"Shrimp with Yellow Squash"

This is an easy quick recipe. The recipe calls for shallots but I was out so I used Vidalia onion in its stead and it was good. (This recipe is found in Jan's Recipe Book.)  http://www.jansrecipebook.com/

Gluten free, dairy free, and everything else that needs to be free! "Pumpkin Soup"

I feel fall in the air and that makes me happy. Fall is one of my favorite seasons. My "Pumpkin Soup" (recipe in Jan's Recipe Book), is rich and creamy with apple and carrots just enough to enhance its flavor. I haven't made it in awhile and so I am glad I did. (if just to remind myself of how much I liked it).

Gluten Free, Dairy Free, etc.Free "Chicken Strips With Honey Mustard "

(This recipe can be found in Jan's Recipe Book at   http://www.jansrecipebook.com/  ).This is a family favorite which is why I love to make it. It's easy and doesn't take too much time once you get into the hang of it (as often as I do which is a couple times a month). What I have been doing is experimenting with various brands of white rice flour and what I have found so far is that the brands I've used for this recipe have been just fine. That makes me confident that this recipe will be just fine with whatever brand white rice flour people may use. Good luck in having leftovers because like I said it's a family favorite! Happy cooking!

Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Soy free, etc. Free "Banana Nut Bread"

I really love this bread! It can be breakfast, a snack, or dessert and it freezes nicely (sliced that is) to reheat anytime. I had an easy quick dinner earlier. I sauteed shallots, mushrooms, and spinach adding fork whipped eggs, flipping like an omelet when cooked and folding it all in a rice flour tortilla. I guess one could call it a breakfast burrito which I have no problem eating for dinner. Later I found myself with a sweet tooth and remembered I had some frozen slices of my "Banana Nut Bread" (recipe in Jan's Recipe Book) in the freezer. It's amazing how good it is after being frozen. It's as good as the day I made it! So, my sweet tooth has been satisfied!

"Grandma's Mockery Chocolate Cake"

Why do I call it that? Well, my husband loves his grandma's chocolate cake. In fact our wedding cake (the cake part) was made with his grandma's recipe that's how much he loves it. It's an old type buttermilk recipe, so, when I started my diet I knew I would have to create a worthy cake without gluten, refined sugar, dairy etc.. I will admit there were a lot of flops at first (some were so bad I didn't even let him taste them) but I kept trying until finally I created a close replacement. I've gotten the thumbs up from him and let me tell you that says a lot! I just made this cake and again he commented on how good it is. Now you all know the reason for it's name.......I'm about to take a piece to his mother. :)

Gluten-free, Dairy-free, with all my other frees and yes there's Pizza!

Who says you have to have cheese on pizza? Actually because of the cheese factor I thought I was never going to have pizza again when I started this diet. Wrong!! I love my pizza and it's crispy thin crust. So that is what I had tonight for dinner and I feel very satisfied I might add.
