Gluten Free Cornbread



After way too many comments at the Superbowl party I have decided to post the well-received Gluten Free Cornbread recipe I found. It's loaded in sugar and I when I asked if I should cut that down when I made it again, the troops screamed in opposition. Apparently that must be what makes it so good!

I must give credit to CookinOnThePrairie for the original, but the recipe actually called for sugar substitute like Splenda. I don't use chemicals either, so I've adjusted it a little to compensate. Also see my additions if you don't have the G-Free special ingredients. . .

This went great with both the Mexican Chili and Buffalo Chili we had for the Superbowl, sure wish there were leftovers!!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rice flour
  • 1/4 cup tapioca flour *(sub rice or other gfree flour mix like Arrowhead OK)
  • 1/4 cup potato starch *(sub corn starch OK)
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup light olive oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum *(this is what binds it, if you use the Arrowhead Mix above you don't need this)
  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Mix all ingredients together in a mixing bowl.
  3. Bake in a greased 8X8 pan for 30 minutes.
Super easy!

Gluten Free for Psoriasis

Recently I've been putting my researching brain cells to work on studying the Gluten Free way of life. Since the age of 14 I have had psoriasis, and recently it's been showing signs of progression to psoriatic arthritis, a progression that occurs in about 20-40% of the cases (studies are still incomplete, although the reverse is 80% of PA patients have had psoriasis, so the two are definitely linked). I've been tested for allergies in the 1980s (none), and I'm a pretty natural consumer as well, so I don't use body products with harmful ingredients like parabens or sulfates. Herbal and homeopathic remedies and dead sea salts have all helped reduce my inflammations, but have never eliminated the disorder completely. I was vegetarian for 7 years in the 1990s, and that never cleared up my psoriasis either. Because of its progression I've started researching the diet and how it relates to the disorder, and stumbled upon several articles and studies that now link...

My switch to all natural Henna - Part 3

I am not exaggerating when I say I have been loving the switch to all natural Henna, and I have eagerly awaiting the next round with Teresa - the trooper that she is for going through this with me! Since October's posts [in case you missed Part 2 or Part 1 ], purchase, and treatment, I have had tons of comments on the color and health of my hair... Henna has - no question - improved the overall body and hydration of the hair strands and health of my scalp as well as giving it a more natural color tone than I've had since I started coloring it red 4 years ago. After the first dye, I went back to the girls at Mountain Hair Studio here in Steamboat and had them give me a once-over. While it didn't totally blend the full length of my hair (Teresa cut off about 3-4" of the dead ends, but the bottom 5-6" of my sternum-length hair still had darker, merlot colored ends), there were no "hot roots," and the tone looked more natural, continuing to settle f...

My switch to all natural Henna - Part 1

Disclaimers A) The topic Henna is clouded by volumes of misinformation, and B) I'm no expert. Background I have been on a quest to go 100% "all natural" (in all aspects) for a decade, and hair color just happens to be my last chem standing. I have been DIYing bathroom and kitchen stuff for inside and outside the body for a very long time... but specifically within the last 4 years I have been doing so to manage- and hopefully remedy- two conditions I have developed, one recently, one a long time ago: psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. I have tried gluten free, grain free, vegetarian, sobriety, urban farming... I have made DIY lotions, washes, cleaners, salves...  and because I believe others could benefit from what I've studied, I have been writing along the way ( arthritis , DIY , gluten free , grain-free, psoriasis , see list on page's bottom left for more). Topic So after a month's worth of extensive research on Henna, here's what I've found...
