DELIVERING DELECTABLE DISHES DAY & NIGHT!

My immediate family has dealt with lactose intolerance, IBS, auto immune disorders and fatal cancer. From Fall '09-Summer 2010 I went from running 1/2 marathons to not being able to get out of bed, plagued with intense headaches, exhaustion and more. With my family history and my own immune system comprimised I was motivated to take a bit of a journey to better health. Slowly I've made considerable changes, (I'm not always 100% vigilant), but I know these changes have helped me return to better health...FOOD CHANGES: I cut out gluten, cut out most dairy, cut down on the "white stuff"-sugar, white rice & flour, decreased the amount of processed foods consumed, drink green smoothies regularly, eliminated red meat and eat more vegetarian and vegan dishes...just to name a few!

I use gluten free (GF) pasta and either a whole grain blend by Nalani Brown or a mix from Kathy Taylor for most bread, cake and cookie recipes-they are awesome! (If you like Kathy's mix, email me to order her cookbook at ishagirlclub@gmail.com.)

GF mix can be substituted straight across for regular flour if you aren't cooking gluten free!

Hope you enjoy!

Egg & Pepper Casserole (GF)

2 large pablano chile peppers (or green sweet peppers-I've made it with both)

1 1/2 Mexican blend cheese (6 ozs)
3 beaten eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/3 cup flour (Use "KKGF" Mix)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
Picante Sauce
Sour Cream

1. Quarter the peppers and remove the seeds, stems, and veins. Immerse the peppers in boiling water for 3 minutes; drain well on paper towels. Place the peppers in a well greased 2 quart square baking pan or glass casserole. Top with 1 cup of cheese.

2. In a bowl combine eggs and milk. Add flour, baking powder, ground red pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Beat until smooth with rotary or electric beater. Pour egg mixture over the peppers and cheese.

3. Bake uncovered in 450* oven for 15 minutes or until a knife inserted in egg comes out clean. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese and let stand about 5 minutes while cheese melts on top. Serve with the picante sause and sour cream.
