Gluten Free Chow Mein Recipe with Chicken
To make a great-tasting gluten free chow mein recipe you need the same ingredients as its gluten counterpart. It’s all in the quality of noodles you use. I use brown rice spaghetti; however, using spaghetti containing corn is more authentic. Heartland’s gluten free spaghetti is excellent. Quality brands of brown rice spaghetti include Tinkyada and Jovial. Add this recipe to your easy gluten free recipes as it cooks up fast. Enjoy!

Tips
*If you have hot chili oil, use 1/2 teaspoon of it to replace the sesame oil and omit the red pepper flakes. Chili oil is what I use, but not everyone can find it.
You can add any vegetables you desire: snow peas, yellow onion, green or red bell pepper, or even water chestnuts.

Vegan Pumpkin Ice Cream
This is more of a sherbet than a vegan pumpkin ice cream, but is still extremely delicious for a diary free version. Since its development, I have discovered that adding one teaspoon of xanthan gum added to ice cream creates a more chewy texture. In this recipe you would need to mix about 1/2 teaspoon of gum with the oil. Note, that this is not a new recipe, but the original, published in 2010, seems to have vanished from this site. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Pumpkin Creme Brulee
Most creme brulee recipes are naturally gluten-free, but when you add canned pumpkin puree, you have to be careful that the manufacturer has not added any gluten containing ingredients. I used evaporated cane sugar to caramelize my gluten free pumpkin creme brulee as the sugar granules are larger. Coarse sugar is the best sugar to use in this case. However, granulated sugar works okay, too. Before you know it, Thanksgiving will be upon us and I thought you may like to use this recipe for one of your desserts. It’s great because you can make it in advance and it is an recipe. Enjoy the fall season.
