Gluten-free

The Gluten-Free Recipe category on Just Maika Cooking is where you'll find dishes that are not only free of gluten but also bursting with flavor and easy to prepare. Whether you're managing celiac disease, have a gluten sensitivity, or just want to explore new options, these recipes show that gluten-free doesn’t mean flavor-free. I focus on crafting meals that are bold, satisfying, and accessible.

Take the Easy Spicy Creamy Chicken Breast and Mushrooms, where tender chicken meets a rich, spicy cream sauce—it’s comforting, indulgent, and gluten-free. Then there’s the Quick and Easy Lean Baharat Spiced Bean and Lamb Stew, full of Middle Eastern spices and hearty ingredients, perfect for when you need a warm, filling meal. The Best Fragrant Creamy Potato Coconut Curry Fish Soup blends creamy coconut and aromatic curry spices into a soup that’s rich in both flavor and texture.

If you’re craving something fresh and tangy, the Salsa Verde Turkey and Beans Tacos with Avocado Cream offers gluten-free tortillas packed with bright, flavorful ingredients that come together for a satisfying bite. And finally, the Easy Sheet Pan Spicy Miso Salmon Rice Bowl makes dinner a breeze with a nutritious, delicious combo of miso-glazed salmon, rice, and veggies—completely gluten-free, of course.

These recipes show that gluten-free cooking can be simple and exciting, offering a world of flavor in every dish.
