Being Gluten-Free is Just Another Trend

Being Gluten-Free is Just Another Trend

By Therese I hear "Oh, you're on that gluten-free kick/trend/fad/thingy" that more times than "please and thank you" when my daughter and I are eating around others.  It's sad, really, that throughout hundreds of fad diets and gimmicks, that the gluten-free lifestyle is sort of looked down upon.  Don't get me wrong--there are products and restaurants that are successful solely because … [Read more...]

Mother Butter’s Popcorn and Confectionary: Best in Chicago

By Therese Mother Butter's is located in Evergreen Park, IL, which is a small, quiet suburb southwest of Chicago.  That makes sense, as the founder and original owner, Tim O'Donnell, is a Chicagoan through and through.  In fact, Tim's mother opened and ran one of the most famous Chicago pizza restaurants in Chicago, Fox's Pub, at 99th & Western in the heart of the Beverly … [Read more...]

The Best and Easiest Gluten Free Chicken Pozole Rojo

The Best and Easiest Gluten Free Chicken Pozole Rojo

By Therese   Pozole (pronounced poze-SOLE-eh) is a traditional Mexican soup that I fell in love with the moment I tried it...but just like most really good homemade dishes, this one takes time.  And it's not super healthy.  And the most authentic recipes call for pork, usually shoulder and feet.  So, traditionalists will probably curse me out (or maybe just scoff) and perhaps … [Read more...]

Graham Elliot’s Lemon Blueberry Bars: A GE recipe adapted to be GF

By Therese Graham Elliot:  One of the world's best chefs, but also one of Chicago's.  I'm totally bragging:  I love that his roots are in my home town so I can enjoy his restaurant (when we splurge) without prefacing it with, "Going to eat at that place is on my list when I travel to..." There is something about his way.  He's got confidence, sure, but there is this … [Read more...]

The Best Easy Traditional Mexican Rice Recipe (aka Mommy’s Rice)-gluten free

by Therese Quick backstory: My mother-in-law is The Queen (La Reina) of Mexican home cooking.  She adapted her traditional Mexican rice recipe for my daughter, who didn't care for the chopped onions and carrots in her dish.  However, she couldn't adapt it enough to keep it gluten-free, so when my girl told me she missed her "Abuelita's Rice," I thought I'd tackle a GF version.  … [Read more...]
