Gluten Free Tuesdays-Marinades

Hi everyone. I hope this day finds you blessed. I wanted to share some marinades I have been using for my family lately. I know one of the hardest things my sil encounters when grocery shopping is convience food. It is just not friendly to someone with a gluten intolerance or gluten "allergy". Before I started my cullinary adventure I would always buy those store bought marinades. I didn't know how delicious and easy it was to make my own. Another thing about making my own marinade is I can make big batches and freeze then for later. Marinades are a busy moms friend...

Garlic Herb Marinade-adapted from Smoky Mountain Cafe
1 head of roasted garlic (cut the top off your garlic of your garlic. drizzle with evoo. wrap in foil. bake @ 400 for like 20-30 minutes.)
1/4 cup chicken broth
2 tbls fresh parsley
2 tbls fresh basil
1 tbls honey
1 tspn kosher salt
1/4 tspn red pepper flakes

Combine in food processor.

Stream in 3/4c. olive oil.

Marinate your chicken overnight or at least 4 hours in the mixture. Grill or pan fry.

4 tsp minced garlic
Marinate flank steak overnight, or freeze and use another day
