Hi,
My name is Brenda. I went on a Gluten Free Diet February 2012.
I'll be posting my Gluten Free Recipes, Videos and Product Reviews.
Thank you for visiting my blog.
Stuffed Spaghetti Squash ~ Chicken, Mushrooms, Onions and Peppers ~ Gluten Free & Low Carb Cut 2 Spaghetti Squash in half, Scoop out the Seeds Drizzle with EVOO and Season with Salt and Pepper Place cut side down on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Roast in preheated 400* oven for 45-60 minutes or until done Fluff the Squash with a fork In a skillet add EVOO and Saute 1 Onion Sliced 1 Green Pepper Sliced 2 Cans of Mushrooms or Fresh Mushrooms Sliced Salt and Pepper to taste Saute until Transparent add Garlic to taste and cook 1 Minute In a skillet add EVOO Season 2# Chicken Tenders with Salt, Pepper, Garlic and Onion Powder Cook for a couple minutes of each side until golden brown Only cook about 2/3 of the way (They will finish cooking in the oven) In the video I used glass pans I have since switched to reusing the cooking sheet with the parchment paper. Spread 2 TBL of Pizza Sauce in each Squash Half (14 oz Jar Pizza Sauce) Top with the Onion/Mushroom mixture Top with 3 Chicken Tenders Top with some more Pizza Sauce Sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese Bake 400* 10 Minutes Top with Pizza Cheese Blend or Mozzarella Bake an addition 10 minutes or until Cheese is melted and golden brown. If need be broil for 1-2 minutes to get golden brown. Do not over cook otherwise the chicken could get dry. ENJOY!!
All of a sudden we are getting lots of Zucchinis from our Garden. The Zucchinis can get very large over night. I like to use the large ones to make Zucchini Boats. You can use smaller ones as well. This is a very simple dinner that is naturally Gluten Free and Low Carb. Taco Zucchini Boats with Ground Turkey and Black Beans. 2 Large Zucchinis or 4 smaller size Washed, cut ends off and slice in half Scoop out the seeds (I used a Grapefruit Spoon) making sure you don't scrape thru the skin. Place the Zucchinis cut side up on a parchment lined cookie sheet Preheat oven 375* In a Skillet Add: 2 Tbl EVOO 1 small Onion chopped Saute until transparent Add: 1# Ground Turkey (Or Ground Beef) Mix with the Onions and cook until done Add: 1- 10.5 oz Canned Black Beans that have been drained and rinsed 1 Packages of Taco Seasoning Mix (My recipe below on how to make your own. Use 1/3 cup seasoning mix ¾ Cup Water Mix and simmer for 5 minutes or until water has been reduced and thick Stuff the mixture into the Zucchini Boats Sprinkle on Mexican Cheese Blend or any cheese of your choice (As much as you like) Bake for 25-35 minutes. It depends on how big your zucchinis are. Cook until a steak knife goes in easily. Do not over cook otherwise they will get mushy. Served with: Sliced Tomatoes, Banana Peppers Rings, Guacamole, Sour Cream and Salsa Sauce
Make your Own Taco Seasoning Mix ~ I do not add salt ~ Adjust any seasonings to your taste In a Mason jar mix together and give it a good shake: 1 Tbl. Chili Powder 2 tsp. Onion Powder 2 tsp.
