauce, it took me 4 tries. I created 2 different recipes with 2 different cooking methods, and finally, the last one was a charm! Two I had to toss, but the one that was too thick I ended up using anyway. It wasn’t that bad but on its way to candy! If you have allergies or other intolerances, this recipe should fit the bill! This gluten free caramel sauce will work well on ice cream or for cakes and pies. Enjoy! Continue reading “Dairy Free Corn Free Gluten Free Caramel Sauce”

Gluten Free Homemade Tortilla Chips

Homemade Gluten Free Tortilla Chips

There’s nothing quite like warm homemade gluten-free tortilla chips! Fresh out of the oven, they are fragrant and more flavorful. Though these chips have plenty of flavor and heat (kick), as they are basted with olive oil and chipotle sauce. If you use plain hot sauce you may wish to add a a little sweetener (honey, agave, stevia, etc.) to the marinade. They were a hit this afternoon in my house, along side a homemade hummus dip!  Continue reading “Gluten Free Homemade Tortilla Chips”

Gluten Free Hummus

mmuHummus is naturally gluten free, however, adding a wrong ingredient can send someone with a high gluten-intolerance into a world spin. This gluten free hummus is sweetened with pineapple juice and vinegar (due to my citrus allergies) rather than lemon juice, but feel free to use either. Hummus does not keep well. Therefore, ensure its refrigeration as soon as possible. I made some homemade gluten-free tortilla chips which was a wonderful compliment to this gluten-free hummus, as they were nice and spicy! Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Hummus”

Rice with Basil and Candied Ginger Recipe

I searched for a candied ginger recipe online, but found mostly recipes on how to make candied ginger. So, I created my own! We really enjoyed this. I served it with gluten free chicken sausages made by Full Circle. They contain no MSG or nitrates which is very hard to find in a sausage. They have many other advantages, as well. I’ll see if I can get them to sponsor a giveaway. Meanwhile this rice and candied ginger recipe was wonderful. It’s not hot on the tongue, just a kick in the back of your throat. Enjoy if you like spicy food! Continue reading “Rice with Basil and Candied Ginger Recipe”
