I love churros, but this new recipe for gluten free churro bowls, as well as rings, is incredible! Fill them with ice cream or eat them plain. The best part is that they are baked, not deep-fried. So, you get all of the benefits without the added fat and calories. It gets even better. They’re not difficult to make. All you need is a standard or mini muffin pan. Be sure to check out the video. It shows the texture, which is like tender pastry. I’m going to start filling them more than just ice cream! Continue reading “Gluten Free Churro Bowls and Rings (Baked)”
While this site contains a few gluten free focaccia recipes, this gluten free Italian flatbread is special. I use beer to help it rise. You can season it as desired by adding herbs, cheese, or even veggies like sun roasted tomatoes. Then use a dipping sauce of choice or use it for sandwiches. Either way, this gluten free beer focaccia is delicious! Continue reading “Gluten Free Beer Focaccia (Dairy and Egg-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)”
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!

While I already have a gluten free focaccia recipe on this site, I wanted to share my garlic herb version with you. You can use it to make bread crumbs, croutons, serve it as sandwich bread, or dinner bread. I like to cut each piece into three strips and serve them to dip in garlic-herb olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Yum! My husband also enjoys the sticks dipped in pizza sauce.

When I make gluten free puff pastry, I make an entire batch and keep some frozen for a short while. Then I’m able to grab some and make incredible dishes like this gluten free puff pastry pizza.

What better way is there to celebrate Spring than adding color and nutrients to your meals? Adjusting my favorite Gluten Free Egg Noodle Pasta Recipe, I created this gluten free beet ravioli recipe filled with three types of cheese and covered in browned butter or your favorite sauce. You can also make some spinach ravioli using my Gluten Free Spinach Pasta Recipe. I made a creamy browned butter sauce for mine. My husband always enjoys Bolognese (meat) sauce. He’s a meat lover. The ravioli turned out very flavorful, tender, and beautiful. I hope you try it. Continue reading “Gluten Free Beet Ravioli with Three Cheeses and Browned Butter Sauce”
