		<description><![CDATA[Gluten-Free Beer Can Chicken

one roasting chicken, any size
couple of tbsp of olive oil
couple of tbsp of blackened seasoning rub (recipe here)
one potato or onion (optional; see notes)
6 – 8 ounces of gluten-free beer

Turn grill on high on the opposite side of where you will place your chicken. The chicken requires indirect heat for roasting. With the grill lid closed, this method equates to a 350-degree (F) oven.

Wash chicken. Pat dry.

Spread some olive oil over the entire surface.

Rub blackened seasoning over entire chicken.

See notes below for using beer can chicken apparatus if desired, but otherwise, pour gluten-free beer into can opening until halfway or 2/3 full. Keeping chicken upright, insert beer can into chicken’s cavity. Place all upright on grill. Close lid.

Roast for at least an hour, longer if your chicken is larger. Our chicken weighed 5 ½ lbs and roasted for about an hour and 15 minutes.

SUPER CAUTION WARNING HERE: Very carefully, remove can from chicken. There will still be beer in the can and it will be boiling (or close to it). Immediately pour beer out of can in a safe disposal area and remove empty can to where nobody can reach it (you don’t want someone to accidentally pick it up). I crunched ours and added it our to our recyclable bin of cans, all while wearing heavy oven mitts. 

Serve. Enjoy.

Shirley’s Notes: If you’re a fussy type, you can even buy a beer can chicken apparatus like this one. I didn’t have one, but I did use the base of my chicken roaster pan (basically a large metal saucer) to set the can in and position my chicken over. My top-heavy chicken did turn over half way through cooking, but it didn’t make any difference. It still roasted perfectly and looked great. But, again, if you’re the fussy type, you might want one of the beer can chicken holders. I’ve made a big batch of the blackened seasoning rub and keep it in our camping food box. It’s great for grilled catfish, zippy burgers, and more. Some folks like to insert a whole potato or onion in the neck of the chicken. The latter provides a strong onion flavor, I’m told. Either the potato or the onion can be eaten with the roasted chicken when all is finished cooking. I didn’t do that and I think it would have made my chicken even more top heavy, but it is an option. Last, be sure to follow the caution note above when removing the can from the chicken after roasting.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chocolate Zucchini Bread

3 eggs
1 cup oil (I used ½ cup extra virgin olive oil, ¼ grapeseed oil, and ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce)
2 cups sugar (I used 1 ¾ cup coconut sugar plus ¼ cup granulated sugar)
1 tbsp vanilla
2 cups shredded, peeled zucchini (about one zucchini, medium sized)
2 ½ cups gluten-free flour mix (use your favorite mix for this type of recipe*)
½ cup cocoa powder
1 ½ tsp xanthan gum
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp baking powder

In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs, oil, sugar, and vanilla. 

Add in zucchini; mix.

Add dry ingredients and mix well.

Pour into two greased loaf pans. 

Bake at 350 degrees for one hour or until bread tests done (toothpick method). Cool. Slice. Enjoy.

Yield: Two regular-sized loaves

Source: Unknown

*As I’ve noted before, I can’t always tolerate many of the healthier, gluten-free flours; e.g., sorghum, buckwheat. Therefore, my gluten-free flour mix is 3 parts Asian white rice flour (which is very finely ground) and 2 parts cornstarch. I gently mix three one-lb bags of the Asian white rice flour and two one-lb boxes of cornstarch in a very large bowl and then store the mix in several airtight containers. It’s a very economical mix that works well in most recipes. No refrigeration is needed. However, I’m sure another mix of other gluten-free flours that one would use in a similar recipe could work as well. And, as always, if you do not need to eat gluten free, traditional all-purpose flour can be used instead.

Shirley's Notes: You'll notice that I just shred/grate my zucchini the old-fashioned way, but you can use a food processor if you like. Despite its reputation for making baked goods moist, I think the addition of applesauce makes this bread just a little bit drier than if all oil was used.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cherry Upside-Down Cake

For cherry base:

2 cups fresh cherries, pitted and halved (easily done—see that tip from Aubree, or follow this paper-clip pitting method that Chelsey learned from David Lebovitz )
1 tsp orange zest
1 tsp sugar (I used coconut sugar)
Sprinkling of a little pumpkin pie mix or similar combination of spices
 
For cake batter:

½ cup butter (or coconut oil), or 1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 heaping cup sugar (I used heaping 1/3 cup coconut sugar)
2 eggs
1 cup gluten-free flour mix (I used ½ cup my gluten-free flour mix*, ¼ cup millet flour, and ¼ cup brown rice flour)
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp Crème de Noyaux almond liqueur (or almond extract)
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grease 8 x 8 pan.

Mix cherry base ingredients together and spread on bottom of pan.

Mix cherry batter together well and spread over cherry base.

Bake about 30 minutes or until fork inserted into cake comes out clean. Cool.

Serve au naturel, top with dairy-free whipped cream (my version or Diane’s), or make a simple sauce for topping (mine was a mix of whipped, slightly “chunky” full- fat coconut milk and coconut sugar---very nice).

*As I’ve noted before, I can’t always tolerate many of the healthier, gluten-free flours; e.g., sorghum, buckwheat. Therefore, my gluten-free flour mix is 3 parts Asian white rice flour (which is very finely ground) and 2 parts cornstarch.
