GLUTEN-FREE recipes....please share!
Options
I forgot to mention on my initial post that I am trying the gluten free route. I am mainly sticking to fruit, veggies, protein, peanut butter, and occasionally gf cereal! However, I'd like to find some yummy gluten free recipes for things like bread, cake, cupcakes, pizzas, etc. that I can make on special occasions. If you have any...PLEASE SHARE!
Thanks

I got this one off the boards:
Oopsie Rolls (Gluten-Free Buns)
3 large eggs
pinch of cream of tartar (1/8 tsp)
3 ounces cream cheese (Do not soften)
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Separate the eggs and add cream cheese to the yolks. Use a mixer to combine the ingredients together. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff (if you’re using the same mixer, mix the whites first and then the yolk mixture). Using a spatula, gradually fold the egg yolk mixture into the white mixture, being careful not to break down the whites. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray and spoon the mixture onto the sheet, making 6 mounds. Flatten each mound slightly.
Bake about 30 minutes (You want them slightly softer, not crumbly). Let cool on the sheet for a few minutes, and then remove to a rack and allow them to cool. Store in a loosely open sack and allow to rest on the counter before use (otherwise they might be too moist). Can be frozen.
Notes: If you are making these to be savory (for burgers) you can add dry mustard and dill or other seasonings to the yolk mixture. If you want a more sweet roll, add a very small amount of stevia natural sweetener to the yolk mixture.

And google Cauliflower pizza crust, its yummy and fits your criteria (depending on the toppings).0 -
I am supposed to eat gluten free, but it is very difficult and most of the stuff doesn't taste very good. I have had some really horrible things since I have started this. I have found that anything made by Gluten Free Pantry and Pamela's is pretty good. The cookies are pretty tasty, but the texture is a little different. There are some cake mixes too that aren't too bad. I have found the pancake/waffle mix is pretty good. I don't really miss real pancakes.
I struggle to find a good bread though. So far most of them have been pretty awful. I haven't had much luck with pizza either, although a few pizza places are now carrying gluten free crusts. I have had a gluten free pizza at Mellow Mushroom. It was good.
I have tried several gluten free pastas as well. The rice pasta is the worst, some of the corn blends and quinoa pasta is pretty good. Again it doesn't taste bad, but does have a different texture.
Good luck.0 -
honestly, I have celiac and I don't do too many recipes that make things that used to have gluten in them gluten free (they usually are pretty gross and not that healthy). I stick to rice as my carb or corn (like corn tortillas).
Given that, I was pleasantly surprised with the betty crocker gluten free cake mix. Add a little applesauce to it to keep it moist (gluten free stuff tends to be a little dry).
Good luck!0 -
My fav brands are Namaste and The Cravings Place and least fav is Ener-G.
I just crush cornflakes with garlic powder/onion powder, sea salt, pepper and dip chicken breast pieces in egg white and bake for breaded chicken. You need gluten-free cornflakes and I find some organic brand that has no sugar, I think it's called Erwon.
I take ground turkey or ground chicken, mix with some gluten-free toast (I like trader joe's brown rice bread and I toast it) then crumble it in the ground turkey, add ketchup or apple cider vinegar or egg (2 eggs, 2 tsp of other if you like) for the "wet" ingredients, some sea salt, pepper, you can add herbs/seasonings like parsley flakes. And make into patties and cook up. Instead of toast I use brown rice as well. It's so good!0 -

There is a recipe floating around out there for Peanut Butter Cookies. Its 5 ingredients: Peanut Butter, Sugar, Eggs, Vanilla Extract and Baking Soda, I believe. Gluten and Dairy Free. I've had them and they are pretty good. They are not soft, but crumbly. They are actually really good and a tasty substitute when you can't have gluten. If I wasn't such a lover of soft peanut butter cookies, I'd eat nothing but these, and I am not GF so... that should say something. Of course, I don't really eat many cookies these days, but you get the idea.0

For Pizza - Try Chebe Pizza Crust. It's about $3 per box and you can control the toppings. It's really good. Also I just tried Tinkyada brown rice shells last night and my husband (non GF) gobbled them up. Made stuffed shells with low fat ricotta and they were really great. Best GF pasta I've tried yet. One more tip... I have a new Colombian bakery that opened near me and I get these amazing rolls called Pan de Bono. Look it up online. It's naturally gluten free b/c it's made with cassava or tapioca starch. I absolutely love them and Chebe makes "Original Cheese Bread Mix" that is basically the DIY version of them. I subscribe to the Gluten Free on a Shoestring blog and she has some amazing recipes there. Here's a link to the Pan de Bono: http://glutenfreeonashoestring.com/pan-de-bono-its-good-bread/0

If you do a search for gluten-free chocolate cake 209 cals that should bring up a recipe I tried out and posted yesterday0

Generally easy to substitute! I cook almost exclusively gluten free (my boyfriend is a Coeliac) - replace normal flour with gluten free flour (can buy easily from a supermarket)! All proteins are fine. Replace bread with gluten free bread (usually better toasted). It really only gets difficult with eating out! And I have a recipe for chocolate chip cookies that I modified to be gluten free - it's on my blog - only 50 Cal per cookie!
Good luck0 -
I just take an ordinary recipes and substitute the ingredients that contain gluten with gluten free ingredients.0

I highly recommend this cookbook:
http://www.amazon.com/Artisanal-Gluten-Free-Cooking-Kelli-Bronski/dp/1615190031/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1342798195&sr=8-9&keywords=gluten+free+cookbook
It has a recipe for a GF flour mix (expensive initial investment, but keep the components in airtight containers and they will last a long time. Order them on line to save $$). All baked goods I have made from it have been good.
As for pasta, Ancient Harvest quinoa and corn pasta is by far my favorite. The rice flour pastas are slimy and gross. Also, I recently tried the cauliflower pizza crust (google it) and found it to be very tasty.0 -

For sweet treats you may wanna try recipes from Babycakes Cover the Classics. All the recipes are vegan and gluten-free. I bought the book because of some DELICIOUS oatmeal raisin cookies I tried.
Here's link to some info:
