With strawberries being in season, I have been blessed with a weekly abundance of bright, red, plump and juicy organic strawberries in my CSA box. I decided to make some strawberry shortcake this weekend to take to a Memorial Day BBQ. To quote one gluten-eater, they would not have known the biscuit was gluten-free had […]
Gluten Free Churros
posted on May 19, 2010 by
Back in early March, Alta from Tasty Eats at Home posted a Gluten-Free Churro recipe for her Kids in the Kitchen series. When I saw them, I knew I had to make some for Sam. Churros were his favorite treat before he went gluten-free. In case you do not know what a Churro is, they […]

So have you heard the news yet? General Mills will be debuting Gluten-Free Bisquick (and a few other items 😉 ) at the Celiac Disease Foundation’s Annual Education Conference and Food Faire in Los Angeles, on May 15, 2010! I am still speechless (shocking, eh? Don’t worry, it won’t last for long. 😀 ) that […]
Easter Cupcakes
posted on March 31, 2010 by
Yesterday, Luke and I made cupcakes for his class Easter party so we thought we would show you our handiwork! I use the Better Crocker GF Cake Mixes because they are easy and predictable when I am short on time. I hope to start working on finding some good scratch recipes over the coming months […]
Gluten-Free “Nilla” Wafers
posted on February 7, 2010 by
I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome of this recipe! I had been playing around with various gluten-free recipes for copycat Nilla Wafers, but was never all that impressed with the results. I had actually given up trying for a while until Sam’s teacher sent home the Friday Fun Snack recipe of the week. The […]

posted on January 6, 2010 by
Sam has been wanting some chewy granola bars similar to the store-bought Chewy Chocolate Chip Granola Bars that his friends eat. I found the following recipe on a website called Make and Takes. Very cool website by the way! In case you are new to my blog, I should explain what I do for recipes. […]

I know, I know… it’s January 5th and everyone is dieting, trying to eat healthier and going through sugar detox from the holiday season. But what if you could have your “cake and eat it too?” Sorry, couldn’t resist that one! 🙂 I was going through my recipes that have been piling up and this […]
Homemade Gluten Free “Nestle Crunch” Candy Bars
posted on December 21, 2009 by
I got the idea for this the day I was working on my GF Rice Crispies post and dipping my Buckeyes in chocolate at the same time. A light bulb went off… I wonder how it would work out to make my own GF “Nestle Crunch” candy bar with chocolate and the Erewhon Crispy Brown […]
Winter Oreos: Gluten-Free, Dairy/Casein-Free & Egg-Free
posted on December 21, 2009 by
While at the grocery store the other day, Sam spied the Winter Oreos on display. While I was hoping he didn’t notice, the bright red cream put him in a trance! So he said, “Mom, you need to make these. So and so in my class brought them to school in their lunch and they […]
