Remember Simon & Garfunkel’s hit song, “Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme”? Well, these wonderful seasonings can make your slow cooker rump roast a hit, as well. And it can easily be made gluten free. Continue reading “Gluten Free Slow Cooker Rump Roast”

Gluten Free Apple Bread Bake
As they say, there’s more than one way to skin a cat. Oh dear! That’s actually a horrible analogy, but what it means is that there is more than one way of doing something or achieving a goal. In this instant, the goal is to have gluten free apple bread. Well, rather than making homemade bread containing apples, here, I added bread cubes, apples, and other ingredients to form an apple bread bake. You can use homemade or store-bought gluten free bread. Just be sure to use one that is absorbent. Drizzle or drown it in additional pure maple syrup for a luscious brunch dessert.

Gluten Free Hummingbird Cake Recipe and Smooth Cream Cheese Frosting
Have you ever heard of a hummingbird cake before? Well, it’s making a comeback! It’s a very old classic that was “boss” (very cool, terrific) back in the day. In 1968, the Jamaican tourist board began sending out press releases to the United States including a couple of their local recipes, one of which was the Doctor Bird Cake, later changed to a number of different names in America including “the cake that doesn’t last” and “hummingbird cake” (The Doctor Bird was an actual bird much like the hummingbird.)

Gluten Free Cheese Dip
This gluten free cheese dip recipe is different than the typical cheese sauce you use for potatoes or broccoli. (That recipe, you can find here.) This new recipe is for dipping. I’m working on a new soft gluten free breadsticks recipe for my cookbook and decided to make a cheese sauce with which to test them out.
Months ago I ordered some sodium citrate which is the key to making easy cheese sauce without being concerned about it getting clumpy. After watching the member of The Chew (food TV show) make cheese sauce using sodium citrate, it served as a good reminder.
I tried their recipe; however, it was way too salty for my tastes. I’ve developed my own recipe that I think you’ll enjoy. Be sure to view the Tips section, as well.
Cheese dip is a perfect recipe for March Madness or other sports parties. This goes perfectly with my Soft Twisted Gluten-Free Breadsticks Recipe. (You don’t have to twist them.)
The easiest way to make gluten free cheese dip without the hassles. It turns out smooth and delicious.
Ingredients:
- 10 oz. cold gluten free beer (Redbridge*) (or water)
- 3/4 teaspoon (7 grams) sodium citrate
- 3-1/2 cups (9.1 oz.) Mild Cheddar Cheese (or Monterey Jack), shredded
- 1 cup (2.6 oz.) Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
- Gluten free hot sauce (optional)
- Gluten Free Pizza Sauce (optional)
Instructions:
- Add only 1 cup of beer to a non-stick saucepan. (You can add more later if you desire more of a sauce rather than a dip.)
- Toss both cheeses together; and set aside.
- Add the sodium citrate and stir until it dissolves. Cook over medium heat until the mixture is hot.
- Working in batches, add a handful of cheese at a time to the saucepan. Using a wooden spoon, stir after each addition until the cheese melts and the mixture is smooth. Serve immediately.
- If desired, thin with additional beer and/or add some hot sauce, to taste. If serving this sauce with soft gluten free breadsticks, consider adding some pizza sauce.
Tips
*Redbridge beer contains corn syrup. Therefore, avoid it if allergic to corn.

I’ve been planning to make this recipe with granulated sugar, but I got to thinking. I wondered if NuStevia Cocoa Syrup would make a good sugar-free version. It couldn’t have turned out better! In the tips section, I have added suggestions if you wish to make it with granulated sugar. No matter how you make it, I hope you enjoy it. It’s not bitter like so many other stevia sweetened recipes. Trying it in this chocolate gluten free sugar free zucchini bread was just smart, if I do say so myself.
