Anyways, this hobby took a bit of a turn late last year, when a member of our household was diagnosed with a gluten allergy. This made the weekend cooking projects a bit more challenging, but we were determined to keep trying new things. Thankfully, because of some great websites, apps, food manufacturers and grocery stores, cooking gluten free is 1,000 times easier (and tastier) than it was a few years ago.
Most of my inspiration comes from Pinterest and Googling random ideas. There are 1,000's of awesome gluten-free recipes out there. Unfortunately, there are also a few bad ones. I figured it would be fun to share a few of my family's favorites and give a little credit to the websites that have helped bring a little flavor back to my family's Sunday dinners. Most of these items are pretty quick to make and taste as good, if not better than, the gluten version.
I hope you all enjoy and please feel free to share your favorite gluten-free recipes and websites in the comments below.

7) Taco Corn Bread Casserole (note, this isn't gluten free as written. Replace corn bread mix with a GF version. I used Bob's Red Mill)
9) Sun-Dried Tomato Basil Orzo (be sure to use use GF pasta and olive oil)
10) Gluten Free Garlic Bread
Note:As with any food allergy, please check each and every ingredient you use to be sure it is certified gluten free. Some, or most, of these recipes contain other potential allergens like milk, soy and/or nuts. In other words, be careful and pay close attention to what ingredients you use when cooking for someone with a food allergy.
