Gluten is the protein found in spelt, barley, and wheat, which people who have celiac disease cannot tolerate. These appetizers are naturally gluten-free. One example of a gluten free appetizer is a mini-egg frittatas that are made with minced vegetables, bacon bits, and cheese. When you use crackers to put appetizers on read the ingredients to make sure that they are made using rice flour. These crackers can be wheat or cheese flavored. Before making the appetizers, use a recipe book that contains only gluten free recipes because with other recipes you will have to read them carefully to make sure that they do not contain ingredients like wheat. Fruit and cheese plate This is a simple appetizer and can be served with a fruit dip that is cream cheese based to add a little more sweetness to the fruit appetizers. It is best that you make your own because the ones in the store could contain ingredients that are wheat-based. You could also make a caramel-based fruit dip but do not buy it in the store ready-made because the caramel color could be wheat based. Homemade caramel is gluten free naturally. Other simple gluten free appetizers • Shrimp with homemade cocktail sauce of horseradish and ketchup • Tortilla chips with fresh guacamole and tomato salsa • Vegetable sticks with hummus • Asparagus spears that are wrapped in prosciutto, which is a thinly sliced, uncooked Italian dry-cured ham. All you need to do is warm it in the oven. • For a spicy appetizer make buffalo chicken wings with a hot sauce dip you make yourself • Using slice turkey and cream cheese, put them on a romaine lettuce left and make roll-offs. If they are too big you can cut them in two or three pieces and secure them using toothpicks • Cheese and dips served with bread • Brie cheese on baguette slices that are toasted Appetizer ingredients to avoid Some ingredients should be avoided when making appetizers that are gluten free because they can be manufactured with wheat. • Barbeque and Worcestershire sauce because of the caramel coloring • Soy sauce unless it is certified as being one One important thing to note is that if you decide to make appetizers that are not gluten free and some that are, do not use the same utensils for both appetizers because there is a risk of cross-contamination. To help avoid this make the gluten free appetizers first and mark them as such. If you are someone who is looking for the gluten free restaurants in San Diego then I recommend that you visit 2Good2B Bakery. This San Diego gluten free bakery is much appreciated for the variety of food it serves. 2Good2B® is your source for Gluten, Corn and Soy Free foods that help you feel and live your absolute best.

TORTILLA SOUP WITH TOPPINGS

Home » Food and Drink » Soups Join Sign in EzineArticles - Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Original Articles Search Harriet Hodgson Diamond Quality Author Diamond Author | 1,062 Articles Joined: May 26, 2005 United States Grandma's Easy Tortilla Soup With Toppings By Harriet Hodgson | Submitted On December 07, 2012 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Share this article on Facebook Share this article on Twitter Share this article on Google+ Share this article on Linkedin Share this article on StumbleUpon Share this article on Delicious Share this article on Digg Share this article on Reddit Share this article on Pinterest Expert Author Harriet Hodgson As much as I love soup, in my opinion good soup is hard to make. You need the right ratio of ingredients, the right seasonings, and the right accompaniments. I've had Tortilla Soup in Mexico and Mexican restaurants. This soup comes close to the authentic version that I have enjoyed. In fact, I think the recipe I devised is so good I sent it to my college-age grandson. He shares an apartment with three friends and is the only one who loves to cook. This recipe is a quick one and if you don't have time to chop onions, you may use frozen ones or even dehydrated. Since I try to eat healthy, I used 93% lean hamburger, reduced sodium vegetable juice, and reduced sodium taco seasoning. For the topping I used reduced fat sour cream. If you want a more authentic Mexican dish, buy some yellow corn tortillas, cut them into thin strips, coat them with baking spray, and bake them in a 400-degree oven until crisp. Use these strips instead of crumbled taco chips I try to cook ahead on weekends. If you want to cook ahead, make the soup and freeze it without the garnishes. Serve this flavorful soup with a tossed green salad and the dessert of your choice. Here is my original recipe for Grandma's Easy Tortilla Soup with Toppings. 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 pound lean hamburger 1 medium onion, chopped 1 small red pepper, chopped 1 small green pepper, chopped 15.25-ounce can of corn with liquid 16-ounce carton of chicken stock (I used salt-free.) Two 1.25-ounce envelopes of taco seasoning. (Use one and half of the other.) 1/2 cup salsa of your choice (I used medium hot.) Salt, if you think the soup needs it Crumbled taco chips Shredded Cheddar cheese (I used reduced fat.) 1 ripe avocado, chopped Sour cream Coat the bottom of a soup kettle with olive oil. Crumble hamburger and saute until brown. Add chopped vegetables, corn, chicken stock, vegetable juice, taco seasoning, and salsa. Cover and simmer over low heat for half an hour. Garnish each serving with shredded Cheddar cheese, crumbled taco chips, ripe avocado, and dollops of sour cream. You may also garnish the soup with wedges of lime. Makes 8 generous servings.

BLUEBERRY BREAKFAST TART

Home » Food and Drink » Recipes Join Sign in EzineArticles - Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Original Articles Search Harriet Hodgson Diamond Quality Author Diamond Author | 1,062 Articles Joined: May 26, 2005 United States Blueberry Breakfast Tart By Harriet Hodgson | Submitted On September 13, 2016 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Expert Author Harriet Hodgson When I was a child there were no baking mixes. No cake from a box, no muffins either, and no pie crust. Home cooks made everything from scratch. My mother was an excellent baker and I learned the basic skills from her. At 16 years of age, I was making made-from-scratch French chocolate layer cake for church suppers, a fact I can hardly believe myself. Even when mixes were available, my mother was still a scratch cook. Over the years I've followed here example, but do use some commercial products, such as a baking mix. These mixes are pretty much the same: flour, shortening, salt, dehydrated milk, and a leavening agent. Reduced fat mixes are also available.The reduced fat baking mix has about 40 percent less than all-purpose mix. Using a mix saves some time. You don't have to measure flour, or shortening, or leavening. If I use a mix, I try to make it my own by adding different ingredients, changing the method, and in some instances, changing the pan size. Minnesota mornings are getting chiller and I wanted to eat something warm from the oven. I decided to use a baking mix and the last of some blueberries in the refrigerator. Although I started with a crumb cake recipe, I used a sugar substitute, spreadable butter product, unsweetened applesauce and, of all things, a packet of instant oatmeal with apples and cinnamon. It turned out well and we enjoyed it. Kids will enjoy this too. INGREDIENTS 1 1/3 cups baking mix 3/4 cup sugar substitute (or granulated sugar) 1 cup fresh blueberries 1 tablespoon spreadable butter 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce 1 large egg, room temperature 3/4 cup fat-free milk 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 1 packet instant oatmeal with apples and cinnamon 2 tablespoons cold butter METHOD 1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Coat 9 1/2" layer cake pan with cooking spray. 2. Whisk baking mix and sugar substitute (or sugar) together in a batter bowl. Add rinsed blueberries into this mixture. 3. Stir in spreadable butter and applesauce. 4. Beat egg with fork and add milk and vanilla extract. 5. Combine this mixture with the other ingredients. 6. Transfer to prepared pan. 7. Cut top off oatmeal packet and sir contents with spoon. Sprinkle half of the oatmeal over coffee cake and dot with cold butter. 8. Bake 35 minutes, or until tart starts to pull away from pan. Makes 8 servings. http://www.harriethodgson.com Harriet Hodgson has been a freelancer for 37 years and is the author of 35 books. Her latest releases are Happy Again!

TOMATO RAVIOLI SOUP

Home » Food and Drink » Recipes Join Sign in EzineArticles - Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Original Articles Search Harriet Hodgson Diamond Quality Author Diamond Author | 1,062 Articles Joined: May 26, 2005 United States Easiest Tomato-Ravioli Soup Ever By Harriet Hodgson | Submitted On September 06, 2016 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Expert Author Harriet Hodgson The pasta sauce section of my grocery store keeps expanding. There are tomato sauces, cream sauces, and envelope mixes. I love to cook and enjoy making my own pasta sauce, but some days I just don't have the time. That's when I reach for a jar on the shelf. Most jarred sauces contain 24 ounces, a handy size for my family. To personalize the sauce I add something extra, eight ounces of cooked pork sausage, or a half box of sliced button mushrooms, or a half cup of pepperoni, cut into half-moon shapes. Fresh basil perks up a commercial sauce. If you're having trouble getting kids to eat their veggies, add a grated carrot. Commercial sauces may be used for pasta dishes, as a base for casseroles, and soups. For soup, I use tomato-basil or Marinara sauce. Before I put anything in my grocery cart I read the nutrition label. Some manufacturers add extra salt to compensate for inferior ingredients. Others add high fructose corn syrup, which makes the sauce too sweet. Extra garlic can also be a problem. According to an article on the Epicurious website, "Pasta Sauce Taste Test" by Carolina Santos-Neves, authentic Italian sauce doesn't contain any garlic. Epicurious conducted a blind taste of 27 brands of jarred sauces. The best overall sauce was Rao's Marinara. Lidia's Marinara sauce was the first runner-up. The second runner-up was Monte Bene Garlic Marinara. The low rated sauces were Ragu (the tasters thought it tasted like ketchup), Gefen, a brand I've never heard of, and Lucini, which I don't think is available in my area. Consumer Reports also tested jarred sauces. Trained testers sampled 20 brands and reported the results in a website article, "Best Pasta Sauces." They felt that Giada De Laurentis' sauce, available only at Target, was fresh tasting, had buttery richness, and balanced flavor. "Don't assume that all sauces by a particular manufacturer will be of similar quality." the article warns. After checking calories, fat content, sodium, sugars, fiber, calcium, and iron, Giada De Laurentis' sauce, which is made with fresh tomatoes, received the highest rating. Since I have high blood pressure and am salt sensitive, I buy the brand with the least amount of salt. Although I can't remember the brand I used for this recipe, it was Marinara sauce. Making the soup took less than 15 minutes. We had it twice for lunch, and I ate the last of the soup for lunch again. If the members of your family like spaghetti, they will like this soup. INGREDIENTS 1 jar Marinara sauce 1 jar water 1 tablespoon reduced sodium chicken base bouillon 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon dried basil 1 cup mini cheese ravioli (a dry product) Grated Parmesan cheese (fresh is best) METHOD Pour sauce into soup pot. Swish out the jar with water and add to soup pan. Add garlic powder. Rub dried basil with your hands to bring out flavor and add to soup. Bring to a boil. Stir in cheese ravioli, reduce heat, and simmer until tender. Ladle into bowls and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese. Makes 6-8 servings. http://www.harriethodgson.com Harriet Hodgson has been a freelancer for 37 years and is the author of 35 books. Her latest releases: Happy Again!
