Butternut Squash Gluten Free Ravioli with Creamy Garlic Sauce

I absolutely adore Pasta Prima’s Gluten Free Butternut Squash Ravioli, however, now that I realize I am allergic to tapioca I cannot have them. So, to the drawing board I went and the results were nothing but spectacular! Making homemade gluten free ravioli is definitely a weekend project for those who work, but you can also make the filling a couple of days in advance. My husband enjoyed his with my Italian Spaghetti Sauce and I used the creamy garlic sauce (recipe provided below). I hope you enjoy these gluten free ravioli, as well. They are definitely a treat!

Lower-Fat Gluten Free Coleslaw

Memorial Day is coming up soon, and classic dishes like coleslaw are often served. Whether you are having a barbecue, a picnic, or just eating in, this gluten free coleslaw recipe will fit the menu well. It is lower in fat than most coleslaw recipes as I use a bit of fat-free/non-fat Greek yogurt to substitute some of the mayonnaise. If you are on a dairy-free diet, feel free to use plain dairy-free yogurt. For others not needing a low-fat recipe, use all mayonnaise. Meanwhile, you may consider this recipe for Mother’s Day, as well. Continue reading “Lower-Fat Gluten Free Coleslaw”

Gluten Free Blueberry Pie

Today is National Blueberry Pie Day! What better way to celebrate it than with a gluten free blueberry pie? You will find the link below to my gluten free double pie crust, which is pretty easy to handle compared to most gluten free pie dough. This makes transferring the crusts a breeze, especially in a double pie crust. If you’re pretty new to pie baking, consider  cutting out shapes and placing it on top, like in this Gluten Free Cherry Pie. I think I’d use smaller stars next time, though. Meanwhile, I hope you get to enjoy some of this delicious blueberry pie, as it is made with fresh blueberries. If you don’t have the time for fresh, use Comstock or Wilderness brand pie fillings. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Blueberry Pie”

If you looking for soft gluten free chocolate chip cookies, you’ve come to the right place. If you prefer firm cookies check out my previous Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies made with a bit of almond flour. While this recipe is delicious, I favor the almond flavor a bit more. If you have access to superfine rice flour, I highly recommend using it over regular rice flour, as the regular is quite gritty. See the tip section to prevent a bit of this gritty flavor. Meanwhile, enjoy! Continue reading “Soft Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies”

Soft Potato-Free Corn-Free Gluten Free Bread Recipe (Dairy-Free Option)

I thought it appropriate to create a gluten free bread recipe which is free of both corn and potato since so many of you are intolerant to either or both.  My husband is a breadaholic. He refers to himself as a bread connoisseur. It’s always a compliment when he enjoys my gluten free bread recipes, as he still consumes some gluten food. He enjoyed this one, and I hope you will, too. It’s perfect for young kids as well as adults.

Note: The photo of the bread folded below is when it is cool…and it is still very soft.

Gluten Free Spaghetti and Meatballs

This recipe brings back fond memories of our traditional Sunday Italian dinner at my grandmother’s house when I was a child. Though Grandma didn’t make gluten free spaghetti and meatballs, this recipe tastes just the same. All you need is good tasting gluten free bread crumbs (there are some bad ones out there) or gluten free oat flour. You can make this recipe to serve a crowd, or freeze most of it for future use. I usually make it ahead of time and freeze it in several different size contains: individual, two servings, four servings and one large one. Then I am prepared for unexpected guests or when I just don’t have the time to cook for my hubby. I’m allergic to tomatoes, but my guests and husband really enjoy this recipe, and I hope you do, as well. Continue reading “Gluten Free Spaghetti and Meatballs”
