Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (September 1-5, 2014)

We've been living in a hotel for the past week since selling our house, waiting for our departure to France. We leave for 6 weeks in France tomorrow, so the truth is, I'm not really sure what we'll be eating for the rest of the week, except that it will be gluten free! Still, it's back to school for most, so quick and easy meals are a must. Here are some simple meal ideas to make back to school dinners run smoothly. Did I mention that these recipes are all extremely budget friendly?





Monday: Chicken with Tomatoes & Olives (RECIPE)

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (August 4-8, 2014)

We're a few weeks out from moving day, and we've been packing up the house so that we're not scrambling at the last minute. Meals have been quick and easy, and this week will be no exception.


Hamburger Squash  




Monday: Gluten Free Hamburger Squash (I like this one because it looks good, and is a complete meal all in one. It's also easy to make.) RECIPE

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (July 7-11, 2014)







Monday: Baked Chicken Thighs & Drumsticks in a Garlic Hoisin Sauce (I used VH Gluten Free Hoisin Sauce, and baked everything at 375F until cooked through) and Mixed Vegetables

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (June 16-20, 2014)

This week's meal plan features food that is easy to reheat in a pinch, and one or two that could even be eaten cold. As usual, these dishes are family friendly, kid-approved, and gluten free!






Monday: Quiche (with Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Pie Crust) RECIPE

Sunday, June 8, 2014

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (June 9-13, 2014)

Our house has been listed for sale, which means that we need to be able to vacate the premises for viewings with little notice. As a result, this week's recipes are pretty much 1 pot meals that are easy to make and don't need a ton of pots and pans to put them together.




Monday: Green Pea Soup with Gluten Free Garlic Bread (2 cups frozen peas, 4 cups gluten free vegetable or chicken broth, some mint leaves if desired. Season to taste, then blend smooth.)

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (June 2-6, 2014)

Welcome to June! May was a busy month at my house, and June promises more of the same. This week I played around with sauces as condiments to a few of the meals in the Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan. I hope you try a few and let me know how you like them!



Monday: Center-cut pork chops seasoned with Thyme, and Roasted Asparagus with a Dijon Yogurt Sauce (for the sauce, mix 2 large tablespoons of plain yogurt with 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard.)

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (May 26-30, 2014)

This is turning out to be a beautiful weekend, with the sun shining and temperatures that finally make it feel like spring. I don't want to spend all day in the kitchen on days like this, and I imagine you don't either. Here are some simple gluten free meal ideas to get you in and out of the kitchen in no time.







Monday: Minestrone Soup with Gluten Free Garlic Bread

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (May 19-23, 2014)

It's a long weekend here in Ontario, and the weather is gorgeous so we've spent the whole day outside taking care of the backyard. It's finally ready for outdoor dinners and watching the kids run around. I hope you're enjoying your Monday, whether it's a holiday Monday or a regular one.






Monday: Salade Niçoise (Recipe) I love this simple salad. Perfect for a holiday Monday!

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (May 12-16, 2014)

This meal plan is a little late, but after Mother's Day and my little guy's appointment at the Hospital for Sick Children, it fell to the bottom of the list. Still, I would hate to leave you hanging for a whole week, so here's what we're eating at our house this week!







Monday: Gluten Free Tri-Colour in a Simple Sauce with Creme Fraiche and Parmesan Cheese

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (May 5-9, 2014)

Good morning! I'm getting ready to head out to the Toronto Gluten Free Expo in a few minutes, and I can't wait to talk to the vendors and try out new products. If you're in the GTA and are looking for something fun to do, I highly recommend it!

Here's what we're eating this week.

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (April 28-May 2, 2014)

This week has been so crazy, that I haven't blogged since Monday's menu plan went up. That has happened to me...ever. Well, at least I now have newly sanded and painted kitchen cabinets to show for it! I have so much to post about, that I've got at least 10 drafts started, so be sure to check back often this week. The cookbook of the month review is coming up, my kombucha is ready, and I've got some incredible plans for Celiac Awareness Month!

For now, the menu plan. This week's meals are simple and quick to make. Enjoy!







Monday: Gluten Free Sun Dried Tomato, Spinach, and Ricotta Pasta (This is a variation of this recipe.)

Hello everyone! Easter weekend was a busy one at my house, and schools are closed on Easter Monday around  here, so I've been busy with the family all day and put together a pretty quick and simple meal plan. I hope your long weekend was incredible and that this is a great week ahead!






Monday: Simple Rice Noodle Soup (Broth, Garlic, Ginger, Rice Noodles. Garnish with Cilantro.)

Gluten Free Weekly Meal Plan (April 7-11, 2014)

Hello, and happy Monday! I was at the Gluten Free Living Conference in Orlando this weekend, so my husband handled the cooking for the week. I arrived home early this morning, so I'm just getting things in order after dropping my son at school, throwing in a load of laundry, and trying to stay awake after a long night! Here's what we're having for dinner at my house this week.






Monday: Roast Turkey Breast with Vegetables (We buy turkey breast on the bone, and roast it in the oven like any other roast. Add in some potatoes, carrots, or other root vegetables and pour in a bit of broth to keep everything juicy. One pot meal!)
