a few months ago when at the dr, i mentioned i constantly felt a little unwell, bloated, tired... and after a little more discussion she thought it could be a food intolerance... and gave me a list of things to cut out, then reintroduce one by one to see what it might be. i think i'm fairly safe knowing it's not fish, nuts, egg or soy - so i've concentrated on removing wheat and dairy.
today marks 3 weeks gluten and dairy free, with the exception of 2 occasions (when we were guests), where i basically ate it because a) i didn't want to be rude and b) obviously i know i don't have an allergy, as they can pick up if you are coeliac with a blood test, and i'm not.
but... here i am... 5kg lighter in that 3weeks!!! so it's obviously agreeing with me! woohoo! i see no reason to give it up at this stage as i'm definitely feeling better... and the losing weight is just an added bonus. the point of this post though, is that basically i've had to do my research into what i can make that i can eat!
anyway... last night we had dinner with friends and i made something "jade friendly..." this gluten free, dairy free, sugar free orange blossom cake that i found online. it was delicious! something i'll totally make again. you can find the recipe
here. if you don't mind dairy, top with this
yoghurt for some added yumminess! and stay tuned for some other gf df recipes that i've tried and actually liked!
