Tuna Salad
Fast, easy…and economical: A good tuna salad recipe is all that and more. If you’re on a gluten-free diet, you may find that knowing how to make tuna salad expands your mealtime options more than you can imagine. So, here is one to add to your file of gluten-free recipes.
Creamed Tuna is Easy for a Gluten-Free Diet
A perennial dinner favorite in my house is Creamed Tuna. It’s good when I’m short on time and I need to go shopping, but we’re hungry right now…so my gluten-free diet also has to satisfy everyone in the family.
The foundation of this easy dinner is a medium white sauce. I learned a long time ago that a basic white sauce or cream sauce is a kitchen standby, and it’s just as useful for a gluten-free diet as it is for gluten-y cooking. It works for a lot of my favorite 30 minute meals!
Gluten-Free Crab Cakes for the Whole Family
These delightful rounds of gluten-free crab meat were not a dish I learned about when I was very young, but as soon as I tasted them, I wanted to make up for lost time. Whether I use almond flour or breadcrumbs to make them, these crab cakes seem more impressive than the effort they take to prepare. The whole family will like them whether they need to eat gluten-free or not.
Cod Fillets Sauteed with Garlic, Onions and Peppers, Gluten-Free, Casein-Free
Looking for a healthy dish with lots of flavor that’s also quick and easy for a weeknight supper?

Cod, a mild-flavored deep sea fish, is easily found in many supermarkets. Easy to cook in a variety of ways, cod fillets are among my family’s favorites for taste and ease of preparation.

With its high nutrition and ease of cooking, salmon is a natural for a quick but elegant dinner, like this combination of salmon, acorn squash and sautéed vegetables.
Salmon Croquettes, Gluten-Free
A childhood favorite that became one of my family’s favorites, my mom’s Salmon Croquettes were hard to leave behind when I first went gluten-free…they were so good that our kids would ask for them when she came to visit.
Tilapia Fillets, Broiled, With Portobello Mushrooms and Peppers – Gluten-Free
