Best of the food blogs: Weekly recipe roundup

Here are some terrific ideas and recipes happening on the food blogs I follow. I’ve noted which recipes might still need some renovation.

From Gluten-free Girl and the Chef, a video on:
How to chop fresh herbs (The video takes a while to load)

From Food Blogga:
Corn crusted tilapia with mango, corn, and cucumber salsa 

From Smitten Kitchen:
Roasted Eggplant Salad Toasts (Just use Udi’s whole grain GF bread if you’re gluten-free)

From Jeffrey Saad’s Passion for Food:
Videos on how to safely cook eggs two ways (For anyone worried about the egg recall)

From Gluten-free Goddess:
Raw zucchini “pasta” in coconut curry cream sauce (Vegan and gluten-free, no renovating necessary)
Heirloom vegan potato salad

An escape to France from Cannelle et Vanille:
Colors of the Basque seaside, lovely!

From David Lebovitz:
Farro salad with tomatoes, mushrooms, and basil (To renovate: Swap out red rice for the farro if you are gluten-free and use wheat-free tamari instead of soy sauce). Farro is a type of wheat so is NOT gluten-free. I’m guessing that red rice would have the most similar nutty, hearty consistency for this dish. I’ll let you know if I try it!
