Gluten Free Porcupine Meatballs Without Tomatoes

Gluten-free Porcupines

My mother-in-law used to make porcupine meatballs in a red sauce. All her kids miss it so much, especially my husband. Because of my tomato allergies I decided to see if a similar recipe would work with a brown gravy. This is naturally gluten free, but you need to be careful to use gluten-free ingredients in the sauce, which I explain below. Mom used to use instant white rice, many people use uncooked long grain white rice. I used cooked brown rice, as I had some left over already in the frig. Brown gravy just does not have any flavor unless you make it from some sort of meat base or fat. I didn’t have any meat fat on hand and decided to spice up the roux (flour and butter mixture) with a little sauteed onion. It worked pretty good! Blending it in the food processor made a flavorful, creamy brown gravy. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Porcupine Meatballs Without Tomatoes”

Gluten Free Cheese Sauce

Broccoli Potato with Gluten Free Cheese Sauce

Many months ago I posted a recipe for broccoli stuffed potato with cheese sauce, but the file became corrupted and it disappeared! Someone asked me to republish it. The most important part of the recipe is the gluten free cheese sauce which you can use to make macaroni and cheese or add atop a baked potato, broccoli or cauliflower. It is also the base for cheese soup. You can add pieces of cooked broccoli to the top of a baked potato and pour on the cheese sauce. I changed the recipe a bit, as I have experimented with a few different versions now. I hope you enjoy this one! It’s a great way to get kids to eat their veggies!

Quick Gluten Free Phyllo Dough – Gluten Free Filo Dough

This gluten free phyllo dough recipe (or gluten free filo dough) is so easy to make compared to traditional recipes! Fortunately, for those of us on a gluten-free diet, we finally have an advantage in baking without gluten. Gluten is not our friend in attempting to create a flaky crust. Flakiness is what is needed in phyllo dough. This is my first attempt at creating a gluten free phyllo dough recipe. I began with my tart crust recipe and made it more flaky and crispy. Phyllo dough can be used with sweet or savory fillings, such as pastries, croissants, meats or cheese fillings and more. Yum, right? For a filling I used gluten-free custard which I use in my gluten-free cream puffs and for crème brûlée. What will you use for a filling? The crust turned out flakier than any crust I have ever made! I was so pleased. All those interviews with all of those gluten-free experts and chefs really really paid off. One of my Facebook fans stated that this pastry dough turns out an amazing pie crust. Enjoy and be creative! Continue reading “Quick Gluten Free Phyllo Dough – Gluten Free Filo Dough”

Mashed Gluten Free Sweet Potato Recipe

This gluten free sweet potato recipe was made from an error. My husband went grocery shopping. Big mistake! Huge! I asked him to pick up some sweet potatoes for my mashed sweet potato recipe and neglected to tell him I wanted the red ones. He came back with yellow sweet potatoes, a cross between a regular potato and red sweet potatoes or yams. The yellow ones are not as sweet and I could not use them in the recipe I had in mind. I had to find a use for them. Oh well, yet another challenge for a new recipe, gluten-free, of course! Continue reading “Mashed Gluten Free Sweet Potato Recipe”
