Gluten and Allergen Friendly Recipes that the Whole Family will Love
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. The great thing about this recipe? The stuffed mushrooms are naturally gluten-free so no substitutions are necessary…unless of course you want [...]
Today’s post and recipe for gluten-free pumpkin honey spice cookies is courtesy of the National Honey Board. I did add some recommendations to make these cookies dairy-free and egg-free, as well as a couple flavor variations because my husband is not a big fan of nuts and dried fruit in his cookies. The version with [...]
Whether you’re newly gluten-free or a seasoned veteran, there is always something new to be learned in this lifestyle. Being gluten-free certainly keeps you on your toes, whether its the sudden (and unannounced) ingredient changes in processed foods or the serious concerns over cross-contamination of naturally gluten free grains. Nope, the gluten-free diet is FAR [...]
I know I may be venturing into sensitive territory here, but I can’t seem to find a consensus on what to call this dish. Candied Yams or Candied Sweet Potatoes? While I know that yams and sweet potatoes are technically very different foods, it seems that Mother Nature has decided to make them so similar [...]
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 [...]
I am super excited about this recipe for gluten-free, dairy/casein-free caramels because I have tried it 3 times using different substitute ingredients and each one produced a buttery, chewy caramel candy…perfect for dipping apples, making homemade candy treats, you name it. First, let me tell you how I landed on it. I began my quest [...]
I found this recipe by accident really. I was researching what condensed soups really are (in order to have a starting point for improving the condensed soup recipes that I had used in the past), and a Google Search took me to a YouTube video showing Crystal Godfrey of Everyday Food Storage (see the video [...]
This recipe is the base for making gluten-free condensed soups that taste much better than the canned stuff you remember. If you are new to my blog and are looking for a good condensed soup recipe to use in your favorite casserole recipes, you have really got to try this! I found the recipe a [...]
If you’re not much of a pumpkin fan, this recipe is the perfect alternative to the traditional pumpkin pie. To make it extra special, go a la mode with some So Delicious Dairy-Free Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. It also makes for a sinful breakfast treat. Gluten-Free Cranberry Apple Crisp Print Recipe type: Dessert [...]
My mom: “Mmmm, this is closer to my mother’s cornbread dressing than anything I have ever tried to make.” (My grandmother never wrote any of her recipes down, so we have had a terrible time trying to replicate the dishes that mean so much to my mom, gluten-free or otherwise. My Aunt Sarah has given [...]
This recipe hails from my Grandma Schmidt in Austin, Minnesota. It is one of my favorite family recipes. I have very fond memories of making this dressing every Thanksgiving with my dad. Traditionally, we always stuffed the bird which apparently is not a very safe way of cooking it…but it always came out very [...]
Ufta! Sorry I haven’t made a post in a couple of days, yesterday was nuts because I had our carpets cleaned and in the excitement of that, I decided to rearrange my pantry… which led to me painting the pantry… which led to me painting the boys bathroom! Ahhh, I love ADHD at times, I [...]
