Food to Try – Livie's Gone Gluten Free

While at the GFAF Expo I got tons of coupons for different Gluten Free products. Including $1.25 off of any Rudi’s Bakery Product. Since I had heard awesome things about their Cinnamon Raisin Bread, I decided I’d try it for myself!! 🙂

I’ve tried it with a couple different toppings (peanut butter, butter, and raspberry jam) and this bread tasted yummy with all three. It’s a bit denser than what I’m used to with my “normal” but it was delicious nonetheless. I’ve toasted it each time I’ve used it because I prefer Cinnamon Raisin Toast, but with as soft as this bread is . . . I can’t imagine it wouldn’t be just as tasty straight out of the bag!

I think this bread is delicious, and will definitely purchase this product again. If you’re in the market for Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread, you should definitely try this one!! It’s super tasty!

Have y’all tried any Rudi’s products? If so. . . let me know what your favorite product is in the comments below!

As usual . . . this product recommendation is entirely my opinion. The product recommended within this post was purchased by me, and I’m only mentioning it on the blog because I sincerely like the product (as in may or may not have had three pieces today. . . oops!)

Have a Marvelous Monday y’all!! I’m going to go crawl back in bed to play Words With Friends as allergies and the beginnings of a sinus infection are throwing me for a loop today.

See y’all back here tomorrow!!

Love,

Olivia

Happy Wednesday Y’all!

Okay, so I LOVE Pinterest. It’s the best. Recipes, craft projects, and cute clothes all in one place? Count me in!
So, let’s talk about a few recipes, shall we? These are ones that have made my list to try to make Gluten Free. Or just try to make in general. They’re on the docket for recipe testing soon, and I’ll be sure to tell y’all how things work out! 😉

1) Carne Guisada:
If you’ve never tried this, I don’t know that we can be friends. I’m totally kidding of course, and it’s not Gluten Free. But you do need to try it at some point, which is where your bestie, Olivia, comes in. 😉 Hopefully, I’ll have time to do some recipe testing for it soon and have a recipe up here by November. Basically, It’s a REALLY YUMMY beef stew served with handmade flour tortillas. It has Latin origins, and LOTS of people claim to have made it first. Frankly I don’t blame them, because it’s delicious. But I believe it’s originally a Mexican dish that has become classic Tex Mex fare. It has a really rustic soul food feel to it, and it isn’t the prettiest dish when plated — but it is SO dang yummy. Here’s a picture I found here:

2) Ratatouille:
No, not the Pixar movie. Although this show is hysterical, I was talking about the vegetable dish. It looks really pretty, sounds yummy, and I plan on attempting it soon! (By the way, the picture came from here.)

3) Chuy’s Creamy Jalapeño Dip:
This stuff is delicious. Like, “I could drink it alone” kind of yummy! But, I don’t want to have to go to Chuy’s every time I have a hankering for it. So, I’ll be testing a recipe for it soon so I can make it anytime I want. 😉 Picture from here.

4) Pumpkin Pancakes:
Because, umm. . . It is fall y’all! Also known as the season of ALL THINGS PUMPKIN! 😉 And really, who doesn’t like pancakes!? (Pic from here)

5) Churros:
Like mini fiestas in your mouth, these are pure cinnamon and sugar-covered deliciousness. I am so SURE there’s a way to make them Gluten Free! There just has to be. Am I right!? 😉 (Picture from here)
