Heart-shaped gluten-free strawberry rice crispie bars make a lovable Valentine’s Day treat! I used freeze-dried unsweetened strawberries (purchased at Costco) but if you can’t locate this ingredient, substitute with your favorite dried fruit. Dried cherries or cranberries would look equally great in this Valentine’s Day-inspired recipe.

Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching. It is a day of flowers, candy, chocolate desserts, sugar cookies and of course dinner.

Since the Super Bowl is this weekend, it seems fitting to round up all of the gluten-free recipes this Examiner can find. We used to have fun hosting Super Bowl parties, but have since taken to just a quiet gathering. When we hosted, some of my favorite dishes to prepare were: deviled eggs, seven layer dip, veggie tray, homemade dips (hot and cold), chili, wings from Allergy Free Foods, chicken nuggets from Applegate Farms, and brownies. Keep the menu simple and limit it to things you are comfortable preparing. No need to get stressed out on such a fun day of sports, commercials and of course gluten-free food.
Here are links to gluten-free Super Bowl recipes: (more…)
