Gluten free Christmakah: GF Lasagna, GF Potato Latkes and GF Chocolate Pudding Pie

This holiday season I spent the time with husband's family in the Midwest - Milwaukee to be exact.  This has got to be one of the most #glutenfree friendly cities around!  From high end restaurants like Roots to the Bradley Center's gluten-free kiosk, to an abundance of GF options at local grocery stores like Metcalfe's Sentry, Pick-N-Save and Outpost, I had no troubles finding good gluten-free eats.

Our Christmas/Chanukah dinner consisted of gluten-free lasagna and freshly made potato latkes.  However, these recipes take a lot of time...so if you are willing to devote the time, you will have some good rewards!  The potato latkes took about 2 hours from start to plate, but came out really good.

The best part was the dessert.  It was my first time making this pie, with a special recipe from my sister-in-law (recipe coming as soon as she emails it to me!) to make fresh creamy chocolate pudding with Kinninnick gluten-free graham style crumbs.  And I have to say wow - the guests loved it and especially made comments about how good the crust was!  The only thing I would have added would be some whipped cream to top it off.

Hope you enjoy these dishes.

Gluten-free Burgers, Fries AND Onion Rings - Oh My!

On a recent work trip to Atlanta, my team and I went out to lunch at Yeah! Burger, and I have to say it should be named OH YEAH! Burger because it was just so great to feel "normal" at a Burger joint. 

The burger comes however you want it and on Gluten free bread - pretty good too as it wasn't too flaky or rubbery.  And you can get a ton of delicious fried foods - normally off limits to us - and they even combine together the fries and onion rings into the "50/50."  

Yum all around...great place to take your family and friends.  They have indoor and outdoor seating.
