The holidays are fast upon us, and not only do we have to plan the Thanksgiving meal, but the Thanksgiving leftovers as well. Usually in my house there are lots of turkey and maybe some potatoes, the stuffing is almost always the first thing to go. But after so long, cold turkey sandwiches and turkey and gravy tend to get a bit bland. I came up with this recipe last year when all I had left after the dust has settled was turkey, enjoy!

Gluten-Free Mango Cashew Cornbread Stuffing
We discovered during the past year that my 4-year-old son Ronin and my 21-month-old daughter Ellie are both gluten and dairy intolerant. My husband John is gluten-free too. The good news is that changing Ronin’s diet has helped his anxiety-related sleep issues decrease immensely. He used to have night terrors every night, but now only has them on the rare occasions we miss cutting out the gluten.
Since John has been gluten free for a while, I came up with this stuffing recipe a few years ago for Thanksgiving. And its always been a huge hit. This year I’ve modified it to also remove the dairy for the kiddos.
It. is. SO. Yum. If I do say so myself!

Grilled Swordfish and Mango Salsa Recipe
Fish is one of my favorite things to eat, but sadly I don’t cook it enough. We eat a lot of sushi in our house because Bryan isn’t a huge fan of fish when it is cooked, except for swordfish. He’s eaten a few cooked fish dishes that I’ve made but like I said, I don’t cook it often enough.
A few months ago we went to a local restaurant because he was craving swordfish. He had his grilled with a bruschetta topping to it while I had a delicious piece of mahi-mahi with a mango salsa on top. He was a bit jealous of my salsa and wasn’t such a fan of the bruschetta. I promised him the next time it is on sale we would pick up a piece and I would cook it however he wished. He asked for it to be grilled with a mango salsa, similar to the one I had on my mahi-mahi.
Lucky for him, swordfish was on sale this week! So keeping true to my promise we Read More »
Gluten Free Recipe: Chinese Spicy Orange Chicken

by Jen Cafferty
I LOVE the San-J orange sauce. I really love the San-J orange sauce when I add a hint of sriracha chili sauce to it. My daughter does not like chicken but she devours this dish. It is the perfect combination of sweet, spicy and salty. And, of course, it is super easy to make. Read More »
