With the advent of the New Year, many of you are considering or already began a paleo diet versus just a gluten free diet. A paleo diet is gluten free as the paleo diet avoids all grains as well other food. It mimics the diet of cavemen, which was over 333 generations ago. The question I am asked most about the paleo diet is, “Are potatoes Paleo?” Continue reading “Are Potatoes Paleo?”

There’s nothing like using real butter in a chocolate cake; however, what do you to make a gluten free dairy free chocolate cake, rich? Enjoy Life allergen-friendly baking chocolate contains dairy free cocoa butter. I used that instead of butter and cocoa powder, along with some oil, to create this light, airy chocolate cake. The cake turned out incredibly light. I topped it with gluten free dairy free whipping cream, caramel sauce, and chopped dairy free chocolate. Yum! I hope you enjoy this recipe.

You may find it difficult to find gluten free dairy free candy melts as most contain dairy. In addition, it is hard to find gluten free dairy free white chocolate to coat cake pops or truffles. Wilton’s does make one that is gluten free, but not dairy-free. To learn more about Wilton gluten free products, see discussion here from 2011. However, the recipe below works well as a substitute. If you have corn allergies, consider using Lyle’s Golden Syrup or gluten-free brown rice syrup, such as Lundberg brand instead of corn syrup. They will just turn out a bit darker in color. Meanwhile, I hope you find this recipe useful. Continue reading “Gluten Free Dairy Free Candy Melts Substitute Recipe (Corn-Free Options)”
I have been craving this green goddess salad dressing recipe for about a month, and finally got around to creating it. When I looked at the ingredients for Kraft brand Gluten Free Goddess dressing I saw that it contained xanthan gum. Luckily for us gluten free dieters, we usually have this ingredient on hand; however, you don’t have to include if you prefer a gum-free salad dressing. You can just use less water as needed and add vinegar to taste at the end. The best part about this recipe is that t does not contain any blue and yellow food coloring. Instead, it calls for naturally green ingredients such as parsley and avocado. I hope you enjoy this recipe! Continue reading “Green Goddess Salad Dressing Recipe (Naturally Gluten Free)”
Italians make frittatas from vegetables and eggs on the stovetop or baked. Sometimes they even add cheese. I decided to turn a frittata into a roulade. This gluen free spinach roulade makes a beautiful presentation and tastes amazing. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Spinach and Herb Roulade”
Lefse is a soft flatbread, similar to a tortilla. This gluten free lefse recipe is no different. It is often made of potatoes, however you may use gluten-free potato buds (see link below for a gluten free brand). There are many different versions of lefse. The Norwegian version is made of flour, usually potato, cream, sometimes lard, and cooked on a griddle. Special tools are usually used to make lefse, even gluten free lefse. Most people use a griddle, a rolling pin cover, and a lefse stick to turn them over. However, if you get creative you can make them with other tools and pans (see Tips section below.) When using fresh potatoes, you need to use a ricer. However, this recipe calls for Potato Buds instead of fresh potatoes. I know not everyone owns a ricer. I will publish a recipe for lefse made with fresh potatoes another day. Meanwhile, enjoy this recipe!
For a similar recipe, not calling for boxed potatoes, see my Soft Gluten Free Naan (Indian Flat Bread). It has received many raved reviews.
