So as I mentioned in part one its been a crazy, crazy week leaving me with very little time or energy to cook, and Keith not around, so last night my parents offered to make me dinner for when I stopped by. This was their first time making me a gluten free meal and I greatly appreciated the effort even though I felt like a pain in the a** for it. To say gluten had been used in my house growing up would be an understatement. My mom bakes and cooks everything from scratch. Flour was once bought in bulk there. My children one day got into a bag of it years ago and I found my son rolling around in it giggling "I'm playing in the sand". His sister had convinced him they were at a beach. Do you know what a mess it is to clean up flour? I do!! I even got electrocuted by the vacuum while trying to clean it up. I should have taken it as a sign then...
Back to my parents meal. We kept it simple with steak, red bliss potatoes and asparagus. None of them seasoned with anything more them olive oil, salt and pepper. My dad got me a beautiful piece of Filet Mignon (yes, I'm spoiled) and cooked it to perfection. My mom's potatoes came out perfect.
Thanks Parents!!!
