Gluten Free Beef and Squash Casserole

I recently had a Doctor's appointment in Jackson so went and visited some of my family. My Dad sent me home with fresh squash. Honey and I love fresh vegetables cubed and roasted in the oven but tonight we decided that we wanted something a little different so this is what I came up with.

This recipe was made gluten free but you can change the pkg cream of chicken soup to a can of soup and make it regular.

Fish Tacos using Rudi's Gluten Free Tortillas

Honey was out of town one night last week and I was really tired from a big day at bible school. Normally I would have chosen to eat a sandwich for supper but this night I was craving fried catfish. I don't know why it had only been  4-yrs since I had eaten any. I had just enough farm raised catfish in my freezer for one person so I decided that my craving was going to out weigh my tiredness. I fried up my fish using 

and made slaw to go with it and it was sooo good.

The next day for lunch I thought about how great my catfish was and decided to use my Rudi's plain tortillas and made fish tacos. Oh man I think I could eat these everyday of the week, they were so good. I heated the fish in my oven until it was hot and crispy once more, then I heated the tortilla put the fish on it with a little cocktail sauce over it and topped it off with the coleslaw. Now after blogging this I wish I had more fish!

Go buy some Rudi's gluten free tortillas they are fantastic!

Easy Gluten Free Somoa Brownies

I had chosen this recipe to try gluten free for some of our family who were coming to visit. Well go figure after I had my saliva glands all worked up the family plans changed. So I decided that I was going to make them anyway and eat the whole thing, not really!

1 3/4 cups shredded coconut, toasted
(1) 14 oz. package of caramels, unwrapped
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. milk
1.5 oz. semi-sweet chocolate

Prepare brownie mix according to box directions and cool.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and place coconut on baking pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Stir coconut and cook for another 2-3 minutes until toasted. Watch closely so it doesn't burn.

In a large, microwaveable bowl, add unwrapped caramels, salt, and milk and cook on high for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally (about every 45-60 seconds). Cook until all caramels are melted and smooth.
