    Looks good but I believe ranch dressing has modified food starch. If so, then it is not Gluten Free.

    Modified food starch is gluten-free.

    It doesn’t really feel like autumn until there’s a big bowl of pumpkin seeds waiting on the kitchen table. They’re best fresh but can be stored in the freezer for up to a month. I prefer my seeds on the spicy side, but this recipe can easily be toned down without one of the chili powders. A sweeter version with honey, cinnamon and brown sugar is great on yogurt or cereal.
    Ingredients:
    2 cups pumpkin seeds, rinsed and dried
    1½ tablespoons canola oil
    2 teaspoons garlic powder
    1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
    ½ teaspoon ancho chili powder
    ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper
    Directions:
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    In a large bowl, toss pumpkin seeds with oil and spices. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes. Seeds should be a light golden brown.

    Good, spicy chicken wings are a heavy favorite in my world, and another tasty favorite that I've had to skip when dining out, due to the fact that they are nearly always dredged in flour before cooking.
    This recipe will help you recreate the taste of your favorite restaurant wings. They are sure to please your guests, and make a big hit at the next showing of Monday night football, or your weekend sporting events.

    Ingredients:
    24 chicken wings
    1 cup tapioca flour
    ½ teaspoon paprika
    ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
    ½ teaspoon salt

    ¼ teaspoon onion powder
    ½ cup Louisiana Hot Sauce (gluten-free)
    ½ cup butter
    1 dash ground black pepper
    oil for deep frying
    Directions:
    In a small bowl mix together the tapioca flour, paprika, cayen...
