Gluten Free Recipes

Here’s a delicious ground beef recipe that we’ve enjoyed in the past, and would be a quick dinner on a busy day. We could use some of the herbs from our garden that the chef dried in the dehydrator this fall.

The recipe is adapted from Quickies: Ten Quick Ways with Everyday Foods,one of my favourite cookbooks.

Spanish Dinner

• 1/4 cup diced onion

• 1/4 cup sliced stuffed green olives
• 1 cup instant rice
• 3/4 tsp dried thyme
• 1/2 tsp oregano
• 1/2 tsp basil

2. Add ground beef and cook, stirring often, until meat is browned.
3. Add corn, tomatoes, olives, rice and seasonings.
4. Cover tightly. Simmer, stirring often for 10 minutes.
