Gluten-free hamburger buns

November 9, 2008

November 1, 2008

My grandma used to make this chili for family gatherings in the winter, and it is a family favorite. In fact, my cousin once won a Boy Scout chili cook-off with my grandma’s recipe. I have added extra vegetables and spices because Drew and I like the flavor and added healthfulness. This is the perfect [...]

Our gluten-free election party menu

October 30, 2008

We are really excited about this year’s election. So excited in fact, that we are throwing an election party! Rather than have the party be a potluck and not know who is going to bring what glutenous food item, we decided that we would prepare all the snacks and everyone else can just bring their [...]

Drew’s Homemade Gluten-Free Pizza Crust

October 14, 2008

I think the most difficult thing for Crystal to “give up” when she was diagnosed with celiac disease was pizza. Fortunately, we didn’t have to give it up! For awhile we were going the “get pizza anyway we can” route (frozen alternatives and specialty restaurants in other cities), which Crystal has written about previously. But [...]

Grilled tuna steak topped with fruit salsa

October 6, 2008

One of the lessons we have learned about the celiac diet, apart from avoiding gluten, is the importance of eating meals and snacks that are high in fiber (for more on this, check out our sources of gluten-free fiber).

Pineapple & Mango Fruit Salsa

October 5, 2008

For as long as I can remember, I have loved salsas (which may be evident if you’re a regular reader of this blog!). Fruit salsas are particularly refreshing, as the sweet fruit balances perfectly with the spicy peppers. This fruit salsa recipe is simple to make at home, and should be very easy to replicate [...]

Drew’s Semi-Famous Guacamole

October 1, 2008

Guacamole has been one of my favorite dips for many years. This particular recipe got its start after Crystal and I visited her friend in New York City a few years ago (pre-gluten free). Crystal had always hated avocados, and I told her it was because she had never had them prepared the correct way. [...]
