Hungry
Lately I have been busy working, being sick / crazy allergies , and doing the mom thing . I have not had much time to get inspired . My reason for the inspiration this week has come forth out of the curiosity of glutionus rice flour .
My first thought down the aisle was yuck gluten . Silly me . Rice doesn't have gluten . It just means the sweet sticky rice flour . So now I'm cruising the blogs for simple quick recipes to try out . Feel free for some suggestions . I already attempted dumpling with a not so yummy outcome :P .
Also having been so busy I haven't been meal planning as much and when that happens the door slamming begins . I don't mean big doors I mean my pantry and fridge doors as I wander between the two with a hungry tummy hoping something will catch my eye . You know what I'm tired of fruit / veg and water . Done. Even dairy booring . I just want to bite into a gooey ready made pizza or have a fekking sandwich that I don't have to use a microwave to thaw the bread first and burn my damn hands on . Honestly when hunger creeps up on me I just want to tantrum like my 3 1/2 year old .
So getting past my hunger pangs I am going to be trying more ethnic recipes . I have a whole bag of tapioca starch which only cost me $1.99 and a bag of glutinous rice flour which was about $4 . So this is me going off now to search for great new recipes on the web . Wish me luck .
Cheers
Doing the family thing with Kara & Sheila at Science World . Was so much fun ! |

This weeks find Childrens bubble bath and lotion
This week I found 2 new products while shopping at Thrifty foods . Bubble bath and lotion for children . The products are made by Nature Clean and are wheat and gluten free . The bubble bath has a nice scent but I was a little disappointed in the bubbles . They didn't stick around very long . The lotion on the other hand is great . Makes hands silky , is 99.7% natural and is odor less . Gentle enough to use on babies and for sensitive skin . Lotion 2 thumbs up but pass on the bubble bath .

This weeks finds
So this year I decided to do some weekly finds . One of my favorite little shops to go to is the Food Warehouse on west 1st street right off of Lonsdale . I popped in there while hubby was getting comics and took K with me . We love poking around in there . They have unique treats and foods from many different backgrounds .
This week I found some amazing noodles . They are made by the King Soba company in a dedicated gluten free facility WOO HOOOO ! They were about $4 for the bag . I picked up Pumpkin Ginger Rice noodles and Sweet potato & Buckwheat noodles . I tried out the Sweet potato ones that night with some marinara sauce & chicken . They were nice . The flavor wasn't overpowering and they cooked quickly . Like in 4 minutes which is awesome . I am going to give this weeks find 4 stars .
Also I want to thank the Blue Diamond company http://www.bluediamond.com/ for coming out with some wheat/gluten free crackers . They proudly support the Celiac Disease society . They have a line of nut & rice crackers which are excellent . I am fond of the chedder ones and so is the rest of my family ( I think next time 2 boxes are needed ). I found these at Pricemart and the Food Warehouse for around $4
Also it seems my lactose intolerance has some what decreased as I have been able to reintroduce some dairy products back into my lifestyle . This makes me extremely happy as I have a love of dairy .
Has anyone else found some hidden gluten free jems ?

Butterscotch Buns
Every Christmas morning I make these buns for my family. Its my contribution to breakfast . Unfortunately I was too busy and forgot to take a photo of the final result they turned out well for a gluten free version.
Dough Ingredients:
1 cup bobs red mill biscuit & baking flour
1/4 + 1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tbsp sugar
4 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup rice milk
Filling :
1/3 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
You will need a muffin pan or two .
Mix all ingredients from dough together starting with all the dry ingredients then adding the butter then milk. If using a electric mixer it take about 3-5 minutes of mixing. Place in fridge for 1-2 hours.
Preheat oven to 300 f .
Remove from fridge and knead 10 times. Place cling wrap on your rolling surface. This will help in the rolling process. You also need to dust it with flour. I used rice four. Once rolled out in a rectangle 8x10ish mix the filling together and spread over the dough. Once covered gently start rolling down to form a long roll. Cut roll into 1 1/2 " - 2" thick and place in muffin cups . Bake for 20-30 minutes but keep an eye on them . Once they are browned take them out.
These are a biscuit like bun and are great for breakfast or a quick snack . Would also be good with frosting.
Happy test kitchen everyone and happy 2011!

Back off those are MINE- brownies!
Its really hard to share something this good with others |
This is by far the best recipe for brownies I've redone . You get a nice crunch on the top but the inside is super moist with more chocolate than I know what to do with . Even my hubby was sneaking them at bedtime.
For this amazing recipe you will need :
2 cup sugar
1 cup white rice flour
1/4 cup sorghum flour
4 eggs
3/4 cup cocoa
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup lactose free margarine
1 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 325F
Slowly melt your margarine in the microwave or on the stove . In a large mixing bowl stir together sugar and cocoa then add the melted margarine .
Add the eggs and vanilla and blend.
Then add the flour and chocolate chips stirring until batter is smooth .
Pour into a greased pan and bake for 40-50 minutes . Insert a toothpick to check if done . Should come out clean .
Let cool and enjoy .
