Welcome to Gluten-Free Wednesdays (GFW), the weekly blog carnival that I co-host with my friends Linda of Gluten-Free Homemaker (sadly, this site is no longer active) and Lynn of Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures.
I got “glutened” at one of my favorite restaurants several days ago (which is a real downer on so many levels), so I don’t have too much new to share today. I’ve been relying on the tips from HONOR Your Body: How to Recover After Being “Glutened” (i.e., Gluten Exposure). There are some serious “lifesavers” there. Most of the tips come from folks who have been living gluten free for years. They are definitely worth a read. Print out the post for your reference and highlight your favorite tips because when we get glutened, most of us get a very bad case of brain fog and can’t begin to think about what we should do to recover. Having the list printed out, highlighted, and in a designated spot in your home can be very helpful!
My Highlight from gfe
~ I’m highlighting my Chocolate Zucchini Bread this week as National “Sneak Some Zucchini on Your Neighbor’s Porch Day” just passed. I didn’t get that lucky, I had to purchase mine, but it was from our wonderful new local organic grocery store, Kickshaws, and they have awesome produce, so I didn’t mind! If you’ve had a hard time getting your family to love zucchini bread, this recipe will be your secret weapon for sure! The recipe makes two regular-sized loaves or multiple mini loaves (depending upon the size of the pans), which makes this bread great for enjoying at home and gifting.
The Most Popular Post on Gluten-Free Wednesdays Last Week
We had a tie this week for most clicked-on recipes! What fun! Sharing the honors are these Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Zucchini Muffins from Tia’s Kitchen (via The Wayback Machine) and Cara’s (Fork and Beans) Key Lime Cheesecake Bars, which I featured on gfe as part of my review and giveaway of her new cookbook, Decadent Gluten-Free Vegan Baking: Delicious, Gluten-, Egg- and Dairy-Free Treats and Sweets.

Kristin uses two ingredients to create these pops. So simple, yet so good!

UGH! I am so sorry you got glutened. That sucks. And from a favorite place? I wanted to leave you a comment before, but I got confused. Glad your site is all better. Hope you are very soon. I’m excited about my muffins. People like me. They really like me. 😉
xoxo,
Tia
Shirley says
Yeah, I think the favorite place part hurts the worst. 🙁 The site issues were operator error. At least it was a new series of operator errors for me. 😉 Hehe on channeling Sally Field! I do love your muffins and really like you, too, but I did before this latest highlight as well! 🙂
xoxo,
Shirley
Audrey @ Gluten-Free Vegan Love says
So sorry to hear you got glutened again, Shirley! Take it easy and feel better!
Love your picks this week. I’m sharing an oldie this time around — a gluten-free vegan chocolate orange cupcakes recipe.
Shirley says
I’m slowly coming back to myself. Missing my brain the most still. 😉 Thanks for the feedback, dear! Your cupcakes include two favorite flavors!
