We love this quinoa tabbouleh on a hot summer day. Quinoa has a much nicer taste than bulgur and it's gluten-free so everyone can enjoy this Middle Eastern salad. The longer you let the tabbouleh sit, the better it tastes.

Gluten-Free Chicken and Sausage Gumbo
I modified my mother's chicken and sausage gumbo recipe to make it gluten-free. Good gumbo is hard to find for my friend with a wheat allergy. The wheat flour roux is the key ingredient for any gumbo. After experimenting with a few gluten-free alternatives, I find that a light brown millet flour roux thickens the gumbo and gives an excellent taste nearly equal to wheat flour. Most people won't notice the difference.
Loaded Smashed Potato Salad
This loaded smashed potato salad is a delicioius side dish. Smashed potates are crisp on the edges and creamy in the middle and are paired with cheese, bacon, green onions, and a jazzed up sour cream mixture.
