Californian Cupcake Eggs

smc

By Candida in California 🙂 On my search for delicious and nutritious gluten and dairy free packed lunches for my 6 year old (who really only wants to eat GF ham sandwiches) I came across a Paleo food site http://primalkitchen.blogspot.com/ where I found these as a breakfast idea. I’ve made them several times now for breakfast at home or on the go and for packed lunches. The whole family enjoys them and they can be made to suit everyone’s tastes, yum yum yum. In a cupcake liner, add 2 slices of mushrooms or any vegetable you like 2 pieces of … Continue reading Californian Cupcake Eggs

The Best Brussel Sprouts Ever!

smc

I know … it’s a big statement to make, but this is totally amazing. My boss, Ben, saw that I had bought some brussel sprouts and shared this with me – we just had it with gluten free chicken sausages for dinner with my world famous pesto and it was simply divine. Trim the brussel sprouts and then slice them into discs. Heat some olive oil in a pan and when it’s hot, pop in the sprouts with some ground black pepper and a few caraway seeds. The outer leaves crisp up and the inner core is soft and sweet. … Continue reading The Best Brussel Sprouts Ever!

Sarah’s Scrumptious Sausage Casserole

smc

Talk about an amazing meal on a budget. This gastronomic delight cost about £7 and just keeps on feeding me back the yumminess. In a large casserole dish lightly brown about half a kilo of whatever sausages you like – vegan or meat and always gluten free of course! I chop them into about one inch sections so they are bite sized (depending of course on the size of your mouth and how hungry you are at the time of chopping!). In this one, I used Merguez, which are a type of spicy lamb sausage which my local butcher makes. … Continue reading Sarah’s Scrumptious Sausage Casserole
