Menu Plan Monday
2007-10-01 16:40:00 This weekend was beautiful in Raleigh. The Fall air finally blew in and it was wonderful to be outside with the boys. We went to the state farmer’s market Saturday and Fall was evident there too. There were already rows and rows of pumpkins waiting to be chosen by little hands. ...

Buckwheat Sweet Potato Quick Bread
2007-09-28 04:13:00 I saw some good-looking sweet potatoes (Carolina Ruby) at Whole Foods today and decided that it was finally time to bake something for Gluten A Go Go’s Bread Baking Bonanza blog event for National Celiac Awareness Month and the World Day of Bread, October 16th.

Pesto Penne with Kale, Bacon and Mushrooms
2007-09-25 20:19:00 I am a traditional Southern woman. I cook my greens in pork fat and serve them with sweet tea. However, if my father-in-law asks, I did not deep-fry anything today. He likes to tease me. I felt like cooking this afternoon, so I made my dinner early. I am very ... More About: Mushrooms , Dinner , Pasta , Gluten Free , Celiac
Menu Plan Monday
2007-09-24 18:21:00 It’s Gluten-Free Menu Plan Monday again! I have to say, I am having a lot of fun posting my menu every week. Even if it does take away some of my mystery…ha ha. So, this week I am scrubbing my house from top to bottom doing some fall cleaning. Yesterday, I ...
A Shortcake Dressed Up for Fall
2007-09-21 23:42:00 I made the most delicious ginger shortcake today with whipped cream and pears. It tasted so much like fall. This is now one of my favorite gluten-free desserts. It is simple but not ordinary! I enjoyed every single bite of this cake. My husband’s favorite cake is a spice cake ... More About: Gluten Free , Celiac , Desserts , Cakes , Easy
Breakfast: A Gluten-Free Round-up
2007-09-20 06:24:00 In the wee hours of morning, bleary-eyed mommies everywhere search for a nutritious breakfast for their little ones. This is harder for gluten-free mommies because they can’t rely on Cheerios first thing in the morning. Jude has become pickier these days and that meant I had to reevaluate breakfast. Clearly, I needed ... More About: Breakfast , Free , Round Up , Gluten Free , Celiac
A Simple Paella
2007-09-19 18:48:00 Paella is a wonderful way to utilize leftover meat and veggies. In this simpler version, paella translates very well to a weeknight dish. Traditional paella consists of olive oil, rice, and saffron. You can throw in vegetables, seafood, or meat. Mine is missing the olive oil tonight because I omitted stir-frying ...

Menu Plan Monday
2007-09-17 20:16:00 I am a little behind today, but I just finished my menu and shopping for the week. I went out of town for the weekend, so I will be playing catch-up all day.

Pumpkin Pancakes
2007-09-14 03:34:00 We decided to kick-off the fall a little early this year with pumpkin pancakes. Since the discovery of Pamela’s baking mix, we eat pancakes fairly regularly around here, but I occasionally like to mix things up and make my own- cornmeal, pumpkin, or banana nut. With that in mind, I decided to use ... More About: Breakfast , Gluten Free , Celiac , Pumpkin , Pancakes
Quinoa with Spinach, Mushrooms, Jalapeņo, and Cilantro
2007-09-12 01:54:00 Since going gluten-free, I have heard a lot of great things about Quinoa. Considered, “the mother grain” by the Incas, Quinoa has all the essential amino acids, unlike wheat which has to be paired with a legume to be a complete protein. However, I have never cooked it until tonight! Now, I ... More About: Vegetarian , Mexican , Mushrooms , Gluten Free , Celiac

Ten Common Sense Tips to Combat Anemia
2007-09-09 03:49:00 For many of us, anemia was the first clue that something was wrong. Whether or not we are celiacs, mommies, or both we all have an interest in keeping our iron levels normal. Once you become anemic, it can be so hard to get your iron stores back up! I became anemic at ... More About: Sense , Pregnancy , Tips , Gluten Free , Celiac
Baked Eggplant Zucchini Spaghetti
2007-09-07 05:24:00 My little boy has been teething, which has ruined his appetite. I have been trying to get him to eat by making his favorite things. Tonight, I concocted this casserole because he will normally eat anything as long as it includes tomato sauce and cheese. That is my secret to get Jude ...

Almond Orange Marmalade Muffins
2007-09-05 20:35:00 I made almond orange marmalade muffins this morning in lieu of banana bread and they were so yummy. I based them on an old recipe I had from Smuckers with several alterations. By the way, Smuckers is wishy-washy about whether/which jams, marmalades, and jellies are gluten-free. Make your own or buy a brand you trust. ...

A Tribute to Bette Hagman
2007-09-03 23:21:00 My first few months gluten-free were pretty typical. A few months after I went gluten-free, I got pregnant for the first time. A new diet and a new pregnancy were not a good mix for me. I was starving! I had not figured out the gluten-free thing yet at all. ... More About: Gluten Free , Celiac , Tribute , Tribu

2007-09-03 18:26:00 I have gotten several requests from my readers for menu ideas. You just can’t be gluten-free and happy without a menu plan.

Celiac Diagnosis Challenges and then Dessert
2007-08-16 21:21:00 For months now, my mom and my sister have been complaining of joint pain, headaches, and fatigue. I told them over and over, “It’s gluten!” I had begun to sound like a broken record and then I am afraid I began to sound like some kind of gluten conspiracy theorist. My ...

Pantry Beef Casserole
2007-08-12 21:48:00 I took a trip today to Whole Foods to restock my gluten-free items. I have a bad habit of looking in other people’s carts in Whole Foods to see if they are also buying gluten-free. I always feel compelled to start a conversation about going gluten-free. I never do, but ... More About: Pasta , Gluten Free , Celiac , Beef , Casserole
Cajun Quiche with Rice Crust
2007-08-05 03:14:00 I finally bought Cooking Light’s Easy Summer Meals that I have been eyeing in the grocery store check out line for weeks now.

Baby
2007-07-18 04:03:00 He’s here! My baby was finally born. After what seemed like such a long wait, the birth was fantastic and very fast! I had a beautiful 9 lb. 4 oz. baby boy. My family of four is finally all here and I couldn’t be happier. My little Jude doesn’t know what ... More About: Baby , Gluten Free , Celiac , Cookies , Desserts
Chocolate Gelato
2007-07-02 03:55:00 Well, I am still pregnant. Unbelievable. There are two reasons for this: 1) Longest gestation EVER or 2) My dates are just really, really wrong. I am guessing it is the latter. That is what I get for having children so close together. So, the baby will come when it ... More About: Gluten Free , Celiac , Desserts , Chocolate , Gelato
?Lighter than Air? Chocolate Cake
2007-06-12 23:43:00 My sister brought this naturally gluten-free cake (no flour) over yesterday to cheer me up. She joked that she brought me a “lighter than air” chocolate cake in hopes that I would feel lighter than air instead of nine months pregnant. HILARIOUS. It is an awesome recipe and it did make me ... More About: Holidays , Gluten Free , Desserts , Cakes , Cake
The ?un? Birthday Cupcakes
2007-06-07 18:50:00 I woke up this morning in the most energized, happy mood! I think the first time I have sat down today has been to write this blog entry.

Chewy Chocolate-Coconut Macaroons
2007-05-30 02:12:00 I found this recipe while thumbing through an old issue (August 2005) of Cooking Light. I adapted it to be gluten-free and here are the results!

Italian Sausage Spaghetti
2007-05-28 02:37:00 I have really been slowing down in these last days of pregnancy. I am cooking fast, easy meals that do not require much thought, energy, and time. My computer is also broken, so I am using my husband’s computer when he is not working. I am hoping my computer can be fixed! ... More About: Pasta , Gluten Free , Celiac , Italian , Sausage
Banana Nut Muffins
2007-05-21 03:05:00 I have been spending a lot of time running after my toddler outside and less time in the kitchen! The weather here is gorgeous and Jude wants to spend all day outdoors.

[Dad?s favorite] School Days Peanut Butter Cookies
2007-05-16 22:01:00 I have been cooking all week, but this has definitely not been reflected on this blog. There have been some failures and some good recipes made, but nothing particularly blogworthy. It is not that a recipe has to be perfect or even complex, but it has to be fabulous- otherwise you could just take ... More About: Holidays , Peanut , School , Gluten Free , Celiac
Black Bottom Cupcakes
More articles from this author:2007-05-14 03:09:00 My friends threw me a baby shower this weekend. All the food was gluten-free! They made recipes that would not be cross-contaminated in their kitchens, like marinated cheeses, dips, and they also served fruit. We really had a good time and I was so touched by everyone’s sensitivity and generosity. It ... More About: Holidays , Black , Gluten Free , Celiac , Desserts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
