Instructions
  1. Place chicken in a Ziploc bag with some milk. Let set for at least 20 minutes. Preheat oven to Speedbake 400 degrees. If you do not have a Speedbake, you might want to bump it up to 425.
  2. Place 1/2 stick of butter in a cookie sheet with sides. Melt butter in oven as it is preheating. Make sure there are no dry spots on the pan.
  3. Shake excess milk off of chicken and completely coat each piece with the seasoning mix. You can either shake the chicken in a bag, until coated, or dip each piece in a bowl until coated.
  4. Cook 15 minutes. Turn each piece of chicken and continue cooking for 10 minutes, or until cooked through.
  5. I served mine with broccoli and seasoned brown basmati rice.
Recipe Notes

Although spelt is actually a type of wheat flour, most people with wheat allergies can digest spelt flour with no problem.  Obviously, you should not eat spelt if it is a problem for you.

Beef Stroganoff Hamburger Helper

This is a great meal when you have had a busy day.  It is much healthier than the box mix that you can buy at the store, but doesn’t take any longer!

Instructions
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil and brown the ground beef.
  2. As the beef is cooking, slice the mushrooms and add the mushroom slices to the partially cooked ground beef.
  3. Combine the seasonings as that finishes cooking.
  4. Add all other ingredients, except sour cream, to the cooked beef. Stir to combine and cover.
  5. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to medium low and allow to simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked through. The time may vary depending on the type of noodles you use. Read the directions on the package. This gluten free Barilla fettuccine takes 13-14 minutes, but white spelt pasta takes 7 minutes!
  6. Add the sour cream and stir. If it is too watery, let sit for 5 more minutes. Serve immediately.

Instructions
  1. Beat egg with mixer until fluffy. Beat in remaining ingredients just until smooth. You may have to add a little more buttermilk if it is too thick. Drop by 1/4 cup onto hot greased griddle. Cook until edges start to cook, then flip and cook on other side. Continue with rest of batter. Serve warm with powdered sugar.
Recipe Notes

The buttermilk powder makes a more fragile pancake than the real buttermilk.  We like to use the full fat buttermilk.

Although spelt is actually a type of wheat flour, most people with wheat allergies can digest spelt flour with no problem.  Obviously, you should not eat spelt if it is a problem for you.
