"You can almost smell the garlic and butter"
Veda’s Nutrition, the Gluten Free Show goes on location for a Taste and Flavor Demonstration.
David Haydon, Executive Chef and Owner of Il Davide Restaurant, in San Rafael, CA talks to us about gluten free pasta.
Our choice for delicate gluten free pasta is Rustichella d’Abruzzo. This penne pasta is made of white rice and holds your favorite sauce nicely. Special marinara sauce clings to the ridges on the pasta and fills the tubes Chef David's savory sauce. You can almost smell the garlic and butter in this video.

Tomatoes to boost Anti-Oxidants The health benefits from tomatoes are overwhelming and the recipe for Penne Arugula with Oven Dried Tomatoes features tomatoes in 3 different state; tomato sauce, oven dried and wilted cherry tomatoes. Tomatoes fortify your system and help balance blood glucose levels and gut health. Urinary tract infections show improvements for individual who boost their tomato intake. Volumes of research have been done on the anti-cancer benefits and improvements in prostate cancer. American men who ate 4 servings of tomatoes a week had a 40% reduction in cancer cells. Tomatoes are also an excellent source of Potasium, Folic Acid, Vitamin A, C & E. The weight loss or fat burning hormone called Leptin works more efficiently when the body consumes tomatoes.
The anti-inflammatory ingredients in tomatoes are Carotenoids and Bioflavinoids. Beta-Carotine the orange pigment found in carrots is a Carotenoid. Bioflavinoids concentrated in tomato skin actually help alleviate inflammation and allergic reactions. Cooking tomatoes breaks down tomato cell membrane making absorption of Carotenoids and Flavinoids more available
Sauteing with olive oil greatly increases Lycopenes found in tomatoes. Lycopene are in the red pigment found in tomatoes also found to be anti-cancer fighting. 85% of dietary Lycopene can be attributed to tomato-based products.

Oven Dried Tomatoes
Preparing Oven Dried Tomatoes is easy. I like to dry them in my 200 degree oven on cold winter's night. The oven heat will help keep your heating costs low while drying this wonderful treat. To truly dry tomatoes to a leathery state let them bake in your 200 degree oven for 8 to 10 hours.
*Slice tomatoes in 1/4” slices,
*add a little Salt
*sprinkle with Olive Oil
*I’m in love with pink Himalayan salt for its flavor, color and added mineral count.
*I like to place tomatoes on a silpat sheet for easy clean-up.
If you like a little life in your tomatoes
*try baking for 4 hours at 250 degrees.
*remove seeds if you are prone to acid reflux
