Baked Chicken with Vegetables
Here is one of my families favorite dinners. Baked Chicken with Vegetables.
1 whipped Egg in a cereal bowl.
1 cup of Brown Rice Flour on a plate.
Salt, Pepper and Garlic Powder to Taste mixed in with the brown rice flour.
4 - 6 pieces of Chicken Breast.
Dip the Chicken in the egg and then in the flour mixture.
Place the chicken in a 9 x 13 cake pan that has 2 tbsp. Olive Oil and Butter.
(The Flour soaks up the olive oil and butter)
Cover with ten foil. (uncover chicken the last 10 minutes so that the chicken can get brown on top).
Bake 350 Degrees for 30 - 40 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink inside.
Serve with Steamed Vegetables and a Salad and enjoy.

Gluten-Free Hawaiian Pizza
Here is an easy Gluten-Free Hawaiian Pizza to put together. And the crust has no sugar in it.
I bought bag of "Namaste Foods Gluten-Free Pizza Crust Mix". It makes two 14" crusts.
The instructions are to mix 1 1/2 cups of the Pizza Crust Mix with
1 tsp oil and 1 1/4 cups water.
Then beat with electric mixer for 3 minutes and the consistency will be that of cake batter.
Scrape the batter onto a greased pizza pan and spread it to at least 14 inches.
Then Bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes.
When I took it out of the oven it had risen about a 1/2 inch.
Take it out of the oven.
Spread half of a small jar of Organic Pasta Sauce. (6 oz worth).
5 oz. of Canadian Style Bacon.
1 can of sliced black olives. (6 oz.)
1/2 can of Pineapple Chunks. (10 oz. worth)
1/2 oz of both Shredded Cheddar Cheese and Mozzarella Cheese. (a little more or less)
For those of you that can't have dairy products, you can use cheese alternatives.
Example, Almond Cheese for one.
Then put the Pizza back in the oven for 15 minutes at 450 degrees.
Take out of the oven, slice it up and enjoy.
I tell you it was very yummy. I wasn't sure what to expect from this Pizza Crust Mix, but it turned out really, really good.

Mixes from the Heartland Review
Lisa’s Review on “Mixes in the Heartland"
I tried a couple of the products that “Mixes in the Heartland” sent me.
The meal above is their “Texas Goulash Meal”.
I browned some hamburger in a frying pan. In a big pot added water, beef broth and crushed tomatoes. When the meat was done cooking I drained off grease. Then all I had to do is add the beef to the liquid mixture and add the packet . Pretty Easy. This particular mix is on the spicy side. But it tasted very yummy. This mix makes a big pot, so for those of you who are single can store half of it in the freezer.
This mix is called “Rice-N-Raisin Pudding Mix”
This one all I had to do is combine Milk (I used Rice Milk) and Eggs.
Then add the mixture and pour it into a 9x13 pan and let it bake for an hour. Very easy. This one has sugar in it, but it is very yummy. Mixes in the Heartland does carry gluten-free, sugar-free products as well. My husband said while he was eating his second helping said “I don’t like it at all”. I thought he was serious, but as I looked up at him he was smiling. He was teasing me again, like he always does. LOL. My husband loves to tease people. He said he liked it.
“Mixes from the Heartland” is a facility free of wheat, soy, barley, oats, eggs, nuts and by products. They are located in Amarillo, Texas. They ship to people all over.
All in all I give this company a 2 Thumbs up. These mixes make it very easy and quick to make. And most of all they are very yummy. I highly recommend them.
This week my Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free Brownie Recipe is featured on What can I eat that's gluten-free?
Here is video that you are welcome to watch. It is on Making a Gluten-Free Flour Mixture.
Have a Wonderful Valentine’s Day,

Mixes from the Heartland
I just received some free samples from Mixes from the Heartland.
Only these are not just samples they are the same size mixes that they send to people when they order.
I wasn't expecting to receive such a generous gift from them.
Thank-you "Mixes from the Heartland", I really appreciate it.
They sent me:
Rice-n-Raisin Pudding Mix
Texas Goulash Meal
Plain Noodle Mix
Cowboy Soup
Raspberry Pound Cake
So keep a look out, because I am going to writing product reviews on them one at a time, as I make them.
They look really good, I can't wait to try them.
Thank-you to all of you that have been receiving my e-mails and my readers. I really appreciate you.

Gluten Free Tuna Casserole
This is a variation on my tuna casserole I used to make way back when.
1 package (16oz.) Brown Rice Pasta Spirals Boil about 6 cups of water and pour in the pasta and cook till tender. Then drain the water and rinse off.
3 packets Road's End Organics Alfredo Sauce Mix In a separate pan boil 1 1/2 cups of water and pour in the packets of Alfredo Sauce Mix, mix until smooth and thick. (Instead of alfredo sauce you could add red sauce or you can make your own sauce with Rice Milk and Brown Rice Flour and spices).
In a Big Bowl
Add
1 can of Mixed Vegetables
1 can of Tuna Fish (or you could use chicken or ground beef).
Add Salt, Pepper and Garlic to taste.
Mix in your Pasta and your sauce.
Top it off with Parmesan Cheese or Cheddar Cheese.
Serve and Enjoy.
