In preparation for Super Bowl Sunday, I began experimenting with chicken wings. Out of all of my Super Bowl Sunday Gluten Free Recipes, the most popular is my Bacon Wrapped Honey Chicken. This may beat that one, or at least tie it! These wings are first steamed in the oven and then baked to a crisp, while they remain tender and juicy inside.

I thought for a change, rather than traditional cream cheese icing, you may desire a different choice. You can never go wrong with more chocolate. This icing is not super sweet. So, feel free to add additional confectioners’ sugar, if you choose. Enjoy!

I made these last weekend and my husband and I thought we died and went to heaven. We don’t usually react this way unless something contains bacon, but these scalloped hash brown potato cups are truly to-die-for. The creamy potatoes with their seasoned and crisp bread crumb coating is incredible. Using frozen hash browns makes this recipe easy. I don’t think I’ll make my traditional gluten free scalloped potatoes recipe again. I’m looking forward to baking these ahead of time and then baking them again to rewarm for guests. This will make them extra crispy. Enjoy!
Note: I will be working on a dairy-free version soon. Stay tuned in! Continue reading “Easy Gluten Free Scalloped Potatoes Recipe in Crispy Cups”
The other day, I needed a fast, healthy, light lunch. I waited too long to eat lunch and didn’t want to ruin my dinner. My first thought was protein shakes, but I didn’t have my go to fruit, banana. Being out of them, I reached for some frozen blueberries instead. But how was I going to get full on those? Well, I found a fulfilling source of protein, oatmeal. Oats are the highest protein gluten free grain. I used a packet of Nature’s Path new Qi’a Hot Oatmeal in the Creamy Coconut flavor. The coconut flavor was overpowered by the blueberries, but it still tasted wonderful and was the perfect low-cal, healthy choice. The added grains, seeds and fiber makes it more flavorful and healthier. Plus I love anything that has a bunch of ingredients in one package. Meanwhile, you can use bananas, strawberries or your favorite fruit. Enjoy and stay healthy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Oatmeal Protein Shakes Recipes (Dairy Free)”
If you wish to impress your guests, flambe a dessert. Bananas Foster may be served flambe-style, though it is not necessary. If you’ve never had Bananas Foster, now is your chance. It is extremely delicious and easy to make. The caramel sauce is simply made with butter, brown sugar, and a couple of alcohols. Traditionally served over vanilla ice cream, enjoy this gluten free bananas foster over bread pudding, waffles, French toast, in crepes, and my favorite, wait for it…over cheesecake. You can also serve the caramelized bananas alone with just the sauce. To die for! If you do not light the alcohol or cook it off, you’ll feel as if you had a cocktail or two! – Just warning you.

Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator. While I do not advise it, I kept mine for as long as 2 years in the refrigerator and it was still delicious, though a little brown in color.
*Some makers of rum age it in barrels that were previously used to age whiskey. If you are extremely sensitive to gluten (cannot tolerate the allowed less than 20 parts per million), you should avoid such brands of rum. Check with each manufacturer.
I used overly ripe bananas and it still turned out very well. If your bananas are brown, the color of the liqueur may be a little darker/tanish yellow.
This gluten-free dairy-free mashed potatoes recipe is not only easy to make but is delicious; and is made completely allergen-free. They are made without dairy, casein, soy, nuts, or any of the eight major allergens. Instead of peeling the potatoes and cubing them, you boil them whole and the peel just slides off. The main thing is you don’t have to sacrifice on taste. If you are not allergic or intolerant to any of these ingredients, feel free to use butter and cow’s milk.

I hope you enjoy it and find it useful. You can fry chicken in it, add a bit to ice cream and other unsuspecting food. Continue reading “Gluten Free Hot Chili Oil Recipe”
