Breakfast cereals

This has given me a lot of grief, I get sick of gluten free toast for brekky and most of the cereals seem to have added gluten. After forcing myself through a couple of boxes of Lowan Cocoa Bombs (nice but I'm less of a Cocoa-in-the-morning sort of person) I discovered:

Food for Health Life Food "The Fruit Free Clusters" in the health food section of Coles. They're gluten free, frucose friendly, dairy free, peanut free, and Australian owned and made. They're basically a mix of grains, which impressively includes Chia, and are the best muesli substitute I've tasted. At $7 a box it's not cheap, but better than the Whisk and Pin alternative at a whopping $15 a pop for a very, very ordinary gluten free experience.

Pizza? Yes You Can!

It's been a while since my last post, but I have been busy experimenting with recipes. And my friends, it's paid off. I bring you the Low FODMAP Pizza!

- Gluten free wraps (e.g. freedom foods)
- Leggos Sugo di Pomodoro pasta sauce
- Pizza cheese
- toppings of your choice (e.g., ham, capsicum, baby spinach, etc)

Use the wrap as a pizza base, add a generous amount of the pasta sauce on top, a light layer of cheese, followed by your toppings and then another light layer of cheese. Grill on a low setting until cheese is lightly browned.

Ok, Ok, so it only slightly resembles a pizza, but I promise you it's tasty :)
