Chicken & Lettuce Wraps, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. Just a note before I proceed: I received a couple passionate email comments regarding our recent eBay auctions and our adoption that demonstrated that our fund raiser was offensive to a few members of our GF and adoptive community.

Easy, cheap GF Caramel for your apples, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. We picked up some delicious Jonagold apples this week. They are perfectly crunchy with a perfect balance of tart and sweet. Since they are not the sweet, sugary kind – and it is caramel apple season, after all, I thought I’d make a [...]

GF: Curried Pumpkin and Corn Soup, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. Oh yea. I have a wicked cold. It’s not too fun, all things considering. I was going to grade tests today, but my focus is somewhere lost in the haze that resides around by brain at the moment. Oh… I hate having brain fog. [...]
Gluten Free Apple & Carrot Mini Muffins
October 9, 2008 14 Comments
Today was errand day. On the way home from work, I dreamed of taking a nap. I’ve caught the ubiquitous “Welcome Back to School” sinus infection. Thinking clearly is not my strong suit. This statement is more true than false, especially between about 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM. I don’t know why. My gray matter [...]
Gluten Free: Breakfast on the go

Oh, breakfast. Why do you have to come so early in the day? I’m not a fan of eating in the morning. However, I know that I should eat something to kick off the day. After getting moving in the gym, I’ve noticed that eating a bit of something really does help. Now I pack [...]

Pie-in-a-pumpkin, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. Yesterday I got home from school earlier than I had all week. In fact, I got home in time to take the dog on a quick one-mile walk AND go to the grocery store before my love got home. Sadly, this means that my backpack is also BURSTING with [...]

GF: Chirashi Sushi Salad, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. Celebration/Survival Dinner. Not a celebration of anything monumental in MY life, just survival of the first week of school and 7 nights of 4 hours of sleep. Dang, going back to school is *hard*! This simple salad was the best way to celebrate Friday night. Really. [...]
Make your own Tzatziki (gluten-free, of course)
September 4, 2008 8 Comments
The other day while flying around like a maniac, a craving hit me for tzatziki like no other. When we lived in Chicago, this little craving of mine would have been easily settled. Living here? In a small town in the Pacific Northwest? Not so easy. But making tzatziki *IS* easy! No worries. But first, [...]
