One of my regular readers was looking for a soft gluten free bread recipe that had an interesting flavor. I love a nutty flavor and the use of teff flour definitely fits that flavor profile. However, I didn’t stop there. I added some toasted hemp seeds along with sesame seeds. The nutty flavors compliment the sweetness of the honey quite well.

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”
If you like a little crunch and a nutty flavor in your gluten free whole grain bread, this recipe for toasted hemp seeds will be a perfect fit for you. It’s very easy to do and takes very little time. You can toast any seeds, but hemp seeds in particular need to be toasted, as they are hard seeds. Other seeds such as sesame seeds don’t need to be toasted. You can use toasted hemp seeds not only on the tops of your bread, but inside, as well. Now, get to baking some gluten free bread!
The different types of seeds to use in your gluten free bread include hemp, flax, poppy, sesame, sunflower, and pumpkin. Continue reading “Toasted Hemp Seeds Recipe for Bread and Salads”
In preparation for my upcoming butternut squash ravioli recipe I wanted to share my new roasted butternut squash recipe with you. Of course, once I create the ravioli recipe, I will link to this recipe. It is naturally gluten free, does not contain any allergens, and is very yummy! If plan on pureeing this for any reason, consider using a portion of butternut squash and and a portion of sweet potatoes. It makes it thicker and creamier without the use of cream or cheese.

If you’ve ever been to Outback Steakhouse and had their gluten-filled bloomin onion than you know how good it would be go have a gluten free bloomin onion.

I hope you enjoy it as much as my husband and I have over the years. We’ve used beer in the past. For a spicy sauce to dip them in, see the links below. Continue reading “Gluten Free Bloomin’ Onion”
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.

Lemon panna cotta is an Italian, egg-free custard. Panna cotta can be made in several different flavors with an array of sauces. It is often served with biscotti, an Italian biscuit-cookie. You will find this particular recipe to include your choice of plain bourbon sauce or walnut bourbon sauce. I’ve included the recipe for the garnish, candied lemon peel, as well. I hope you enjoy this recipe. It appears to be a lot of work, but if you use plain lemon peel for garnish, it’s done in a snap. I love recipes that create a beautiful presentation, yet are very little work! Enjoy. Continue reading “Lemon Panna Cotta (Egg-Free Custard) with Bourbon Sauce (Gluten-Free)”
I thoroughly enjoyed creating this gluten free white cake recipe as it is so easy to handle when inverting. It is due its many egg whites, which also makes it moist, along with its butter and sugar. You can use your favorite fillings and frosting from fruit purees to sweetened whipped cream and chocolate ganache to fluffy white frosting, or chunks of fruit within the whipped cream. Make it easy on yourself and use canned fruit such as peaches. Get creative! What will you use for your gluten free white cake? Share your ideas in a comment below.
UPDATE: I NEED TO REMAKE THIS CAKE. THERE MUST BE A MISTAKE IN THE INGREDIENT AMOUNT(S) SOMEWHERE, AS TOO MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE RESULTS. I AM SO SORRY.

Osso buco (also known as ossobuco) is my father’s favorite dish. He orders it whenever he sees it on a menu. It is an Italian recipe and when translated mean “hole of bone”. This is due to its succulent bone marrow. Perhaps this does not sound appealing, but you will have to taste it to appreciate it. The rich flavor of the marrow is what creates its rich sauce. Though you will find osso buco recipes that call for red wine, I chose to use white as it is traditional. If you desire an old school version add a bit of cinnamon. Many assume the tomato based sauce is traditional, but it is actually a modern version. Served over polenta or mashed potatoes and topped with gremolada (parsley, lemon juice, and garlic), this gluten free osso buco is a beautiful dish. (See vegan version in the Tips section below).

I have to say, this is the best chili I have ever eaten! It reminds me of ham and beans, made with fresh ham. It is very flavorful, and is made without chili powder and without tomatoes. Due to the amount of cumin it is on the mild spicy side. To make it kid-friendly, cut back on the cumin, and add additional salt. You can easily make this black bean chicken chili organic by using all organic produce and free-range or organic chicken. Continue reading “Creamy Saucy Gluten Free Black Bean Chicken Chili”
