Gluten Free Chicken Nuggets

Cooked up a batch of chicken nuggets the other night based very loosely off this recipe for Gluten Free Nuggets.  I dipped in egg instead of butter and added spices (pepper, lots of garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning). Added potatoes rolled in homemade seasoning salt and olive oil and called it french fries.

Everybody asked for seconds (even the child recovering from the stomach bug).   Sedryn ate more than daddy and he learned to sign "more" just for this occasion.  Sweetness!

Fiesta Taco Casserole by Betty Crocker

I made this dish for our small group last night:

I had to do some editing, obviously.  It took a while to find canned beans and chili that were all natural.  Salsa was a little easier, but I was at the regular grocery store.

Cheese was also an issue.  We're currently eating Trader Joe's shredded cheese, but I didn't look at the ingredients until today.  I'll have to do a bit of research to see if we can continue eating cheese or not!

This dish was super yummy, and I definitely reccomend serving it with tortilla chips since it's a bit saucy and the contrast of textures is great!

We ate Santita's Only $2.00 Tortilla Chips.  It still surprises me when I buy something that is all natural and there's no label that says "All Natural" on it.

Creamy, Chunky Potato Sausage Soup

Dinner: Golden Potato Soup - with a few modifications.  I made enough to serve 8.  I substituted corn for celery.  I used a magic trick to mix the flour and milk (get out your magic tupperware and wand.  Pour milk into tupperware.  Add flour.  Put down wand.  Put lid on  tupperware.  Shake it like you do when you zumba!  Pour mixture into soup.)  I didn't use ham - I used sausage.  And, of course, I added garlic powder. Which should be in practically every savory dish, so add it if in doubt.
My hubby added Frank's Original to spice it up.
Definitely a keeper!  Kids liked it, we loved it!
