Our Gluten Free life....

I must say that we have adjusted very well to this new life. It has been hard for Josiah and myself many times but we both know it is the best for our bodies!!!

We will find out soon if Uriah has Celiac's Disease also. I am 99.999999% sure he does, as he reacted very poorly to it when introduced to his system. More on that as we know....

I have found myself to LOVE Pamela's Ulitmate Baking Mix. I use it to make everything baked!! Only problem is that IF dairy is an issue for the family, I have to stop using it!! I can use it just like regular flour in most recipes. But we will see!!!

I have wanted to post some of our favorite recipes with pics, but just haven't gotten around to it yet!! Sorry!

So here we are in the middle of our second year. I am looking forward to learn how to bake and cook with my own flour mixes. But that will take time I know. There is so much valuable info online now. I am thankful for my computer!!

So, we are doing well. The kids seem to be doing well. Except for I really do believe that dairy is an issue for all of us. But again, still need to be tested for that.

Well that's all on that!!

Gluten free....

AHH, so I am trying really hard to cut costs with my hubby's hard earned money!! But this Gluten Free diet is so expensive. I know that the LORD has given us this and will provide though. I am trying!! Our favorite gluten free things are:

Corn tortillas with a slice of cheese (this is our grilled cheese)

Pamela's Chocolate Cake mix

Zuchinni Brownies made with Pamela's Ultimate baking mix

Pamela's Ultimate Baking mix (I use it for everything!!!!)

Enchiladas

Rice and Bean meals!

Pamela's Brownie Mix

Bob's Red Mill Pancake Mix

A favorite snack is Potato Sticks with melted cheddar, sour cream, and ketchup! I know weird, but is it kind of like cheddar fries!!

I must say that I am getting the hang of gluten free baking/cooking. I haven't strayed too far from the mixes but that is ok!! The kids and I are happy, healthy, and doing well!!

A Sausage and Bean skillet:

Turkey Keilbasa

Brown Rice

Lima Beans

Celery, Onions, and garlic

Tomato Puree

The kids really liked it! They literally licked their plates clean! LOL It was really tasty! The recipe came from hillbillyhousewife.com. SHe has some really great menus, recipes, and cheap meal ideas! I am trying to lessen our grocery bill by a large amount. I am using her recipes most of all!!

Here is a pic of dinner:

May not look appetizing in the pan but it looked good on a plate! I normally would have served this with corn bread but I had to rush, Little Buddy needed Momma!!
