Food for Robby
Gluten free, low dairy and low fodmap
Robby has had to be gluten free and mostly dairy free for over a year now for medical reasons. I knew as soon as I saw this recipe from the blog Momma Knows Gluten Free that Robby would absolutely LOVE IT.
Jim and I both had some of this cake and agree with Robby, this is an excellent cake if you are gluten-free or not. If you have any friends that are gluten free you will be a hero if you surprise them with this cake!

This is a slightly different version of Mongolian Beef. It’s made with shaved steak that you can easily find in your grocery store right next to those big cuts of steak. Because this is shaved steak, it cooks up in no time. The addition of the jalapeño gives the dish a nice punch of heat but not overwhelming. I served this over white rice. You can boil your rice, or to make dinner even faster, you can use the little microwave rice cups. It’s your kitchen so I won’t tell! My family loved this dish so much I made it twice in the same week with no leftovers! This is one recipe we will be having often.
INGREDIENTS
1 pound fresh shaved steak
5 cloves of garlic, minced
1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
1 inch fresh ginger, peeled and diced
3 scallions thinly sliced
2 Tablespoons corn starch
FOR THE SAUCE
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
DIRECTIONS
Toss the shredded steak into a large bowl with 2 Tablespoons of corn starch and set aside. Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. Heat a pan over medium heat until hot, add the canola oil to the hot pan. Add the jalapeño and ginger cooking for a few minutes while stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and the beef to the pan. Evenly distribute the beef. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, stirring often. Stir the sauce and pour over the beef mixture. Mix well so everything is coated with the sauce. Let simmer for a just a minute or two and serve warm over cooked rice. Garnish with sliced scallions.

I came across this recipe on Pinterest and knew I wanted to make it as it is gluten-free and Robby would be able to it enjoy it. Although this is a breakfast dish we had it for dinner as it is definitely hearty enough to fill you up. This would be a great start to Christmas morning especially if you are cooking for a crowd as this makes a full 9 x 13 dish.
This can also be cut in half and made in an 8×8 pan.
INGREDIENTS
2 pounds Jimmy Dean hot sausage
1 bag (30 – 32 ounce) bag of shredded hash browns
pinch of salt
pinch of pepper
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
8 eggs
2 cups milk or non-dairy milk
In a large non-stick skillet, cook the sausage until no longer pink crumbling as it cooks. Drain fat and set aside. Add hash browns into a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish that you have sprayed with a non-stick spray. Pushing the hash browns down slightly. Turn your oven to broil and place the potatoes in the oven with the door slightly ajar. Keep an eye on the potatoes as you just want the top of the hash browns to get lightly browned. Once browned, remove from the oven and turn the oven to 350 degrees. Top the hash browns with the sausage crumbles and both of the cheeses. In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add the milk and whisk again. Pour over the sausage and hash browns. If you are making this the night before you can cover and refrigerate at this point. Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes or until warmed all the way through.
Enjoy!
