Hello world! Hello 2012 and hello people who follow and read this blog!
I've been MIA for a while now I know, between moving back to Michigan and then the Holidays I have been swamped with stuff. But I am back and ready to start back on my yummy healthy gluten free blogging adventure.
To start off I want to shout out to these 2 restaurants who have an amazingly assessable and tasty GF menu...Red Robbin has a great allergy menue actually. You can figure out what to substitute with what depending on your personal allergy issues. I had the cheese burger on the GF bun and it was AWESOME!
The next place I've eaten out at is Chillies....And oh my gods was it good. They too have a pretty nice GF menu and I was able to have an actual meal not just a salad.
So there is my shout out on that. Two really great and really accommodating restaurants.
Next, lets talk holiday goodies and being Gluten Free....I was nearly devastated when I realized I would not be able to partake of my mom's anual Rum Cake. Then I found this recipe and all was well in the world. I used Pamela's baking mix for the base and for the glaze I used my mom's recipe which is, water, sugar, butter and rum.
This turned out so good my mom (who likes to taunt me by telling me how she can eat anything she wants) liked it and said next year she will make all her rum cakes GF....WIN!
She also adjusted some of our dinner favorites to be GF and they came out awesome as well. Orange glaze meat balls with gluten free panko style bread crumbs and sausage balls with Pamela's baking mix...all turned out super good...
Want the recipes? I will post them later.
And in closing I got my sample pack of Katz gluten free samples...there wasn't a thing in that box that wasn't good. They have by far the best gluten free baked goods I have found pre-made...Get yourself some! http://www.katzglutenfree.com/
There you have it guys...I am back and promis more photos and adventures.
<3 Happy 2012
