    Homemade Gluten-free Ranch Style Beans

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    I am a person who loves Ranch Style Beans. I love them as a side with BBQ, I love them with Mexican dishes. I know that some people say that Ranch Style Beans are safe for people with celiac disease, but I also know that plenty of folks prefer to make their own food, just to be sure.

    Below is a recipe for a homemade version of Ranch Style brand beans that is sure to please even the pickiest bean lovers. These beans go great with rice and make a fine side anytime you barbecue or grill.

    Photo: CC--benchiladaIngredients:
    1 pound dry pinto beans
    5 cups cold water
    2 teaspoons gluten-free chicken bouillon
    4 ounces ham hocks
    6 ancho chiles, stems and seeds removed
    4 cloves of garlic, minced
    1 medium onion, chopped
    ¼ cup tomato puree (add in the last 30 minutes of cooking)
    ¼ teaspoon liquid smoke
    1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar, divided
    ½ teaspoons red chili powder
    ½ teaspoon paprika
    1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
    1 teaspoon black pepper
    1 teaspoon cumin
    ½ teaspoon oregano
    1 cup of water
    1 teaspoon seasoning salt (add in the last 30 minutes of cooking)


    Directions:
    Soak the beans covered in water overnight.

    Drain and rinse the soaked beans.

    Heat a cast-iron skillet to medium high, cook the anchos on each side for a couple of minutes, until they start to bubble and pop, turn off the heat and fill the skillet with warm water. Let chilis soak until soft and re-hydrated, which should happen after half an hour or so.

    In the same pot you use for the beans, heat up a teaspoon of canola oil and cook the onions for ten minutes on medium. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.

    Toss cooked onions and garlic in a blender and add the tomatoes, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, paprika, cumin, oregano, water and hydrated ancho chilis. Puree until smooth.

    Add the pinto beans and broth to the pot and stir in the chili puree. On high, bring the pot to a boil and then cover; turn the heat down to low and simmer for two and a half hours, stirring occasionally.

    When you're satisfied that the beans are done, salt and pepper to taste.

    Feeds four to six.

    The recipe calls for tomatoes and chile puree but only lists tomatoe puree in the ingredients. I'm confused.

    Judy--The recipe says: Toss cooked onions and garlic in a blender and add the tomatoes, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, paprika, cumin, oregano, water and hydrated ancho chiles. Puree until smooth.

     

    That is the "chili puree."

    Fried chicken is undeniably one of my very favorite things to eat. It is also one of the things I did away with when I adopted a gluten-free diet. However, when I discovered the joys of breading and frying with crushed gluten-free Rice Chex cereal recently, I went a bit nuts and began to test the results on all of my old, and long-missed favorites.
    For my money, chicken, like fish, tastes best when soaked in brine for a spell, then marinated in buttermilk.
    This recipe marinates the chicken overnight, then fries it up in oil, and finishes it in the oven for a crispy texture.
    The recipe makes 6-8 servings, and goes great with mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, beans, cole slaw, or any other side dish you care to serve.
    Ingredients:
    1½ tablespoons salt - for brine
    1 quart ...

    When I was growing up, meatloaf was one of the dishes that made a regular appearance at our table. The rich, tomato-based sauce complimented the meatloaf, and was sure to bring smiles to the family table.
    Taking a meatloaf sandwich to school the next day was something of a rite of passage, and a delicious one at that.
    Here's a simple recipe for a meatloaf that is easy to make, easy on the wallet, and sure to please kids and adults alike.
    Ingredients:
    1½ pounds ground beef 1 egg 1 onion, chopped 1 cup milk 1 cup dried gluten-free bread crumbs 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 tablespoons gluten-free mustard (I use Annie's, made with apple cider vinegar) ½ cup ketchup salt and pepper to taste Directions:
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

    Celiac.com 05/07/2013 - Pork chops are one of my reliable standbys, one of my go-to dishes when I need to make a delicious dinner in a pinch. Any way you care to make them, I'm usually happy to eat a pork chop.
    Recently, I decided I needed a bit more splash in my recipe mix, so I looked around that put a new spin on an old favorite. The result made me smile.
    It's spring, so apricots and peaches will soon be appearing at a stores near you. Yes, this recipe can be made with peaches, just use less peach than you would apricot, but otherwise, prepare the same way.
    This recipe serves four, so scale accordingly.
    Ingredients:
