Gluten Free Pumpkin Cheesecake
When my mother was undergoing chemotherapy for the cancer that eventually took her life, I came up with the basic recipe for the cheesecake. It was one of the few foods that she really enjoyed and would stay down. Now my granddaughter has a gluten allergy, so I've adapted the recipe for her by using the gluten-free crust instead of the original graham crumb crust. I think I like this version better!
Pressure Cooker Teriyaki Chicken
For this pressure cooker teriyaki chicken recipe, I combined other teriyaki recipes to create a yummy version for my favorite cooker, my electric pressure cooker. I used a mix of boneless, skinless thighs and chicken tenders. Serve it with spaghetti or rice noodles and broccoli — yum!
