Gluten-Free Orange Almond Muffins
Breakfast Rut–Two words no one wants to hear during the work week. But every now and then, they roll around and it’s time to look for new recipes or inspiration. Breakfast can be challenging when you’re not a morning person. I usually try to meal prep breakfast the night before so I can just reheat it in the morning. One of the more challenging aspects of trying to minimize gluten in a lifestyle is the lack of quick and easy breakfast foods that are gluten-free. Lately, I’ve been getting tired of my usual go-tos like home fries and sausage, bacon and eggs, hash browns and ham steak. I usually add…

Crustless Bacon-Cheese Quiche
Crustless quiche can seem intimidating, but with the right recipe, and the right baking dish, you won’t even realize the crust is nowhere to be found! This recipe is also so versatile you can change up the ingredients to include spinach and feta, ham and cheese, or whatever your favorite breakfast combo happens to be! Ingredients: 5-6 slices of cooked and cooled bacon 5 eggs 2/3 cup heavy-cream 1 cup of milk 1 cup of shredded cheese (I did a mix of mozzarella and Mexican 4 cheese blend) 2/3 cup grated parmesan cheese 1/4 cup chopped green onions Pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder to taste (optional) Parsley to sprinkle…

Mixed Berry Crumble Bars
Making a mixed berry compote has become a quarantine favorite. Using a bag of frozen fruit that includes blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, and cherries, I’ve been cooking the fruit down with some turbinado sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. The final product is delicious on toast, over ice cream, or as a key component in these mixed berry crumble bars. Once again, I made berry bars before and couldn’t remember exactly which recipe I used, so I turned to Healthy Gluten-Free Family to use the Berry Crumble Bar recipe found here as inspiration. Since I already had the mixed berry compote ready to go in the refrigerator, that was…

Apple-Walnut Muffins
I tried out a new recipe below for Apple-Walnut muffins made with quinoa flour and flaxseed. I had the quinoa flour in the pantry, but wasn’t sure what to do with it–until now. These muffins turned out great and they are naturally gluten-free and vegan. I tweaked a few things from the original recipe, so I’ll link to it here and then share my changes below. These will make a great breakfast or mid-morning snack. The quinoa flour is a great source of protein and fiber as is the flaxseed “egg” used in this recipe. Ingredients: 1 ½ tablespoons ground flax seed 3 tablespoons warm water 2 large apples, peeled and grated 1/4 cup…

Gluten-Free Almond-Oatmeal Bake
Things don’t always turn out how you thought you would—but that’s not always a bad thing. In this case, it was a very, very good thing. Here is the link to the Popsugar recipe I was looking at when I decided to make baked almond-oatmeal bars. I may still go back and try these again following the recipe, but to see what I changed and added, take a look below for my own version of this delicious breakfast oatmeal “bar”. **Disclaimer** I did stop measuring at some point during this recipe and eye-balled my ingredients, but the below measurements are pretty close to what I used. Don’t always feel like…
