Gluten Free Chicken Alfredo

Image: Gluten Free Chicken Alfredo

Though I already have a similar recipe for Gluten Free Chicken Alfredo, this one is a bit different. It is egg-free, and thickened with a tiny bit of starch. I also cut the chicken in the traditional bite size pieces, versus serving a chicken fillet on top of the creamy pasta. Though this dish is traditionally served with fettuccine noodles (see my Gluten Free Egg Noodles recipe), you may use your favorite gluten free pasta. I like to use penne pasta as an alternative. This is an easy recipe, and it tastes so good! I’d gladly pay to eat this at a restaurant. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Chicken Alfredo”

I hope you find this series helpful.  This is part 3. See the first post, New Gluten Free Products 2013, and the second, New Gluten Free Products 2013 Part 2!

Gluten Free Flourless Chocolate Cake Kosher for Passover

Image: Flourless Chocolate Cake for Passover

While I am still working on my gluten free matzo balls recipe, I thought I would share this wonderful gluten free flourless chocolate cake recipe with you all, but especially my Jewish readers. During Passover, it customary not to bake with certain grains. Some refrain from consuming grains altogether. Another custom is once matzo meal touches water it must be cooked within 18 minutes. In addition, yeast is avoided, and some avoid all leavening ingredients such as baking powder and/or baking soda. Despite my lack of knowledge for baking for Passover, I believe that this recipe pleases all. Happy flourless, leaven-free baking to you. I hope you all enjoy it whether you’re Jewish or not.

Gluten Free Chicken Noodle Soup

Though gluten free chicken noodle soup may be made with your favorite ready-made pasta, I chose to use my new homemade gluten free egg noodles (tastes more like pasta) in this recipe. Whether you’re down for the count due to a winter cold, or you just wish to warm up a bit, this soup has a ample flavor, and you’ll love the texture of the noodles. There are a couple of things that prompted this recipe creation. The texture of the noodles reminds me of Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup, which caused my cravings. The second thing, was that I need a gluten free chicken soup recipe to link to in my upcoming gluten free matzo ball soup recipe. Soup is great just about any time: winter, spring and fall. I hope you enjoy it! Continue reading “Gluten Free Chicken Noodle Soup”

Irish Coffee (Naturally Gluten Free)

In honor of St. Patrick’s Day and our partly Irish heritage, I hope you enjoy this gluten free Irish coffee recipe. Though Irish coffee is traditionally served with Irish whiskey, per the 2014 interim labeling rules, alcohol made from gluten grains should not be labeled gluten free. You can use sorghum whiskey, but vodka will do in a pinch. In addition, traditional Irish coffee is topped with either cream on or softened whipped cream. I chose stiff whipped cream, instead, as I believe it makes for a nicer presentation. Happy St. Patty’s Day to you all! (clink!) Continue reading “Irish Coffee (Naturally Gluten Free)”

Gluten Free Crepes (Sweet or Savory)

Though I already have a Gluten Free Crepes Recipe, it is flourless and high protein. Today, after a Facebook fan requested a gluten free crepe recipe, I began to crave them myself. I wanted a traditional flour crepe; therefore, I used my gluten free all-purpose flour blend recipe. Though I suggest using a blender to make crepes, they can be made by whisking by hand. The use of a blender provides a smooth batter, so they will turn out perfectly.

In case you have never made crepes, I provide the instructions on how to swirl them in the pan, for a perfect crepe. Just note that sometimes your first crepe doesn’t turn out perfectly, just as in making pancakes. It allows you to adjust the temperature of the pan. Perhaps the first one will provide you a little snack to keep you satisfied until the others are done. Enjoy!

Hope on the Horizon for Celiac Disease

We know that celiac disease is not the ‘rare’ disorder that I was taught it was at school. We know that at 1% incidence, it is the most common life-long disorder in the US and Europe. And we know, as of recent research, that the 1% incidence actually increases to 4 and 5% as the population ages. Therefore, we have a fairly common disorder on our hands that is poorly diagnosed.

As part two of my New Gluten Free Products 2013 Series, I present several new products that I ran across while at the Natural Products Expo West trade show last week/weekend. Most are brand new; some already on shelves; and perhaps one or two that are not new, but definitely worth mentioning. Stay tuned for more new gluten free products in the coming days.

Gluten Free Graham Cracker Crust with Flax

Instead of relying on commercially made graham crackers, you can whip up this gluten free graham cracker crust all in one step. Adding flax seed meal not only provides additional fiber and nutrition, but it makes this crust moist. The nutritional value is tri-fold: fiber, the same healing ingredient found in aloe vera, and omega 3s. Brown flax seeds are higher than the golden variety, but it’s all up to you which one you use. Perhaps you’ll find your favorite indulgence a little more guilt-free. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Graham Cracker Crust with Flax”
