Zucchini Hash Browns

Several weeks, perhaps months, ago, I created a combined zucchini and potato hash brown recipe. Since then, I’ve been wanting to try just zucchini hash browns. The opportunity presented itself, as someone gave us a giant zucchini. It must have been 2 feet long and 6 inches wide. There isn’t much to this recipe, but it sure is delicious…and much healthier than your typical hash browns. In addition, it is much lower in carbs than regular hash browns!

Gluten Free Bread Recipe: Quinoa and Flaxseed

Both quinoa and flax seed are very healthy, making this gluten free bread recipe a win-win because it is also delicious. This bread’s texture is pliable which is often hard to find in gluten free bread. Besides being one of the highest protein foods, quinoa contains twice the fiber as most grains. Flax seed not only contains fiber, but omega-3 fatty acids and the same ingredient as aloe vera. Quinoa is sometimes an acquired taste, but you can always substitute some of the quinoa flour for oat, sorghum or millet flour. Then you can increase the amount of quinoa flour once your taste buds become accustomed to it. As stated above, this bread has a great texture and is a wonderful choice to improve your health.

Chocolate Bowl Recipe (Gluten-Free) with Chocolate Mousse

I had ordered some chocolate dessert molds and some chocolate candy molds so that when I went to visit my grandkids we’d have something fun to do. I wanted to show the family that gluten free desserts can be delicious, too. We made chocolate bowls filled with mousse. The gluten free chocolate mousse was from a packaged that we doctored up. And we topped it all off with a chocolate candy. Yum! However, we used too large of a size mold, and it was just way too much chocolate for some of us. Though some of us die-hard chocolate lovers finished every bite. I suggest a little smaller size, though any size would make wonderful gluten free desserts. You can even fill them with fresh fruit. If you do not have a chocolate mold try using small custard cups and top one with another. Enjoy and have fun! Continue reading “Chocolate Bowl Recipe (Gluten-Free) with Chocolate Mousse”

Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread

Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread

My husband requested that I make him a gluten free cinnamon raisin bread. Having already created a cranberry cinnamon raisin oat bread, I thought I would use a different flour this time. In an attempt to make a more economical bread, I used the typical starches and white and brown rice flours. I really like this bread knowing it is sweetened only with molasses, and includes a little flax seed meal, as well. This bread is soft, much like a gluten-free sandwich bread, however, if you wish a lighter gluten-free cinnamon raisin bread, I would suggest using more tapioca flour than potato flour. This is what I am going to experiement with next. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread”

Stove Top Chili Fries Recipe: Spicy or Mild

I was thinking about whipping up some of my Indian fries with turmeric, but had decided to turn this into a gluten free chili fries recipe. You may add cheese or not, however, these are very tasty on their own. The mustard is the key, here. Any of the spices, other than chili powder, such as cumin and red peppers can go to the wayside if making this for children. This chili fries recipe is my way of having junk food without all of the chemicals, added sugar and gluten cross-contamination issues. Continue reading “Stove Top Chili Fries Recipe: Spicy or Mild”

Gluten Free Falafel with Cucumber Sauce

Falafel Lettuce Wrap

Falafel, which are popular in the Middle East, is now served all over the world as a replacement for meat, normally have a cake-like texture to them, similar to doughnuts. The texture of this gluten free falafel is something you’ve probably never experienced before, but both my husband and I really enjoyed this. I normally would have cast this recipe aside because it is not the traditional texture inside, but we enjoyed it more than the usual. It has a creamy, almost bean-like texture inside and crispy on the outside. I added a few unusual ingredients, and I am really glad that I did. I hope you enjoy my new version of gluten-free falafel. I’ve included my cucumber dipping sauce, too! Continue reading “Gluten Free Falafel with Cucumber Sauce”

Gluten Free Meatloaf with Spinach and Cherry Red Wine Glaze

Glazed Gluten Free Meatloaf Roulad Stuffed with Spinach

It’s time to add (or hide) more veggies to your gluten free recipes. And what better dish to add them to than a gluten free meatloaf? (This is so moist and tasty!) You’ll increase your fiber, lessen your fat and calorie intake and get more nutrients at the same time. And don’t skip the veggies on the side thinking you have your sufficient intake. It is now suggested rather than loading your plate with one third vegetables, that if you increase it to half, you’ll be much healthier.

Gluten Free White Sandwich Bread Recipe – an experiment w/superfine rice flour

Having had a few requests for a gluten free white sandwich bread recipe, I thought I’d create one, seeing that I had to bake bread anyway. My birthday’s coming up and why shouldn’t I give myself a little treat, right? It turned out incredibly well, if I don’t say so myself. I can’t describe the soft texture well enough when it first came out of the oven. Just incredible! That’s the only word I can think of for this bread. Unfortunately, it becomes much too heavy and starchy as it cools. This is an article more on what not to do.

Gluten Free Snack Bars (Chocolate or Graham Cracker): No Bake with Raw Options

I surveyed my Facebook friends, and it was a toss up whether I should make gluten free snack bars with a chocolate or graham cracker flavor for my next blog post. Since I discovered I was fresh out of gluten free graham crackers, I found my answer. How this whole idea started was when I first made my Chocolate Chip Bars and Cranberry Walnut Bars.
