Great food... that's Gluten Free
While Poke originated in Hawaii, it’s now mainstream and available in many restaurants and even in many supermarkets. However, making your own Poke Bowls is a total breeze. And if your reaction is anything like my husband’s was when devouring his homemade Tuna Poke Bowl, you’ll be strutting around doing the Hokey Pokey or busting a move!
Fresh and Herby Gluten Free Macaroni Salad is perfect for summer holidays, pot lucks, and picnics. It’s a breeze to throw together, travels easily, and the gf pasta holds up well. It’s not mayonnaise-y and heavy like so many other macaroni salads. Rather it’s light, fresh and herby…just like the recipe name. How about that😉!
Steak with Hot Miso Butter is loaded with full-on umami flavor. The steak is totally delicious on its own but it’s the creative blend of butter, miso, and sriracha that propels this baby right off the charts!
I love roasted broccoli. The roasting creates delectable little crispy bits on the edges of the florets and there’s both a crunch and a softness that develops through the roasting process. Roasted Broccoli alone is a treat but whey you pair it with a classic Thai-style dressing, it’s another level. Roasted Broccoli with Thai-Style Dressing is an unexpected combination that will seduce you.
No need to go to or take out from P.F. Chang’s when you can make their Mongolian Beef Dish at home! Copycat P.F Chang’s Gluten Free Mongolian Beef has extra crispy steak (thanks to the corn starch) that’s cooked to perfection and then is coated in a lip-smacking sweet and savory sauce. I doubt there will be leftovers…we polished off the whole plate!
While salt and pepper fish is a classic asian dish, the scallion rice in this rendition kicks this recipe up a notch or two. The fish is mixed with some simple ingredients such as ginger, gluten free soy sauce, honey, and of course, salt and pepper and then quickly seared in the pan. Meanwhile the rice is mixed with sugar, vinegar, scallions and butter. Yup…butter! Place the fish over the rice and wham-o, Salt & Pepper Fish with Scallion Rice is served. It’s a perfect, simple asian-style dinner.
Crunchy beans and crunchy soy-glazed almonds…yum! Green Bean Salad with Soy-Glazed Almonds (GF) is a refreshingly bright salad (or veggie dish) that is so easy to make. Because it can be served cold or room temp, it’s another great make-ahead recipe that’s also super-convenient for potlucks, picnics and holidays.
Grilled Scallops with Nori and Lime Mayo has a fabulous presentation. But more than that, I love how all of the individual elements combine to create subtle scallop taste bombs. This recipe is the perfect balance of the taste of the sea from the scallops and nori, a bit of heat from the crushed red pepper flakes, a slight crunch from the scallions finished with the creamy tartness of the lime mayo. Each bite drew me in deeper and my taste buds wanted more!
Crispy Tofu with Maple-Soy Glaze -(Gluten Free) is a super-easy and delicious recipe that has the perfect balance of sweet and salty with just a hint of spice. The sauce has a wonderful stickiness that clings to the crispy tofu in a delectable way. This recipe is perfect for tofu lovers and novices alike…and is great for vegetarians and vegans.
Grilled Flank Steak and Scallions with Soy-Mirin Sauce is a fantastic dish. It’s ridiculously easy to make yet has the big-bang flavor of a complex dish. And the best part of all…it’s meant to be served at room temp which makes it a perfect recipe for family gatherings or holiday meals. NO last minute prep or heating up necessary.
Satay Breakfast Toast sounds strange–I know. But try it. If you like peanut butter, I bet you’ll like it. Toast up your favorite gluten free bread, spread some peanut butter, sprinkle cilantro and scallions, and finish with a drizzle of sriracha. Take a bite, close your eyes, and enjoy the great combo of flavors that burst in your mouth.
