Fantastic!

Anonymous - many thanks for that clarification. My friend does not actually have celiac disease and only has some allergic reaction to wheat gluten, so she is able to eat oats without any problem. I should not have labeled this post "gluten free" as you ar absolutely correct about the gluten in oats. I've adjusted that in the recipe so that people will know! THX

for those of you cooking for a celiac, please make sure you are using certified gluten free oats! most commercially grown oats in the u.s. are cross contaminated, only those labeled gluten free (available in health food stores) are ok for us.

as a celiac, I am touched when my friends want to cook for me, but I am VERY wary of the high potential for cross contamination or other mistakes. please let your friends know what you are trying to do so they can offer you some helpful hints!

Michele it is so awesome you posted this -- I struggle with finding good gluten-free recipes. Not to mention that oatmeal chocolate chips are one of my favorite cookies. These look awesome, I definitely want to make these for my friend who cannot eat gluten so thanks for sharing!

Great minds must think a like! I almost made a Chestnut stuffing today but then decided on brulees instead hee hee hee, you did such a wonderful job with this. The pictures are really well done and your use of colors are amazing. I really knew that the nutiness of the chestnuts would go great in a stuffing (I must try this for thanksgiving because I have a lot of left over chestnuts) and that kumquat and cranberry relish sounds incredible -- it must be really bright in flavors which I enjoy in pairings with my turkey ^_^

That is one nice looking pasta!

There's nothing better than pesto covered anything...especially shrimps. I love to make my own pesto, slicing and dicing and changing a few ingredients- almonds instead of pine nuts, a mix of parsley and basil, sometime a bit of chilli....yum. Will have to try this sauce soon

Hey Michele this is a great recipe, I love pesto for its bright and earthy flavors -- this would go great with shrimp. I think my fiance has finally gotten over his "shellfish allergy" (I don't think it ever existed haha) so I will have to try this in the near future.

I have just found your link to this bread recipe and it is delicious. I did a blog posting about it posting photos of my attempts. Thank you so much for your recipe! It was most helpful to use some of my plethora of tomatoes.

I bought a big bag of fresh local lettuce at the year's last Boulder County Farmer's market. A number of growers extend the season by growing cool-weather crops in hoop houses.

Hi Michelle -- Just wanted to say it was great meeting you and talking to you at the dinner last night at the Foodbuzz fest. Reading your post here reminds me I *still* haven't signed up for a CSA. I need to!

2009-11-07T13:19:05.017-07:00

Hi Jeanine - the winter harvest is part of my overall CSA program - we can sign up for summer, winter or both shares. The winter share is only distributed every two weeks and is thus a large bag. The summer share fee for a single (enough for 2-3 family members) is $160 and the winter share fee is $350 which is really more than enough for us - I usually share alot with friends and use some of the produce in my cooking classes.

Hey Michelle, Give more details on how that works...

2009-11-06T10:31:43.665-07:00

Hey Michelle,

Give more details on how that works, the Winter Harvest, how much can you buy, what are the prices of them, etc....

Hi Michele, that's a wonderful post! I think the best middle eastern in Denver is Sahara, but they are not close to the university... I just registered in Foodbuzz and I am spending hours find stuff there. I just found you!

Michele,
I found your blog from the Monroe Farm CSA blog. We made the Easy Beef Stroganoff last night for dinner. What a great meal for a snowy night.
Thanks!
