Recipes, pictures, advice, news, and adventures from a Mom who wants to make your Gluten Free life as easy and as tasty as I try to make ours. Store.

Gluten Free Flour Blend-NO FAIL!!! A non-GF eater would never know you used! (Make a big batch and store in large container-I make a triple batch at a time. Yes, I bake that much.) For one batch-

5 cups brown or white rice flour (I use Bobs Red Mill and one of his store bought packs have exactly 5 cups.)
3 cups tapioca starch/flour
1 1/2 cups potato starch
2 tbsp xantham gum

Blend well-shake, mix, whatever. You want this blended well together. Use all the time!!!!

‼️How many times is there a party or a barbecue or an “end of school year party” and you don’t have a treat for your little one? Keep these in the freezer and you’ll always have something to give to them so they don’t feel left out. ❤️🙏 Even for you - office parties, just because. They are delicious and individually wrapped for convenience and thaw on a dashboard of your car in minutes (yes I’ve had to grab and go and run to the school the dashboard thaw works!)

This is an easy one pan meal. 🍴For beginners or seaosned cooks.
A large roasting pan can fit two chicken if need be. Layer all the veggies on the bottom. Throw it all with butter and herbs and salt and pepper.
There are sooooo many recipes for Sunday roast chicken online. I just pulled one up on insta today that caught my eye! 🔥Always delish and always gluten-free.

(Rhubarb cake recipe - one of my all time fave bakers!)

🥣Home Made Tomato-ish soup. 🍅🥕🧅
I love soup. Any kind of soup. It’s the best way to get a bunch of veggies and proteins and just fun stuff together. Also a great way to use “old” veggies or frozen veggies and all those cans of beans in your pantry. 🔥And you can make a BIG POT that can last for days!!!! For me there is no real recipe for soups. You just throw in a bunch of ingredients and it kind of works itself out along the way. This one was too easy:

Roasted veggies (tomatoes, onions, carrots, garlic)
Veggie broth
Cream
Herbs and salt and pepper, olive oil

Heat oven to 375. Toss the chopped veggies with olive oil and salt and pepper. Roast until softened and lightly caramelized. Transfer veggies to large bowl or sauce pan. Add broth and herbs. Blend with emulsion blender or throw into a food processor or blender (make sure the veggies have cooled never blend hot with the cover on!). Add some cream and more spices. And voila. Soup! 🥣 For heartier soup, add cooked pasta or rice. Or serve with grilled cheese like we did.

🔥Viral carmelized onion pasta.🔥
https://plantyou.com/one-pan-caramelized-onion-pasta/

〰️I used spaghetti. 〰️And I traded out the coconut milk for half and half. 〰️Also added cherry tomatoes instead of sun-dried (it’s what I had) and red pepper flakes for some kick. 〰️Topped it all with freshly grated Parmesan. ❤️It was so good. 🍝🍝🍝

🥞I like to take foods that might not be the healthiest (although comfort food does nourish the soul) and add a little “health” if you will. Make a bunch, keep in the fridge all week for easy grab! Sometimes we add a scrambled egg on top or even wrap a sausage link in it and dip in syrup. Yummy.

🥞Take any Gluten-Free pancake mix.
🥞Use the amount of milk for as many as you are making based on instructions.
🥞Add an extra egg or even two.
🥞Sprinkle in some flax meal.
🥞Replace the butter/oil with unsweetened apple sauce.
🥞Cook em up!

☔️☔️☔️Happy Tuesday.

🥣🥣🥣Overnight oats overnight oat overnight oats!!!! It’s all we seem to hear and see! 🤣 They have taken over reels and thoughts and lives! But without just cause. They are nutritious, easy, filling, and relatively CHEAP. Besides that, soaking them overnight (the reason) softens them and makes them more digestible-but the soaking truly takes it a step further. It reduces phytic acid in the oats-Phytic acid blocks nutrient absorption. And Celiacs and especially already damaged Celiacs don’t need any more help in that department. 🤪

🔥Overnight oats aren’t just for breakfast either. Post run snack, after school snack and even lunch. We don’t always have to be so proper.

❓❓❓What do YOU like to top your overnight oats with?

❤️☀️Enjoy and bon appetit.

Tacos for dinner! 🎉🎉🎉
So….i had to pick up the middle from college yesterday therefore being gone almost all day. Therefore I decided to throw in a couple free range organic chicken breasts and some boneless chicken thighs in the crock pot-I added: 🌮 Salt and pepper, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne, fresh lime juice, a small can of green chilies, and olive oil (always good quality evoo ). All ingredients liberally applied. 🌮 set the crock to low. 🌮 came home to house smelling amazing! 🌮Shredded the meat easily and mixed with all the juices (should have snapped pic).
🌮 Lightly warmed corn tortillas on skillet with a little olive oil and used whatever greens I had plus Greek yogurt, sharp cheddar and salsa as topping. 🔥🔥🔥This couldn’t be more satisfying or delicious. And there’s always leftovers for lunch bowls the next day.

Might not be my best photo, but hopefully you’ll get the gist. This is kind of a regular around our house. Salmon over some risotto with roasted vegetables. Easy easy, easy to make. 😃And easy to make in all different ways and with all different flavors.
🔥 your starch does not have to be risotto. It can be rice or potatoes or nothing at all.
🔥 veggies you love. Today Rocketman wanted something Mediterranean style so I used asparagus, tomatoes, zucchini, lots of capers and lemon.
🔥 as far as the salmon goes, salmon just hosts so many health benefits so we tend to eat it a lot. I do buy a salmon from my local seafood guy, but you can get salmon from the grocery store, you can get it in the freezer section, from Costco. Don’t be afraid to season your salmon. I drizzle with lots of good olive oil and lemon juice and then I add garlic powder, salt, and pepper, liberally, paprika, and whatever herbs you want that day or have a taste for. Don’t be afraid to apply liberally. Especially if you think the kiddos will be fish adverse.👶👧
🔥 your salmon can be baked, pan fried, or grilled. You can buy a very large piece and bake that and have leftovers for the next night and you can use it the same way or you can make tacos, put it over a bed of greens and make a big salad, or throw on a bun with some tartar sauce and have a fish sandwich.

Yum! And always Gluten Free! ❤️
