Something new to post A new recipe at 4pawsartstudio….
Since I began the gluten free, dairy free, and soy free lifestyle it’s been slightly challenging to make some changes.
For instance, dairy free sour cream yuck, but Kite Hill is the best one.
Dairy free cream cheese, I’m still looking.
Bread? Everyone on gluten free diet knows bread is irreplaceable. Canyon is the best and can be found at target and whole foods. But there’s others that can be bought through their website which I have not tried. But heard they have less sugar and more healthier and actually tastes like bread.
Back to the gluten free, dairy free chicken meatballs..
I used a recipe from Pinterest and converted it to gluten free and dairy free products.
Here’s the recipe
1 pound ground chicken-or turkey
1 egg
1/2 cup gluten free breadcrumbs
1/2 cup dairy free parmesan
2 tablestoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
black pepper
additional seasoning-Italian seasoning
combine all ingredients and mix together. Roll into small balls. I made this in a crockpot. Put the setting on high, spray crockpot with olive oil, add dairy free butter to the bottom of the pan-a few small slices, add about 1 tablespoon of water to the crockpot before placing the meatballs in it. Cook for about 3 hours. stir halfway through to prevent from burning and sticking, may need to add additional water to the crockpot.
I made a salad with these meatballs. I do not care for gluten free pasta. Having an Autoimmune illness, Rheumatoid Arthritis, I need to eat mostly anything that will help flush out the fluid my body retains.
Salad recipe:
green leaf lettuce
mixed salad greens
dandelion
green onion
apple cut in cubes
lemon salad dressing
mix together and enjoy
