My gluten-free dry pasta of choice is Tinkyada (I really cannot recommend it enough). My boys really like the spinach pasta because they think it looks like worms. Add marinara to the picture and I am sure you can imagine how interesting my dinner table can get! 😉 Over the past several months, I have […]

Amazing Cole Slaw
posted on June 19, 2010 by
I have always loved cole slaw, but until my celiac diagnosis, the only cole slaws I had ever tried were doused in a creamy (and not so healthy) dressing. About a year ago, I found a recipe on Eating Well Magazine’s website for cole slaw that I absolutely fell in love with, and the best […]

Schar Gluten Free Products
posted on June 14, 2010 by
Back in the late fall I received a complimentary sampling of products from Schar to review on my blog. I am really embarrassed that it has taken so long for me to post this review, but it has nothing to do with the products themselves. There were so many goodies for us to sample (on […]
