Not sure what possessed me since it was beautifully warm today, but I made a

Burgundy Beef Stew

Brazilian cheese rolls

and the neighboring farm has

Fresh Strawberries --yum

Hubs was golfing and I was cleaning the house all day long (oh, all right, I was NOT, I was skyping with people in California and Hawaii and sunning myself on a lounge chair. I need my Vitamin D) B)

Are you up for making your own Ranch dressing? You can make it dairy free:

Dressings and vinaigrettes take about 3 minutes to make and are yummimer, anyway. :P

Will post re gastrique. You would probably enjoy a recipe for Blackberry Chipotle Fool! It is divine.

What is Bagna Cauda?

It is a glorious Italian warm sauce with olive oil, garlic and anchovies. Don't be frightened off by the anchovies - they just provide lovely saltiness and great texture. Awesome with grilled veg or bread or even drizzled over grilled meats and fish.

Do you need recipes for blackberry jams or sauces or vinegar?

notme Experienced

thanx, love2 - blackberry + chipotle??? i'm game; bring it! :lol:

since i am too lazy to post every day, last week we had:

chicken & mandarin stir fry w/rice and chinese cabbage salad (with sweet n salty roasted slivered almonds and sesame seeds def better than the toasted ramen noodles the recipe calls for!)

bang-bang shrimp

rice noodles

steamed broccoli

cheeseburgers!

garden salad (w/kroger brand salad dressing - one of the less expensive brands that uses canola oil instead of soy, which i try to stay away from - the russian flavor :) )

ONION RINGS and they came out perfect - husband couldn't stop eating them - doctored up a tempura recipe with REDBRIDGE LOLOL

cottage cheese

stromboli :D

tomato, mozzerella, red onion & fresh basil salad w/balsamic vinegarette

that's it unless you count "bring your own turkey samwich" for the rest of the week as i was teaching vbs at the church :)

PS - gluten-free LOVER - if you have a blender or a food processor (OR i am lucky enough to have one of those bullet shaped blenders which works soooo well) it's almost ridiculously easy to make your own salad dressings - throw whatever you want into your blender with your acid (citrus, vinegar, etc) and some olive or canola oil and blend the *hail* out of it, salt & pepper, viola! better than any store brand. plus, it will store in the friger for a while - i was just being lazy the other night ;) for the steamed broccoli, i made a tarragon-mustard vinegarette and people are begging for the recipe. i never measure, so they are outta luck!! lolz!! oh, and pps if you are subbing for dairy, watch out for soy - lots of us react to soy and it tends to mimic glutened symptoms. good luck!

yums - looks dee-licious!! yes, vinegar please :) i'm going down there later today (with my trusty franken-mower to mow the way! lolz - these are wild berries) so let me see what the harvest yields. also have 7 heads of cabbage to fool with this weekend. :blink:

i better get off the computer, hahaha :D

edited to say: how about wine? anybody know how to make blackberry wine?

Here it is. Make sure you get the chipotle without gluten - the brands here in Canada contain gluten so I make my own chile in adobo...

See, hon--I told you this would get easier! And you're being schooled by some real masters here!! It's like going to the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) for free! (or the Canadian equivalent)

Glad to see you're doing better. ;)

and NO croutons!! :lol:

How did your consomme turn out?

Excellent! You are more than welcome. Food is one of my passions and it is exciting for me to see others interested in it as well. :)

I did a quick tomato sauce with zucchini and put it on spiral corn pasta

and fresh parmesan.

Earlier I made Vietnamese fresh rolls so that will probably be my snack later.

I had leftover chebe with leftover artichoke dip for dinner last night. Artichoke dip was a little too heavy on the artichoke, wound up eating the 'dip' around the big chunks. Still learnin! Oh, and fresh cantaloupe. Really good one, too.

BTW, for those who can have it, the cheesy chebe, when made with shredded mozz, garlic powder, and left covered in the pan for at least an hour after being formed and shaped, winds up baking up much softer than when made with hard cheese and baked right away. VERY good for pizza! Very close to the Against the Grain products. Needs herbs though because the mozz is very mild. Learned that by accident when all I had was mozzarella and was pulled away from the kitchen so had to wait to bake them. Don't you love happy accidents? Looks like I'm making pizza tomorrow night! Think I'm going out for dinner tonight, so it will either be sweet potato fries and fried chicken, or a steak sandwich and regular fries. Decisions, decisions...

yes, I do!! :)

Thanks for the tip, Bun. I'll do that next time!

I use the Chebe mixes sometimes and I love the ATG stuff, so Thankyew veddy much, Ma'am!!! Last time, I made that white pesto pizza and topped it with all the vegs left in the fridge, (roasted peppers, shallots, asparagus tips, portabellas) and it was crazy good.

thank you! it looks delicious :) now that you mention it, the last two times i was supposed to use chipotles in adobo, i chickened out! (because of the vinegar? i think?) that may be something worth making myself (while i got the canner out already....)

almost every year (for the past 15 years, once or twice we were out of town) i volunteer to help with the vbs at our church. i *usually* provide the supper, clean up after everyone has eaten, ta-daaa i am done. one or two years i helped with the crafts and was teacher's helper. this is the first year i was actually teaching so i was a little out of my comfort zone. i was surprised that i did pretty well - guess i can fool 6-8 yr olds lolz

anyways:

made pizza yesterday :)

tonight it is open-faced roast beef sandwiches w/tri-mushroom bordelaise

more steamed broccoli w/tarragon mustard vinegarette

oooh - and we actually grew a cauliflower! i'm so excited! :D

I love that pesto pizza. I discovered it when I was unable to eat tomatos for a year (travesty!) and fell in love with it. I put onion and sausage on top of it. The tomato sauce one is ok but just tastes like any regular pizza. That pesto one is just outstanding. I plan on trying to replicate it with chebe. Oh, I love Chebe.....

Speaking of which, dinner tonight was Chebe pigs in a blanket (known around here as Chebe dogs) and fresh cucumber with my homemade yogurt ranch dressing. Mmmmm...

      According to research, consuming gluten can potentially trigger sudden mood swings and increased irritability in children, particularly those with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, making them more likely to have tantrums or display behavioral issues; this is because gluten can trigger an immune response in the body, potentially impacting brain function and neurotransmitter levels.  When my son was diagnosed in 1976 when he was weaned his doctor told us that at 5 years old his kindergarden teacher would beg us to put him on Ritalin.  And so it did happen.  My son was on Ritalin though high school.  In the morning he was a devil who could not put on his socks. Half an hour after the morning dose he was an angel wanting to help mom get ready.  Talk about Jekyll and Hyde! Dr Danel Amen could be a good resource for you.

      Yes, it certainly can! My daughter has a reaction from just playing with Playdough. She doesn't get GI symptoms at first, just psychological mostly. It can get really bad. It's like night/day behavior. My daughter is eight, but started showing signs around 6.

      The easiest way to remember the difference between the cholesterol types is HDL;   H=healthy equals healthy (omega 3, 7, limit 6 & 9 MCFA'S =Medium Chain Fatty Acids. 3= coconut oil, 7= sunflower oil, avocado. The higher your HDL the healthier you are & less likely to experience strokes, clogged arteries Etc. You can even use cold expeller pressed coconut oil on your skin and that is the best kind of coconut oil to eat as well. You want your HDL much higher than your LDL, it will help you stay healthy.   LDL;    L=Lousy. Meat fats, processed fats.  The higher your LDL is the more likely you will have strokes, clogged artery is, heart disease, fatty liver.   Then there's lipids... they are the culprit to be blamed for many heart attacks and things like that they are very small round particles that transport fats. You can have a low overall cholesterol reading and most of it be healthy cholesterol and have a ton of lipids and there's nothing you can do to change the lipid count. High number of lipids is very dangerous.   I'm going on statins is extremely dangerous if you ask me it's just completely my opinion, because I have seen so many of my elderly friends bleed to death internally because of the statins. I mean you wouldn't take all the oil and grease out of your car or a motorcycle and then try to drive it that way would you? You see that's what statins do they remove all of your bodies fats and it doesn't matter whether it's healthy fats or a lousy fats. It removes all of them and then your body can't function properly. You have to have fats to keep your skin supple and to stay warm. Your body also needs fats to digest & process certain nutrients, amino acids & vitamins.   Your brain is composed of fat so is that something you really want to remove with a pill every morning and night?   The thing about statins is that they also make the blood vessels and capillaries permeable. So this is how my friends who were on cardiac medication for a long time and statins ended up bleeding internally to death.   If you want to make sure that your heart is healthy, take odorless garlic at night and magnesium, vitamin K & calcium.

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.
