I used to love Nutri-Grain bars, pre-celiac. I miss having something easy to grab for breakfast in the morning, that I actually like. I have tried all the GF cereal bars and while they are okay, they are not the same. I found this recipe and WOW! They taste just like I remember Nutri-Grain bars […]
Halloween Note
posted on November 4, 2009 by
Just in case you are reading this and are new to the gluten-free diet, I thought I would point out a Halloween treat that is not gluten free but by appearance, you might think that it is. Barley and Rye are not one of the 8 top allergens and are therefore not required to be […]
Gluten Free Artichoke Dip and Some Halloween Fun
posted on November 1, 2009 by
Last night was clearly a successful evening…the children totally “high” on sugar! We always have some friends and family join us for Trick-Or-Treat night, the dad’s get to herd the children along the route to candy paradise and the mom’s get to sit back and enjoy a libation 🙂 But, before the mom’s “checked out,” […]

Found this cute idea in the Taste of Home Halloween Edition. I made my spaghetti with Tinkyada GF Fusilli noodles. The boys had fun with it and ate the spaghetti but scrapped the orange bell pepper…figures!

I made more cupcakes for Luke’s Halloween party at school tomorrow, but I toned it down a bit in the body part category! Two year olds can “spook” easily. 🙂

I made some “spooky” gluten-free cupcakes to send to Sam’s class today and thought I would share what a lot of sugary icing and body parts gummy candy can do! Sam loves Halloween and so do I. This time of year, I just let go and allow myself to be a kid again. To run […]
Gluten Free Halloween Treats for Kids
posted on October 29, 2009 by
I found some gummy bears by Yummy Earth at Whole Foods a couple of weeks ago. I thought they would be a good treat to put in the boy’s lunch boxes. Inside the big bag, there are 30 little portion sized packages. I was surprised at how much I liked them, and I am a […]
2009 Gluten-Free Allergen-Free Halloween Candy Lists
posted on October 24, 2009 by
I cannot believe Trick-or-Treat is already here! This will be my first year checking out the loot bag for gluten-containing candy in addition to the usual precautions, so I am getting my lists printed out now because my husband will inevitably need to take a copy (as well as a flashlight) along route as my […]
