Organic Gluten Free Bolognaise and Pasta

I'm not a huge fan of making pasta at home. It's one of those dishes that tastes better at a restaurant, and it can be a high calorie meal to eat on the regular. This is a healthy, organic bolognaise recipe that I do like to make from time-to-time though. The recipe is very simple, and takes about 30 minutes from start to finish. For the sauce, I use Dave's Gourmet Organic Roasted Garlic & Sweet Basil Pasta Sauce which is incredibly delicious and marked gluten free.

Ingredients:
  • One organic roma tomato, sliced
  • One half of a large organic zucchini, sliced into cubes 
  • Half a cup of organic sweet onion, diced
  • One jar of Dave's Gourmet Organic Roasted Garlic & Sweet Basil Pasta Sauce
  • 1 lb of grass fed, antibiotic free extra lean ground beef
  • Gluten free quinoa spaghetti (1/4 of package per serving)

Method:

  • Cut up vegetables and saute in a saucepan for five minutes on high with a tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside.
  • Boil water and begin cooking your pasta.
  • Saute ground beef in a saucepan until cooked. Once it is cooked, add back in your vegetables and the jar of pasta sauce. Simmer until pasta is done cooking. Sauce will yield 4 servings.
  • Once your pasta is cooked, drain the water and serve. Top with bolognaise sauce. Serving should be 1/3 pasta and 2/3 sauce.
Enjoy!

This Coconut Milk Whipped Cream is totally guilt free, vegan and gluten free. It makes for the perfect topping to a dessert, or fresh berries. It is also very easy to make!

Ingredients:

• 1 can of full fat, gluten free coconut milk
• 1 tsp of organic gluten free agave nectar

Method:

Place your can of coconut milk in the fridge over night. The next day, open the can from the bottom and drain all of the liquid out. About 1/4 of the can will remain liquid, and the rest will have solidified. Scoop out the solid coconut milk and place in a large bowl and beat on high with an electric mixer for two minutes. Add in your organic agave nectar and continue to beat until smooth. Serve and enjoy!

Gluten Free Buckwheat Crepes For Mother's Day

The Tasteful Pantry shared this awesome Mother's Day gluten free breakfast recipe with me and I had to re-post. It is a simple (kid and Dad-proof) recipe that is perfect for celebrating Mom this weekend. The recipe is free from sugar, and can be made savory or sweet depending on what you like. I personally like to top them with fresh fruit and coconut milk whip cream, but you can also go the bacon and egg route too. Added bonus, these crepes can easily be made dairy free.

INGREDIENTS (makes about 12 crepes):
1 1/4 cups buckwheat flour
3 large eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil plus additional for skillet
3/4 cup nonfat milk (or alternative milk like almond or coconut for non-dairy)
1 1/4 cups (or more if needed for consistency) water
1/4 teaspoon salt

METHOD:

Place the flour in a medium bowl. While continuing to whisk, add in eggs, 1/4 cup oil, milk, 1 1/4 cups water, and salt.

Heat a 10-inch-diameter nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; brush the pan with oil (not too much or the oil will start to spatter – be careful with the hot pan!)

Add 1/4 cupful batter to the pan; tilt it around to coat the entire bottom of the pan.

Cook the crepe until it’s golden on the bottom (you’ll have to lift a tiny bit of it up to peek), adjusting the heat down to prevent burning, 30 to 45 seconds.

Using a spatula, turn the crepe over. Using a wider spatula will make it easier to flip – don’t forget to be gentle! Cook another 30 seconds then transfer to a plate. Repeat with the rest of the batter, stacking crepes between sheets of plastic wrap.

Top with whatever toppings you think Mom will like! Get creative and have some fun with it!
