Summer Vegetable AuGratin Not being a vegetable gardener (or a gardener of any sort) yet loving everything that a garden delivers, I have the utmost respect and admiration for those who do. We received a beautiful display of tomatoes, peppers, and chili’s from a friend’s garden and the colors were a reminder how beautiful nature’s…
Peach Glazed Pork Cutlets My sister brought over a beautiful basket of fresh peaches yesterday. One bite of these perfectly ripe beauties gave me goose bumps they were so good! When peaches are in season, there’s nothing better. It’s no surprise I had to incorporate them into our dinner that evening. Peach glazed pork cutlets…
Banana Chocolate Chip Cake Ok, I admit, I had a piece for breakfast with my coffee. Sinfully good. This cake has been a favorite of ours for years and my daughter asks for it each birthday. She asked for cupcakes this year, and the word was they were amazing. Yes, they were glutenous and I…
Salmon and Shrimp in Basil Butter Wine Sauce One of my favorite places to eat is Biaggi’s. They have a full gluten free menu of which I’ve only ordered two items in the dozens of times I’ve been there. The reason? I order their Salmon and Shrimp Milanese most every time. I absolutely love it…
Better Than Sex Cake Ok, so the name is up for debate, but this long-time standing crowd pleaser is no longer forbidden on a gluten free diet. The first note of appreciation goes to General Mills, again, with their Devils Food Chocolate Cake Mix, which makes this indulgent dessert as easy to make as it…
Penne Pasta We’ve been grilling most every night this summer and love the smokey goodness it adds to our meals. But I’ve been craving an Italian pasta meal baked in the oven with bubbling cheese, and this meal delivered! The penne pasta has little ridges that capture the sauce and trap the veggies and turkey. …
Layered Taco Dip A recent happy hour at the cabin with neighbors prompted me to make this classic favorite appetizer that’s naturally gluten free. The hearty refried beans meet the creamy blend of sour cream, cream cheese, and Mexican cheese and it’s all topped off with fresh green onions and firm grape tomatoes. Serve with…
Cherry Almond Muffins What a great combination, cherries and almonds. These moist and flavorful muffins are filled with the goodness of sweet-tart dried cherries, nutty almonds, and protein-packed Greek vanilla yogurt. And if that isn’t tempting enough, I added a layer of streusel on both the bottom and the top for a sweet crunchy buttery…
Parmesan Steak Fries Two of my favorites together…Parmesan and Potatoes. Yum. These steak fries are healthy too…baked not fried. Ready for one more wonderful reason to make these? The baking sheet is lined with parchment paper so there’s no clean up. Yep, these are a must. Crisp, savory, tender, and delicious. Ingredients: Russet potatoes (figure…
Turkey Taco’s My sister has been at me to get this recipe online as it’s become one of her favorites. We shared a weekend at our cabin in northern MN with her and her husband and this was on the lunch menu one afternoon. I created this recipe for the 4th of July Holiday…
Sweet Smokey Planked Salmon I love salmon so it was no surprise that I spun together a new recipe for a birthday celebration. I also love birthdays and the joke is that we celebrate for a week straight. How fun is that? This recipe was a combination of sweet and smokey flavors infused into the…
Lobster Scampi Absolutely decadent. A good friend of mine is from Maine and she sent live lobster’s for my birthday this past weekend. What a beautifully decadent surprise! They arrived in a cooler-type box labeled “Live Seafood – Open Immediately”. Being we had previously scheduled dinner plans that evening, I made a phone call to…
