I am a military spouse and since we move every couple of years I get lots of chances to meet new people and try different cuisines. My husband is a very picky eater and I am both allergic to black pepper and am gluten intolerant. Cooking in my household is always a challenge but I'll roll with the punches and never stop trying. I love grilled thick cut pork chops that are served with apples and onions sauteed in white wine. that dish makes me feel warm and fuzzy :) I make wheat free southwestern egg-rolls (rice paper) and blend avocado's and ranch dressing for a dip. I can never ever get enough spinach or mushrooms! I often cook with wine or gluten free beer and then serve either a better wine or the same beer with dinner.
