We started off Friday night with "fried chicken". I enjoy breading things and making up new tastes every time, but this time I stuck to the box instructions. I used Busquicks Gluten Free Mix and boy was it delicious. I need to work on the cooking method a little bit more but the recipe on the box (I'll post it later) was spot on for taste. We then paired the chicken with Parmesan Risotto and steamed Broccoli. Such an easy great meal! To finish it off, the kids and I made a batch of Immaculate Baking Company Cookies which were out of this world.
Saturday (and Sunday) morning started off with my daughter making pancakes using the same mix. I have explained to the children that although Mommy has to eat this way does not mean that they do, but they were all for trying it and were licking the plates. In the afternoon we headed over to Keith's parents house and for lunch they were having sandwiches. I was soooo happy I packed extra Udi's dinner rolls in my bag as I made two small sandwiches out of them. For dinner his mom made a turkey which I learned the hard way I should have avoided but I figure I have until November to worry about that again. On Sunday was the big family gathering. I knew going into it that I should probably bring something of my own, so into the bag went the left over chicken from Friday, dinner rolls and the bag of cookies. Thank goodness I did. Keith was wonderful and asked everyone what was in things and read labels for me, then offered to run to the store to get me something but I was already prepared. I did get a little hungry when we got home so I whipped up some of my favorite pasta to have and then bring to work for lunch today. Tonight is date night and I can't wait to share it with you tomorrow!
(Don't mind the kitchen. It's a rental in need of a makeover)
