Dill Pickle Chips w/ Dipping Sauces

Have you ever seen these out in the stores? Dill Pickle Potato Chips?? I have!  About two weeks ago I was with my brother Greg at Messina Market ( a great eatery/market that carries tons of gluten-free items, including gluten-free bread and will even clean the deli slicer for you, if you ask).  Well, I was really hungry so I got a tuna sandwich with gluten-free bread ( I was super psyched), some gluten-free gummies, a large iced cappuccino and a package of olives.  My brother asked if I was pregnant.  I was not.  Just typical cravings.

Suddenly it was like love at first sight, I saw them.  Sitting in the corner with the rest of the chips and I went right for them.  Dill Pickle Potato Chips.  OMG Heaven!  I wanted them.  My mouth was watering.  They were Route 11's Dill Pickle Potato Chips which happen to be gluten-free (not the sour cream and onion ones), yay me! Score!!.  Of course, Greg thought there was something wrong with me, with all of the random foods I had chosen.  But OMG.  Heaven.

Then I remembered this article I ripped out of Oprah Magazine on these amazing dipping sauces that went hand in hand with this fabulous chip.  I must tell you!  This is a great app to serve at a gathering, or for your kids, or your husbands while watching a game.  

Three Cheese Pepperoncini Dip
In a food processor, blend 3/4 cup sour cream and 2 tbsp. cream cheese until smooth.  Add 1 cup cottage cheese, 1/4 cup drained pepperoncini, 2 tbsp. fresh parsley, 1 tsp. lemon zest, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp. kosher salt.  Pulse several times to combine into a chunky dip.

Creole Mayonnaise
Stir 1 tbsp. Creole or Cajun seasoning or use 1/4 tsp. each cayenne pepper, ground black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and kosher salt into 1 cup mayonnaise.

Enjoy! xoxo Julie

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com  

The Original Fudgsicle Mishap

                             My Grocery Cart About 3 months ago I was in the market as usual,  doing my weekly grocery shopping, in the second to last row: the freezer section.  I wanted my weekly fudge pop indulgence.  I grabbed the package in the backity back!! The most frozen one I could find, and decided to blog this wonderful gluten free treat.  I realized I had never blogged about this fudge pop being gluten-free, and how silly of me to keep this tid bit to myself.  So I grabbed my phone to take a picture of the front and back of the box.  I gasped! omg, omg, omg.  I starred at the ingredients.  MALT FLOUR.  Yikes!  No way!  It can't be.  How come I never noticed this before?  Did the ingredients change?  Was it always like this?  Something had to have changed and then to top it off I noticed at the bottom of the ingredient...
