Gluten Free & Vegan Apple Cinnamon Gummy Bears

A fun one in the kitchen today courtesy of some homemade gummy bears! I found the recipe in the Bakerita cookbook by Bakerita and of course opted for the cinnamon add-on! This one uses local cider from Apple Hill too. Full honesty, I had to make this one twice because I missed the “tips” note…

Gluten Free Chicken Pad Thai

I’m a little behind schedule on my self-imposed #22NewGFRecipesIn2022 challenge, but we’ll get there. Tonight in the kitchen was Chicken Pad Thai made in one pot — the Instant Pot! The recipe was in their app and I just made GF substitutions and added extra protein. Would I make it again, absolutely. I had to…

Tomato Sauce

Earlier this week I decided on a whim to take some of the tomatoes in my fridge and whip up some tomato sauce. Forgetting that I’d made tomato paste during my #50NewGFRecipesIn2020 challenge, it took way longer than I thought it would and definitely should be a weekend activity and not a post workday recipe….

Gluten Free Recipe Pantry Staples

I do a lot of gluten free baking and cooking so there are some things I keep stocked up in my pantry year-round. Whether you’re just getting started on your gluten free journey or you’ve been at it for a while, I hope this list can be helpful. So in my home, everything is 100%…

Folsom Farmers Market Finds

I can only speak to the Midtown and Folsom Farmers Markets, but both have some great non-produce gluten free options. Today I stopped by the Folsom Farmers Market which is open on Saturdays from 8am-1pm year round. There are two specific, dedicated gluten free local businesses that I want to call out as fantastic. If/when…

Gluten Free Parmesan Crusted Salmon

Long time, no new recipe. Between the Sacramento heat and just life, I’ve been falling back on my old staples. Plus after my #50NewGFRecipesIn2020 and #30NewGFRecipesIn2021 challenges, I’m having to get even more creative in using similar proteins or ingredients in new twisty ways. So up tonight, I made a parmesan crusted tilapia recipe from…

Gluten Free Honey Garlic Chicken

I’ve been falling back on old staple recipes for the past few weeks, but I wanted something new and packed with flavor tonight. I had some chicken defrosted so a did a quick Google for a new recipe to try out and found one for honey garlic chicken from @anewdawnn and just subbed for GF…

Gluten Free Bread Machine Loaf

Tried a new bread machine recipe yesterday from Marcia on All Recipes. Definitely calling it a win. Similar ingredients to the main recipe I have been using, with different ratios, oils, etc., so it’s a totally different taste and texture. Super light, but again, not a major rise. I think the crust could be a…

Gluten Free Cinnamon Granola

I’m very much a mid-day snack person, and typically my go-to’s include a bar, nuts, seeds and if I have any, GF granola, just for a little pick me up during the work day. Since finding any in the store is hit or miss, both for availability and GF options, I knew someone had likely…

Gluten Free Matzo

It’s the time of year where if I was still in New York and wasn’t gluten free, I’d be having matzo with everything. Since being GF, I typically find a box every other year at a grocery store and it hits the spot on its own, with a bit of peanut butter or a spread…
