Summer Veggie Gluten Free Recipes. Anit-Pasta Salad & Sweet & Sour Cucumbers

Hmmm.. My favorite. Veggies.
If you are looking to save some $$ I just heard Aldi now carries, gluten free products. I have not tried them, so I don't know how good they are, but it would be worth trying.

Anti-Pasta Salad
1 bag Gluten Free Pasta (Try Tinkyada Pasta Joy, Brown Rice Pasta in the Rotini shape. This brand does not get mushy like other brands and the Rotini shape holds the dressing better.)
3/4 cup Black Olives (Sliced or Diced)
1/2 cup Green Olives (Sliced or Diced)
1/2 Green Pepper (Diced)
1/2 Yellow Pepper (Diced)
1 Tomato (De-seeded and Diced)
6oz of Feta Cheese Crumbles Fat Free

IMPORTANT: Cook Pasta longer than directed. GF pasta takes longer to cook and when it gets cold in the refrigerator it gets ridged. Rinse with cold water. Place a cover container in refrigerator to cool for at least one hour.

Add all your ingredients and mix with a spoon or spatula. Ready to serve.

Sweet and Sour Cucumbers
Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
Water
Sliced Cucumbers

Mix. Cover. Put in the refrigerator overnight. Yummy.

Have a Happy Healthy Day.

The December Adventure to Find a Delicious & Simple Gluten-Free Bread Recipe

Oh my goodness. I have tried a GF bread mix, GF flour, a mix of GF flour and rice flour all...yuck. Still the best GF bread recipe I have is cornbread. In fact, last week we turned it into a jalapeno cornbread. Now we are going to try a jalapeno & cheese cornbread. Amazing!! Add some beans on top and some GF chicken broth on top. Yummy. The Adventure 1. The GF recipe said, put all the dough in ONE bread pan and let rise to the rim and bake. Since I have baked homemade bread in the past, I thought, "Hmm. This sure is alot of dough for only one bread pan." And...it was. As it baked, it rose five inches above the bread pan itself. It browned on the outside and cooked the appropriate time, I took it out and it was not cooked on the inside. I laid it on a cooling rack like instructed, the bread collapsed. Very bizarre. I think the directions on the GF bread back need to be changed. LOL 2. I took an old recipe from my Grandfather and adapted it, adding GF baking flour an...

Make Ahead & Freeze Gluten Free Recipes.

After 8 months of gluten free eating my husband is on board to cook gluten free meals for me. He is an amazing cook. He is creative, follows the recipe and adds his own flair to make the recipe all his own. He even came in 2nd at a huge chili cook off at our church. He has created two new home recipes for me. Both are make ahead recipes. Both are freezable. In our household we like to cook twice a week. Enough to be evening staple meals for two or three days. With only two of us it makes it easier than most families of 4 or more. With these new freezable recipes we have been trying, we can cook on Sunday and have meals for a month if we choose. These recipes can stay in the freezer for up to 3 months. Pizza Tot Casserole 1 1/2lbs ground beef ...
