Gluten Free Easter

So I went out and tried a few brands of gluten free hot cross buns. I have to say they were all pretty nice – although by far these Simply Wise brand were the winner. They are probably not the healthiest, but since when have worried about our waste line around Easter.

I say if you are going past a Coles supermarket or a health food store  – it is worth going to the freezer section for these little hot cross buns.

They are “Simply” delicious

Thanks Simply Wise

 

Freelicious Corn Couscous

Freelicious have come out again with an fantastic product. I absolutely love this couscous. I have it for lunch and dinner.

It is quick and easy to prepare and I could seriously live off it.  I will add boiling water or heat up my “Moredough Kitchens” stock to cook the couscous. I add vegetables and Chicken, as well as some mayo to stir through.

I also create salads with the couscous as well – its so good and accompanies any meal/s

A definite worth while product to always have in your pantry!

 

O’Brien Gluten Free Beer

I tried this beer at a wedding a few weeks ago. I was quite impressed firstly that a guest bought the beer along to the wedding (thanks Alex) and secondly at the taste of the beer.

O’Brien beer has a sweet beer taste and very refreshing – Highly recommended

O’Brien is made in Ballarat (Yay so locally brewed) – it has won multiple awards for it’s Gluten free beer and it also comes in “O’Brien’s Natural light”

Enjoy!

 

Gluten Free Book – 4 Ingredients

I absolutely love this book – It defines the way I cook – keeping it simple. I substitute all the fructose and dairy with other products of course.

I bought it at my local supermarket for only AU$12 totally worth it, even if it’s only for ideas.

 

Three Ducks Richmond Victoria

This little store I discovered through a friend Natalie – whom is also gluten intolerant. She raved on about the fresh bread and fresh pasta. She got me so excited, I had to look on their Facebook page. Whilst looking on their, I was having a chat live about their bread It looked so good!!!!

Three ducks wrote this….

“I promise you both Jane’s and Black Ruby’s breads are sensational.

Imagine having a decent fresh sandwich again :-)

 

That was it. I had to go in.

The person in the store was very helpful and so friendly, the prices were extremely competitive. The five fresh rolls I bought were $8.50.

After a good look in the store I bought the 5 “Black Ruby’s” poppy seed rolls and went home I made myself a roll – with chicken and lettuce.

I actually thought I was eating bread – It felt wrong, but couldn’t stop eating it! It was sensational!

It had the texture of the roll and the freshness that you want (no toasting needed!).

I’ll be back to try more for sure so many good little products besides the awesome bread.

Thanks Three ducks xx

 

Arbonne

 

 

After using Arbonne, I will not look back at any other skin care products. They are completely vegan and gluten free. After discussing my intolerance with a friend, she recommended I try these products. My skin has never felt so good!

For further information regarding these products please visit my friends gateway to Arbonne http://ibloom.myarbonne.com/ or click on the “Arbonne” link at the bottom of the page.

 

 

Gluten free breakfast cereal

These Back to Nature Cookie Bitez are my favourite breakfast treat. They taste very chocolaty, have a very chewy, moreish texture, and I have trouble limiting myself to just one bowl each sitting. For this very reason, I treat myself to them once a week.

Leda – Gluten free Dunk-ins

Leda do fantastic gluten free products. So when I saw these in the supermarket I was so excited. I bought a pack home and tried them and they did not disappoint. Anything gluten free by the Leda company – you can count on being good. I suggest you go down to the supermarket and get you hands on these.
