gluten free cooking and baking

[hunybee]

these can be used for any type of recipe that calls for meatballs. i have used them for the traditional spaghetti and meatballs, and i have use them for party meatballs.

gluten free meatballs

3/4 c. tapioca flour
1/4 c. oat flour
1 tsp psyllium husk
1 packet of knox gelatine (or the equal amount of another type)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 c. dry onions
1/2 tsp hot pepper flakes
1 TBSP fennel seeds
1TBSP oregano
1TBSP basil
3 eggs
1 1/2 - 2 lbs ground beef


mix all the dry ingredients together so they are well blended in a separate bowl. in a large bowl, put the ground beef and the eggs together, and mix the eggs slightly. toss in the dry ingredients in the larger bowl, and using your hands, mix all the ingredients together very well. once they are all blended, start making the meatballs. place them on a plate

heat a large skillet on medium heat. place all the meatballs in the skillet and start to brown them. be careful as they will brown very quickly. turn the meatballs and brown all over. once they have been browned a little bit, dump some water in the pan (about halfway up the meatballs) and put a cover on them. simmer them untill they are cooked through being careful not to scorch.

WOW! Thanks for bumping this, Huny! DD and I have gone gluten free/semi Paleo since this summer. We both have lost some weight and feel MUCH better. DD has had some issues with PCOS and it is CLEARING UP.

If you have an Aldi's near you......it's a great source for G-free mixes. The Pizza crust mix is pretty good. The cornbread mix, WAY too sweet. Hogston Mill's cornbread mix was much better. Aldi's baking mix is decent, too. Made good pancakes with it yesterday. :o)))
