My FIRST gluten-free pie!

This is excluding the pumpkin pie I made last year. I mean...honestly - the filling came out of a can!


My first Gluten Free pie by ~audreydc1983 on deviantART

Earlier that day, I went out and picked blackberries near my apartment building - then I came home, picked all the debris out, washed them (3 times), made the pie crust, mixed the berries with a little flour and some sugar to make the filling, poured in the filling, made the lattice-top, and finally stuffed it in the oven. It took about an hour to cook - and you can't even tell that the pie crust is Gluten Free! For the pie crust, I used Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free All-Purpose Baking Flour.
Joy!

Salads...an art form.

See? food for Gluten-free people AND gluten-eaters can be made in the same kitchen. It is a lot of work, but when you whine about it, it's just plain drudgery.

Here's mine:


Ingredients:
Red-Leaf lettuce, fresh cilantro, pinto beans,carrots, tomatoes, capers, kalamata olives, salami, colby jack cheese - with Goddess Tahini dressing.

Terry's:



Ingredients:
Red leaf lettuce, cilantro, carrots, pinto beans, black olives, tomatoes, sausage, colby-jack cheese - with a non-dairy Ranch dressing. (not that we eat non-dairy; it came free)

Both of them were served with a side of roasted garlic-smeared bread. His was whole wheat, mine was gluten free brown rice bread.

Yummy! Hooooray for big salads!
