Homemade Gluten & Dairy FREE Burritos

3/22/16
I Really Really like the Amy's Gluten & Dairy Free Burritos! But! why did I not think of this sooner?! Why not make my own? (Technically, I had thought of this but none of the wraps I ever used worked!) My homemade burritos are not perfect but it's a work in progress.
The Amy's Burrito says rice and bean and I happen to have both of those ingredients yesterday so why not? The picture on the left is the Amy's and what I decided to eat with it because I can no longer have sour cream or greek yogurt :(
The mixture consisted of refried beans (which I'm reintroducing myself to), corn, diced tomatoes, and spicy guacamole. I mixed that plus some leftover rice I had in the fridge, warmed up the wraps, put the rice and bean mixture in them and my version of a burrito.  
 

(These are the wraps I used)

Alright so today... I ate my 1st homemade burrito and I was impressed how well the wraps did. WAAAAAAY TO GO  Toufayan!!!
Back to business... I definitely need to "over season" the mixture the next time. It's missing something... I'll do more beans and more seasonings or actually season it. This is a wonderful idea for make ahead (quick) meals. I will do this again!

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

Hough Bakery By  Gail Greenberg   &   Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral  part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have  always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra  magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately  even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow  me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I  will switch some things  around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streus...

Johnny Mango's Shrimp Fried Rice with Fiery Lime Sauce

Backstory: My friend introduced me to this AMAZING fried rice about 6yrs ago. She asked did I want "fried rice" (I'm thinking "traditional" fried rice) OH NO! I tasted this and my taste buds went crazy!!! I had her bring it as often as I could. Unfortunately I have never been to Johnny Mango (near Downtown Cleveland) myself. I have been craving this for about 6yrs and I am SOOOOO HAPPY that there is a recipe! I do still want to go to   Johnny Mango World Cafe & Bar but until then I will try to recreate it myself. If you ever visit Cleveland OH I suggest checking this out!  INGREDIENTS For the rice 2 cups  jasmine rice (I'd probably use white and brown) 2 3/4 cups  water (filtered clean water) 1 tablespoon  vegetable oil (Olive oil) 1 teaspoon  salt (kosher salt) 2  eggs, beaten 1 teaspoon garlic, minced 6 ounces  shrimp (large 31-40 count) 1/3 cup  scallions, sliced 1 cup  English cucumber, diced (organic) 1 ...
