    Oh, yum! I love these ideas! I am going to have to try that, and I like the idea of pureeing the vegetables as well. We like mexican lasagna...cut up corn tortillas, and layer in a lasagna pan with refried beans, corn, olives, black beans, onion, covered with homemade enchelada sauce (big can tomatoes plus can green chilis plus salt, puree in the blender...

    I have photos of these...if you want to see them send me a private message. We made these the other day...they are so fun! They are a bit of a cross between biscuits and cookies, in that they are sort of fluffy and light in texture but hold their shape like a cookie. One of the best gluten-free sugar cookie recipes I've attempted! They can be done gluten...

    My son (11 yr old) has GERD...acid reflux disease. He gets much worse if he gets glutened, but unmedicated it's still pretty bad even w/out the gluten. GERD can cause frequent tummy aches, vomiting, picky eating (or reduced eating) and weight loss. When does she throw up mostly? Does it happen mostly in the evening? After meals? Does she eat a little...

    Mostly not...we're pretty busy so if something is going to take a long time I'll schedule it on a day when we've got time. I think that you get used to things and they don't take as long any more...for example I used to feel like it would take a long time to grill things, so we didn't do it much. Now we've got a gas grill and have gotten the process down...

    Monday: Let's try a little breakfast for dinner! Eggs Benedict Skillet. Cook up a package of Southern Style hash browns with a chopped onion (Ore-Ida brand is gluten-free). Add a package of diced ham or Canadian bacon (Bar S brand, Hormel, or Boar's Head). Cook it until the hash browns are browned, turn down to keep warm. In another skillet, bring some water...

    Sigh. I guess you can copy and paste? Rats!
  8. RissaRoo
    OK, so I guess I can't figure this out! Any suggestions? One more try and then I"m out of ideas...

    OK, hopefully the pictures worked! Here's the recipe: Well, it's not such a stretch to make these gluten free, I can't think of any reason why stuffed mushrooms need to have gluten in them (although I *have* eaten at restaurants where they did...breadcrumbs I guess...so maybe it is unusual). Dairy free is a little more challenging but can be done...

    I love Cooking Free. Could def. use some nice pictures, but still...it's got great recipes!

    I love polenta too! I've used it in several recipes, and once I made some polenta crackers. Yum! I was thinking about pesto pizza, too. Mmmmmm! LOL...I actually DO have a photo of pepperoni pizza! Homemade, though...not from Pier 49. I'm not going to use it this week, though...I'll wait 'till it appears as a recipe on the 'menu' next time I make...

    Oops...I copied this right from my blog and didn't remember to take off the first part off. I probably won't be able to post photos here...maybe one or two but honestly it's sort of a pain to have to save the photos to a different server and then download them here. ( I wish that you could just post them directly from your computer! Also, the links don...

    Last week, providentially, what we ate for dinner had very little to do with what I had planned on my menu. So this week, I can put some of the meals from last week up and have a few photos to post too! I'll put the photos up with complete recipes later this week. I think it will help being ahead on the menus I post, that way I can try new ideas out and maybe...

    I made this last night for guests! It was sooooo good. I tossed gluten-free pasta with the pesto, then put grilled chicken strips, grilled asparagus spears, and fresh grape tomatoes on top. Yummy! We're eating leftovers for lunch today. Thanks for the recipe!
  15. RissaRoo
    Oh wow! That sounds soooo good. I am going to try this, maybe even tonight! I think it would be good tossed with some grilled chicken, too...mmmmm!
  16. RissaRoo
    Yea! Good to hear first hand how that cauliflower is. I can't wait to try it! The package of noodles I bought (De Boles brand) says they are oven ready and you can just layer and cook. I am happy about that...I hate cooking the noodles first because the gluten-free kind *always* seem to stick together and cause problems. If you wanted, you could use...

    This Week's Gluten Free Menu Well, this week is a continuation of last week, sadly. In fact, it's a combination of the "lazy" menu and the "payday isn't until next week" menu. However, once again I've got some fun vegetables in the fridge and a freezer full of meat (this time because we had a guy here Saturday pitching an organic meat delivery service.....

    Thanks, Puddy! She's actually doing really well, I can't believe how fast those antibiotics worked.

    Just to fill you in....Last week, my dd came down with pneumonia...which she caught (didn't know you *could* catch it!) from my nephew. Several other family members came down with it at the same time. She's pretty much back to 100% now but besides being exhausted I've got too many irons in the fire right now, so this week's menu is pretty lazy! This...

    Wow, it was good to read these posts because my tummy has been driving me nuts! I used to have such a great flat tummy, now I start out normal in the morning and some days by bedtime it's like I'm 6 month pg! For me, I know that lactose is a culprit and I can pretty much plan on serious bloating if I have too much dairy (a tiny bit a couple of times a week...

    Forgot to add... appetizers....if she likes velveeta, you could do a dip where you melt Velveeta and mix in salsa. It's so yummy with chips (but addictive!). For grown-ups, stuffed mushrooms are fun. I get some large mushrooms (15-20 work for this recipe, depending on size and how full you stuff them) and wash and stem them. Then chop the stems finely...

    I second the tacos idea...or a pasta bar, where you could put several types of gluten-free cooked pasta out and several choices of sauce (an alfredo, a marinara, some cheese sauce etc.). They you could put out some cooked chicken, peas, bits of broccoli, bacon bits, chopped onion, chopped olive etc in bowls for toppings. Put out a big green salad for a...

    Sweetfudge, you made my day! :D
  24. RissaRoo
    Oh, yum! That sounds wonderful. I would think you could make ice cream with Almond milk just substituting the regular milk for almond, you can make it with other milks w/out a problem. I'd add something creamy to it, though, because it will turn out like ice *milk*, thinner and more icy and less creamy if that makes sense. We made some with rice milk...

    Scott, thanks for taking the time to post! I totally understand the need to protect the site from Spam and I appreciate the fact that it is so comfortably free of spam. Thanks for the work you've put into all of this! It would be great if you could tone down that ad warning, though. I was really taken aback by it and it seems like others have had this...
