I was asked to bring pasta salad to dinner tonight at my mother-in-laws. I have two nieces that are celiac and I'm sure my sister-in-law would make them their own pasta salad or they would just go without. What a bummer. I thought I'd use gluten-free rice pasta. Really there isn't so much of a difference in texture - just taste. Since I'll be covering up the taste of the pasta with so many other yummy ingredients, I thought we could all handle it.

Strawberry Basil Ice Cream
We had some strawberries in the garden and I was tired of just eating them ON things (like cereal and cake), so I decided to make ice cream with them. I also have a ton of basil, so thought I would add that to the ice cream too. It was spectacular! Here's the recipe:

Gourmet a la hot coals in a fire pit
Every Sunday this summer we are going up Millcreek Canyon, near Salt Lake City, Utah. I'm trying to make some of the meals a little fancier than the basic hamburgers and hot dogs. This last Sunday, I decided to make a yummy pasta salad and cook salmon in the fire - or at least, the hot coals from the fire - no flame.

In a pinch - Vegan and Celiac
I had a party to go to last Monday night. It was for a friend-of-a-friend's birthday. He (the guest of honor) is vegan AND celiac. We needed to bring something to share. I had 45 minutes to clean up my house (because it would drive me crazy to come home to a messy one) and come up with something tasty to share. My idea was hummus and Fritos.

Blogging on Food
I haven't contributed anything to this blog in a long time, but that doesn't mean I'm not cooking and creating. In fact, I would be willing to say that all of my spare time is spent creating menus or dishes in my mind, developing them in the kitchen, and feeding them to my husband and daughter, and the occasional friend, neighbor, or other family member.
