Last night's dinner was a gluten free peach and prosciutto pizza. It was a delicious mix of Italian cheeses, thyme, basil, balsamic vinegar, honey, prosciutto, and fresh peaches on a homemade thin crust. #glutenfree #pizza #food🍜 #peaches
The Hummingbirds are enjoying our sunny Oregon day. #birds #Hummingbirds #SpringtimeinOregon
Just finished a busy week and another one is just starting so comfort food was necessary tonight. A copycat version of La Scala's (Beverly Hills)Leon salad, fettuccine with vodka sauce and Italian sausage. Garlic toast on the side. #glutenfree #pasta #fettucini #food🍜 #🍽️
Simple Sundays. Lightly breaded and pan fried Black Sable fish. With it a corn & green bean combo and leftover potato casserole from last night. For dessert, vanilla ice cream, sweetened strawberries with chocolate balsamic & whipped cream. #glutenfree #seafood #strawberries #icecream #food🍜
Emma had a rough day yesterday. Took her to the Vet for another ear infection and to have the doctor take a look at a cyst on her side. 1/2 #dogsofbluesky #dogs #goldenflatcoatx
My Daffodils sadly gave me their last Spring bouquet today but the Strawberry Shortcake season has arrived. Yum! #flowers #daffodils #Spring #glutenfree #strawberries #dessert #food🍜
Husband and I have been busy with Spring yard cleanup and planting so not much cooking going on. But tonight I made marinated lamb chops, twice baked potatoes, copycat 1905 restaurant salads, and dinner rolls. So good. #glutenfree #lamb #food🍜 #🍽️
Happy St Patrick's Day for those celebrating with food, fun and shenanigans. We had corn beef Reuben's (mine on gf mock rye) and Irish Pub Salads. So delicious! #glutenfree #Stpatricksday #cornbeef #sandwiches #pubsalads
A friend is visiting for a few days and she and I made lobster bisque for dinner for the three of us. With it salads with blue cheese dressing and baguettes. So good. #glutenfree #soup #lobster
Tonight's dinner was an Irish style Mac and Cheese cooked in a sauce that included Irish Cheddar, medium Cheddar, and a local gf Red Irish Ale. It was topped with a garlicky toasted panko. With it, sausages and a salad dressed with a tarragon vinegarette. #glutenfree #macncheese #Irish #pasta #food🍜
Sunday Soup. I made a Crock-Pot version of chicken enchilada for tonight's dinner. The broth, chicken, beans, corn, peppers, tomato, cheeses, and Mexican seasonings all combined for a tasty bowl of creamy goodness #glutenfree #soup #food🍜
I made gluten free English Muffins today for tonight's Welsh Rarebit. I like bacon and tomato on my toasted muffin topped with beer cheese sauce. Hubs likes egg instead of the tomato. #glutenfree #baking #Englishmuffins #Welshrarebit #cheese #food🍜
Friday Fish Night. I airfried some Alaskan Pollock after seasoning and dredging in flour, egg, and a panko & bread crumb combo. Homemade bun had tartar sauce, lettuce, and American cheese. I forgot the pickle. Slaw and chips on the side. #glutenfree #fish #sandwiches #baking #bread
Tried a new recipe for a one pan Garlic Butter Beef noodles. Looks like a stroganoff but a very different flavor profile. We enjoyed it. #glutenfree #pasta #food🍜 #🍽️ #onepanmeal
I picked up a petite sirloin tip this week and we had it for dinner last night. After a ten minute rest it was a perfect medium rare (135°F). With it, homemade horseradish sauce, stir fried veggies, salad, and smashed Parmesan topped mini potatoes. Delicious. #glutenfree #food🍜 #🍽️ #beef
Emma and Mac decided to join in the TOT fun. #dogsofbluesky #goldenflatcoatmix #labrador #TOT
Sunday Soup. Tonight's soup was Mexican seafood with veggies. A seafood broth base (Pensey's) with tomato sauce, potatoes, celery, onion, carrots, zucchini, chipotle and 3 kinds of fish. With it beer bread and a Margarita. #glutenfree #soup #seafood #bread #food🍜 #Nationalmargaritaday
Pizza Night. A friend shared a picture of a Detroit pizza she ordered from a place in Reno, NV. I made my OR version of it for our dinner. Topped with mozzarella, pineapple jam, Canadian bacon, bacon, peppers, Parm, & stripes of red sauce on a gf crust. #glutenfree #pizza #🍽️ #🍜
Looks fantastic and a lot like my tuna sub on a homemade bolillo from last night's dinner.
Baking again. Gluten free Mexican Bolillos for tonight's sandwiches. Cooling now but they have that crunchy crust Bolillos are known for. #glutenfree #baking #bread #Mexicanbreads
Dinner and dessert. Baked chicken legs, Garnet yams, my take on the Columbia restaurant 1905 salad, and chocolate peanut butter chip cookies. So delicious and no, the hubs and I didn't eat all those cookies but we could have. Delicious. #glutenfree #🍽️ #food🍜 #baking #cookies
Sausage and cheese muffins. I wrap individually and freeze. They are perfect for a grab and go breakfast or snack after one minute microwave warmup. #glutenfree #muffins #baking #🍽️
Until your dog figures out how to open it. Ours now sits backwards so this boy can't swipe his head over the motion sensor.
I made Blueberry Buttermilk pancakes yesterday . A delicious start to the morning and ridiculously easy to make from scratch. #glutenfree #pancakeday #breakfast #🍽️ #food🍜
