Sweet Potato and Corn Chili

I have been gunning for fall and soup season since mid-July. So you beat that as soon as it cooled down I jumped on the opportunity to make one of my fall favorites: Chili. Chili is a big time comfort food for me. Any time I see a burgundy stained spoon and smell the mixContinue reading “Sweet Potato and Corn Chili”

Lammas: A Celebration of Abundance

While shorter days signify the ending of summer, they also signify one of my seasonal traditions – harvest feasts! Lammas, or Lughnasdah/Lughnasa, is the first harvest season in the wheel of the year and it occurs on August 1 – right in the middle of summer. It is a holiday rooted in Celtic Pagan traditionsContinue reading “Lammas: A Celebration of Abundance”

No Knead Gluten Free Sandwich Bread

I have been struggling to find a bread recipe that is vegan, gluten free, and actually works. I figured I had enough experience making bread at this point that I could give it a go myself, and surprisingly it worked??? I was shocked to be honest. I was expecting a brick instead of the fluffyContinue reading “No Knead Gluten Free Sandwich Bread”

Chickpea flour has a nice hearty flavor and can be dressed up to have that familiar eggy taste – although it’s not perfect. Still it’s as closeContinue reading “Vegan Chickpea Omelet”

Avocado and Pineapple Spring Rolls

Spring Rolls are a wonderful tasty summer treat, yet I have found myself craving them in the middle of summer. I also found rice paper wraps on sale, so it seemed destined to be. If I was going to have Summer in February, I wanted to do it right. I gathered some of my mostContinue reading “Avocado and Pineapple Spring Rolls”

Hummus Platter Salad

Salads are one of the most simple and straight forward lunches I can think off. Pretty low fuss, healthy, and easy to transport, making them my favorite options for a busy week! This one is no exception. It is basically all the stuff you would get on a mezze platter, placed over greens to makeContinue reading “Hummus Platter Salad”

Red Beans and Rice

Red beans and rice is a dish that is of Creole origin (not Cajun, according to Wikipedia!). It is commonly served along rice in the southern state of Louisiana, and most will have likely come across it on a trip to New Orleans. New Orleans is one of my favorite cities, it’s brimming with art,Continue reading “Red Beans and Rice”

Hi, I’m Bailey!

Welcome to Green and Gluten Free! About a year ago, in 2019, I realized that gluten and avenin (a similar protein in oats) were resulting in health complications. So, reluctantly, I cut foods containing those pesky proteins out (goodbye sourdough!). Around the same time, I also elected to switch from being vegetarian to being mostlyContinue reading “Hi, I’m Bailey!”
