New GF Recipes

Tonight is the eve before I begin a 6 night stretch with one night off. I do my meal preparation beforehand so that I can grab it out of the fridge and go. On my nights on I do two things: work and sleep with time for nothing else.

Many people these days are trying to live on a dime, and shopping at Whole Foods,
co-ops, or other organic grocery stores is too expensive. I myself only by the necessary items that I can't find in the regular grocery stores. I don't buy organic vegetables. I buy veggies at the regular store, bring them home and soak them in white vinegar or Fruit & Veggie wash. They remove all herbicides, pesticides, and impurities as evidenced by the soot and dirt at the bottom of my bowl after cleaning them. All of the ingredients I bought today for my recipes tonight were bought at Wal-Mart with the exception of the macaroni noodles. Wal-Mart has gluten free spaghetti noodles, but not macaroni noodles. Even a large bag of my favorite gluten free Salt & Vinegar Kettle chips are sold for $2.98 at Wal-Mart. A small bag alone at Whole Foods is $3 or 2/$4. 2 small bags= 1 large bag. Don't be fooled by the organic stores!

Many of these recipes I have borrowed and modified from another gluten free blog. I love cheese on everything. Cheese makes the whole world better. I love cilantro so much that I put it in everything, including my salads with romaine lettuce. Tonight I substituted it for fresh basil. I wanted to make the mac n' cheese with healthy turkey bacon, but I didn't see any turkey bacon that wasn't smoked at the store. Unfortunately anything that is smoked is not gluten free! Smoked foods are tasty, but also carry carcinogenics in them.
