The Superbowl-how to “tackle” it with a Gluten Free Fit perspective
One day is not going to make you fat. Not Christmas, not Thanksgiving, New Year, not even Superbowl. What matters is the other 359 days a year that aren’t holidays, as I touched on in my “Tips for a Healthy Gluten Free Holiday Season” post. However, these days can be a bit of a calorie [...]
Not Really a Recipe-Baked Chicken Edition
We eat a lot of poultry. I’ve mentioned before my fear of sprouting feathers and clucking. There was recently a Twitter discussion about eating chicken-and Sandra of the Gluten Free Optimist (aka Maryland Celiac) mentioned her need for more ideas for baked chicken. And a dislike of Italian Dressing, BBQ, sour cream, and mushrooms. (Did [...]
Gluten Free Dairy Free Protein Bar-”Kind of a Recipe”-Trail Mix bars!
It was time. Time to attempt a protein bar with one of the non-dairy proteins. I was a little scared, to be honest. Whey protein is very friendly when it comes to baking gluten free, and I wasn’t sure how the rice protein would react. (I decided to use the rice protein instead of gemma [...]
Birthdays and Gluten Free Chocolate Cupcakes-Heaven on Earth (Kind of a Recipe)
Some of you may have already heard that yesterday was my birthday. Life is good-I received many birthday wishes on Facebook, Twitter, and my friend Kim at Gluten Free is Life, gave me a birthday shout out on her blog.

Not Really A Recipe-Stuffed Chicken Breast (gluten free of course!)
Chicken is a staple in my house. Of course the running joke is that at times I feel like I’m going to sprout feathers, I eat so much poultry. It’s a great source of lean protein, versatile, and I am fortunate enough to have a family owned food market nearby where I can get boneless [...]
Not Really a Recipe-Balsamic Turkey Breast (gluten free!)
Cooking is not rocket surgery. I know many people are intimidated by the idea of cooking for themselves, and in my opinion this is why many people rely on pre-packaged, take out or out-to-dinner meals. I am all for the idea of making your life easier and more time efficient, and I think that some [...]
Recipe Alert! Gluten Free Chocolate Banana Protein Brownies
I have had 5 baking bananas (really ripe bananas that you throw in the freezer thinking-”I’ll use these to bake!”) sitting in my freezer staring at me for at least a month now. Probably longer. Also, Jeff told me the last protein powder we tried (it’s a whey, and I’m not going to mention the [...]
Recipe Alert! Very Lemony Chicken
As a follow up to my last post with tips for making your food more flavorful while keeping it healthy and gluten free, here is a very simple recipe that incorporates some of those ideas. (I know I need to work on my food-photo skills. They are not very good. I promise I will get [...]
Eating Healthfully and Flavorfully (is that a word?) Gluten Free
There are many wonderful gluten free food and recipe blogs that you can take a look at for ideas, and I’m going to list a few for you at the end of this post. But barring a specific recipe-what if you just want to cook, not follow a recipe per se? Here are 6 tips [...]
Recipe Alert! Homemade Gluten Free Pumpkin Protein Bars
This recipe came about after seeing so many awesome pumpkin recipes lately. Tis the season, right? Usually I just pass them along to my amazing baker friend Kim at Gluten Free is Life because honestly-I tend to not measure things too much. And as you probably know, that can cause problems in baking. I have [...]
