  • Bakery-style Gluten-free Chocolate Chip Cookies

    You’re closer to those delectable bakery-style cookies than you think! You know the ones that are at all the cafes and filled with gluten :(. No fear! I’ve experimented and found a tried and true recipe that even gluten peeps will enjoy. The key is patience. Don’t rush the dough.

  • Unpopular but make it Gluten-free

    The holidays are not magical for everyone. I know it’s not what you’re supposed to say or admit but it’s the truth. There’s grief, unmet expectations, different beliefs, distance, and any number of other things that can impact in a less so snow-globe Hallmark wonder kind of way. The thing is that’s okay. You’re not…

  • While coleslaw isn’t typically known to have gluten some variations may have sauces or dressings with gluten in the bases.

  • All the Blackstone girlies rise up! If you don’t have a Blackstone – you likely need one – you can prep all of this inside just means more dishes to wash. I don’t love meal prep because I don’t like to eat the same thing for all meals. Not too many years ago I did…

  • Gluten, who?

    Flour, yeast, salt, water, oil … it’s practically magic that when you combine the simplest of ingredients you create the most delicious tasting foods. For example, pizza. An important detail in making a delicious pizza at home is oven heat. It’s challenging to get the oven hot enough and keep the temperature consistent. I’ve experimented…

  • The Summer I Went Gluten-Free

    Bread and Roux are cornerstones of the Cajun diet right alongside the Holy Trinity. The protein depends on the season and is frequently coating in flour during preparation – even when you aren’t frying. I love the flavors of Cajun cooking and the history steeped in each dish and I am stubborn enough to journey…
