No-Cook Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Sugar-Free Chocolate Mousse

Raw Chocolate Mousse

Imagine a no-cook sugar-free chocolate mousse that is also gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, soy-free, corn-free, vegan and more! – that takes 5 minutes to whip up! Of course, you’ll need to soak one of the natural sweeteners, but that just takes about 4 hours. What is that sweetener? Dates! If you’re diabetic or low-carb, use a bit of stevia instead. Inspired by a few of my Facebook friends, I decided to create more gluten-free, sugar-free recipes. I’ve been meaning to grill some fruit but haven’t cleaned the grill yet. Unexpected guests? This is sure to please, as well as a great conversation topic! You can be sure I’ll be creating several versions of this recipe in the very near future. Perhaps with strawberries and bananas (not avocado and strawberries because that will turn to a brown color), other fruit and added nuts, like macadamia nuts or walnuts. With summertime here, it’s great not to bake! Enjoy and stay healthy!

Gluten Free Almond Poppy Seed Teacake

What is a teacake you ask? A teacake is a low cake, never frosted and is sturdy enough to pick up and eat with your hands. Traditionally, it is made in a loaf pan, but you may dress it up a bit by making it in a bundt pan. It is served with tea, but of course, you can eat this gluten free cake with your beverage of choice. You must like garbanzo bean flour to enjoy this recipe as is, or use Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Baking Flour. Bean flour has a unique taste, all its own, and is not for everyone. If you like The Grainless Baker Graham Crackers you’ll enjoy this one without any substitutions! You may also wish to consider using vanilla extract instead of almond and adding lots of spices (cinnamon, cloves, etc.) to hide the bean taste. This cake is very moist! I hope you enjoy this gluten free cake! Continue reading “Gluten Free Almond Poppy Seed Teacake”

Sugar Free Dairy Free Gluten Free Doughnuts – Baked

I haven’t had a doughnut (donut) since I started my gluten-free diet. I didn’t really miss them, but enjoy the challenge of gluten-free baking. These gluten free doughnuts are baked, making them healthier than the standard recipes, as they are usually deep fried. In addition, some whole grain flours were used to provide additional health benefits, as well as agave and molasses. They taste much like the real thing! I think you’ll be very pleased. You can play around with this recipe substituting 1/4 cup of your favorite flour for one of the others. Add in your favorite baking seasonings or extracts, too. Experiment and have fun!

Gluten Free Egg Substitutes

For those who are also completely egg-free, you may find this list of egg substitutes very helpful. There are 3 basic purposes of using egg in a recipe: to moisten, to bind ingredients together, or to leaven (rise). Depending on the purpose, will depend upon the egg substitute used. Using an egg substitute is a great way to lower your cholesterol and calorie intake, as well. I especially like the use of flax seed meal as an egg replacer. Though agar-agar works very well, too, it is quite expensive. I am constantly discovering new gluten free egg substitutes. So check back often. I usually add a dated update for new discoveries.

Gluten Free Cracker Recipe: Whole Grain

Plate of Whole Grain Gluten Free Crackers

This was my first attempt at creating a gluten free cracker recipe. I was really anchoring for a healthy gluten-free snack made from whole grains. They compliment a dip very well. Avocado and hummus are my faves! They have a bit of a nutty flavor due to the teff and millet flours, a great way to get fiber and whole grains. The thinner you roll them, the crispier the cracker. Perhaps you already have a favorite gluten free cracker recipe. And perhaps and this will inspire you to use a little whole grains in it next time. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Roasted Red Pepper Mashed Potatoes

Roasted Red Bello Pepper Mashed Potatoes - Naturally Gluten Free

I went to my favorite Italian restaurant that caters to those on a gluten-free diet and they made up something special for me, along with their delicious roasted red pepper mashed potatoes! Ever since I have been meaning to create my own recipe. These can be made dairy-free by using a butter or margarine substitute, however, I used butter on mine. I thought my husband who likes to eat American style, meat and potatoes, may not enjoy these gluten free roasted red pepper mashed potatoes over regular mashed potatoes, but he did! And it is now our new fave! I hope you enjoy them, as well! Continue reading “Gluten Free Roasted Red Pepper Mashed Potatoes”

Gluten Free Savory Quinoa Recipe

Gluten Free Savory Quinoa Recipe

I love this quinoa recipe! Years ago when I first began my gluten-free diet, I tried a quinoa pasta, but it made me bloated. I finally got around to cooking quinoa and I love it! What a great grain, actually it’s they are seeds, related to species such as beets, spinach, and tumbleweeds. I find quinoa to be very unique in flavor, in between rice and pasta. Of course, I had to top mine off with some grated parmesan and romano cheese – must be the Italian in me!  Enjoy this savory quinoa recipe! I sure did!

Himalayan Red Rice Recipe

Himalayan Red Rice and White Rice

This Himalayan red rice recipe is great with added heat, such as gluten-free hot sauce or gluten free chipotle sauce.  It is almost reminds me of red beans and white rice, with a slight nutty flavor. However, I would definitely use red rice alone in soup for added protein and fiber.  Himalayan red rice is formally known as Bhutanese red rice, but because it is grown in the Himalayan Mountains most people refer to it as Himalayan red rice. It is slightly sticky after cooking and contains more bran than brown rice. It is “rich in B vitamins, iron and calcium. The reddish color of red rice is due to an antioxidant called anthocyanin, which is currently being studied in relation to the alleviation of chronic health conditions.” *  Himalayan red rice is not the same as red yeast rice which is associated with the same side effects as statin (high cholesterol) drugs.  Red yeast rice is fermented and Himalayan red rice is not.

Gluten-Free Breaded Zucchini Kabobs

My best recipes are created when I am hungry, and this one is no different. My husband and I loved these broiled, breaded, gluten-free zucchini kabobs! Making them as kabobs just dressed them a bit more, but you can definitely make them separately by using toothpicks instead of kabob sticks. I will definitely use this zucchini kabobs recipe for entertaining. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did! Continue reading “Gluten-Free Breaded Zucchini Kabobs”
