About this Cook
I am a married mother of three. I have a daughter with Autism Spectrum Disorder and she is on a Gluten, Casein and Soy Free diet---worth every bit of the hard work.
My favorite things to cook
I will cook just about anything nutritious that I can get my picky eaters to eat!
My favorite family cooking traditions
We have chocolate fondue on Christmas Eve, specially-decorated cakes for birthdays and daily dinner together as a family. I love to get my kids in the kitchen to cook with me...and make Hubby clean up. :0
My cooking triumphs
I am now actually able to make a gluten-free bread that my child will eat!!!!!!
My cooking tragedies
Make sure the shaker lid is on your crushed red pepper. I ruined a whole pasta sauce recipe by accidentally dumping in most of a container of it! I also recall a brocolli/anchovy pasta dish that fed the disposer...absolutely awful! I've also had my share of failures with gluten-free baking.

Butter Cream Frosting II
I made this dairy-free for my daughter who is on a dairy-free (and soy-free and gluten-free) diet. Use Fleischmann's UNSALTED margarine which is made from corn oil--contains no dairy or soy. You can use rice or other non-dairy "milk" for the milk.

Italian Meatball Sandwich Casserole
I followed the recipe as stated, subbing frozen meatballs, light mayo, and omitting the garlic. Next time I would add the garlic to the mayo/cream cheese mixture and would let the bread dry out overnight or lightly toast it first. Hubby really liked it!
