Betty Crocker gluten free cake mix banana bread




I feel good! I love to be creative and tonight I was creative. I had six bananas that needed to be made into something before the fruit flies carried them away. Banana bread...yup...that is what I wanted to use them for. I googled gluten free banana bread but wasn't inspired...then I was inspired...I went to the cupboard and took out a Betty Crocker gluten free yellow cake mix and dumped it in a mixing bowl. I added some vanilla and an egg and six mashed bananas. I mixed these items together and then added a bunch of hand-broken-up walnuts. I spooned the mixture into a lightly oiled with oil spray loaf pan and baked it for an hour in a 350 deg. oven. Cooled it on a wire rack, sliced it and enjoyed it.

Gluten and dairy free pecan cookies


I used to love pecan sandie cookies and today I felt as if I was back tasting those goody goodies...I made the pecan cookie variation on the Hodgson Mill cookie mix box. They are yummy and I made them with only shortening and no butter.
Hubby is a pecan sandie lover too and he ate some and was wowed as well.

SO WOW! Another recommendation...HODGSON MILL cookie mix...

HAPPY LABOR DAY! MAKE COOKIES NOT WORK!

I can't believe Udi's bagels are gluten free


I already reported that I love Udi's breads so I went on to try their bagels...oh as you can see I am indulging myself with an Udi's bagel with a slice of Almond pepper jack cheese (made with almonds=milk free)...

The texture is amazing...the taste, dreamy.

How DO they DO it?
