COOKING JUST GOT REAL!!!!

Today I bought a great cooking tool for the family. It is called a Traeger Grill. My wife and I have been discussing adding this grill to our cooking tool collection. Which got me thinking about what one might need to get started on a Gluten Free Diet when it comes to instruments. So I thought I might put together a list of items for the kitchen to make sure you have.

First things first, I want to recommend a FANTASTIC cookbook to start with. The woman who wrote this cook book lives in Utah and wrote a cookbook that was a life saver for my wife and I. Here website is Irresistibly Gluten Free has some great starter recipes and some even more recipes. I HIGHLY recommend that you take a look at her website and even look at purchasing her cookbook. I plan on continuing to improve upon her start.

For the Kitchen:
At least 2 Aluminum Cookie Sheets
Nice set of pots and pans: Minimum 8 qt. pot for making soups
Kitchen Aid Mixer
Glass Bakeware: 9x13, 8x8
Bread Pans: at least 3 or 4
Cake Pans: Assorted Size
Mixing Bowls


For the bigger cookers:
6 Qt. Crock Pot
Traeger Smoker
Bread machine

Ingredients to keep on hand all the time.
Baking Powder
Baking Soda
Xanthan Gum
Vegetable Oil
Brown Sugar
White Sugar
Salt
Butter (and large amounts)
Crisco
Vanilla Extract
Milk
Eggs
Gluten Free Flour
Gluten Free Pasta

Now that is just the basics, but I highly recommend having all those ingredients, all of the items for the kitchen, and if you want even the items for the bigger cookers.

If you are looking for a great place to purchase all of your ingredients, go to Winco. We buy all of our stuff in bulk and keep it on hand. The other great place is Costco. Between those two, I am able to get all the things I need. Hope this Helps!
