  1. Over the Christmas holiday I ate well at my inlaws house. My mother in law wanted to cook stuff I can eat, I got her info, tried not to overwhelm her too much. She did great, and I now feel pretty safe letting her make food for me. I think she is all anal retentive like me, do it right or not at all, haha. It was very nice Turkey, mashed potatoes,...
  2. To answer the initial question: No. When you have special needs, the people who are closest to you should be accommodating and when they do, it is hard to feel like you are not being selfish. On the other hand, this coming from a married woman.... men cannot read our minds. A lot of times you will have an extreme emotion and not share it at all because...
  3. Tonight was beef stew and homemade brownies. Yummmm
  4. I am Thanks for thinking of me! I am going out shopping this evening with a family member so maybe we can get some tasty food somewhere
  5. I need to lay off the See's Candy this holiday season but I just can't help myself!

      Ah, went to See's yesterday. The goal was to purchase gifts, but I got a pound for me too!

  6. Today my gallbladder is bothering me so I just microwaved an acorn squash and ate that for lunch with some gluten-free pretzels because they were on the counter and looked tasty. I don't know if I just got an oddball one, but the squash had oddly pale flesh and had a very weak taste. I just added more stuff to it to make it palatable. Tonight I may may...
  7. I do baked pasta often with brown rice pasta. It is hard to overcook. I haven't used the ancient harvest pasta, but if you have, you should know whether or not it overcooks easily. If it does, I would cook it to 3 minutes under the usual time needed. If it is REALLY easy to overcook, I would try the brown rice pasta (I use tinkyada). Under cooking it...
  8. I am making breakfast for dinner. Pigs in a blanket! With KAF baking mix, just used the biscuit recipe. I just pulled them out of the oven, letting them sit a few minutes.
  9. Well today in North Texas is day 2 of "icemageddon." People here have no idea how to drive in this. On the news they are just flying out in their helicopter and there are stuck vehicles and semis all over, highways are nearly impassable, etc. My husband had said we would go get me some good gluten-free pizza this weekend but no way am I going out there...
  10. My husband gets terrible looking armpits with the wrong deoderant. It also looks like a big ring. I think it manifests that way because that is the part that naturally is rubbing on each other when you move your arms, so it exacerbates it. Sometimes it isn't the fragrance, it could be another ingredient. That plus the constant friction can equal a long...
  11. Last night my vegetable hating husband ate dinner away from the house so I took the chance to make myself something I sauteed a double sized container of sliced mushrooms, zucchini, garlic, olive oil, and diced tomato, and threw a little pasta in there. Topped it off with pecorino romano cheese... mmmmm. Gosh it was soooo good! I think it is totally...
  12. Colleen I know how you feel. I, too, am tired of heavy food. Like you look at something that is delicious but all you can think is "Ugh!" LOL... Last night I forgot to thaw out meat so I made grilled ham and cheese sandwiches on Udis white bread with american singles and ham lunchmeat. My gluten eater husband will eat grilled sandwiches on gluten-free...
  13. Thanks, Irish That gave me a big smile first thing this morning as I have my chebe rolls in the oven! *drool* And GFlover, your injury list sounds like every day in my kitchen, I am such a huge klutz! LOL Today: Turkey, ham, crock pot dressing, giblet gravy, fruit salad, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, chebe cheesy...
  14. I am pre cooking some stuff for tomorrow so its microwaved leftovers until tomorrow, then Turkey and all the good sides. All gluten-free.
  15. Yep and without me, my husband would eat much fewer vegetables. He knows about...most... of them. LOL
  16. I have discovered one of the best cures for boredom while I can't work is cooking things and spending time in the kitchen. Promoting stereotypes, haha. And no one has messaged me about the coupons yet, I just had all those and was about to toss them but I was like, there has to be $50 here and some family could use them. Feel free to send someone my...
  17. Yesterday: I made homemade mac n cheese, and put cooked cubed chicken, carrots, and broccoli in the sauce with the noodles so it was like a one pot meal. Today: Nachos with refried beans, taco meat, cheese, salsa, and guac Tomorrow: Grilled chicken with carrots and potatoes au gratin
  18. If you want a bunch of coupons (only doing 1 lot Im not going to peice this out) that I won't be able to use before they expire, please PM me and I will snail mail them to you. At least 8 enjoy life, crunchmaster, rudis, and a lot of brands I can't get at my local supermarket.

  19. Yesterday: Baked lemon pepper seasoned chicken leg quarters with Idahoan steakhouse bacon and ranch red potatoes (one of the first times I have cooked something from a box other than mac n cheese since I went gluten-free) and peas. Those potatoes are REALLY good by the way. I could eat the whole box. Today: Hamburgers for lunch, Chicken stir fry for...
  20. Last night I made grilled pork chops, green beans, and red potatoes sliced up and baked with some parmesean and garlic on them. Yummm! Tonight I heated up my chicken broccoli rice cheesy casserole I made and froze last time I made it. I love making my own frozen "stouffers meals" for when I need them!
  21. Last night I made Beef and Broccoli, turned out pretty good Today for dinner will be pecan crusted baked chicken with mashed sweet potatoes and green beans.
  22. Today was a rainy day and I made beef stew... mmmmmm... tomorrow will be rainy as well and a perfect day for the leftovers
  23. Today I went out with my stepmom to Genghis Grill. If you guys haven't heard of it it is a chain, mongolian stir fry. You go put whatever meat and veggies you want in a bowl and they cook it up for you. They are allergy friendly in general, will go cook your bowl in a clean skillet in the back instead of on the main grill they do everyone elses on. Also...
  24. I am making enchiladas on Friday. When I make them I do a double recipe, and put together one in a cheap foil pan and freeze it for my own frozen convenience meal. I make my own enchilada sauce because I dislike the tinny, flavorless kind in a can. Here is my recipe. To make enchiladas just roll up prepared taco meat (I add black beans in the middle too...
