Gluten Free BBQ Cauliflower Wings

March 14, 2018 by officially gluten free 1 Comment

Gluten Free BBQ Cauliflower Wings

These Gluten Free BBQ Cauliflower Wings have the perfect Crunch and Sticky Sweetness. My family likes them just as much as they like Chicken Wings. I love an affordable meal that I can sneak in there during the week and these Gluten Free BBQ Cauliflower Wings are a Fraction of the Price of Chicken wings. They’re perfect for if you do No-Meat Monday’s or are trying to eat Less Meat. I try to make Vegetarian meals at least a few times a week. It goes a long way on our grocery bills and we never miss the meat.

To make this easy recipe, you whip up a quick batter using rice flour and your choice of starch. I use Potato Starch but you can use Tapioca or Corn Starch instead if you’d prefer to. Coat the Cauliflower Pieces in the Batter. Place them onto a Baking Sheet and Roast for 20 minutes.

Toss the Roasted Cauliflower in the BBQ Sauce and Roast for another 5 – 10 minutes. We like it Served with a Side of Blue Cheese or Ranch Dressing and Veggie Sticks, usually Carrots and Celery or whatever I have in the Fridge.

Gluten Free BBQ Cauliflower Wings

Have you tried Cauliflower Wings yet? They’re even tastier then I expected them to be. They’ve replaced Chicken Wings at our house. I was making the Hot Sauce Version of this recipe a lot but my Son wouldn’t touch it because they were Too Hot. So I decided to Switch it up and use my favourite Gluten Free BBQ Sauce (Sweet Baby Rays) on them instead. My son loved it and My husband and I both preferred the BBQ sauce too. I’ve been making them this way ever since. They make a perfect appetizer or make a great side with rice and steamed vegetables.

They’re sure to impress even you non gluten free friends and family.

Sweet and Sour Vegetarian Meatballs

March 5, 2014 by officially gluten free 5 Comments

Sweet and Sour Vegetarian Meatballs

These Gluten Free Sweet and Sour Vegetarian Meatballs are made with Sweet Potatoes and Navy Beans. I used Dried Navy Beans so I had to soak them in water in the fridge overnight. You could get away with soaking them for a few hours if you’re strapped for time. You could also use canned beans if it’s easier.

The texture of these Vegetarian Meatballs is Different from Real Meatballs but they are a very tasty replacement none the less. They’re easy to make and can be made ahead of time and frozen until needed.

Ingredients

For the Vegetarian Meatballs

1 Large Sweet Potato

1/2 of a White Onion Minced

1 Cup of Dried Navy Beans

2 Tbsp Brown Sugar

1/2 Cup Gluten Free Corn Flake Crumbs (finely ground)

1 Tsp Dried Basil

1 Tsp Dried Oregano

1/2 Tsp Salt

Pepper to taste

For the Sweet and Sour Sauce

1 Cup Water

1/2 Cup Vinegar

1/2 Cup Gluten Free Ketchup

2 Tbsp Corn Starch

1 Cup Brown Sugar

2 Tbsp Gluten Free Soy Sauce

1. Soak dried beans in water in the fridge overnight.

2. Drain, then cook beans in boiling water for 30 minutes.

3. Peel, dice and boil the sweet potato. Then strain and mash, add the brown sugar then set aside.

4. Strain the beans and mash them into a paste.

5. Mix the beans and sweet potatoes together, then add the minced onion, corn flake crumbs and spices. Mix until well blended.

6. Place into a bowl or container and put in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

7. Using a small spoon make 1 inch balls and place onto a well oiled pan.

8. Bake at 425 F for 30-40 minutes carefully turning a few times throughout.

9. In a pot bring water and vinegar to boil.

10. Add the brown sugar and ketchup, then corn starch and soy sauce.

11. Bring to boil once again over low heat.

12. Once the sauce has thickened, set to the side.

Cover the Vegetarian meatballs with the sweet and sour sauce right before serving.
