Gluten Free Coleslaw Like KFC’s

Gluten Free Coleslaw - KFC Clone

For years I used to crave KFC’s coleslaw. Now that us gluten free eaters can no longer eat at KFC, I thought you would appreciate my KFC clone dressing. McCormick spices are gluten-free. Be sure to avoid using mayonnaise jars that gluten-eaters may have used if you are gluten intolerant. Double dipping knives in jars can leave cross-contamination. They dip in the mayo jar, spread it on their bread, and then dip in the jar again. Meanwhile, enjoy this gluten free coleslaw recipe. My guests thoroughly enjoyed it on the 4th of July and asked to take the leftover home. Continue reading “Gluten Free Coleslaw Like KFC’s”

Gluten Free Panzanella Salad

Gluten Free Panzanella Salad

This is one classic Italian dish that I did not grow up with, but absolutely love. You may mistake this gluten free panzanella salad for a traditional salad, but it is heartier than that. Rather than topping each salad with a few croutons, a panzanella consists of many croutons tossed within the salad. In addition, they typically do not contain lettuce.

However, when I’m in a hurry, I throw this one together for guests. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Panzanella Salad”
