I have never seen that! Looks great!

 

Maybe it's a Utah thing? It's made in Salt Lake. It's just one of our ways of having a "beer" with our dinner since we don't drink.

I thought it might be fun if we had a thread where we shared what we're cooking up for dinner:) I am not an experienced cook so coming up with gluten free menus for me and my boyfriend feels like a ch

I'm having Tinkyada brown rice spaghetti-style pasta with doctored-up ready-made spaghetti sauce that I've had stashed in my freezer in single serving sizes. Yum! This time I'm trying the quick cook

This weekend I made Gumbo for the first time, from Emeril's cook book. I used Bisquick gluten-free Mix and it made a roux just fine, although I got a bit impatient stirring and stirring....but well w

Copy-cat! That's my plan for dinner Sunday except it's gonna have some chicken and pepperoni on it. :-)

As for tonight, it's gonna be pasta with broccoli, bell peppers, onion, red apple, and chicken. Not sure yet what sauce I'm gonna do.

I made skillet lasagna for lunch today. Yum! My Meijer's now carries Meijer store brand gluten-free pasta and they have a lasagna cuts variety. It is only $1.99 per 16 oz. (it's non-gmo corn pasta)

Your pasta calls for a wine sauce or maybe pesto :D.

I wish we had Meijer's.  Our store carries some gluten-free pasta, spaghetti and penne I think but it's $4 or 5/box.  I prefer Vermicelli personally. Hopefully I can find that some day.

I do have some wine at the house...

As for pasta, I get Ronzoni or Kroger brand and it's $2-$3 a box, but it's just spaghetti, penne, or Ronzoni has a twisty noodle.

HA!  My husband also likes to discourage my use of knives.  What did you bread your fried chicken with?  I use gluten-free bisquik and it turns out good, but there is always room to improve.

 

Tonight is grilled chicken, sweet potato fries, and green beans.  

i used flour and starch - but i cook like the swedish chef:  herdy deredy derrdy herr - brown rice flour, tapioca starch, the rest of a box of hodgson mill ap baking mix, some potato starch, s&p, garlic powder, paprika (dip in egg, then flour, let it sit for a little bit to goo up, then egg and flour again)  herrdy derr lolz throw salt over shoulder..   :)

 

last night was white brats and sauerkraut w/pierogies for the wheateaters 

 

(edited to add 'seasonings')

I found a recipe a few years ago that called for coating chicken in buttermilk, dredge in flour, coat again in buttermilk and flour and fry.  The key was to put it in hot oil and keep the heat consistent while frying--so not loading up the pan too much and adding pieces slowly.  I would season the flour with whatever sounded good.  The skin came out very crunchy and the meat was so tender and moist.  Substitute gluten-free for any of the above.

 

Penzy's makes a seasoning called "Old World".  Its a blend especially made for baking chicken.  It tastes just like my Grandma's fried chicken and all you do is sprinkle it on the chicken and bake.  I prefer it on chicken with skin still on--I know but nummy!!!  It's good on skinless stuff too.   Penzey's spices and mixes are gluten-free--confirmed via email from the company last week :D.

the recipe i used said to soak it in buttermilk for a few hours, then dry off, s&p, and do the egg/flour dredge thing.  i have never been very good at making fried chicken, so i was pretty happy when the hubs said it was good (and gluten-free! )  i was like:  wow!  :)  where does one purchase such spices?  i am in east tennessee.   or does one order from a ma zon <i ordered some stuff yesterday.  entirely too easy....  i even remembered my password.  scared me to death lolz

http://www.penzeys.com/  You can see if there is one near you or order online.  Also sign up for their catalog.  They have fantastic recipes and you get a coupon for a free spice each catalog (monthly).  The recipes may or may not be gluten-free but they can probably be adapted to work.

We have a Penzys store and we have to stay out of it. We get stuff we don't need.

Tonight we are going to the baseball game so I'm just packing a ham and cheese. Will get a Redbridge and maybe some popcorn there.

:D   Last time I was in Penzy's I spent about $90.  The clerk said "haven't been here in a while, huh."  I about died laughing.  I was mostly buying gifts but it's so true!!  I LOVE their small boxes for hostess gifts!!

 

Plan changed, hubs was not home so I had gluten-free hash browns and a Udi hamburger bun toasted with seasoned butter.  It was the first gluten-free bread I've had.  It was pretty good.  Hubs ate one the other night and said the same.

Tonight we went to Texas de Brazil, a Churrascaria style steak house.  Had a half off deal and wanted to take my teenage relatives who haven't even been in a nice restaurant before, they thought it was the best thing ever.  Nomnomnomnom steak!   Steak is how you score!  (that is a saying my best friend made up, we still use it!)

Trying a cauliflower pizza for the first time tonight. I have a few recipes I've been looking at, but a friend has a recipe she claims is 'foldable'. Waiting on that recipe and it's supposed to be a super low carb one, so im hoping it is gluten free too. Now I just need to decide on toppings.

They sell vodka, too? I'm in Kansas and the liquor laws wouldn't allow that. They do sell lovely wine based vinegars!

I use the basil olive oil on garlic bread sticks. Toasted seasame oil in stir fry! That stuff is so yummy, I could almost drink it!

Depends on the store I guess.  Vom Foss is the one I've been to...wild cherry vodka---YUM

 

 

Ok, so I'm making a Glutino Pizza crust.  It's really sticky...is that normal for gluten free breads?  I have to let it rise for 40 minutes, hopefully it's not as bad then.

Yes. Sticky is normal. Here is what I do. I lay out plastic wrap on a big cutting mat or extra cookie sheet, plop the glop of dough on it, put more plastic wrap on top, then roll or press out thought the plastic wrap. Then take the top wrap off, use the cookie sheet and flip it over onto what you are cooking it on.

      Test says no, but body says Yes?

      @PlanetJanet, Sorry to hear about your back pain.  I have three crushed vertebrae myself.  I found that a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamin and Pyridoxine (all water soluble B vitamins) work effectively for my back pain.  This combination really works without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain meds.  I hope you will give them a try. Here are articles on these vitamins and pain relief... Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ And...

      Here is the info from their website. If you don't trust them, you may find products that are labelled "gluten-free," but I don't see any reason to believe there is any gluten in them.

      Hi, trents, Thanks for responding! One book I read is called, Doing Harm, by Maya Dusenbery.  She has wonderful perspective and insight, and it's all research-based.  It's about how women can't get treated.  Everyone should read this!  I wouldn't mind reading it again, even.  She believes that women are so busy taking care of families, working, etc., that we are more likely to ignore our pain and symptoms for longer.  Men have women bugging them to go to the doctor.  Women don't have anyone telling us that.  We don't have time to go.  Providers think we are over-emotional, histrionic, depressed, have low tolerance to pain...Men get prescribed opioids for the same symptoms women are prescribed anti-depressants.  My car crash in January 2020 made going to the doctor a full-time job.  I grew up with 2 rough and tumble brothers, played outside, climbed trees.  I was tough and strong, pain didn't bother me, I knew it would heal.  But do you think I could get treated for back pain--as a woman?  I am so familiar now with the brush-offs, the blank looks, the, "Take your Ibuprofen," the insinuation that I am just over-reacting, trying to get attention, or even, "Drug Seeking."  Took almost 2 years, but what was happening was Degenerative Sacroiliitis.  I couldn't walk right, my gait was off, effected my entire spine because gait was off.  I had braced myself with my legs in a front-impact, slightly head-on crash with someone who made a left turn in front of me from the opposite direction.  I finally had SI Joint Fusion surgery, both sides.  It's not a cure. I have given up on trying to get properly treated.  There is so much pain with these spine issues caused by bad gait:  scoliosis, lithesis, arthropathy, bulged disc, Tarlov cysts.  And I can't take anything because of my bad tummy. Not that I would ever hurt anyone, but I can relate to Luis Mangione who couldn't get treated for his back injury. I feel so alone.

      They say maltodextrin is gluten-free, even if it's made from wheat, because the gluten is processed away.  It makes no difference to my body.  I still get uncontrollable flatulence and leakage.  Happens every time, even if I refuse to believe it will happen.  Once I was taking Gas-X chewables to hang around with people I was visiting and staying with, to make sure I would feel safer and more comfortable.  WRONG.  I forgot to read the label. I didn't realize it till after I left and went home--MALTODEXTRIN.  I was miserable the whole time. The second gastroenterologist I saw made the tentative diagnosis of microscopic colitis.  Usually occurs in women over 60, I was 59, had been in a crash, (2020) was taking alot of NSAIDS, muscle relaxants.  Had constant diarrhea, gas, leaking.  Unbearable, and I didn't know it was NSAIDS.  I was scheduled for two-way endoscopy, mouth to butt, but they wanted $2,000 up front.  Finally, had a colonoscopy in 2022, 10 biopsies, didn't find a thing!  MC can go into remission, which I was, of course, desperate to do.  No more NSAIDS, tried to cut down on all the other pain killers, everything, chemicals that I knew triggered me.  So, no, they didn't find anything.  So sad that we have to make ourselves sicker and more injured to get a proper diagnosis! Microscopic colitis is being seen concurrently with gluten problems.  MC can be triggered by NSAIDS, SSRI's, all kinds of things. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17227-microscopic-colitis Some links for maltodextrin health effects: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6409436/#:~:text=Altogether%2C these findings show that,the development of intestinal inflammation. https://www.mdedge.com/internalmedicine/article/193956/gastroenterology/maltodextrin-may-increase-colitis-risk
