Gluten Free Soy Free Soy Sauce Substitute

It’s difficult enough finding a gluten free soy sauce, let alone a gluten free soy free soy sauce. One does exist, though. South River Miso makes a gluten free soy free soy sauce substitute from chickpeas, Miso Tamari, chickpea flavor. It is supposed to be so good that they limit your purchase quantity because it takes at least 3 months to make. Their products are unpasteurized, living foods, rich in enzymes and beneficial microorganisms. They start shipping this year on September 15, 2011. I still need to contact them to find out if they avoid cross-contamination, though, as I see they make a barley miso, as well. I’ll call them and update this page when I find out, hopefully today or early next week. Meanwhile, you can make your own gluten free soy free soy sauce substitute.

Gluten Free Chocolate Cake

This is my version of Hershey’s “Perfectly Chocolate” Chocolate Cake. This gluten free chocolate cake recipe; however, is moister. I knew it would be a very moist cake just by reading the recipe. That’s the way my husband and I like our chocolate cake, rich and very moist! I told him that I was going to call this my chocolate mud cake; however, mud cakes are traditionally very gooey. I wish you were here to help us eat this huge cake! Continue reading “Gluten Free Chocolate Cake”

Carla’s Gluten Free Cake Flour Blend – Self-Rising

It’s extremely convenient to have cake flour in a canister that already has everything you need including leavener. It makes gluten-free cake baking a breeze! Since this mix contains baking powder and baking soda, it is perfect for just about any cake recipe. It addresses the times you need an acidic ingredient as well. For example, when you use Dutch-processed cocoa, which is alkaline-based, you should use baking soda. Continue reading “Carla’s Gluten Free Cake Flour Blend – Self-Rising”

Asparagus with Gluten Free Hollandaise Sauce

As a child my mother served the family asparagus with mayonnaise on the side for dipping. I suppose it was a busy mother’s quick solution to asparagus with hollandaise sauce. Don’t get me wrong. It was delicious and I still use this myself! It hides the bitter taste of asparagus, especially for kids. However, asparagus with gluten free hollandaise sauce is such a treat!

5 Cheese Gluten Free Grilled Cheese Sandwich

While watching Diners Drive-ins and Dives I heard the words “5 Cheese Easy Grilled Cheese Sandwich”. Ah, it seems like I haven’t had a grilled cheese sandwich in ages, not to mention a gluten free grilled cheese sandwich. My husband calls this sandwich The Widow Maker (high fat, high cholesterol, high sodium) – though he ate half my sandwich, after stating he was only going to have a couple of bites. I say everything in moderation. Time for lunch or a midnight snack? Check out this recipe and make you and your family some easy gluten free sandwiches and eat at your own risk! It’s super crunchy!

Baked or Grilled Gluten Free Pizza Crust Recipe (in Cast Iron Skillet)

I keep hearing from some of my readers that it’s just too hot to bake, even a good gluten-free pizza! In researching how to grill a gluten-free pizza in a cast iron skillet, I came across Man Tested Recipes’ Pizza Dough for Cast Iron Skillet Pizza recipe. Though it is not a gluten-free grilled pizza recipe, it provided me with how much yeast to use, so I could skip the Expandex used in my previous gluten free pizza crust recipe. In addition, my last recipe was a bit too chewy for my taste. So, this time, I added a little more sorghum flour, used less tapioca starch and more potato starch, skipped the agar-agar, and tripled the yeast. It came out great in less than hour! I hope you enjoy! Continue reading “Baked or Grilled Gluten Free Pizza Crust Recipe (in Cast Iron Skillet)”

Gluten Free Hash Browns with Potatoes and Zucchini

In an effort to add more vegetables to my diet, I am finding more and more ways of either hiding them or adding them to standard recipes. Homemade hash browns do not take much longer to cook than the frozen kind. The only extra work is in peeling them. However, they don’t turn out as crispy as frozen do. I just shred my potatoes, zucchini and onion through the food processor and it’s prepped in no time! Continue reading “Gluten Free Hash Browns with Potatoes and Zucchini”

A Healthier Gluten Free Burger with Spinach

A naturally gluten free burger can be tasteless, but this one is full of flavor and is a great way to hide vegetables! When I told my husband I was going to add spinach to our burgers his eyebrows raised appearing very concerned. I smiled, and reassured him he wouldn’t taste it. He enjoys spinach raw, as in spinach salad, but definitely not cooked, though he’d eat it by mixing it with other food on his plate. I served him his burger, along with a salad which contained zucchini, and he enjoyed both, but loved the burger! It’s on the sweet side, and you can omit the chipotle or hot sauce for kids, and possibly the onion, or saute the onion before adding to the raw meat. As you can tell from the photo below, the spinach is very hard to detect. Get to hiding those veggies! Continue reading “A Healthier Gluten Free Burger with Spinach”

Fresh Fruit Heals Leaky Gut

The best recipes for a leaky gut contain whole foods (unprocessed foods), but some in particular. Perhaps you’re sick of fruit and are now going for those high carb snacks. I think we all have gone through the feeling of being deprived when we first start a gluten free diet, though once you find your favorite brands of gluten free baked goods, including bread, all hell breaks loose on the scale, at least those of us who have healed already. This is why I have been concentrating on finding a more healthy gluten free snack. Though I don’t ever think I’ll give up perfecting gluten free baked recipes. Everything in moderation, right? So, while your gut is still healing, ditch those high carb baked goods and reach recipes for leaky gut such as those containing high complex carbohydrates: legumes (if tolerated), fresh vegetables and fresh fruit.
