I'm Cooking Something Up for Gluten Free Mischief

Hearing you can never have your favorite dish again is tough news to handle. That is exactly what happens with a diagnosis of Celiac disease or Gluten Sensitivity. Certain favorite foods are suddenly off-limits.

We’ve all been through this overwhelming moment of realization (and disappointment!) shortly after removing gluten from our diet.

For me, giving up favorite foods is not an option. I want to eat the foods I love while maintaining my health on a gluten free diet.

I want the same for you, too! That’s why I love having you send me recipes you wish you could make and enjoy again now that you’re gluten free. I’m here to help you with the cooking and baking challenges of taking your favorite dishes and converting them to gluten free.


Recently, Brooke, author of the blog, Gluten Free Mischief, responded with a recipe she calls her mom’s “most amazing home cooked meal” – Mamma’s Meatballs & Fettuccine.

From Gluten Free Gigi's dairy free, soy free, nut free recipe box:
gluten free dairy free stuffed peppers
Add a green salad for the perfect gluten free meal!

With so many other gluten free things to cook, why cook ordinary?!

Sure, stuffed peppers are good. I love them as a comfort food.

Growing up, I remember the crisp sweet Bells dad grew in our garden. Most of those found their way into salads and pasta sauce. A select few – those that were large and “perfect” enough – were reserved for stuffing to overflowing with a mixture of ground beef, rice, and spices.

The peppers were so filling they were served alone.

This week, as I thought about our little Pepper Party, I thought we deserved our own stuffed pepper... A lighter version of what I grew up with. Something not so, maybe, "stuffy"!

As you'll see, I’ve changed the original recipe quite a bit. Dad would say it’s a “loose interpretation” of his traditional stuffed peppers. He might be right...

Whatever the case, these stuffed peppers taste fantastic and are ridiculously simple to make.

In less than one relaxing hour of easy cooking, you’ll have healthy Gluten Free Vegetarian Pasta Stuffed Peppers!
