For Claudia and Psalm 40: I found the manual for my Oster 5838 ExpressBake on its Amazon page - the cycle that I use has a 20 minutes knead (which I do without the blade) followed by a 18 minute rise and a 42 minute bake. Hopefully this info will help you find a similar setting or program your own, though there’s nothing wrong with just trying your machine’s normal bread setting and seeing how that does.

For Adrienne I use a Oster 5838 ExpressBake which can be purchased for $69.95 at Amazon by clicking on the link. This is the only bread machine that I’ve used so I can’t say whether it is better or worse than others. However it has made plenty of loaves of bread for us in the 4.5 years that we’ve owned it.

for the person questioning about rice dream — do not use it! it’s not gluten-free, it contains barley. we use whole foods’ brand, it’s gluten-free and casein-free.

M, the Sweet Potato Peanut Stew recipe are is from Susan at Fat Free Vegan. Her blog is one of the very first blogs that I read, and many of the recipes are gluten free or are easily convertible. I highly recommend it. The black bean chalupas was a throw-together meal with the black bean mixture from Black Bean Enchiladas, and the usual taco toppings, all wrapped in Kate's gluten free wrap.
