    Avocado Cucumber Mango Salsa (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    Celiac.com 05/15/2014 - I’m a big salsa lover, and I love to make new salsa recipes and try them at home. When I get a good one, I like to incorporate it into my regular seasonal salsa rotation.

    This recipe blends avocado, cucumber, mango and tomato with just the right amount of onion, cilantro and jalapeño to deliver a delightful zesty fruit salsa that is sure to disappear quickly.

    Butter and fresh tarragon were once my go-to dressing for carrots, but my flaring sweet tooth recently pulled me in a slightly different direction. This recipe turned out to be just sweet enough to rival dessert. This is a great dish to serve when you have guests, especially if you can get your hands on rainbow carrots.
    Ingredients:
    1 pound carrots cut into 1-inch pieces
    2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
    1 tablespoon butter
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    ½ cup freshly chopped parsley
    Pepper to taste
    Directions:
    Salt a medium pot of boiling water and cook carrots for 5-6 minutes until tender-crisp and drain.
    Add carrots to a medium saucepan and heat with syrup, butter, and lemon juice.
    Cook until carrots are well-coated, about another 5 minutes. Season with ...

    The decadent, borderline sinful combination of bacon and blue cheese is one I use sparingly, but with the season of dinner parties upon us, I can’t think of a better reason to break it out. On another night, try dressing up the sprouts with for toasted walnuts, cranberries, maple syrup and a touch of balsamic; think savory dessert…
    Ingredients:
    1 pound Brussels sprouts, halved or chopped
    4-5 strips thick-cut bacon
    1 tablespoon butter
    1 small onion, diced
    2 cloves garlic, chopped
    1 ounce blue cheese crumbles
    Salt and pepper to taste
    Directions:
    Heat a large skillet over medium-high and cook bacon until crispy. Remove and let drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
    Reserve less than 1 tablespoon of the fat from the pan and add butter. Sauté the onions for ...

    Gorgonzola is a veined Italian blue cheese, made from unskimmed cow's and/or goat's milk.
    Contrary to popular belief, Gorgonzola, or blue cheese does NOT contain gluten. These days, blue cheese is no longer made with mold from stale bread as a starter, as it was once upon a time. The molds used to make commercial Gorgonzola and blue cheese are isolated for purity, and cultured in sterile conditions. They are gluten-free. That means that most people with celiac disease and gluten intolerance are free to eat most all blue cheeses.
    To celebrate that fact, I recently prepared a delicious beet salad with Gorgonzola, pear and arugula, which is one of my summer favorites. I just couldn't wait for summer to get started.
    This recipe makes a tasty, refreshing salad that will turn heads...
