Using chicken thighs, legs, or breasts, its combination of spices is something you will surely enjoy.

Make it your own! I provide several suggestions. Continue reading “Stovetop Chicken Tagine (With Lemon and Tomato Substitute Options)”

Gluten Free Sea Salt Caramel Gelato Recipe (Ice Cream)

Copycat Sea Salt Caramel Gelato (Gluten Free)

I recently purchased a pint of Talenti Sea Salt Caramel Gelato. However, it turned out to NOT be gluten free. It is one of the few flavors that may contain wheat. I was so sad because it is truly an amazing flavor! They made it even better by adding a few miniature chocolate-covered caramel truffles. Oh my goodness! My husband and I fell in love with it! I just had to create a gluten free salted caramel gelato recipe for everyone without the gluten, corn, and soy. I also use organic ingredients in mine. Do whatever you can afford. Also, feel free to add gluten free chocolate chips, or caramel truffles if you have some on hand. Continue reading “Gluten Free Sea Salt Caramel Gelato Recipe (Ice Cream)”

Gluten Free Oven Roasted Parmesan Breaded Cauliflower

Oven Breaded Parmesan Cauliflower

You may have seen my Low-Carb Gluten Free Roasted Breaded Cauliflower Recipe. In this new recipe, I thought, “Be damned a little more carbs! Using cauliflower in a side dish is low in carbs already!” I boosted the protein a little and instead of using Kraft canister Parmesan, I used fresh Parmigiano Reggiano. Oh my! What a difference these two changes made! It’s addictive!

Italian Stuffed Chicken in Balsamic Garlic Reduction

Gluten Free Stuffed Italian Chicken

This baked chicken is similar to stuffed caprese chicken without the tomatoes. Instead, I use sauteed bell pepper and onion, which gives it an amazing and slightly sweet flavor. You can stuff the chicken with mozzarella and peppers as I did or anything you enjoy from sautéed vegetables to cheese with or without ham, prosciutto, or bacon. I didn’t use any meat in the stuffing and my husband went wild over this dish!
