What's Been Cooking/Baking?
A batch of good 'ol hummus. I had some non-gmo tahini that needed used up, and we are eating a good amount of garlic right now. Too many people getting sick.
Breakfast frittata - homemade sausage (organic lean pork with home grown seasonings) and dandelions from the freezer.
Roasted dinner with a twist (adding asparagus vs. corn on the cob).
Grain free fruit/nut bars - King Arthur Flour recipe (available online). Amazingly good and healthy. I didn't have shredded coconut, so I used chopped macadamia nuts and swapped peanut butter for the almond butter.
Made my first no knead, no yeast sandwich bread - low carb too. It doesn't rise as much as yeast bread, but it tastes great for a sandwich bread. I found the recipe online (Low Carb Sandwich Bread). It uses almond flour and coconut flour. Now my husband can have an egg salad sandwich again, and PB & J, or Tuna or chicken sandwich. I had all the exact ingredients too. Even the avocado oil. I was so shocked it tasted so good. I will still make regular bread though. Just not as often.
My mum was NOT a good cook (which was unfortunate as her mum was wonderful and made everything and well too!) However, she was able to make a nice crusty edible loaf using baking soda (e.g. Soda Bread) which did rise and was tasty (especially still warm from the oven!) Here's a recipe link if you want to give it a try. https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/irishsodabread_67445
ReplyDeleteBovey, thank you for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks yummy! I like the low carb bread and I will tell my SIL also as he was a big bread maker and now he's supposed to stay away from carbs. Well, me too actually! LOL! I found out about a plant-based milk which I need to investigate too.
ReplyDeleteSam I Am the bread tastes great!
