Holiday Dressing

by flavorslutofficial
written by flavorslutofficial

This classic and simple holiday dressing uses Canyon Bakehouse gluten free bread to make a comforting and delicious side dish everyone at the table can enjoy! 

**I know dressing is a fierce battle between dry and wet styles. Pictured are 1 inch cubes producing a dry style dressing. If you prefer a wet dressing cut your cubes into 1/4 inch or smaller pieces.**

Ingredients:
 
  • 24 oz loaf sliced GF bread, thawed if frozen (I used Canyon Bakehouse Honey White)
  • 4 ribs celery (thinly sliced)
  • ½ large yellow onion (finely chopped -approx. 1.5 cups)
  • 2 shallots (finely chopped)
  • 1 leek (whites and light green only) (thinly sliced)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 6 Tbsp salted butter
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp poultry seasoning
  • 1 tsp rubbed sage
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 4 cups chicken or turkey stock
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and cut your bread into bite sized pieces. If you prefer a wet dressing cut smaller pieces (¼ inch) if you prefer a dry dressing cut larger pieces. (1 inch).
  • On a dry baking tray place all your bread cubes and cook for 20-40 minutes to dry the bread out. Timing will depend on the size you cut the bread to. You are aiming for a stale bread feel. The bread cubes should feel slightly hard to the touch, but should remain pale. Check the bread cubes often while in the oven.
  • When your bread cubes are ready remove them from the oven and set aside. Do not turn the oven off.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat add your butter and allow to melt. To the melted butter add the prepared yellow onion, leek, shallot, celery, and ½ tsp salt . Stirring often allow to cook for 20 minutes or until the vegetables begin to brown. When the vegetable are ready add the garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour the contents of the skillet into a large bowl and allow to cool enough to be able to mix with your hands.
  • When the vegetables are just cool enough to handle add the dried bread cubes to the bowl along with all remaining seasonings, and the chicken or turkey broth. Mix together and taste for seasoning- adjust to taste as necessary. When you are satisfied with seasoning levels mix in the eggs and combine well.
  • Mix the dressing together with your hands squeezing the bread cubes as you go allowing them to break slightly and absorb more broth. Combine well. There will still be unabsorbed stock at the bottom of the bowl. This is totally okay!
  • Pour the dressing and stock from the bowl into an ungreased 9 x 9 baking dish. Cover with foil and cook for 40 minutes at 350°F. Remove the foil and cook the dressing uncovered for 10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before serving and enjoy!

Air Fryer Lumpia

by flavorslutofficial
written by flavorslutofficial

Lumpia are a seriously delicious blessing upon us all from the Philippines made specifically to bring us a taste of the heavens. I’m not really sure of their history, but I am sure that I’m super thankful they exist lol. Lumpia come in all shapes and sizes, and are similar to an eggroll in fillings. If you can find them- gluten free lumpia wrappers do exist, usually made of cornstarch, and can be subbed for the rice paper here. Just follow the directions on your package when rolling. I personally can never find them so we’re turning to rice paper because it never does us wrong and has ALL the versatility!! 

I make my lumpia larger (think eggrolls) because I’m lazy and don’t want to wrap more of them, but feel free to use less filling per and use more rice paper (2 per lumpia) to make them skinnier and more snack size. The filling can also be made several days ahead of time before rolling to save on time!

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Course: Appetizer, Main Course, Side Dish
Cuisine: Filipino
Servings: 10 lumpia
Pin it!
Ingredients:
 
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 2 bunches green onions
  • 1 shallot
  • 1 carrot
  • 8 oz mushrooms
  • 10 oz cabbage
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 1 Tbsp GF soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp vegetable oil ((anything BUT olive))
  • 1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp white pepper
  • 20 rice paper wrappers
  • cooking spray
Instructions:
  • In a food processor combine all ingredients except the pork, vegetable oil rice paper, and cooking spray. Pulse until all the ingredients are a fine mince. If you don't have a food processor you can mince or finely shred the same ingredients by hand and then stir it all together. It's pretty quick either way!
  • In a large pan over medium high heat add the vegetable oil and brown your pork. When browned add the minced ingredients from the food processor and cook until the vegetables are soft, fragrant, and there is no liquid in the pan. Liquid in your filling will make your lumpia soggy! This should take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Fill a shallow dish with warm water (I use a pie pan) and working one at a time soak the rice paper. When the rice paper becomes soft and pliable set it on a hard flat surface and fill with approximately 2 Tbsp of filling in the center of the rice paper. Fold the sides in, then bring the bottom of the wrapper up to cover the filling, and then roll until closed.
  • Preheat your air fryer for 10 minutes at 400°F
  • Because rice paper tears easily I elected to double wrap the lumpia. This is optional, but does make a crispier and sturdier final product and takes away the potential of leaked fillings when air frying.
  • Place the wrapped lumpia on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray, and spray the tops lightly with cooking spray.
  • When ready to air fry cook each side at 400°F for 10 minutes per side do not allow the lumpia to touch in the fryer or they will stick together. Lumpia will have a white crunchy shell with hints of golden brown when done. Enjoy with soy sauce or sweet chili sauce!

Thai Beef Salad (Yum Nua)

by flavorslutofficial
written by flavorslutofficial

Growing up one of my favorite places to eat was this little Thai restaurant near our house called Thai O’cha. If you’re in San Antonio you should 100% go eat there. The staff are friendly, the food is delicious, the atmosphere is cozy, and every time I visit home I make a point of eating there. It’s that good!

My mom’s favorite dish before she became a vegan was Thai Beef Salad ordered “Thai hot” which really just means that shit was SPICY and mom was a real one. My version brings back all the flavors of that dish, which quickly became one of my favorites as well, but makes the spice level tolerable for those of us who could never handle the heat of Thai hot or *ahem* the aftermath lolol.

Shakshouka

by flavorslutofficial

Shashouka is a popular and delicious Mediterranean egg dish eaten at anytime of the day! If spice is your thing you could easily dial it up!

Feel free to customize this dish to suit your tastes as the only must have ingredients are the eggs, tomatoes, and accompanying spices. Goat cheese is a delicious tangy option, but if it isn’t your style feta, queso fresco, and leaving the cheese out completely all work beautifully here as well!

Sopes

by flavorslutofficial
written by flavorslutofficial

Pronounced “SO-pays” sopes are a delicious Mexican dish that utilizes leftovers to make a quick meal that helps to stretch the budget! Since sopes use corn masa as the base the texture lies between the chew of an arepa and the softness of a tamal (tamale). They cook up in just ten minutes, and can be filled with whatever your heart desires!

For these sopes I used the leftovers from taco night (taco meat, refried beans, lettuce, pico de gallo, and queso fresco). Other common fillings include shredded meat, salsas, cheeses, shredded cabbage, radish, pickled onions. Let your imagination run wild!

Pin it!

Ingredients:

 

  • 2 ½ cups instant masa harina
  • 2 cups warm water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil or lard/bacon fat
Instructions:

  • In a bowl combine the masa harina, salt and vegetable oil or lard/bacon fat. With your hands crumble the fat into the masa harina until it has the texture of sand.
  • Slowly pour the warm water into your masa one cup at a time. The water should dissolve into the masa completely before adding the next cup. Your masa should be the texture of fresh play-doh when it's ready! Masa is not an exact science so you may need more masa harina or water to achieve the correct texture, don't sweat it!
  • Divide the prepared masa into 8 even balls. Lightly wet your hands and press the balls into approximately ½" thick circles with your palms re-wetting your hands after each circle. This prevents the masa from sticking to your hands.
  • Heat a large skillet over med-high heat or 400°F if you're using an electric skillet. Lightly grease the skillet, and when it's hot begin cooking the sopes. Cook for 2-4 minutes per side. You're looking for a *slight* golden color.
  • When your sopes have achieved the correct color move them to a baking tray, and while still warm pinch the edges to form a rim around the outside of the sopes. They should look like tiny pie crusts. This step must be done while the sopes are still warm, but be careful not to burn yourself!
  • At this point the sopes are technically done, but I like to place them back on the griddle for just a minute or two to allow the bottoms to crisp up a little more. This step is completely optional though. You do you boo!
  • Fill the sopes with whatever you've chosen. The traditional way is to begin with a smear of beans, then top with meat, cheese, and additional toppings. Enjoy!

Chicken

Tandoori Chicken

by flavorslutofficial
written by flavorslutofficial

Much like in my chickpea vindaloo recipe you’ll need Kashmiri chile to provide the appropriate amount of heat and color. Kashmiri chile powder is easily found online or at your local Indian market place.

Since tandoori chicken uses a yogurt based marinade it needs lots of time to be able to penetrate the chicken. Allowing the chicken to marinate overnight is best, but at the minimum you will need eight hours. Thankfully the marinade comes together in less than 5 minutes, so you can mix it up and forget about it until dinner time!

California Poppers

by flavorslutofficial
written by flavorslutofficial

Fresno peppers are a delicious pepper that grows out here in California. They resemble a jalapeno, but are fruitier in flavor and rest somewhere between the heat level of a jalapeno and a serrano. They’re so good!

That being said they are a little on the pricier side sometimes soaring as high as almost nine dollars a pound. Ouch! So if Fresno chiles aren’t in the budget feel free to use green or red jalapenos and mix 2 teaspoons of sriracha into the goat cheese mix. Since sriracha is made from Fresnos you’ll get the flavor without the high price. Fig jam would also be a delicious addition here if apricot isn’t…your jam lol.

Lemon Super Greens Salad

by flavorslutofficial
written by flavorslutofficial

This light and fresh salad provides a delicious hit of lemon and texture in every bite. By using breadcrumbs instead of croutons and shredding the Parmesan instead of shaving it the salad stays consistent throughout.

If you can’t find prepackaged baby super greens using Arugula in it’s place is a great substitute. We chose to top this salad with grilled chicken, but the simple marinade also works beautifully on salmon, and even white beans and avocado!
