Canyon Bakehouse Gluten-Free Bread Review (and Sandwich Puzzles!)

Recently, I was the lucky recipient of some complimentary gluten-free bread products from Canyon Bakehouse, a dedicated gluten-free facility in Loveland, Colorado. All I can say is… YUM! Funny story; the day the Canyon Bakehouse products arrived, I placed them on the counter and waited patiently until Mike and the boys got home from work/school […]

Gluten-Free Reuben Sandwich

Well, almost. There obviously isn’t any rye bread in this version and I am too lazy to make my own GF Rye-Style bread with added Caraway Seed!  I also added a little bit of pastrami in my variation just because I like it. Click this link for a little history on the Reuben Sandwich. I […]

Homemade “Safe Cleanser” Recipe from the Dr. Oz Show

I while back I had the Dr. Oz Show on in the background and my ears piped up when I heard “homemade non-toxic cleanser.” I just had to try it. I have been slowly trying to remove most chemicals from our house but have been resistant to homemade cleaners using vinegar, because I don’t want […]

Meatballs (Gluten-Free, Corn-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free and Soy-Free)

Maybe I should have called them “Eggless Meatball Wonders,” or “Guiltless Meatballs,” because there are several nutritious ingredients cleverly hidden inside, and you cannot even tell! 😉 Ever since I started experimenting with “flax eggs,” I have become increasingly impressed with the results in most of my experiments.  So much so, I have found myself […]

Easy Gluten-Free Baking and Cookbook Author Elizabeth Barbone

Elizabeth Barbone is one of my favorite gluten-free cookbook authors, I love my Easy Gluten-Free Baking cookbook.  I remember when I first got the cookbook, I soaked up her recipes, especially the “Tastes Like” chapter at the back of the book.  Elizabeth has recipes for gluten-free “Oreos,” “Twinkies,” “Devil Dogs,” and more.  I do believe […]

Yoplait Greek Yogurt “Nourish Your Inner Goddess” Giveaway

I recently had the opportunity to sample the new Yoplait Greek Yogurt when the folks at Yoplait and MyBlogSpark offered to send me coupons for two free cups of Greek yogurt and a “Nourish Your Inner Goddess” gift pack.  Naturally, I was all over that one!  They have even offered to give one of my […]

Lunchbox Kabobs

Back when I was working on my review for the Easy Lunchbox System (while simultaneously trying to recreate an “authentic looking” GF Lunchable), I really started to ponder how most kids perceive foods just by how they look and how they are packaged, you saw my “McCarrot Experiment,” right?.  I have also been trying to […]

Redbridge Gluten-Free Beer Is NOT Being Discontinued

Woo-Hoo!  After hearing and reading the rumors about Redbridge Gluten-Free Beer possibly being discontinued, I had to find out if this was true.  I just received an email from Michael Lourie, Communications Manager at Anheuser-Busch, Inc., that I wanted to share: April 13, 2010 Heidi, Thank you for contacting us and for your interest in […]

Rainbow Chard Sauteed with Mushooms

Some time ago, I made a conscious decision to further transform how I eat and to expose my children to more naturally gluten-free foods, like fresh vegetables. It’s amazing how a naturally gluten-free diet is so much easier on your pocketbook! 😀 Fruits and veggies have always been a part of our diet, but probably […]
