Pepperoncini Beef Sandwiches

Pepperoncini Beef Sandwiches

Do you love sandwiches that require minimal effort, but taste like restaurant quality? These are exactly that! The beef cooks with a jar of pepperoncini's and garlic all day, you shred it, and serve it on toasted buns with melted Swiss cheese and mayo.....oh my! It's so delicious and I've never met anyone who didn't love it. It's a great dinner to serve a crowd, and goes with any of your favorite sides!

Homemade Sloppy Joes

Homemade Sloppy Joes

What family doesn't love a good sloppy joe night? This beef mixture is SO MUCH BETTER than Manwich or any canned version. The sauce has a hint of sweetness and is packed with flavor. We love to toast our buns under the broiler first so they don't get soggy from the sloppy joe meat. My son and husband love a slice of cheese on theirs too. We often have sloppy joes with tater tots to get that Napolean Dynamite vibe.

Big Mac Sloppy Joes

Big Mac Sloppy Joes

This sloppy joe recipe is the sloppiest there is, but oh so good! With all the flavors of a McDonald's Big Mac, including the secret sauce, piled high just like the original. Do you remember the jingle? "Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun! "Yep, it's all here, and the whole family is going to love it.

Chicken Cordon Bleu Grilled Sandwiches

Chicken Cordon Bleu Grilled Sandwiches

It's easy with kiddos to get stuck in a rut and eat the same things all the time (PB&J, am I right?). Kids love repetition and definitely have their favorites, as they should, but sometimes it's nice to shake things up a bit.....but just a bit. Kids tend to love grilled cheese, and they love chicken, so this is a fun way to fancy up a grilled sandwich without too much effort. I've been able to sneak these past my pickiest eaters and they love them. And why shouldn't they? These Chicken Cordon Bleu Grilled Sandwiches are so delicious stuffed with shredded rotisserie chicken, prosciutto, and Gruyere cheese, then toasted to perfection with thyme buttered bread slices. We love to eat them for dinner with some yogurt and fruit!

Ham Sliders with Pineapple Cherry Jam

Ham Sliders with Pineapple Cherry Jam

For a fun and fancy meal, give these ham sliders a try. The recipe is from Disney California Adventure Park. These sandwiches were part of a special holiday small bites festival. The jam is the perfect accompaniment to ham and so delicious on these sandwiches. We are also going to be serving it with our Easter ham this year.

Smoked Carolina Pork Sandwiches

Smoked Carolina Pork Sandwiches

Let me tell you, these are our favorite sandwiches of all time! We love to make them so often that when we smoke the pork, we do a large amount so we can freeze leftovers for future meals. The seasonings and authentic Carolina BBQ sauce make the most delicious pulled pork. Pile it high on a slider bun and top with coleslaw and you have a meal everyone will rave about!

About Me

About me photo

Hello! I'm a mom of four kids and live in Virginia. Two of my kids have celiac disease, so I've been cooking gluten free for 18 years now! It was very overwhelming when my oldest daughter was diagnosed back in 2007, but it has been a fulfilling journey ever since. I know there are a lot of gluten free blogs out there, but I wanted to create one devoted to food specifically for kids.

Through the years, I've had many friends come to me when they or someone close to them have started down the gluten free path. I used to send them an email detailing our favorite brands, what breads, pastas, pizza, etc. are most enjoyed by my kids, as well as some of our best recipes to get them started. I am hoping to help others who may be new to gluten free eating or just want to have some fresh ideas.

Cooking and baking have always been a passion of mine, so when my daughter was diagnosed, my mom told me "you're just the mom to make the best of this". Moms know just what to say!! It has definitely become second nature to me, and I've found ways to help my kids enjoy food just as much as they would if they could have gluten. The trick..... make it so delicious that my whole family enjoys it! Let's get started!
