Gluten-free

Mashed Cauliflower

I’ve been in a huge mashed potato mood lately. Seriously people, I have a problem! I could easily eat them every day. Instead of loading up on mashed potatoes, I’ve been trying to keep things lighter, so have been making a big pot of mashed cauliflower at least once a week. I’ve eaten so much […]

If you’ve got turkey, you’ve gotta have gravy. Am I right? I’d also like to say that if you’ve made a turkey, then you’d be crazy not to use the drippings to make that gravy. If you make my Lemon Fennel Roast Turkey, set aside those drippings, and then use them to make that gravy…oh […]

This post is brought to you by Harmons Grocery. I know, I know, you’re thinking “Gluten free slow cooker pot roast? Rachael, isn’t a pot roast naturally gluten free?” Well yes, and no.

Sometimes when we visited my grandparents in Utah we would make a trip to Hires Big H, a great little Utah-based burger joint, that also happens to serve my all-time favorite cherry limeade. Other people loved going to Hires for their homemade […]

I am currently neck-deep in preparations for cooking at a church girls’ camp the first week in June . . . let’s just say I haven’t been getting a whole lot of sleep. But it is going to be FUN and the food is going to be great (knock on wood)!!! Somehow I have to […]

May 1st, the day the Empire State building officially opened 83 years ago, the day the movie Citizen Kane premiered 73 years ago, the day the first KMART store opened 52 years ago, and the day Elvis Presley married Priscilla Ann Beaulieu 47 years ago, among many other events—who knew today was such an important […]

“Ufurahie chakula chako!” (the Swahili equivalent of “Bon appétit”) is what you would hear if you happened to be lucky enough to pull up a seat at the dinner table in Miriam Kinunda’s home. Miriam, born and raised in Tanzania, a country located in the eastern part of Africa, is a blogger and owner of […]

If you had told me 6 months ago that a chocolate dessert that was free of gluten, dairy, and refined sugars could be as decadent as its gluten, dairy, and refined sugar full counterpart, I would have politely nodded and totally not have believed you. But in the past few months I have taken my preconceived […]
