Roast Beef Cubes Start an Easy-to-Pack Gluten-Free Lunch
While we’re at home on a weekend, lunches are frequently soup and salad. When we’re on our way somewhere, though, I won’t pack soup for lunch — too messy in the car! Neither does a sandwich work, but for a different reason: my hubby carries sandwiches every weekday, so he’s willing to have something different on a weekend. I like to make something without the bread partly because it’s simpler to prepare, partly to keep our carbs down some, and partly just for the variety, to offset possible boredom from his weekday lunches. Sometimes I’ll cut cubes from a lean roast beef like I’ve mentioned before. I especially like a round eye roast, or a bottom roast cooked the same way, [...]

Shrimp Gumbo – Light and Gluten Free
A gluten-free dish with zip that’s healthy and also easy to fix — that’s a good one to pull out of the recipe box! The shrimp provides the low-fat protein, the vegetables add more flavor and nutrition, and the seasonings can be as peppy as you like. It’s a light, filling dish for a gluten-free diet.

Chili and Beans for Dinner
From a Texas Hill Country town founded by German immigrants comes the best chili I know — adapted from my Oma, although she would have used at least twice as much chili powder, or sometimes she added one or more chili petines (pequins) to the pot.

Turkey Tortilla Roll-ups for a Gluten-free Lunch
Trying to pack a lunch is hard enough as it is, but making it gluten-free is even harder. When my hubby and I take a trip together, I’ll often pack a lunch since that’s usually more dependable than hoping to find something gluten-free for me “on the road.” (That most likely means I’ll be having something like a bag of tortilla chips and a bag of peanuts from the vending machine.) Let me tell you that I’m not satisfied by that while smelling my husband’s hamburger and fries! I’ve learned that when I do fix myself a lunch, I’d better fix double, though, because I’ll end up sharing it with that same guy who’d otherwise be ordering a full [...]

Green and Yellow Beans, Buttered
The flavors of these two beans subtly complement each other, like the visual effect does. Whether they’re the whole or cut version, they’re one of my husband’s favorites.
Fish Fillets Fried with Cornflake Crumb Breading (Gluten-Free)
We’ve had gluten-free fish breaded a number of different ways, but last night I cooked them with cornflake crumbs. We thought it had the best all-around flavor and texture of any I’ve cooked. You could make your own cornflake crumbs in a food processor with gluten-free cornflakes, but this time I used ready-made Southern Homestyle Corn Flake Crumbs distributed by The SoyNut Butter Company. We added some potatoes and a serving of green and wax beans for one of our favorite gluten-free meals.

A Taste for a Hot Dog, Gluten-free
We normally try to eat on the healthy side of average, which means lean meat and plenty of vegetables. Once in a while we get a taste for a hot dog, but the chicken/turkey/pork varieties don’t satisfy that taste. Lean beef hot dogs do, so I’ll share that with you… … Recently we had some Hebrew National franks, which are one of the gluten-free brands we like. For information on Hebrew National labeling about gluten, look here. For the Hebrew National franks site, you can look here. Since the franks are already cooked, you just need to simmer them in a covered pan with a small amount of liquid until heated through. That liquid can be water, or it can be [...]
