Chocolate! Yep, Cheryl chose Chocolate as the theme ingredient for this week’s Gluten Free Menu Swap. Love, love, loooove chocolate! Just thinking about chocolate makes me feel better, that is, unless I’m craving it and can’t find any. Really, savoring a piece of good, dark chocolate is the best. Here are some of the chocolate recipes you’ll find on CeliacFamily.com and often at my house:
- Chocolate Creme Brulee (original and dairy-free)
- Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins made with a GF Cake Mix (My kids love these!)
- Brownie Pops Flower Bouquet (Fun to make for gifts.)
- Chocolate Macadamia Nut Candy (I find these totally addicting. Also good for gifts.)
- Raspberry Divinity Tarts (meringue shells with chocolate ganache and fresh raspberries)
- Chocolate Martinis (a nice treat after dinner, or a good start to the holidays)
Check out Cheryl’s post this week at Gluten Free Goodness for more Chocolate ideas from her and other gluten free bloggers.
Celiac Family’s Menu This Week:
Monday – Cheeseburgers
Making cheeseburgers with cheese bread rolls. I’ll serve them with French fries and corn.
Tuesday – Chicken Cacciatore
I’ve been looking for a new recipe to cook chicken in a slow-cooker. I found this one at The Gluten-Free Homemaker. Linda always has great recipes, so I know it will be good. Hopefully, my kids will like it, too. I’m going to serve it with rice and green beans.
Wednesday – Quick and Easy Garlic Shrimp
I didn’t get a chance to fix this last week, so I’ll try again this week. I’ll serve it with rice noodles and asparagus.
Thursday – Pizza
My son has been requesting pizza for a while. I’m going to use Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix
Friday – Chicken Tacos
Using slow-cooked Mexican chicken to make tacos. We’ll fix them with corn tortillas, chopped lettuce, shredded cheddar, sliced black olives, guacamole, etc.
Saturday – Leftovers
Pulling all the leftovers out of the refrigerator to let everyone make their own meal.
Sunday – Pork Chops
Boneless pork chops simply seasoned and grilled. Serving with roasted butternut squash and asparagus.

Who doesn’t love chocolate!!!
What a nice chocolate roundup. The macadamia covered ones look beautiful, I tried chocolate macadamias from Whole Life nutrition last week so maybe I should do a taste challenge. Can’t go wrong…

Cheryl is so smart! Choose chocolate and people are bound to love you!
I remember when you posted most of these chocolate recipes, Heather. I definitely need to make the dairy-free chocolate creme brulee. I said that when you first posted it … don’t know why I’ve dilly dallied.
Looks like a very tasty week at your house! Serving cheeseburgers on the cheese rolls sounds divine.
