Gluten Free Empañadas

Up on the menu tonight is another one that I grew up with my mom making in New York. Back then, she’d make beef empañadas. Now that I don’t eat beef and I can’t eat gluten, they look much different. For starters, there’s no premade dough so that’s where the new recipe comes in. I…

Gluten Free Tortillas

I’m on a roll today. 4 new recipes today towards my #50NewGFRecipesin2020 goal! 🌮 Another new recipe I’ve been wanting to try for ages is DIY tortillas. I followed the @minimalistbaker recipe which only called for three ingredients: 1 cup of masa harina, some salt (I didn’t measure) and 3/4 cup warm water. That’s it! This recipe made 8…

Gluten Free Chicken Nuggets

Up on the menu tonight was another Friday-night craving on a whim. I had defrosted some chicken and wanted chicken nuggets. Easy, right?! Easy – yes. Time consuming as hell, yes! I think I’ll stick with chicken cutlets in the future because it’s much less work with less pieces. I’ll have nuggets for days though…

Gluten Free Meatballs

It’s been a while since my mom made meatballs and if I’m being honest, I’m pretty sure she’s made 99.5% of the fresh meatballs I’ve eaten in my life. (Love you mom!) 🍝 Since I don’t eat red meat and obviously don’t eat gluten, today’s meatballs look a lot different then those of my childhood…

Gluten Free Pizza Pockets

Had a hankering for pizza rolls and I have only seen them in the store twice and never since then… plus it’s still lock down time so made from scratch it is. 🍕 Started with the Gluten Free on a Shoestring pizza dough recipe and needed to add a bit more water. Ingredients 2 cups GF…

Gluten Free Orange Chicken

Finally made this recipe after seeing similar ones online for years. This recipe is super simple and mostly, a set-it and forget meal. 🍊 I serve this with brown or white rice. It typically makes 4-6 servings, so this is a great recipe for meal prep! You can save the extra sauce from the Crockpot…

Gluten Free Potato Pancakes

First time ever making potato pancakes. My mom always used to make these growing up and I was craving a bit of nostalgia. First, I absolute hate peeling anything. It’s just not a skill I typically possess, but today I rocked it! Counting it as a mini-COVID-win. These are tasty and paired with apple sauce,…

Gluten Free Lasagna

Up on the menu tonight was lasagna. I’m typically a baked ziti person and after 90 minutes, I remember why. I used Barilla Gluten Free oven-ready lasagna noodles with tomato sauce, ground turkey, ricotta, mozzarella and Parmesan. If I did this again, I’d definitely use more sauce. I’m not typically a sauce person, but the noodles…

Gluten Free Pan Pizza

Officially back on the “let’s get out of the recipe rut” with a new Pizza recipe. Before you do anything, turn your oven on and preheat to 500 degrees with your pan in the oven to heat a bit. First, combine 200 grams of water, 1 tbsp of sugar (I used organic cane sugar) and…
