Celiac Teen — Let go of the Gluten

Pancakes

August 9, 2009

Pancakes, to me mean weekends. They’re one of the first things I ever cooked regularly by myself. Almost every weekend, especially the ones where something special was going on, I would make my pancakes. Since being gluten free, I have tried so many pancake recipes, mixes and more, with many being good. My favourite mix […]

Vacations and thoughts

August 3, 2009

As you may have noticed, the past few posts on this blog have consisted mostly of Daring Challenges and thats about it. As odd as it may sound, my main reason for this is that I am the healthiest I have been in a very very very long time. Seriously, salt pills have been […]

Daring Bakers: Marshmallow Cookies!

July 27, 2009

This month was fun. We got to choose which cookies we made. The choice was between marshmallow cookies and milano cookies. Since I had never heard of milanos and was reminded of the marshmallow cookies we used to get (on occasion- okay, so maybe 5 boxes in my life, but they were always this special, […]

Daring Cooks: Cod with Powdered Flavours

July 14, 2009

This challenge I sort of pumped out last minute. Being summer, the days sort of just disappeared in front of me, and then I had to get ready to go on vacation. I’m likely not in range of a computer as you read this. However, I’m glad I did this challenge. Essentially what we had […]

July 3, 2009

I hope that you all had a lovely, awesome Canada Day!! Personally, I had a leisurely morning of French Toast and family, followed by Transformers : Rise of the Fallen with a friend. With all of the July Forth Preperation posts popping up around the net, I thought that I should say a little something […]

Daring Bakers: Bakewell Tart or Pudding

June 27, 2009

I made this tart/pudding/dessert/food/yummyness in an afternoon. I completely messed with the recipe, and miraculously ended up with a lovely end result. First off, I don’t own a scale, and all of the measurements were by grams or ounces. Secondly grams and ounces confuse me. So, using my mom’s kitchen math sheet, I figured out […]

Daring Cooks: Dumplings

June 14, 2009

This was a fun challenge =D. I enjoyed making these, but they took a really long time. At least a couple of hours of just folding up dumplings. All by myself… If I make these again, I will definitely make these with someone. Somehow sitting in a chair folding for a very long time looses […]

Medications

June 12, 2009

They aren’t fun. That much is obvious. For probably 2 years now, I’ve been on thyroid medication. That is no big deal. I take one pill once a day, so simple. Sure, my levels go up and down but basically it worked. Now, I have so so much more. I haven’t told you yet but […]

Daring Bakers: Strudel

May 27, 2009

This was a nice challenge. For the gluten free component, some of the alternative bakers found some good recipes, which I used very willingly =D. The strudel didn’t quite turn out perfectly, but it was a fun and very quick challenge which was nice. I mixed up mini versions of the 2 flour mixes

Daring Cooks: Ricotta Gnocchi

May 14, 2009

Yum. These were amazing. Seriously, try them. They were light, fluffy, melt in your mouth perfection. I couldn’t find the good camera, so I took some quick pics with a little one I have. The recipe was amazing, and I’m glad that I joined Daring Cooks for their very first challenge ever, because this was […]
