Beef Stew Recipe for Pressure Canning

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Homesteading

The weather is getting cooler, so it’s time to start making soups and stews. Since I have a pressure canner this year, I am able to can our stew for use later without having to freeze it. This means that it’s easy for Daddy to grab a jar of stew, warm it up, and put it in a thermos to eat for lunch. Making beef stew at home means you can control the quality and quantity of the ingredients. This beef stew recipe was a hit with my family, and it includes canning instructions for shelf-stable storage using a pressure…

Homemade Canned Cranberry Jelly

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Homesteading

Munchkin and Daddy love their cranberry jelly. You know. The kind that comes out of the can in the shape of a can. This year, I really wanted to make my own so I could control the ingredients. I was able to use organic ingredients that were not processed or minimally processed. I decided to keep the skins on the cranberries so I used the blender to create the puree. I also decided to add just a little orange extract for a little brightness. I found the cute half pint jars and used those in addition to regular wide mouth…

YumUniverse Gluten Free Walnut Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Posted in Gluten Free

Special thanks to the publishers of YumUniverse for allowing me to share this recipe from the book. I love a good cookie and a healthy cookie that tastes great is even better. I didn’t have any walnuts in the house, so I chose to use pecans instead. The results were delicious. I used some soy-free chocolate chips rather than the recommended vegan chocolate chips. While making the cookies, I found that it was better to allow the cookie dough to rest before baking them. I ended up adding more mix-ins in the second batch to create more of a hearty…

Gluten Free Peach Crisp

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

Yes, we have lots of peaches and other stone fruit right now here in CA. We’ve been enjoying delicious peaches from both our local co-op and our CSA. I love that they are a naturally sweet, refreshing treat. Daddy really likes crisps/cobblers, so I thought it would be nice to make him a twist on a traditional peach crisp. As usual, I sort of winged it when it came to ingredients, so the measurements listed below are approximate. I like my peaches a little firm, so I don’t cook my crisp as long. If the topping doesn’t crisp up quite…
