This blog post is inspired by two of our sister gluten-free bakers. I am so happy to hear from them and to get their feedback especially on the DIY gluten-free pizza mix. The first comment and update was from Kim B. She mentioned that the previous pizza mix used one envelope of yeast and my […]
Weekends in our house now revolve around what teams are playing football on Saturday or Sunday. Family and friends often gather to watch exciting competitions together, and food is a necessary ingredient to our enjoyment. Last weekend this tasty snack–a dip with gluten-free dippers–won me some lovely compliments. Little did most people know, most of […]
Sometimes my family just needs something crispy to munch on! This is my go to recipe since it makes up fast and I can keep some in the freezer (either unbaked as a log or baked). We like the added zip of the spicy pepper. It seems to punch up the Cheddar cheese flavor. […]
Zucchini! What can I say? It seems that everyone grows so much zucchini that in the summer there aren’t enough recipes to use it all! Actually, now zucchini is available all year in the grocery stores, but in my youth it was a summer specialty. Fortunately, I love to garden and I often grow zucchini, […]

These scones are absolutely delicious! I made the over the weekend just as the weather turned cooler. Tasty and cheesy and good! I enjoy knowing how different things bake together to make a delicious, gluten-free product. Beer adds a depth of flavor, and, of course, the alcohol is baked out. All that is left is […]
Monday I posted a blog and the recipe for won ton wrappers as requested. Today I’ll share just how I used those wrappers and more. I cut some of the wrappers into rectangles of 2-inch x 3-inch or so. Then I placed one in each of the cups of a small cupcake or muffin tin, […]
Focaccia is an Italian flatbread, much like pizza, but the herbs are incorporated into the dough, and you can add any toppings you wish. Usually cheese is one of the or toppings. I find focaccia to be a great addition to a lighter meal–say a luncheon salad or soup. The focaccia takes the place of […]
