Are you ready for an awesome giveaway? KIND was very generous in sending me one of their celebrity KIND cubes. I received the Grace Potter Backstage Snack Pack (custom designed by Grace), and so can you in this giveaway! I love KIND fruit and nut bars! They are award winning, nutritious and oh so delicious! The best part about them is that they are gluten free, dairy-free, soy-free. Another great thing about the celebrity gift cubes is a percentage of profits go to the celebrity’s chosen cause. Grace Potter chose the Alzheimer’s Association, which was very supportive in helping with resources for my mother some years ago. Thank you KIND, Grace, and the Alzheimer’s Association! Good luck in this giveaway to all who enter. Meanwhile, read the short reviews below. Continue reading “KIND Bars Celebrity Pack Giveaway and Ingredients”

Gluten Free Beef Tenderloin

This Christmas we only had a small amount of guest, therefore, serving a fine cut of meat was  inexpensive. If you have a special dinner coming up soon, consider a beef tenderloin, which is the same cut as filet mignon. It is easy to cut, carve, and serve. Because it is so tender and juicy, no gravy is required, however, if you’re serving it with mashed potatoes you can make gravy, if desired. I rarely measure ingredients for gravy, but have provided you with the ingredients and instructions below. There is nothing specific you need, besides oil and seasonings. When making beef tenderloin, remember…keep it simple! You can’t go wrong! Continue reading “Gluten Free Beef Tenderloin”

Gluten Free Appetizers: Sausage and Cheese Bread Balls

You’ve heard of breadsticks that you dip into pizza sauce, right? Well, picture breadsticks shaped into balls with a little, or a lot of cheese and sausage inside, and it’s yeast-free. Heaven, right? And you can make them a little more guilt-free by using turkey sausage, as I did. They were so good, I skipped the sauce entirely. However, my father and husband thought they were too dry to eat alone. Let’s face it, it’s bread. It had a nice crunch on the outside crust which I loved! I can eat these gluten free appetizers any day! Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Appetizers: Sausage and Cheese Bread Balls”

I ran across Van’s Natural Foods on Twitter. I had no idea they made wheat and gluten free frozen breakfast products: waffles, pancakes, and French toast sticks. I was so pleased to find their products in my local grocery stores (Von’s/Safeway, Raley’s, and Whole Foods Market. Their wheat and gluten free products are also dairy-free and egg-free. While I wasn’t able to find all of their wheat and gluten free products (they make other products, as well), I did try a few, and they were fantastic! THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED.

Gluten Free Cocktails Flambe

Below I list several different versions of flambe gluten free cocktails. The meaning of flambe is to add alcohol and ignite. Though alcohol is distilled which means that any gluten content should be removed, some people who are more intolerable to gluten than others may have a reaction to some alcohol. Use alcohol that you feel safe consuming. Meanwhile, enjoy this dessert-like cocktail whether you serve it as a coffee or as a liqueur. It makes a nice presentation for special occasions. I’m thinking New Year’s Eve, whether it be just the two of you, or for a party. Continue reading “Gluten Free Cocktails Flambe”

Fruit Kebabs

Whether using fresh, frozen, or canned fruit, fruit kebabs are not only naturally gluten free, but make one of the easiest, yet healthiest appetizers. Using pineapple, strawberries, kewi, honeydew melon, green or red seedless grapes, green or red apples, and bananas are great for coordinating holiday colors, but use whatever you have available or enjoy. You may make dessert fruit kebabs by serving with a Chocolate Fondue Sauce. Enjoy these appetizers whether for New Year’s Eve or any other day! Continue reading “Fruit Kebabs”

A gluten free cheesecake recipe with a sweetened sour cream topping that you may top with any sauce you desire, from chocolate ganache to pie filling or even cranberry sauce during the holidays. Rather try and find gluten free graham crackers to make the crust, this recipe includes a one step graham cracker crust, similar to making a large graham cracker, but softer (extra butter). So yummy! What will you top yours with? Continue reading “Gluten Free Cheesecake with Sour Cream Topping”

This gluten free parfait is perfect for the holidays with its golden caramel color. Use your favorite gluten free brownie recipe or the one linked below. Because so many premade caramel sauces contain gluten, making the Dolche Leche (rich caramel sauce) is the perfect way to go for those on a gluten free diet. The baked apple slices compliment the ingredients perfectly, in color and flavor. The best part about this dessert is that most of the ingredients may be made in advanced. Enjoy, and happy holidays to all! Continue reading “Gluten Free Parfait: Brownie Caramel Apple”
