This blog post is inspired by two of our sister gluten-free bakers. I am so happy to hear from them and to get their feedback especially on the DIY gluten-free pizza mix. The first comment and update was from Kim B. She mentioned that the previous pizza mix used one envelope of yeast and my […]
Chili and cornbread are a winter tradition in my family. Even as we went gluten-free, I realized that with little modification, such as using Baking Free flour, I could continue using my recipe for cornbread and continue with this tradition. For years my husband and our sons have made big batches of chili for Sunday […]
Weekends in our house now revolve around what teams are playing football on Saturday or Sunday. Family and friends often gather to watch exciting competitions together, and food is a necessary ingredient to our enjoyment. Last weekend this tasty snack–a dip with gluten-free dippers–won me some lovely compliments. Little did most people know, most of […]
Sometimes my family just needs something crispy to munch on! This is my go to recipe since it makes up fast and I can keep some in the freezer (either unbaked as a log or baked). We like the added zip of the spicy pepper. It seems to punch up the Cheddar cheese flavor. […]
One of the best things about the end of Summer is the harvest of wonderful, flavorful tomatoes available. If you grow your own or buy them at a farmers market, you can’t beat the flavor of fresh- from-the-garden tomatoes. Usually I have such a bounty from my garden that I am looking for new ways […]
I sure hope your garden is as bountiful as mine has been. If so, you will understand why I have so many tomato and zucchini recipes that I make for my family. This recipe makes a great side dish or vegetarian main dish. The wonderful flavor of sun ripened tomatoes comes through and can’t be […]
Summer is here in full force. The kids are out of school but still have lots of activities that keep them busy and in need of a quick, healthy breakfast so they can get outside as soon as possible. I have found that these breakfast squares are a hit with them, and I appreciate that […]
It is always the dilemma in my house when I get ready to bake. The kids always opt for something sweet–cookies, desserts or breads. All are good for snacks in the summer for them. The adults often want something savory. I find I don’t crave to eat as much if the offering is savory. That […]
Saint Patrick’s Day is almost here! I have some Irish ancestors and I enjoy the occasional Guinness. Plus, I know a lot about the British Isles as I studied their history in college as a personal interest. I figured that if we could understand what caused the blight on potatoes in the 1840’s, perhaps the […]
I think the thing I miss most since becoming gluten-free are crunchy crackers. In the past, my husband’s work hours were irregular. I could not always count on his being home on time for dinner. And, dinner in our house has always been a family affair. We all sit down to the meal together […]
