Great food... that's Gluten Free
Broccolini is a refreshing change-up from broccoli. If you haven’t tried it, you should. It has a nice texture, color and taste and is very easy to prepare. Leeks are a cousin to scallions but are larger and more yellow. In this dish the leeks are sautéed which caramelizes and sweetens them but the leeks still add an “oniony” kick. The leeks yellow color with the green broccolini is a simple pairing of beauty and taste.
Ahhh…there’s nothing like the amazing aroma of kugel baking in the oven. The only thing better than the smell is devouring a warm, scrumptious piece yourself! For GG’s Vanilla Noodle Kugel (Gluten Free), I substitute gluten free spaghetti noodles for the egg noodles and break the pasta strands into four equal pieces similar to the size of egg noodles. The result is a fabulous gluten free brunch recipe or Yom Kippur break-the-fast dish.
The recipe for Homemade Dill Pickles…Easy as 1,2,3 only takes about 5 minutes of work and requires ZERO steps of the traditional canning process. By the next day, you’ll be eating perfectly crisp deli-style pickles. Munch on that!
There’s a lot of flexibility with this recipe. You can use just zucchini or squash or a combo like I did. I used blue cheese in this rendition but feta or goat would be delicious too. The nutty crunch from the pine nuts is terrific but feel free to experiment with chopped hazelnuts or macadamias. But whatever you do, splurge on the truffle honey drizzle. It knocks this dish right out of the park. Trust me!
Turmeric Coconut Crunch Rice with Wilted Spinach differentiates itself from other rice dishes with its sesame/coconut/lime/scallion crunch topping. The crunch topping is soooo good! Sprinkle it on the creamy coconut rice fragrant with turmeric, garlic, and ginger and spiked with wilted greens throughout to make this a winning rice dish.
Try my snap-‘n-peel method for the tastiest asparagus…it’s the secret to creating tender asparagus bottoms. My mom is the one who taught me this simple trick! Most people love the asparagus tips, but in my family we love the tender bottoms best. Try Snap-‘n-Peel Sautéed Asparagus and see if your family agrees!
Each potato is a crispy gem that bursts with flavor and texture. The roasting caramelizes the garlic and crisps the mashed edges of the potatoes. The warm potato with the cool Aioli topped with the tangy Balsamic Syrup drizzle completes the complexity of the dish. Each bite is a tasty treat that will keep you coming back for more.
Honey-Glazed Sweet Potato Wedges take sweet potatoes to another level. Slice them into wedges and roast with olive oil to make them crispy on the outside and creamy, smooth on the inside. Then drizzle honey for the last ten minutes of roasting to create a wonderful candied-coating that makes these sweet potato wedges totally irresistible!
I saw a big bag of enticing-looking baby bok choy at the korean market the other day. When I bought the bok choy, I had no recipe in mind. After getting home, I saw that I had a package of shiitake mushrooms. So I sautéed the two together and thoroughly enjoyed result.
When I find interesting mushrooms at the market, I buy them because there is nothing as tasty as a sautéed mushroom medley.
There’s a big difference between homemade roasted peppers and those from a jar. Because it’s so easy to make roasted peppers, you’ll never have to compromise again.
I love super-easy recipes that are big on flavor. This is one of those! Combine a few sauce ingredients together and add sliced cucumbers. Mix together and let marinate for at least 10 minutes. That’s it!
The skin on these potatoes is crispy and very flavorful while the inside is piping hot and smooth. Put them in the oven for 1 hour 15 minutes and serve them with your favorite toppings.
