Gluten Free Fish Fry

OK everyone, Americans LOVE everything fried. BUT breading...

My answer Corn Flakes. Now some name brand cornflakes have gluten in them so you have to read your labels! Western family corn flakes are gluten free!! So mash em up and add some seasonings and you have a delicious breading for everything! From drum sticks to cod fillets!

Tonights dinner featured cod dipped in egg whites and then in my corn flake breading.

french fries, again watch your labels some of them have gluten, or are made in a facility that processes wheat products. Again off brands are the way to go!

and at the request of my ten year old, green beans.


Stay tuned for more gluten free favorites on a dime!

Hello everyone!

My name is Becki, I am a 30 year old mother of one, wife and working mom. Recently my mother was diagnosed with Celiacs disease and it made me rethink everything we eat. My mother has been gluten free for about 10 months and went from a size 22 to a size 17 with out any extra physical activity. Now, my mom is disabled, has two patella replacements and two bad shoulders. Working out has not been an option for her. Now we eat together as a family a lot so I have had to rethink my eating habits as well.

Gluten free products are popping up everywhere so yes it is easier to eat as a celicas patient. BUT those products are also very expensive. Bread costs about 7 bucks a loaf, which is about half the size of a normal loaf of bread. You want a cream of chicken soup, be prepared to fork out almost 3 dollars for 10 0z. Of course were paying for the convenience of not having to make it from scratch, but there are plenty of quick and easy alternatives that wont break the bank. Through the course of this blog i will share everything I know about eating cheap and gluten free!!!

I will share recipes and secrets, disasters, and failures.

Enjoy,
Becki
