Gluten Free Greek Breakfast Bread Recipe
This is how my mind works.
I was looking through an issue of Donna Hay magazine and saw a recipe for breakfast bread. It was lovely looking yeasty dough with eggs cracked on top and baked. This made me think of Greek Easter Bread (bread with hardboiled eggs baked into it.) Which made me think of my friend Angie (she is Greek.) This made me think of South Africa (she is going there in a couple weeks.) Which made me think of elephants (I was charged by elephants when I was in Africa) and that in turn reminded me I need to buy new running shoes (elephants chasing, me running…) and that reminded me that my hubby has a pair of shoes he needs to return. I then thought of Nordstrom which in turn made me think about Angie again (she likes to shop) which made me think of coffee (we are supposed to meet up for coffee later.) Coffee made me think of my friend Anita (she has a great coffee maker) which reminded me that it was my turn to host Anita and her hubby for brunch.
Which brought me back to breakfast bread.
Gluten Free Sundried Tomato and Olive Quick Bread Recipe
This may be the simplest gluten free bread recipe I have ever come up with. I am talking seriously simple. Even if you don’t bake at all, you can make this bread!
This bread is basically a quick bread, which means there is no yeast, no rising, no hours of waiting – it’s quick! And how much do we love quick?
Most quick breads are sweet like banana bread or orange cranberry loaf, this one however is savory thanks to some sundried tomato pesto and kalamata olives.
This is a great bread to serve with
Gluten Free Focaccia with Grapes and Rosemary Recipe
I had a rough go of it the other day. I attended a business dinner at a lovely restaurant and despite the continual reassurances from the chef that I would be served only gluten free recipes, I got glutenized. Unfortunately this is one of the risks we face when eating food from any place other than our own safe kitchens.
My symptoms are very much like a hang-over (or so I have heard) which is a really cruel trick as not one single drop of the exquisite wine served with dinner passed my lips. I woke up with a monster headache, feeling tired and achy and my stomach was queasy. So I did my usual in these instances, I
Gluten Free Paleo Seed Fruit Bread Recipe
I had the pleasure recently of meeting Shannon Ford, Mrs. Universe 2011, she is sweet, charming and of course gorgeous. She also happens to be gluten free. She mentioned to me that she felt better after going gluten free but noticed an even bigger difference when she went on a Paleo Diet. This got me thinking.
When I first committed to my gluten free lifestyle and taking charge of my health, my doctor gave me a very clear and concise list of what I could and could not eat. Since my doctor, Dr. Vikki Petersen, is a cutting edge gluten doctor and one of the absolute best doctors in healing the gut, I did what she said.
What I did eat was l
Gluten Free Pumpernickel Bread and Homemade Butter Recipe
It can be funny how one thing leads to another. A couple weeks ago I was organizing my pantry late at night (doesn’t everyone organize the pantry late at night?) and pulled out a bottle of molasses. The molasses got me thinking about gluten free gingerbread houses, molasses cookies and then, oddly enough, pumpernickel bread. I was sure I had read in one of my many cookbooks that one of the ingredients that contributes to the dark intensity of pumpernickel bread was molasses along with unsweetened chocolate. Hmmm, low and behold right next to the bottle of molasses was
