Caraway Cookware vs Our Place Cookware- which is better according to me :)I had the pleasure of using both brands of cookware for over 6 months and I wanted to give you my opinion on which one is better and why. I started with one of each of the Caraway and Always pans and then eventually bought the set of my favorite and by far the winner in this debate. You will have to read to the bottom to find out which one!

Empanadas, in this case, gluten-free empanadas, are delicious dough pockets filled with meat and veggies. They are found in Spanish, Latin American, Philippines, and Southern European cooking. The word Empenadas means “enbreaded” or wrapped in bread according to Wikipedia.
Original Post was written 09/06/2014 and updated 1/24/22. WINE PAIRING AND EMPENADAS:Happy Saturday! Today our neighbors and I are making a Spanish dinner paired with wine! We are preparing for our ladies’ wine dinner and decided to take a test drive on the recipes! Plus our shiny new air conditioner is being installed as I write this….yay!!! I am using this Empanada dough recipe from Gluten-free on a Shoestring. Her recipe looks easy and had great reviews! We are doing a filling of ground beef, onions, peppers, and green olives. I am hoping they turn out great! INGREDIENTS:½ cup dry white wine (e.g., Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay) ½ cup water Two tablespoons unsalted butter 2 tablespoons nonhydrogenated vegetable shortening 2 cups high-quality all-purpose gluten-free flour 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (omit if your blend already contains it) 3 to 4 tablespoons milk or cream (low-fat is fine, nonfat is not, nondairy substitute is fine) INSTRUCTIONS:In a medium saucepan, place the wine, water, butter, and shortening and stir to combine. Heat over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is simmering (about 3 to 4 minutes), stirring occasionally. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and dump in the flour and xanthan gum. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes together (it will happen quickly). Add the milk/cream by the tablespoonful, and knead into the dough until it is smooth. Turn the dough out onto a smooth surface and knead until fairly smooth. Do NOT flour the kneading surface. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and allow it to rest at room temperature for an hour. This is an important step. After the dough has rested, roll until it is about ⅛-inch thick (the width of a nickel), and use a 3-inch biscuit cutter (or smaller or larger, if you prefer) to cut into rounds. Notes Bean flour blends are not true all-purpose gluten-free flours. Pamela’s baking mix and Pamela’s bread mix are not all-purpose gluten-free flours, nor were they meant to be. They have all sorts of additional ingredients, like baking powder, baking soda and sugar, and then yeast and sugar, respectively. Yes, you really do need the wine for flavor. It’s worth opening a bottle. Gluten Free on a shoestring EmpanadasHOW DID MINE TURN OUT?I thought the recipe was easy to make and follow.

This version of my chicken salad is also keto but I have included optional add-ins if you like! 4 Cups of diced gluten free rotisserie chicken or precooked chicken 1/2 Cup diced pecans 1 Cup Mayo 1 TBSP Mustard 2 Stalks of Celery that are diced. 1 Pinch Salt (or seasoned salt) and Pepper 1 Pinch Herbs de Province 3 Green onions chopped Here are some other ingredients you might like to add: chopped grapes, dried cranberries, or chopped peppers. You can be creative and add any other ingredients you like! If you add a lot more items, you might have to add more mayo. Especially if you are like me and like it creamy! HERE’S HOW EASY IT IS TO MAKE THIS DELICIOUS CHICKEN SALAD: Chop all of the ingredients that need to be chopped. Put them all in a bowl. Add in the rest of the ingredients. Stir to combine. You can chill it in the fridge for a while if you like. However, you can also eat it right away too! Serve it with some gluten free bread for a sandwich, in between two big pieces of pepper for a lower carb sandwich, with sliced cucumbers to keep it low carb, or on it’s own in a bowl with a fork. ?

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THESE MONSTER COOKIE BITES?
These gluten free monster cookie bites only require a few ingredients. You can also customize them based on what you have in your pantry or what you are craving most! You will need the following: 1 Cup of Purity Protocol Oats 2/3 Cup of Sun Butter or Peanut Butter 1/3 Cup of Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips 1/3 Cup of Chocolate Covered Nut Candies such as MnMs, Chocolate Covered Caramel Candies or other chocolate covered candies you enjoy! Here are some of my other favorite ingredients to add to these: Crushed gluten free pretzels, crushed gluten free cookies, peanut MnMs, peanut butter MnMs, dark chocolate cut into chunks, dried cranberries, and other dried fruit. WHY DO I USE PURITY PROTOCOL OATS? I personally choose to use purity protocol oats because I think they are safer for people with Celiac Disease to consume. Purity protocol oats are not farmed in shared fields and shared farming equipment. Mechanically separated oats could be farmed on the same field and use the same equipment as wheat, barley, or rye but use a machine to remove any grains that are not oats. You can read about this more here.
HERE’S HOW TO MAKE THESE NO BAKE COOKIES.
This is why this recipe is super easy! Chop any candies that you want into smaller pieces. I recommend chopping up MnMs or things of that size. Add all ingredients into a bowl. This is one activity most kids love to do! Dump ingredients into a bowl. Mix everything together. Use a cookie scoop or your hands (using your hands are a little messier) to scoop the mixture into balls. Plop them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate them for 30 minutes or longer. Store them in an airtight container. Enjoy! INGREDIENTS
