This super easy gluten free chicken salad is one of my favorite summer lunches! It is quick to make and doesn’t require you to turn on the oven! Which I love since I live in AZ!
HERE’S WHAT I LIKE TO PUT IN MY GLUTEN FREE CHICKEN SALAD:
This version of my chicken salad is also keto but I have included optional add-ins if you like! 4 Cups of diced gluten free rotisserie chicken or precooked chicken 1/2 Cup diced pecans 1 Cup Mayo 1 TBSP Mustard 2 Stalks of Celery that are diced. 1 Pinch Salt (or seasoned salt) and Pepper 1 Pinch Herbs de Province 3 Green onions chopped Here are some other ingredients you might like to add: chopped grapes, dried cranberries, or chopped peppers. You can be creative and add any other ingredients you like! If you add a lot more items, you might have to add more mayo. Especially if you are like me and like it creamy! HERE’S HOW EASY IT IS TO MAKE THIS DELICIOUS CHICKEN SALAD: Chop all of the ingredients that need to be chopped. Put them all in a bowl. Add in the rest of the ingredients. Stir to combine. You can chill it in the fridge for a while if you like. However, you can also eat it right away too! Serve it with some gluten free bread for a sandwich, in between two big pieces of pepper for a lower carb sandwich, with sliced cucumbers to keep it low carb, or on it’s own in a bowl with a fork. ?

Hey there! Today we’re making my Gluten Free Rolled Taquitos Recipe. It is super easy to make and easy for the whole family to enjoy! I love to pair it with my Pico De Gallo which is easy to make as well!
HERE’S THE INGREDIENT LIST TO MAKE THIS GLUTEN FREE ROLLED TAQUITOS:
Gluten-free Tortillas Cheddar Cheese Cumin Garlic or Garlic Powder Chili Powder SALSA CHICKEN 4 Chicken Breasts 11 oz jar of Salsa of your choosing Note: if you want you can use ground beef instead of chicken . HERE’S HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN FREE ROLLED TAQUITOS: First prep your Salsa Chicken. SALSA CHICKEN:Place your Chicken Breasts and Salsa into your Instant Pot on the poultry setting. Allow it to cook, release your steam, and set it aside. Shred the chicken with either two forks or a pair of kitchen shears. Add the spices and stir. Prepare a Baking Sheet with cooking spray. Warm your Tortillas with olive oil or avocado oil in a pan on medium heat but don’t make it crispy or you won’t be able to roll them. They will break. Fill your Warm Tortilla with drained Chicken and some cheese. You can also use dairy free cheese if desired. Roll your Tortillas. Place in the prepared baking sheet in a single layer seam side down. Top with cheese. Bake at 375 F until browned. Serve your homemade taquitos! I love to top them with Pico de Gallo and sour cream! SERVE WITH Sour Cream Black Beans or Pinto Beans Mexican Rice Refried Beans-my recipe is almost famous! Green Chiles Pico De Gallo Guacamole Cotija Cheese DO TAQUITOS HAVE GLUTEN IN THEM? I would be careful of the spices in the premade ones because those might not be GF. The big kicker is the tortilla. Make sure they are corn tortillas and not wheat flour tortillas if you have gluten sensitivity or celiac.

I originally had a variation of these wings at my BIL and SIL’s houses. They are my favorite gluten free and keto wings! I love to cook them on the grill! They have lots of flavor and are very mild. This is an easy recipe and the best part is that you can marinate them ahead of time and then grill, bake or air fry them later!
HERE ARE THE WAYS TO COOK THESE GLUTEN FREE AND KETO WINGS:
You can cook these wings in an oven on a sheet pan, in an air fryer basket in the air fryer or on a bar b q grill. The cooking time will vary depending on which way you choose to cook them. HERE’S THE INGREDIENTS TO MAKE THESE WINGS: You will need the following ingredients to make these delicious gluten free chicken wings . 3 lbs of wings- I like to mix drummettes and flats. 2 TBSP Italian Seasoning 1/3 cup of Tamari or gluten free soy sauce. 1/3 cup of Coconut Aminos 1/2 cup EVOO 3 TBSP Apple Cider Vinegar A TSP of Onion Powder 1 TSP Garlic Powder 1 Handful Fresh parsley Salt and Black Pepper to taste ARE THESE WINGS KETO, LOW CARB OR PALEO? Yes, they are! There is no added sugar in this recipe so they are keto and low carb. To make them paleo, switch out the tamari for extra coconut aminos. HERE’S HOW TO MAKE THESE GLUTEN FREE CHICKEN WINGS: The first step is to buy fresh wings or make sure they are thawed. Pat the raw wings dry with a paper towel and set them aside. Sprinkle them with Salt and Pepper. Combine all of the marinade ingredients into a bowl. Stir to combine. Put the wings into a large resealable plastic bag or a large glass dish with a lid. Pour the marinade over the wings. They can marinate for up to 24 hours. When you are ready to cook them, start your grill on medium heat to medium-high heat if you are grilling. You will need to watch them constantly because they can burn quickly. Turn them frequently to prevent burning. Once they are cooked you can move them off of the grill grates and keep them warm by covering them with aluminum foil until you are ready to serve. If you are cooking them in the air fryer, place chicken wings on a single layer. Fry them in batches to not over crowd the basket. Heat the air fryer to 350 degrees. Cook the wings for 20 minutes turning them every 5 minutes. If the air fryer chicken wings still have soggy skin, crank the temperature up to 425 and air fry them for an additional 2 minutes. If you are baking them in the oven put them on a sheet pan with nonstick foil lining at 400 degrees. They will cook in about 40 minutes. Turn them halfway through cooking. To get the chicken skin crispy, you can use a wire rack inside the baking sheet. Regardless of your cooking method, cook them to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
I hope you love my favorite wings as much as I do!

Hey there! Today we’re making Gluten Free Pork Shashlik, or pork skewers. Perfect for when you’re in the mood for delicious grilled kabobs. These have such a delicious flavor and are perfect to pair with grilled vegetables!
HERE’S THE INGREDIENTS TO MAKE THIS GLUTEN FREE PORK SHASHLIK:
2 1/2 LBS Pork Roast, cut into cubes (1) 12 oz jar of Mayo (10) small Yellow Onions, minced ~1 TSP Salt and Black Pepper, to taste HERE’S HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN FREE PORK SHASHLIK: Cut your pork into 1-inch cubes. Put your pork cubes, minced onions, and mayo in a Ziploc bag, bowl, or container and allow it to marinate for 1-2 days. If you are using a bowl, use plastic wrap to cover the opening or a lid. Put your marinated pieces of pork on wooden skewers, bamboo skewers, or metal skewers. Grill them on a gas grill until cooked on medium to high heat. Serve with grilled veggies! I like to grill summer squash, zucchini, eggplant, and peppers with it. WHAT IS SHASHLIK KEBAB? According to the Wiki, is grilled skewered cubes of meat. It’s similar to shish kebabs. It became popularly known as shashlik because of Russia and former Soviet Republics. Traditionally, it’s made with lamb, but you can use pork meat, beef, venison, chicken breasts, or whatever meat you desire! This recipe is not based on traditional Russian pork kebabs though. My friend Inna, who we sailed with a few years ago, told me about this recipe her family, who is from the Ukraine made. It is one of our favorites!
What pork meat is the best to use for shashlik?
You want tender meat like pork tenderloin or pork shoulder. Pork Chops will be good because we marinated it. Pork butts will work if you lower your heat from high heat to medium heat. I do not recommend pork belly for this recipe. My favorite is the pork shoulder with a little higher fat than the pork chop or tenderloin. What do you serve with shashlik? Bell Peppers- a classic kebab side. Spring Onion- for a more mild flavor than yellow onions. A medium onion will do. Red Onion- for a shaper, spicer flavor than yellow onions. Depending on how many you make, you may need large onions. Pineapple Chunks-for a more tropical twist on your shashlik. Fresh pineapple would be my preference but canned will do just fine. Potato Salad- easy to make. French fries- they go with everything! Check out my recipe for homemade fries, here. Gluten Free Bread Rolls- perfect if you are not doing keto or low carb. Gluten Free Homemade Bread- perfect for if you want a sandwich variation or your shashlik. Depending on what your sides are, this recipe is paleo and keto! How to prepare your grilled veggies?Olive Oil and S&P- slather them to get a nice grill on them. Lemon juice- this may not be an acidic marinade, but the lemon will bring out great flavor in your veggies. Salt and Pepper- to taste. IF YOU LIKE THIS RECIPE YOU MIGHT ALSO ENJOY THESE: GLUTEN FREE TEXAS CAVIAR– super flavorful and would pair well with your shashlik.

Gluten Free Pork Shashlik prep time: 20 MINUTES cook time: 15 MINUTES total time: 35 MINUTES This gluten free pork shashlik is delicious and is a perfect kabob to pair with grilled veggies! It's also keto and paleo! Ingredients

This easy gluten free egg drop soup is one of my favorite quick meals! It’s almost Chinese New Year and I think this would be a great addition to your celebration dinner!
HERE’S THE INGREDIENTS TO MAKE THIS Recipe!
4 Cups Chicken Stock- The broth is important because it adds so much flavor! 2 TBS Cornstarch (optional for keto) 1 TSP Ground Ginger 1/2 TSP Garlic Powder 3 Eggs A drizzle of Toasted Sesame Oil 3 Green Onions, thinly sliced, plus extra for garnish 1/4 c Lemon Juice or Juice From a Lemon if you like it lemony Salt and Pepper to taste Here’s how I made this recipe:Whisk the Broth, Cornstarch, Ginger, and Garlic Powder in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Add Sesame Oil. Stir. Add Lemon Juice. Stir. Whisk your Eggs in a bowl. Once the broth is at a simmer, create a whirlpool with a fork or whisk and slowly pour your Eggs into the Soup as you stir to create egg tendrils. Remove the pan from heat. Stir in Green Onions, Salt, and Pepper. Serve with sprinkled Green Onions. Enjoy! Is Egg Drop Soup Keto? Other recipes use corn and sugar in their Egg Drop Soup but if you omit it like we are in this recipe, it’s perfect for keto. I only used 2 TBSP of cornstarch for this recipe which is a total of 14 carbs. You also have the option of leaving it out. The soup will not be as thick but it will still be delicious! Cornstarch AlternativesEven though I only used 2 TBS, the cornstarch is the most keto unfriendly part of this recipe so here are a few alternatives, you can read more about them here! Glucomannan Powder- it’s tasteless and has only 5 carbs. Xanthan gum- great for soups, smoothies, and more and it’s 0 net carbs! Coconut Flour-you’ll need to make it into a slurry in order to add to this soup but it’ll add a sweetness and slight coconut flavor when you’re done if you’re looking to remix the recipe. Is Egg Drop Soup good for when you’re sick? Yes! I love it as an alternative to Chicken Noodle or Chicken Zoodle soup! It’s a great way to get nutrients from broth, lemon juice, and eggs. I don’t know the science behind it but it makes me feel better! It could just be that it’s easy to eat and warm and comforting! lol. Pin this NOW for later...

Do you have Halloween traditions in your family? I have to be honest, Halloween is not my favorite holiday. However, I love making festive foods for every holiday! When our girls were little we always dressed up as a family theme. Once they became teenagers that didn’t happen as much! I always made a pot of chili and we invited our friends and family over to sit on our porch and hand out candy. It was a fun way to involve them in taking the kids trick or treating.

Gluten Free Mummy Dogs are super cute and a quick dinner that is perfect before trick or treating!
Gluten free Mummy Dogs are a super cute and easy dinner or appetizer for Halloween! They are ready to eat in less than 30 minutes!
How do I make these super cute gluten free mummy dogs? These dogs are so easy to make! I whipped up a batch of my FATHEAD dough to keep it keto, and wrapped them around all-beef hot dogs to make the mummies! You can use olives or capers to make the eyes:) I tried this recipe first with the thicker sausage and it didn’t work out well. I found that you need to roll the fathead dough pretty thin for it to stay in the mummy shape. Protip- put a little olive oil on your hands before rolling out the dough so it doesn’t stick. If you wanted them not to be keto or low carb, you could use a premade gluten free pie crust and cut it into strips and wrap them around as well. It would also be delicious! What do I need to make this recipe? You will need the following ingredients: All ingredients for fathead dough- cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, almond flour, and an egg. Gluten free hot dogs- just the regular size not the sausage ones. Olives with pimentos. Capers Any dipping sauces you like.
Here’s the recipe:
