Hearty Gluten Free Chicken Stew

Gluten Free Chicken Stew

For a super-flavorful gluten free chicken stew, make this recipe. It has all of the flavor of mushrooms without the actual mushrooms. However, you can use fresh mushrooms if you wish. Some people dislike the texture of mushrooms. Meanwhile, you’ll absolutely love this chicken stew. I’ll be adding this recipe to my regular recipe rotation of gluten free dinner meals.

Skinny Vegan Shepherd's Pie (Gluten Free)

Vegan Shepherd's Pie

There is one ingredient every vegan or vegetarian should keep in their pantry. That one ingredient makes a great substitute for beef broth or partial substitute for Worcestershire sauce. Using that ingredient along with a couple of other simple ingredients, this low-fat vegan shepherd’s pie turned out amazing! So amazing that my meat-loving husband said he could eat it for dinner. Make it spicy, if desired.

Black Bean Turkey Chili with Beef Flavor

Stovetop Chicken Tagine (With Lemon and Tomato Substitute Options)

Gluten Free Tagine Chicken

Make this perfectly spiced chicken tagine stew with traditional lemon juice and tomatoes or with my suggested substitute ingredients. Using chicken thighs, legs, or breasts, its combination of spices is something you will surely enjoy. This is an African recipe usually made in a tagine (the stoneware that is used to cook this delicious stew). Instead, you can use a skillet or Dutch oven. Add or omit dried fruit or even vegetables. Make it your own! I provide several suggestions. Continue reading “Stovetop Chicken Tagine (With Lemon and Tomato Substitute Options)”
