The picture may not be clear, but it’s a good indicator of a great day when you get a box and it say “chocolate” under “declare contents”. This was a gift from Ricki of Diet Dessert and Dogs , and oh my, did it make my month.
Chocolate is the theme fo r this week, and I posted the best chocolate ganache ever…it’s heavenly silky, rich, truffle-esque and gluten and sugar free. Go on, check it out!
It’s part of my two part “Sweet treats” series. The first was a lucious sugar free vegan caramel dip , which is just fantastic, and I finally got a better shot.
So what a week it’s been (besides the food!). An article I co-wrote on Celiac and Thyroid Disease is now published, I posted a gluten-free turkey list updated for 2010 and I have a very exciting project coming up this Friday–filming a video on Celiac Disease , with a small segment on gluten intolerance, too. If you’re in the DC area and interested in coming, please do email me!
Okay, food.
Monday:
getting DH to take me out to dinner (I hope!) E, if you’re reading this, consider it a not so subtle hint.
Tues:
White beans with turkey, broccoli and pesto (super easy and yummy)
Fun treats:
Apple butter, made from local apples, which is cooking as we speak. Yay crockpot!
E’s cake (AKA chocolate hazelnut torte)
Apple Crisp
and whatever else inspires me….
