...but I don't really like cake!!
In an effort to establish better eating habits for myself I have been trying to find substitutes for foods that I like that are a bit healthier and lower calorie. I was surprised to find that many of them are gluten free! If you are interested in seeing them/trying them, here are the recipes... I did tweak each one a little for my own personal preferences.
My favorites so far are:
Spinach Quiche - discovered because Andrea was coming over and I wanted to be able to feed her! The crust was a little tough so I might actually try using a gluten free flour next time!
Cauliflower Pizza - AMAZING. I know that this sounds horrible but you make the crust our of cauliflower. I will never go back. This is a special treat because Max loves to bring pizza home and I rarely partake, now I can. I actually plan on sharing this with KayLynn from now on as the veggies are better for her!!
Cauliflower Mac 'n Cheese - not That much lower calorie, but I like it and I like that I am eating more veggies than white flour.
This weekend I plan on trying this spaghetti squash recipe. Spaghetti squash is only 42 calories per cup!! Not that you care about calories - but I do. And its gluten free!
You have probably realized from this post that I like cheese!
Enjoy.

Can I have the pizza recipe. sounds weird but intriguing.
To paraphrase KayLynn: "I'm gonna need some of that pizza."
Without cheese our family just might fall apart. I blame it on Charlie's Italian heritage...and I'm a VERY supportive wife!
Mmm. I can't wait to test these out. That quiche was gooood. I hadn't had quiche in, um, years!
