Gluten-free dinner: fruit and cheese plate

I was out ambulating, as I am wont to do. This takes a bit of time, given to thought. I got the urge to do something with some of that cheap brie I sometimes buy at the Asian grocery I walk by.

I bought some Danish blue cheese and some brie. I split the brie wedge, mixed blue cheese with butter, and spread it between like a sandwich. Serve with grapes and crackers or bread.


Gluten free breakfast

Since a lot of people seem to be finding my blog after searching for terms like “gluten-free breakfast” and “what do gluten-free people eat for breakfast?”, I thought I would write an occasional series on what I eat for breakfast.

I normally sleep late and eat late these days. I eat “breakfast” at lunch-time, sometimes breakfasty foods, and sometimes not. I have always cooked breakfast, and I have always been open to eating different foods.

If you have decided to go gluten-free, I cannot recommend strongly enough that you move on from the past and open your mind to the foods that are available to you. Food substitutes and analogs are a poor imitation of the foods you can no longer eat. Let them go and find new foods and new ways to prepare the ingredients you can eat.

gluten-free breakfast

What you see in this photo is this morning’s breakfast. I had home fries, thinly sliced beef sauteed in butter, an omelet with red pepper sauce, and fresh strawberries with a little cream poured on them.

So you say you still need biscuits, and bread things to go with your breakfast? You can have it both ways. The best are made fresh at home.
