I made these for many years with regular flour. When I began eating gluten-free, I thought it would be too hard to convert the recipe. Actually, it wasn’t hard at all to make gluten-free chocolate crackle cookies. The result is a delicious, chocolately, crisp on the outside-gooey on the inside cookie! It’s easy to make […]

San Francisco Foodies: Open Casting Call with Soy Vay
Thank you to Soy Vay for providing complimentary samples for my review. Guess what? I just found out that one of my favorite marinades has a gluten-free option. If you aren’t gluten-free, you really should try the Soy Vay sauces. I used to love them. Use it for chicken skewers or beef skirt steak. Yum. […]
Roasted Red Cabbage
This is in the category of “things you should not assume your kids won’t like”. A friend of mine (thank you Kristen!) served it at dinner a few years ago and I was amazed that my then 5 year old daughter loved it. I really was shocked! However, my then 7 year old ate it […]
Pumpkin Pie Muffins (gluten-free and regular)
There’s not much to say about these delicious muffins! This recipe will be in my cookbook. One of the testers said “My daughter said they tasted like pumpkin pie. And my little guy couldn’t help himself from stealing fistfuls of the ones we were trying to save for his daddy.” You can easily call them […]
Gluten-Free Orange Chicken
This gluten-free orange chicken was born out of a desire to make my daughter happy. When my daughter saw the traditional gluten-containing version while we were out for lunch one day, she looked on in envy. Surely, I believed—after years of adapting recipes for my gluten-free family—the same taste could be achieved without the offending […]
Citizen Chef meals are great for busy people
When I first heard about Citizen Chef, I loved the concept: a meal which is ready to cook (just add the protein), fresh, healthy, and easy. You are eating in 15 minutes. Sounds like my kind of dinner! The bonus is that some of the meals are gluten-free, which is not easy to find. The […]
Gluten-free, dairy-free and egg-free pancakes
Yes, I hit the trifecta on this recipe. I was able to successfully make a pancake without gluten, dairy (in essence, casein) and eggs! It is a vegan, gluten-free pancake. I have been cooking gluten-free for 5 years. That I have figured out. I like to use my own blend (see the recipe for the […]
Gluten Free Chocolate Almond Cake
Gluten-Free Chocolate Almond Cake – Torta Caprese I learned how to make this cake in Italy with Wendy Holloway from Flavor of Italy. She was so sweet to include a gluten-free recipe for me. I have since learned that this style, creamed yolks with sugar added to almond meal and folded with egg whites, is […]
