Eating Gluten Free~

First, let me apologize for the lack of posts.  Where does the time go?

Since dropping baby girl off at the university, we have been working toward establishing a new routine back here at home.   Part of which includes my teaching my little ones again on Wednesday mornings.

Yesterday was their first day.  A few tears, but most subsided quickly once they saw all the great toys we had for them to play with.  They loved listening to the Bible story, marching around the room playing instruments, crafting and music time with the "bigger" kids.

One was a bit of a handful.  New baby at home, big sister just started Kindergarten...lots of changes.  Hoping he settles down soon.  We were exhausted by the end of our 3 hours with them!!!

As I mentioned in my last post, baby girl and I have gone gluten free.  While at first we were a bit intimidated by the whole idea (especially me since I was also told to eliminate cow's dairy and peanuts as well), it is going quite well actually.  The bonus is we both feel so much better already!!

So, I thought I would share one of my new favorite cookbooks.  I have always been a fan of Cooking Light, and I was thrilled to see a Cooking Light Gluten Free cookbook at Barnes and Noble.

We have enjoyed several recipes already.  Really not missing out on anything with these.  And, the proof...hubby loves them too!!!

I love that most are also dairy free (or dairy free with a few adjustments).  For instance, I used Buffalo mozzarella on the pizza.  We also used Bob's Red Mill GF Pizza Dough mix, rather than the recipe for the crust they gave.  We had used it before and it was delicious.  Again, we didn't feel like we were losing out on taste at all with ANY of these recipes.

Hope to be back on a more regular blogging schedule next week now that we have settled in.  Enjoy your weekend!!!
