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:
http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/fiesta-taco-casserole/82ac699d-cc07-44e7-9e34-30d3c56718e8

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.

Crock pot Sweet and Salty Pork

First, I'm not good at recipe writing.  I'm a cook/create on the fly kind of gal... so if I post a 'recipe' here, it can only sort of loosely be called that.

This is what's in the crock pot right now.

Sweet and Salty Pork

Pork loin or pork butt
Enough water to almost cover
A good splash of Tamari sauce (real fermented soy sauce and usually Gluten Free)
A shake of ground mustard (or a squirt of prepared mustard)
A good shake of garlic powder (everything is better with garlic powder...)
Generous slurp of honey

Toss in the crock pot and cook on low for at least 6 hours.  I just sampled a little... yummy....

Breakfast in a muffin liner

We tried Scrambled Egg Sausage Muffins today.  I wasn't a big fan.  They taste like you think they will - like scrambled eggs that are overdone (because they are baked) with sausage and cheese inside.  I do not think I overcooked these - I think that this is what eggs baked in the oven with no milk added taste like.

Highlights about this recipe:
Gluten Free
Sugar Free

Do you have a delicious breakfast recipe?  I'd love to try it!  Post it in the comments section, please!
