I have adapted this recipe from my version of a gluten free Shortbread Creams recipe that I use. Gluten free biscuits can often spread on the tray & you can end up with 1 large "biscuit". However I've found that these work well. After experimenting more with making gluten free chocolate afghan biscuits, I believe… Continue reading Gluten Free Jam Drops
What biscuits or baking do you associate with Christmas? For me, growing up we always had shortbread, lemon crunch slice, melting moments & chocolate afghans. All of these recipes were in my mothers recipe ring binder. I think most of them came from my Grandma & I have photocopies of the recipes from my Mum. … Continue reading Baking Up a Storm
This gluten and dairy free shortbread recipe, is another of my go to recipes that people who aren't gluten & dairy free also enjoy eating. My husband likes these biscuits iced but shortbread is of course usually eaten without icing. At Christmas time I usually make Christmas tree or star shaped biscuits with this recipe. … Continue reading Gluten Free & Dairy Free Shortbread
These gluten and dairy free chocolate brownies, would have to be my go to slice recipe & my most often made snack. This is usually what I make if I have to take a plate of morning tea anywhere. It is eaten & enjoyed by everyone even though it is gluten & dairy free. I… Continue reading Gluten & Dairy Free Chocolate Brownies
I found this Easter Fridge Slice recipe in the April Coles magazine. Â I adapted the recipe to make it dairy & gluten free. Â Mine didn't have any easter eggs so I think you could make it any time of the year, for a special treat. Â As it was a no bake slice it was a… Continue reading Choc Fridge Slice

It's been a while since I've posted about what I've been cooking but thought I would start this again. Â I'm not sure that I'll do it every week especially as I sometimes end up doing the same things. Anyhow here is what was on the dinner menu last week: Monday - Ham steaks & pineapple… Continue reading Last Week’s Menu – 6 Feb 2017
"What's for Dinner?" has been the catch cry of my children since they could talk. Â Often this would be one of the first things my daughter would ask in the morning when she was little. I started menu planning a few years ago and have found that it helps. Â I usually plan and shop for… Continue reading What’s for Dinner?
