Peaches, peaches and more peaches. Our backyard has two peach trees that have just started producing really yummy, really ripe peaches. And the question was, what should I do with them? I can find lots of recipes for peach crumbles, peach cobblers, etc, but wanted to branch out into using peaches more in the main meal. And I found this salad recipe – it was awesome! And the dressing is amazing as well!!
I also had a craving for hamburgers, but had run out of gluten-free bread (and didn’t want to pay the outrageously high price for GF bread that tastes more cake-like than bread). I had this recipe from last year so thought I’d try it again – and it worked well enough to hold the hamburger fillings, as well as a number of other sandwich varieties I tried with the rest of the bread. The kids also thought it was pretty tasty with jam and cream – kind of a pseudo-pancake.
One day I came home from work and had a serious chocolate craving, but my husband and I are trying to eat relatively healthy during the week (trying to combat the Christmas over-indulgences!). I love chocolate no-bake cookies but most of them have oats in them, which need to be gluten-free for me, and are not available in Chile. So I found this recipe and adapted it slightly to make use of what I had in the cupboards and it was absolutely delicious! Really fudgey and yummy … healthy in the sense that it uses all natural ingredients and has no added sugar – not low calorie …!

Still working on a sort of scone recipe that will work as a base for strawberry shortcake. I tried using baking soda (bicarbonate of soda), but that left a horrible taste. Did buy some gluten-free baking powder today. Will have another go. The photo was lovely.
