I love the smoky flavor of chipotle and cumin. It can really change a boring corn soup into something exciting. Well it can do the same for ground turkey. In my effort to eat less beef, I’ll be making burgers this month with ground chicken and turkey with a little sausage added in once in […]

Gluten Free Cooking Spree From NFCA in DC
For the past 2 years I have really enjoyed attending the NFCA (National Foundation For Celiac Awareness) Gluten Free Cooking Spree. It was one of the first things I attended soon after I found out I could no longer eat gluten. It had only been 3 months since finding out and I was still on […]
Vegetarian Huevos Rancheros- Gluten Free and Dairy Free
Another quick fix meal for breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack time that is gluten free and dairy free. The key is to have already made the corn tortillas, refried beans and salsa. You could of course use some purchased from the store. The only other ingredient used was 2 scrambled eggs, 1 per tortilla. Warm […]
Adopt a Gluten Free Blogger- Potato Crusted Frittata
I had a lot of fun with Adopt a Gluten Free Blogger that Book of Yum has started. It gets me out of my own head and into that of fabulous cooks. My new favorite book is Ali Stegersten’s Whole Life Nutrition Book. It is a great resource and it was wonderful to have her […]
Monthly Menu Plan –April 2009
Is it really Spring? What do you think of when someone says spring? Spring Break, Spring Cleaning, others? I’ve already had Spring Break so now I’m on to Spring Cleaning. I think of this time of year not just about cleaning but clearing out. Well this year I’m including my freezer on the list of […]
My Blackened Tilapia Turned Chicken
My menu said tilapia for dinner but I had a large package of chicken that I needed either to cook or to freeze, so the chicken was cooked. Now most of the time when you blacken fish you cook it in butter. Well I cook gluten free and dairy free so there was no butter […]
Menu Plan Monday -March 30
This week has one of my favorite days of the year. Every year I love to craft some creative ways to “get” my family. One of my past favorites was getting my kids up for school and telling them they needed to retake the standardized test because the school called and the machine that reads […]
Buffalo & Beef Chili with Goats Eyes
It’s been cold and damp for the past few days so I was very happy that Chili was on my menu. I’ve had this package of buffalo on my inventory list for some time just waiting to be used. I had found it hiding at the bottom of my chest freezer when I had finally […]
Kitchen Inventory Time
It’s that time of the month where you should inventory your pantry, freezer and refrigerator to see what you have on hand. This should be your guide as you create your monthly menu. This is what I will be doing this weekend after my talk today on living gluten free (shameless plug). It usually takes […]
California Cobb Salad
California Cobb has long been one of my favorite salads. It was the first salad I put on the menu at Mycroft’s restaurant in Huntington, WV. Sadly, that establishment is no longer there because the past owner, Ty Neal, has an amazing restaurant in DC called Matchbox. They have two locations and I highly recommend […]
