Just begun baking for my daughter's engagement party on Saturday. These are #apple and #blueberry #glutenfree #gf #tortecakes

#catering #baking #foodprep

#quinoa to add to #salads #foodprep for the fridge.

It's a cool day, so #beefgoulash is in the crockpot for dinner.

Just one month since joining @9roundpakenham and I managed to achieve and win the CHOW (Challenge of the Week) - 446 jump rope skips in 3 mins.

Not long ago, I was struggling to walk after my ankle surgery; my advice - NEVER GIVE UP! 💪💪💪

Thanks so much to the amazing @9roundpakenham club and team! 👏👏👏

Yesterday, I prepared dinner and was given some buck wheat and spelt flour (both meant to be low in #Gluten). I made up a focaccia bread /cheese slice to have with soup.

Normally, one bite of homemade bread doesn't effect me, but instantly I got a #scratchy #sorethroat and #cough . I ate the rest of my dinner, then knew something was wrong when I had the rest of the #symptoms listed below.

Perhaps #xanthiumgum was hidden in the flour, because I'm still suffering this morning.

"Allergy symptoms vary from one individual to the next ranging from mild to severe reactions, which can be experienced within minutes to hours after exposure. Common symptoms of a xanthium gum allergy may include one or more of the following symptoms:

Bloating

Diarrhea

Stomach cramps

Headaches

Skin lesions

Hives

Runny nose

Sneezing

Itchy watery eyes

Scratchy throat

Cough

Hoarseness

Swelling of the lips and tongue

Breathing difficulty "

This is my easy go to recipe, when dinner has to be made and either you have little time (or in my case today), feeling a little unwell.

If want an alternative, use BBQ sauce instead!
