Gluten Free Fireside Pie and Kids In the Kitchen – #BornOnTheFarm
Gluten Free Fireside Pie is the perfect comfort food for March weather. March Break is fast approaching and I don’t know about you but we are likely to be close to home. My older girl is traveling with a youth group, so my younger daughter and I will be hanging out together. Lucky for me, my youngest LOVES to cook and bake with me. I try to encourage that as often as possible. Cooking is a skill for life. This week we made a Gluten Free Fireside Pie together and it was the perfect comfort food for a Friday evening family dinner. March, might be the start of spring, but the…

Gluten Free Lemon Squares – Sweet Indulgence
This month is such a great opportunity to show all your loves how much you care by baking, or making a special meal together. You might even create a sweet indulgence like these Gluten Free Lemon Squares. The winter doldrums won’t hit so hard if you break up the month with treats, and maybe take a break together too. These gluten free lemon treats are pretty easy to make and I happen to love all the lemony snacks as you know by now so these are a big hit with me. We just got back from a wonderful family ski trip to Vermont and loved every minute of it. Road trips and food go…

Post may contain affiliate links as a service to readers. I don’t know about you but I love my slow cooker. It’s a year round powerhouse.

Anything cooked in the crockpot fills the house with the sweet smell of something delicious for dinner. I know my crew loves coming home to that.

Gluten Free Biscuits #GayLeaMom #GlutenFree
I really couldn’t tell you where this gluten free journey would go when I started it at the outset of the summer. It could have gone either way. Last week we went to a cottage with a crowd of family members and although my daughter quit her gluten free diet (it’s impossible to convince a 14-year-old of anything much sometimes) I maintained mine. We gave up on hers for a bit and that’s okay, I think. I wish she had stuck it out, but maybe another time. Anyways I am super stoked to share this gluten free biscuit recipe with you here because it’s proof I have made it. I…

Gluten Free Tarragon Turkey Casserole and a Fiesta #Giveaway ARV $110
This is the story of my love affair with Fiesta Dinnerware. Well, perhaps I exaggerate a little bit. But Fiesta has changed my life. Listen here’s the thing, my friends and family who know me well, know I do not embrace colour very often. I am happy with black and white and tan, mostly with some red thrown in. But Fiesta dinnerware rocked my world earlier this year and now I am changed. I am embracing gorgeous colours now, and cooking with the prettiest lemongrass casserole dishes and I am (gasp) even painting in our house and colouring the walls brightly, claiming this space as our own. I feel so grown…

Gluten Free Pepper Boats Appetizer – Featuring Fiesta Dinnerware
Remember earlier this year when I got a gorgeous batch of sexy new Fiesta dishes in slate? Well, over the summer I have been building my Fiesta collection. It has been such a glorious highlight of the summer. The Fiesta brand is colourful and durable and these dishes make me proud to serve a meal or a special appetizer. That’s what I love about Fiesta. They are traditional with a little hit of fun colour and so much sophistication. Over the summer I was guest pinner on Fiesta’s Pinterest account. And now that I am done that I am here to share two of my newest recipes with you. This…

20 Great Gluten Free Muffin Recipes (Roundup)
20 Great Gluten Free Muffin Recipes: Gluten free is a way of life for an increasing number of adults and children. Luckily gluten free diets and recipes have grown up a lot over the past 10 to 15 years. There was a time when I was gluten free in my twenties when my Crohn’s Disease was really acute and dietary restrictions were helping me stay out of hospital. I tried many gluten free recipes and very few made me happy back then. But now, because of an increasingly large proportion of people who need to eat gluten free, and because of celiac disease there are so many more scrumptious gluten…

Five Easy Gluten Free Lunch Ideas
Gluten free eating is on the grow. Did you know that? In fact over the coming decade it is rumoured that 25 per cent of the population might be eating gluten free. Chances are good, that even if you don’t eat gluten free right now, that someone you know eats gluten free. I recently ran a gluten free roundup here and was shocked at the response to the post. That shows me that many of my readers are gluten free. In fact I was gluten free for several years in my twenties because my Crohn’s Disease was probably at its worst ever back then. I was very limited with what…

My stomach simply seems to respond in a much nicer way. In fact I am on again off again gluten free here. You know the story…
