However, this is not a compensated post and the opinions expressed here are strictly my own. I’ve never been shy about sharing my struggle to commit to the gluten free diet after my celiac […]

Dairy-Free Basil Pesto
posted on June 9, 2011 by
I don’t know about you, but I LOVE pesto! Pesto screams summer to me, or better yet, my fantasy of sitting at a seaside cafe in Genoa, Italy at sunset, holding my handsome husband’s hand while a light, salt kissed breeze strokes my face as I sip on a glass of Italy’s finest vino and […]
Homemade Gluten-Free Egg-Free Orzo Pasta
posted on November 8, 2010 by
I will be sharing the recipe for the Orzo Stuffed Delicata Squash in a guest post I that will be doing on Thursday, November 11th over at The Gluten Free Homemaker, for Linda’s awesome Squash Fest series. In order to make it though, you will first need to know how to make homemade gluten-free orzo […]
Gluten-Free Chicken Marsala and Dairy-Free Pasta Alfredo
posted on November 5, 2010 by
First thing first. “Alfredo” is probably not the right word for this sauce, at least not in a technical sense because it lacks one of the most important components of a true Alfredo sauce…Parmesan cheese (shhh…it also lacks the butter and heavy cream, but I won’t tell if you won’t tell). 😉 When my husband […]
Gluten Free and Egg Free Pasta Dough
posted on September 14, 2010 by
First, I must apologize for the lack of noodles in the above picture. I’m sure you can imagine the many uses for a plate full of fresh noodles that a 6 and 3 year old boy’s imagination could muster up (I’m still not sure how one ended up in the fishbowl). I am also sorry […]
How to Cook Spaghetti Squash and Gluten-Free Pasta Sauces
posted on June 23, 2010 by
My gluten-free dry pasta of choice is Tinkyada (I really cannot recommend it enough). My boys really like the spinach pasta because they think it looks like worms. Add marinara to the picture and I am sure you can imagine how interesting my dinner table can get! 😉 Over the past several months, I have […]
Meatballs (Gluten-Free, Corn-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free and Soy-Free)
posted on April 17, 2010 by
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 […]
Gluten-Free “Boxed” Mac and Cheese
posted on February 25, 2010 by
Okay, so it’s not really “Boxed” Mac and Cheese but “Bagged” Mac and Cheese just sounds weird! 😀 I have been making my own “Kraft-like” GF Mac and Cheese for a long time now, mostly because I do not care for the texture of the pasta in the GF store-bought Mac and Cheese. The other […]
Tomato-Free Marinara Sauce
posted on January 8, 2010 by
This is such a cool recipe! I have not made it in a few years, in fact I forgot about until I made a post and referenced a disease called Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EE). Sam used to have a playmate with EE and I got the opportunity to play around with different combinations of foods that […]
Crab Alfredo
posted on August 29, 2009 by
One of my favorite entrees at Red Lobster before I was diagnosed with CD was the Crab Alfredo. Here is my GF re-creation: During crab season, when king crab is marked down to $8.99/lb (versus the $30.00/lb something you pay at a restaurant), I buy a few pounds (okay, probably 20!) and keep it in […]
