Gluten Free

Wegmans is a grocery store that has long offered a generous variety of gluten-free options. From their own brownie and cake mixes, to labeled prepared food items, all the way down their Gluten-Free aisle, it is a Celiacs paradise, filled with gluten-free products you never even knew you were missing. Continuing their crusade towards gluten-free substitutes for all, Wegmans has found their way into the heart of all gluten-free pizza lovers with their new Pizza Shop. The pilot program that has been set in 42 stores across 6 states will bake gluten-free pizza (Pepperoni, Mushroom Florentine, or Margherita) for customers in their Market Café. The pizzas are pre-packaged in a dedicated gluten-free facility, arriving at Wegmans frozen, in order to cut out cross-contamination risk. Currently the pilot program is taking place in many east coast stores, including Wegmans’ in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, Maryland, and Massachusetts. The pizzas are available for purchase baked at the Market Café, or can be purchased for home-use in the gluten-free freezer aisle. What do you think? Would you buy GF pizza at Wegmans?

These dedicated bakeries serve the gluten free community in Washington. Of course, there are dozens, perhaps hundreds, more. I’ll get to them eventually. This is the second installment of my highly ambitious goal of preparing a list of gluten free bakeries in each of the 50 states. I’ll copy my recommendations for the individual states [...]

If you've never tried guanciale, you should check it out. It's like bacon, only better. Made from the jowl of the pig, guanciale is the best part of the animal once it's cured. Guanciale is the central umame flavor in Pasta Amatriciana, a rustic pasta dish from Italy. It's simple to make and, thanks to the guanciale, it's incredibly delicious. If you use the concept of prepping and cooking at the same time, this simple dish is very quick to make. Pasta Amatriciana Recipe Prep/Cook time: 30 minutes Serves 2-3 Set your water to boil for the pasta and, at the same time, put a large pan on the stove to heat up on medium heat. Toss in the pan: some lardons of guanciale While all that is heating up, cut up some: shallots Toss those in the pan with the guanciale that's rendering. Cut into chunks: 1 pound fresh or frozen tomatoes By this time the water should be at a boil. When this is indeed the case, start cooking: 8 oz. pasta Add the tomatoes to the pan with the shallots. Add: salt to taste Boil down the tomatoes to thicken the sauce. In the meantime, grate: parmigiano reggiano to taste When the pasta is al dente, scoop out some of the starchy pasta water and set aside. Drain and rinse the pasta. If the sauce needs some extra moisture, add some of the pasta water you reserved and stir in. Turn the heat off under your pan. Add the pasta to the sauce. Stir it all together to incorporate. If more liquid is needed, add some of that pasta water you reserved. Add most of the parmesan cheese you grated and stir that in, too. Plate your pasta and serve hot.

Big salads are back! Easy. Fast. Filling. It’s all about the Big Salad. Crisp lettuce, grape tomatoes, avocado, Cabot cheese, Perdue gluten free chicken tenders, bell pepper, and scallion My favorite part is definitely the avocado with the chicken. Crunchy with creamy – it’s the best! For dressing Parrish and I go back and forth between Wishbone Buffalo Ranch and Cilantro Shallot Vinaigrette. Both are good, but we didn’t have cilantro on had last night, so Buffalo Ranch it was! The only thing that could make this salad better would be crispy bacon. But let’s face it, crispy bacon makes everything better.

Nailed it! That’s totally what went through my head with this recipe. I told my husband last week that I was craving Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. (Doesn’t everyone have these random... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

Yesterday, I mentioned one of my latest favorite breakfasts. This is my other favorite. However, I haven't just limited this delicious "Mighty Bagel" to just breakfast. I ate one for lunch the other day with some tuna salad inside of it. OUT-OF-This-World. Mighty Bagels are very filling. I was able to not snack between meals after eating one. My little (newly turned one year old) son loves them too. He is also GF and he insists on helping me devour these whenever he sees them! I think my baby is a Udi'sholic.

Oh my goodness, I have found a new favorite snack in our house! I had the great opportunity of trying the line of parmesan crisps from Kitchen Table Bakers and let me just tell you, they are phenomenal! They are full of flavor, crunchy, and low-carb which I like since we tend to get bombarded with high starchy gluten free snacks. These are great on their own or crumbled on top of a salad in place of traditional croutons. The four flavors were unique and exciting to try. Sesame- This was my favorite flavor as it had so much going on. It kind of reminded me of an everything bagel. Lots of great tastes going on with the nuttiness of the sesame really standing out. Aged Parmesan- This was a traditional type crisp that my boys and hubby especially liked. It was mild and perfect for a light snack. Rosemary- This robust cracker was full of flavor and reminiscent of Thanksgiving for me. I imagine it would make an excellent addition to our appetizer table on Thanksgiving! Jalepeno- I like anything with a kick so this cheesy, spicy crisp was right up my alley. Topped with a cool cream cheese dollop and you are set to go…yum! Kitchen Table Bakers also has other great flavors like Flax, Everything, Italian Herb and Garlic. This company makes high quality products using high quality ingredients. Their crisps are wheat, gluten, sugar and trans fat free which is great. If you are looking for a great alternative to your usual gluten free starchy cracker or just want a delicious snack, these are for you!
