I Can’t Believe How Good These Waffles Are
I cannot tell you how many gluten/wheat free flour mixes I have concocted over the years to try to get the taste and texture right. Many times, my husband has walked in on me amidst one of these undertakings and commented that it looked like a science experiment was going on in our kitchen. Recently, I perfected (yes, I believe so) the gluten-free wheat free waffle/pancake flour mixture. I hope you enjoy this as much as we have!

Purchasing the flours in bulk is a small upfront investment, but is a savings in the long run.

When ready to make waffles
- Rice milk
- Olive oil
Instructions
- Combine flour mixture ingredients in an airtight container and shake/mix until well combined. Store in pantry until ready to use.
- Mix about 1 to 1 1/2 cups rice milk and 1 tablespoon of oil per cup of flour mixture until well blended. I prefer my mixture a a little thinner. Pour into heated waffle iron (recommended), or pour into a heated and greased nonstick pan, 1-2 minutes per side.
Notes
- Serve with maple syrup (although my 5- yr old loves the waffles so much that she doesn't even ask for the syrup! My husband still goes for the syrup, though.)

Easy Peasy Vinaigrette Dressing
This is an incredibly simple, yet tasty vinaigrette staple at our house. When I serve this on salad to friends and family (non-allergy ones), I can expect to get many compliments and someone will undoubtedly ask for the recipe, as was the case this past weekend from my mother-in-law. I’m almost afraid to admit to how easy this is to make (well, not really – I like sharing the easy things in life).
Toss with spring mix, lettuces, chopped kale (kale salad recipe forthcoming), a variety of greens, etc. I use it on an allergy-free ham spring roll that I often make for my 5-year old to take to lunch on school days (recipe also forthcoming).
Easy Peasy Vinaigrette Dressing
2015-02-08 08:50:52
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar (I like Bragg's)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Combine brown sugar, vinegar, and salt in a glass container (I like to use a glass measuring cup) and microwave for about 60 seconds. Stir until dissolved. Then add olive oil.
Notes
- Halve ingredients if you need less dressing. A little goes a long way. I usually make the full recipe and keep in the refrigerator for up to a couple of weeks, and add olive oil as I use the dressing.
- Toss with spring mix, lettuces, chopped kale (kale salad recipe forthcoming), a variety of greens, etc. I use it in an allergy-free ham spring roll that I often make for my 5-year old to take to lunch on school days.

Sauteed Broccoli Tastes So Good
Yes, broccoli can be delicious! This simple recipe is a hit with my 5-year old daughter and other children, too. A place in my heart glows when I hear my daughter say “I love broccoli” – thanks to this easy recipe.
Sauteed Broccoli
2014-12-31 14:37:35
Ingredients
- One to two heads broccoli (depending on the size of your crowd), chopped
- About a tablespoon olive oil
- A couple of cloves fresh garlic, chopped
- Salt to taste (about half to one teaspoon)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil and garlic over medium heat for a few minutes until garlic becomes fragrant and flavors the oil. Add broccoli and salt. Toss until the oil coats broccoli. Cover and continue cooking for about 2 to 4 minutes.
Notes
- The key is to cook until broccoli is just done. Overcooking or undercooking could yield less than desirable results. If it didn't turn out perfectly the first time, give it another shot. Once you've made this a couple of times, you'll be able to judge when it's just right, and you'll be happy that you have this skill under your belt.
