Green Beans with Bacon and Onion for a Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Dinner

I would even have been happy to make a gluten-free version of that traditional green bean casserole that “everyone” likes. Green beans are my favorite in many dishes, including that one. But, when I asked the hostess who had just invited us, her answer of “Green Beans with Bacon and Onion” was a wonderful surprise! I like that even better!

… It Means Pumpkin Pie … Yum!

Ever since I developed my gluten allergy, pies have been a real challenge. The filling wasn’t so much of a problem… put enough sugar in anything and the rest of the family will probably love it. The real tough nut to crack has always been the crust.

But, yucky tasting, gluten-free pie crusts have become a thing of my past… and my family loves it… even my husband.

- Gluten-Free Diet Menu Plan for the Week of June 16, 2013
  
  There are so many activities going on besides the usual right now -- graduations, weddings, vacations, sports -- that's when planning ahead with a Gluten-Free Diet Menu Plan is even more helpful.
  
  Gluten-Free Trail Mix Makes Healthy Snacks
  
  Preparing healthy snacks is usually time-consuming The good news is that not every snack has to be complicated or time-consuming to be healthy. Gluten-free trail mix can be as healthy as you want it to be. Quick to make. Quick to pack. Easy to carry. Nutrition on the go. Those are good reasons to make some with your own favorite ingredients.
  
  Gluten-Free Oatmeal Applesauce Snack Cake
  
  If you are like we are at my house, everyone is looking for snacks.
  
  Personally, I like snacks that are healthier and good too!
  
  To accomplish that, I usually try to make something with more fiber and less refined sugar so I won't worry about "health issues" when the “munchies” attack.
  
  The applesauce, oatmeal and raisins in this recipe provide fiber, vitamins and other "health conscious" nutrients. And, to make it sweet, the fructose sugar in the apples and raisins provide a positively lovely, delicate sweetness and aroma. The brown rice syrup adds more sweetness and helps the bars stick together.
  
  This snack cake is easy to make. It works well for snacks, lunch boxes and it even works well with yogurt. Of course, it's a "no-brainer" to have or serve it with a big glass of milk.
  
  Gluten-Free Diet Menu Plan for the Week of June 2, 2013
  
  It's finally June and summer is just around the corner...

  In fact, I've planned two cookouts in the gluten-free diet menu plan this week. So, we'll have gluten-free hot dogs one evening and gluten-free hamburgers another evening.
  
  Beef Round Steak and Vegetables in the Slow Cooker for an Old-Fashioned Dinner Delight
  
  Gluten-free and Gluten-y family members alike will all absolutely love this beef round steak with vegetables from the crock pot recipe.
  
  It's a classic stick-to-the-ribs family-style meal that is every bit as good as your favorite stew... And, you can thicken the delicious broth that you'll get after simmering for several hours in your slow cooker into a silky-smooth gravy that will make the meal even better.
  
  This meal only takes 20-minutes or so to put together and then can simmer for as long as necessary... Whatever that means in your world. It's a low preparation-time recipe that you and your whole family are sure to enjoy.
