Gluten-Free Chicken and Sausage Gumbo

Gluten-Free Chicken and Sausage Gumbo

I modified my mother's chicken and sausage gumbo recipe to make it gluten-free. Good gumbo is hard to find for my friend with a wheat allergy. The wheat flour roux is the key ingredient for any gumbo. After experimenting with a few gluten-free alternatives, I find that a light brown millet flour roux thickens the gumbo and gives an excellent taste nearly equal to wheat flour. Most people won't notice the difference.

Quick and Easy Pretzel Bites with Nutella® Dipping Sauce

Very quick and easy pretzel bites with two dipping sauces. This came together kind of by accident when the kids wanted a snack after school. We have made homemade pretzels before and I have to admit that was a little time consuming. The trick with this shortcut is the baking soda water bath. I love Nutella®. Enjoy!

French Country Bread

French Country Bread

This French country bread is a simple European-style country bread. Just enough whole wheat flour gives it some flavor but not so much that it's heavy. I use an overnight starter to give it extra flavor.

Panang Curry with Chicken

Panang curry with chicken represents the diversity of Thailand's southern region. Panang refers to the island of Penang in Northern Malaysia bordering southern Thailand. Use 4 tablespoons curry paste from a fresh curry paste recipe or 5 tablespoons pre-made curry paste if time does not permit making your own paste

This quinoa kale recipe is great for a quick but healthy side dish. White cooking wine can be used instead of 1 tablespoon water at the end of cooking.
