Potato and Spinach Enchiladas

Thumbnail image for Potato and Spinach Enchiladas

This is my first time participating in Book of Yum’s Adopt a Gluten-Free Blogger Event. I’ve pondered it before, but then never got around to joining. Mike has been nagging me to stop being lazy and just do it.
Then, a couple days ago, I sent Mike the link the Carrie’s website. I was excited about [...]

I decided a while back that I needed to learn the basics of making casseroles so that I’d have another technique for using up whatever leftovers happened to be around. Mike (as per usual) suggested that the casserole involve fruit. This is what we came up with–not exactly what I think of as a typical [...]

2 ounces dark rum
ginger beer
lime wedge

Fill a highball glass with ice. Add the ginger beer to taste. Garnish with lime wedge.

The Dark and Stormy is “Bermuda’s National Drink.” To [...]

Tempeh Spinach Stuffed Peppers

There we were, shopping for groceries, admiring all the colorful summer produce (at least I was), and there they were, sticking out like a sore thumb: black bell peppers.
Ok, I’ll stop acting like a dork and making up stories out of grocery trips. But they are kinda cool. At least, I’ve never seen or heard [...]

Note from Kalinda: This is a guest post from my sister, Larissa, who also makes gluten-free goodies from time to time.

When we were small children our grandfather would tell us we needed to eat lots of carrots to keep our eyes strong. All of the siblings managed to inherit poor eyesight, but we still love [...]

Basil Fig Pizza

Hannah and Phoebe over at I Heart Kale posted a recipe about a month ago for basil, fig, caramelized onion pizza. I was intrigued and made a mental note to give it a try.
This past weekend Mike’s mom sent us home with some fresh basil from her garden, and when we went for the “just [...]

Goat Cheese Skewers

We were back in St. Louis this past weekend and there was a family get together at Mike’s parent’s house. His aunt brought these as an appetizer. They were delicious and elegant, so I felt I should share.
Since I didn’t actually make these I don’t have an exact recipe but I hope this will suffice.

Pineapple Muffins

My previous pie post spawned out the the desire to use a flour mix we received. Last weekend we received more gluten-free flour from Mike’s brother and sister-in-law. This time we received a bag of Andrea’s Gluten Free Flour Blend. Andrea’s Gluten Free is located in St. Louis, and we enjoy her baked goods anytime [...]

Berry Pie

Mike’s family came to visit us last week so we didn’t do much wheat-free meat-free cooking. We did have lots of fun visiting with everyone though. :) Mike’s dad also has Celiac disease so there’s frequently a lot of food talk. His mom was nice enough to bring us a bag of Meister’s Gluten Free [...]

Homemade Peanut Butter Ice Cream

TheKitchn had a post about peanut butter snacks for the weekend and peanut butter ice cream was included. It was not very hard to convince Mike that we needed to make peanut butter ice cream.
We adapted a David Lebovitz recipe that we’ve used before and followed his instructions for how to make ice cream without [...]

Banana Pizza?

Note from Kalinda: Mike wanted to borrow the blog to share one of his food creations.
Sometimes, Kalinda decides to make things involving radishes or some such. So I’m forced to fend for myself for dinner. Last time that happened, I made a banana pizza. :)
Working on the premise that any meal can be improved by [...]
