Spaghetti with Green Chiles (Gluten Free Nut Free)

Years ago, someone gave my a Southern Living cookbook called Everyday Menus. In it, I found a pasta recipe called Beef Lombardi. It's a layered dish with pasta, meat sauce, cheese, sour cream and green onions...and it was delicious. But what really stood out was the incredible sauce! This simple meat sauce was so yummy and has a little kick to it with the green chiles. My hubby remarked once that he'd just like it served alone over spaghetti noodles...So that's what I did!

Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef
1 14oz can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 10 oz can diced tomatoes w/ green chiles, undrained (I use Rotel Mild)
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 6oz can tomato paste
1 bay leaf

Directions:

Cook ground beef over medium heat until crumbled and browned.
Drain and return to pot.

Stir in both cans tomatoes, sugar, salt and pepper. Cook 5 minutes.

Add tomato paste and bay leaf. Simmer on medium low heat 30 minutes, stirring occasionally .

Remove from heat. Remove bay leaf.

Serve over gluten free pasta.

Granny Smith Cinnamon Muffins (Gluten Free Nut Free)

Gluten free baking can sometimes feel like a guessing game! Sometimes I try substituting gluten free ingredients into a regular recipe and it just doesn't work. But sometimes it does! David Venable from QVC shared a great muffin recipe, and it was so easy to make it gluten free just by substituting in gluten free flour! And the muffins turned out so yummy!! Here's the recipe: 3 cups all-purpose gluten free flour (I use Betty Crocker GF Rice Flour Blend) 1 1/2 cups white sugar 1 tsp salt 4 tsp baking powder 2 tsp ground cinnamon 2/3 cups vegetable oil 2 eggs 2/3 cups milk 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and grated Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a muffin pan. Mix flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir with spoon till combined. Add the oil, eggs, and milk. With a hand mixer beat till combined, but don't over mix. Pour in the apples and stir them in gently with a spoon. Spoon the batter into muffin pa

Breakfast Casserole (Gluten Free Nut Free)

I love breakfast casserole. It is my favorite breakfast dish ever. But every time I tried to make it myself, I never could get it quite right. That was until my cousin shared her breakfast casserole recipe with me. It's delicious! Here's the recipe GF! 4 slices of Udi's GF white sandwich bread 1 lb GF bulk sausage, browned and broken up (I use Ingles Markets Gluten Free Italian Bulk Sausage) 1 cup shredded cheese 6 eggs 2 cups milk Tear bread into pieces and place in bottom of baking dish. Sprinkle cooked sausage over bread. Sprinkle grated cheese over sausage. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and milk together. Pour over bread, sausage, and cheese. Refrigerate. You could refrigerate overnight and cook for breakfast. I have also put this together in the morning, refrigerated it all day and cooked it for supper. Cook for 1 hr @350. (I usually cook it about 5 minutes longer, just keep an eye on it till it's done) Enjoy!
