Who would have thought a barbecue type sauce would turn out so well with braised beef stew, but it did, with the help of a few gourmet ingredients. Braised meat brings so much more flavor to dishes.

This is a must try recipe. I hope you enjoy it. I’ll certainly be making this again soon. Continue reading “Braised Beef Stew in a barbecue beer and wine sauce”

Otherwise, the dark meat has more flavor, and is what is really needed in a soup. Without enough flavorful meat, salt is the main ingredient that brings the flavor to to any soup recipe. So, after Thanksgiving, kick back and wrap yourself in a nice warm blanket (weather permitting), and enjoy! Continue reading “Hearty Gluten Free Turkey Soup”

iMAGE: Quinoa Salad Vegetables

I’m not one big on quinoa salad, as I usually enjoy my food either cold or hot. And most of the gluten free quinoa salad recipes I’ve tried are not flavorful enough for me. I finally got this recipe right, though. The pineapple really makes this dish flavorful, so much that I didn’t even need a dressing.

In addition, if you replace the corn with other vegetables, you can makes this dish not only gluten free, but corn-free and grain-free. I hope you enjoy this recipe, as it brings a lot of color to the table. Continue reading “Colorful Gluten Free Quinoa Salad”
