Gluten-Free Chicken Alfredo

My husband LOVES alfredo sauce! I hate milk. 

He has gluten sensitivity and lactose intolerance. I want to keep him feeling well which means he's less cranky (know what I mean?). He requested this favorite of his. I delivered! I used the ingredients pictured right down there to make this deliciousness gluten free and allmmoossttt (I'm stretching it) lactose free. I can vouch for him. I'm pretty sure he didn't experience any discomfort because I didn't hear nor smell any.  :)


I made quite a few substitutions in the recipe I used to make absolutely sure it was gluten-free. For example, I replaced the butter with Ghee and the regular cream cheese with Go Veggie!. I used Lactose Free Milk 2% (only one cup) and our favorite gluten-free pasta De Boles Rice Penne. Mrs. Dash Garlic & Herb is a flavorful staple of mine so I was excited to see it used in this recipe. I couldn't find the Parm lactose free, hence the allmmoossttt lactose free. I grilled some chicken tenders for additional flavor and tossed it on top of the pasta.

Is this the best Chicken Alfredo one has ever eaten? Probably not. Is it a very viable substitute of a favorite dish for a gluten and lactose sensitive individual? ABSOLUTELY! My husband enjoyed it or at least he said he did! Try it out and leave me a comment with your review.

How to make Leftover Chuck Roast a Flavorful Chinese Stirfry

chinese stirfry

I had leftover chuck roast today. After making roast beef sandwiches twice, I wondered what I could do kinda creative with the leftover beef. I had asparagus I needed to use too!

I feel like a Master Chef after finding this recipe for Beef and Asparagus Stirfry! I modified it a bit and voila (or some chinese word I don't know). The result was this wonderful dish.

My modifications to Isabelle Boucher (Crumb's) recipe:

1. Use leftover chuck roast for the striploin steak
2. Add onions, chives and water chestnuts (my husband loves water chestnuts)
3. Omit the cornstarch and black bean stir fry
4. Sub the dry sherry for cooking wine on-hand
5. Shorten the cooking time because my beef was already cooked

Yummy! I prefer chicken over beef any day but I REALLY enjoyed this dish! Give it a try and let me know what ya think.

Pleasantly surprised,

Easy Gluten-free Chocolate Gravy Dumplings


kid favorite
I made a batch of gluten-free chicken and dumplings using my "go-to" gluten-free biscuit mix Bisquick. I even used Betty's recipe. While eating the scrumptious chicken and dumplings my hubby had the idea of making the same dish using chocolate gravy . Chocolate Gravy is a favorite with my kids. They are all grown up and still L.O.V.E. chocolate gravy. I thought it a good idea, easier than making biscuits and gravy separately. Easy Gluten-free Chocolate Gravy Dumplings are the result of his imaginative flavor palette! Please try it for yourself with this recipe.

Gravy:
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup baking cocoa
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • pinch of salt
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 cups milk
Dumplings:
  • 3/4 cup Bisquick® Gluten Free mix
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted 
  • 1 egg
  1. In a large frying pan combine sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt.
  2. Whisk in the milk and butter. Before putting on stove, complete step 3.
  3. In small bowl, stir dumpling ingredients with fork until blended. 
  4. Place frying pan with gravy ingredients on medium heat and bring to light boil. Reduce heat to low.
  5. Gently drop dumpling dough by 8-12 rounded spoonfuls onto boiling gravy mixture.
  6. Cook uncovered over low heat 10 minutes. Cover and cook 10-15 minutes longer.
  7. Spoon dumplings onto plate and cover with gravy. 
  8. Spoon additional butter over hot gravy if desired.
