Breakfast this week has been a bit of a mixed bag including dry corn thins on a day I wasn't feeling too good, leftover frittata, puffed corn cereal with banana & almond milk, fried veggies with an egg, scrambled egg with tinned salmon & avacado and of course bacon & eggs. Lunches again mostly involved… Continue reading Last Week’s Menu – 26 September

Last Weeks Menu – 19 Oct
Last week I got back to making my own almond milk again by simply used soaked almonds and blending with chilled water, straining in a nut milk bag and using.  I used this with breakfast some days or in some of my baking/cooking.  This week I made another GF spiced sultana bread to take to a… Continue reading Last Weeks Menu – 19 Oct
Corn Thins Pizza
We have been away for a few days. Â On holidays it had become the norm to cook in the unit one night and have take away the next night. Â However there is very little take-away that my husband can have. Â My sons reactions are not too bad now so he can get away with some… Continue reading Corn Thins Pizza
Quick Chilli Beef
Quick Chilli Beef is a recipe that we grew up having. I'm linking up with Oh My Glai with a flavor of the month post.  This months flavour is Chilli.  This recipe is probably about the most spicy dish we eat as my husband is not into spicy food.  We have it fairly mild but… Continue reading Quick Chilli Beef

I often use store bought almond milk. When I made… Continue reading Creamy Chicken Pasta

I wanted to… Continue reading My GF Anzac Biscuits
Spinach & Cashew Cream Dip
Below is the recipe for the spinach dip that I mentioned in a blog post a few weeks ago. It is a very easy recipe.  You could use the cashew cream base and change the ingredients to make other dips.  For example you could add some french onion soup mix to make a french onion dip.… Continue reading Spinach & Cashew Cream Dip
What I’ve made this week
Finally got my cooking mojo on again and made a few things this week. My husband has been reacting to something and getting spots again.  We think it might be one of the gluten free flours that I'm using (probably hidden sulphites).  So I tried these Chocolate Cupcakes from Healthy Chef.  These cupcakes are grain free.… Continue reading What I’ve made this week
GF, DF, Egg Free Chocolate Cake
As promised here is the first recipe from the birthday dinner menu. Â I thought I would start with the cake as this is a very important component of any birthday dinner. Â This recipe has been adapted from a chocolate cake recipe in a kids cook book. Â It was already dairy free and egg free so… Continue reading GF, DF, Egg Free Chocolate Cake
