GF Dry Mixes

I've had several folks ask me when my dry mixes will be available and what I'll be offering.

Because the Spoon Fudge has taken off so quickly, I'm a bit strapped on time right now, so it's looking like the first quarter of next year before these mixes will be available. I'm hoping by mid-end of February to have at least a few out, if not all of them.

Currently I'm looking at the following:

Brownies
Chocolate Sheet Cake
Buttermilk Pancakes/Waffles
Hush Puppies
Fried Chicken Coating
Cornbread
Carrot Cake
Buttermilk Biscuits

In addition, I'll be compiling my favorite recipes and I hope to offer a GF cookbook that can be downloaded and printed out for a reasonable fee. I love to cook - I grew up in a large family where every meal was homemade and I've managed to take my favorite childhood and pre GF recipes and make them into something that is fantastic and fabulous. Living GF doesn't mean blah, blechy foods!

If you're interested in being notified when I release the cookbook and/or mixes, please drop me a comment and I'll add your name to the list. Thanks for your support! I'm excited to be able to offer what I feel will be the tastiest and most economical GF mixes available! :D

Easy Fried Rice

My family loves Chinese food. But being a celiac, I can't just up and go into any Chinese restaurant. I'd be afraid to even BREATH the air in there. Zoikes!

So, I've devised a few recipes that get me past my chinese cravings - this is one of them. With or without the chicken, this is a full meal and one we eat every 2 weeks or so. It's a huge hit to everyone who is here to eat it and makes an excellent comfort food!

Easy Fried Rice
5 cups cooked, cooled rice
10 slices bacon
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 bag frozen peas and carrots, about 1.5 cups
GF Soy Sauce
1 lb Chicken Breast, if desired

Fry the bacon in your wok or skillet until crispy and crumble. Leave the grease and bacon in the pan and add your eggs, sitrring to prevent scorching and cook until nearly set. Dump in the rice and stir well to coat with bacon/grease/egg mixture.

I usually add about 1/4 - 1/2 cup of soy sauce, depending on how much rice is in there. Stir to coat and add peas and carrots. Cotinue cooking until veggies are cooked through and then serve. Delish!

If you want a more meaty dish, cut the chicken breast into thin slices and toss in with the cooked bacon before adding the eggs. Stir until cooked through and then add the eggs and follow the rest of the recipe.

Enjoy this tasty treat! I'll get a photo the next time I make it (later this week).

Coming next - Chicken Pot Pie. Yum!
