Relax! The key to a calm and happy holiday meal is preparation—and Gluten Free & More is here to help with that.

Pumpkin and Sweet Potato Soup

This versatile gluten free soup is easy to modify to suit tastes and available ingredients. For a thinner consistency, add more gluten free stock. Prepare it in a crockpot to free up space on the stove. It can be made three days ahead; reheat before serving.
Prep Time25 mins
Cook Time25 mins
Total Time50 mins
Course: Soup
Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 192kcal

Ingredients

  • 3 cups pumpkin purée
  • 4 cups gluten-free vegetable, chicken or beef broth
  • 1 large sweet potato , peeled and cubed
  • 1 large onion , peeled and diced
  • 1 clove garlic , crushed
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup vanilla yogurt or dairy-free yogurt substitute (coconut, soy, rice)
  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon allspice
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon coriander
  • Rosemary sprig , for garnish

Instructions

  • Combine pumpkin puree, broth and cubed sweet potatoes together in a large pot or crockpot.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté onion in olive oil. Add garlic when the onions become translucent.
  • Stir onion and garlic into the pumpkin mixture, along with yogurt and chickpeas. Add seasonings (except rosemary) and stir well. Cover and cook over medium heat until potatoes are soft.
  • Carefully ladle mixture into a large food processor and blend until smooth. This may require dividing the soup into smaller portions to process separately, depending on the size of your food processor bowl. Place a clean kitchen towel over the top of the food processor lid to prevent hot liquids from splashing.
  • Return the puréed soup to the pot and taste to determine if more spices are needed.
  • Serve soup hot in individual bowls. Garnish each with a light sprinkle of allspice and a sprig of rosemary.

Notes

TIP: For richer flavor, use roasted pumpkin instead of canned. To roast a pumpkin, cut a fresh, food-grade pumpkin in half and scrape out the seeds and strings. Set seeds aside to toast separately. Place halves, cut side down, in a large pan filled with ½ to 1 inch water. Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven until pumpkin is soft. Scoop pumpkin from rind. Place in a food processor and puree until smooth. Strain puree through a sieve before using.

Total Time1 hr 25 mins
Course: Side Dish
Servings: 12 servings
Calories: 186kcal

Ingredients

  • 6 cups gluten-free bread cubes (about half a 2- to 3-pound loaf)

Prep Time30 mins
Cook Time3 hrs 50 mins
Rest time30 mins
Total Time4 hrs 20 mins
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: American
Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 765kcal
Author: Beth Hillson

Ingredients

  • 12 pounds turkey , fresh or frozen (thawed), rinsed and patted dry

Rub

  • 3 tablespoons coarse salt
  • 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • ¾ teaspoon gluten free poultry seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon dry mustard
  • ½ teaspoon paprika

Glaze

  • ½ cup orange juice , more as needed
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

  • Combine gluten free rub ingredients. Rub seasoning mixture over entire turkey and into cavities.
  • Set seasoned turkey in a roasting pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Stuff turkey with gluten free dressing, if desired. (Place remaining dressing in a lightly oiled casserole dish. Cover and bake according to recipe instructions.)
  • Combine glaze ingredients and brush over turkey. Truss the bird or cover stuffed cavities with aluminum foil to prevent burning. Place in preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees and roast 3 to 3½ hours, basting* frequently with pan drippings until a meat thermometer registers 180 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh. (If turkey is not stuffed, cooking time will be slightly less. Begin checking for doneness after 3 hours.)
  • Remove turkey from oven and let stand 10 minutes before carving. Remove gluten free stuffing to a serving dish. Serve with hot gluten free gravy.

Notes

TIP Baste turkey with gluten-free chicken stock the first few times until enough juices collect in the pan.

Gluten-Free Mushroom Wine Gravy

Most prepared gravies contain gluten. Making gluten free gravy from scratch is the best way to ensure that everyone can safely enjoy it. Plus, homemade just tastes better! This versatile recipe happens to be vegetarian. If you prefer to use turkey drippings, substitute drippings for a portion of the vegetable stock.
Prep Time15 mins
Cook Time20 mins
Total Time35 mins
Course: Condiment/Sauce
Cuisine: American
Servings: 4 cups
Calories: 215kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 clove garlic , minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter or non-dairy substitute
  • ½ large onion , chopped
  • 1 cup mixed fresh mushrooms (white, button, Portobello, cremini, oyster or shiitake), sliced, tough stems discarded
  • ¾ cup dry white wine
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons gluten-free All- Purpose Flour Blend or blend of choice

Stir in wine and cook until reduced by about half.
  • In a separate skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add gluten free flour, stirring in small circles with a wooden spoon to incorporate. To avoid scorching, stir constantly until thickened and the gluten free roux is milky-tan in color.
  • Add stock to roux, whisking to prevent lumps.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and stir periodically to prevent scorching. Cook down for 5 minutes to thicken.
  • Stir in mushroom-wine mixture and cook another 5 minutes over medium heat. Add more stock to thin the gluten free gravy, if necessary. Season with pepper and salt, to taste.
