This recipe for Green Chile Stew comes from my father-in-law, Jim…he’s a bonafide soup master. 😀 PrintSlowcooker Green Chile Stew Prep […]

With party season now upon us, there can never be a shortage of tasty gluten free finger foods! The following recipe for stuffed mushrooms were my husband’s absolute favorite before we gave up dairy.

Gluten-Free Vegan French Onion Dip, Football Party Food (and a few giveaway winners)
posted on November 18, 2011 by
Since going dairy-free earlier this year there have been few things I actually miss (I’m not vegan but we don’t eat dairy and my son is allergic to eggs). Which is really quite surprising to me seeing that it wasn’t too long ago that I could put back nearly a gallon of milk a day. If […]

Today’s post and recipe for gluten-free pumpkin honey spice cookies is courtesy of the National Honey Board.

What is Thanksgiving without the gravy? Just an ordinary meal in my opinion. I could honestly go without most of the Thanksgiving feast, as long as I have gluten-free sage dressing drowning in gluten-free turkey gravy. And maybe some canned cranberry sauce. Admit it, cranberry sauce is just not nearly as interesting when its not […]

This recipe was originally published in 2009, but I’ve updated it with new photos and substitution recommendations for accommodating additional allergens. This recipe for Sage dressing hails from my Grandma in Austin, Minnesota (hi Gram!). It is without a doubt one of my favorite Schmidt family recipes and I have such fond memories of making […]
Gluten and Grain-Free Crab Cakes
posted on October 29, 2011 by
I can vividly recall the first time I was introduced to a crab cake. I was 25 years old and we met in a dimly lit restaurant over a glass of Cabernet. I was shy at first, but my tall and handsome companion gently urged me to put aside my ambivalence and surrender to […]
