It sounds silly, but one of the foods that I really miss since going on a gluten-free diet is the very low-brow and delicious jalapeno popper.

Baked Samosas (gluten-free or not)
Samosas are really supposed to be deep-fried and they are also supposed to be in a little triangular pouch. My version is baked and they are in a half circle (like an empanada), but they are still delicious. Baked samosas stay yummy for a few days where as anything deep-fried needs to be eaten right…
Garam Masala Baked Chicken with Pickled Plums
I am very, very pleased with this dinner. I have made this chicken recipe a few times before. It’s from a Food and Wine Annual Cookbook (2007) that my mum gave me for Christmas a while back, but I have made a few changes… I use my favourite Garam Masala recipe instead of the one…
Coronation Chicken Salad
I have posted this recipe before, but it was buried in another post I wanted it to be easier to find for the folks who are looking for the recipes from the wedding picnic menu. I usually poach my chicken for this recipe which also produces a wonderful chicken broth. However, since we were multiplying this…
Collard Greens with Roux and Andouille Sausage (Gluten-Free or not)
I like to make collard greens for brunch on the weekend. I love making weekend brunch. My kitchen is sunny and beautiful, my favourite radio programs are on, I have gotten enough sleep, and if everything is going the way I prefer I don’t have anywhere to go for a while. My method for making…
Braised Goose with Port and Vegetables
Our friend Kerthy threw a second Thanksgiving on New Years and it was a big success. We had a turkey, goose, rabbit (or was it a squirrel?), cornbread stuffing, green beans, yams, green salad, apple pie, pumpkin pie and a lovely group of happy, thankful people. Hooray! This is the second time I have made…
Turkey or Chicken Keema
This is from Quick and Easy Indian Cooking by Madhur Jaffrey. For more info on this book look under the cookbooks tab. Keema is usually made with ground lamb but this recipe calls for ground chicken or turkey. It tastes MUCH better after a day in the fridge, making it not only quick and…
Cranberry Brisket with Parsnip & Carrot Latkes and Spiced Cabbage
My Cranberry Brisket is adapted from Sheila Lukins recipe for Shaker Cranberry Brisket in her USA cookbook. I have added wine to the recipe and I am pretty sure that Shakers don’t drink so…… I also skip the cloves and add five spice powder instead. Either one is good. Brisket is a tough but flavourful…
Curried Turkey Pot Pie (Gluten-free or not)
Some years I entertain the idea of skipping Thanksgiving Turkey. As I have mentioned before, the process of roasting turkeys stresses me out. However, I am very attached to making this dish out of the leftover meat, so I make the turkey. Sometimes I even make a turkey for Christmas or New Years so that…
Thanksgiving Entrées for Herbivores and Carnivores
WILD MUSHROOM COBBLER This is a vegetarian entrée from The New Vegetarian Epicure by Anna Thomas (more info under the cook book tab). It is supposed to serve 6-8 but I double the recipe for 8 people because everyone loves this and goes for seconds and I don’t mind having some leftovers at all. I have sadly…
