What's for Dinner Wednesday~

Confession...ever since going gluten free, both #2 and I have missed eating Chinese food.  So when we stumbled upon Damn Delicious' Blog and her recipe for the knock off version of Panda Express' Sweet Fire Chicken...we knew we had a winner.  To see the recipe, click on the previous link.  It was sooooo good.


This recipe was super easy to adapt to gluten free. We omitted the green onions (optional garnish, as #2 is highly sensitive to them, but we kept the pineapple as I am only mildly sensitive to them and don't eat often).

So yummy...we ate every last bit.  And, she has many more delicious recipes we are looking to try.  Most are super easy and quick to prepare.  Perfect for school nights.  Still cannot believe the kiddos are already back in school here!!

Looks like it's straight from the Chinese take out box! Yummy :-)

Yummy! We haven't jumped on the gluten-free band wagon yet, but we love Chinese food! I found a recipe for General TSO's chicken on Pinterest about a year ago and it has become a family favorite! It might even be considered gluten free as well, but it does have ketchup and honey in the sauce, so I'm not sure. Happy Wednesday!

I have heard so much about gluten free lately. We do love Chinese food. It's always great to find wonderful recipes online we can change up. Happy Wednesday. xo

Looks great, Lauren! I love cooking with pineapple. I bet the addition in this recipe is delicious.

This looks fabulous, and I am just not a chinese food fan. I have seen lots of damn delicious recipes on pinterest that look really good.
