Hubby and wheat don't go together very well. He has this really weird intolerance to wheat, and it took a long time, lots of experimenting, food log and trips to Auckland Immunology Clinic and very scary episodes to figure out he has Wheat and exercise-induced Anaphylaxsis. If he consumes anything that has wheat and gets a sweat on, he starts to react, gets itchy, breaks out in hives, has to shoot himself with adrenalin. It sucks! And alot of people think its a joke or just don't understand it.
So, going gluten-free can be difficult but we got the hang of it. The alternatives are expensive though! But it is getting loads easier as we learn more about healthier eating and getting back to basic food. It was great when brands would bring out options, especially pasta, but that doesnt always work out!
Like tonight, I had Pasta Bake on the menu but 5 minutes into cooking the pasta it turned to glug! So disgusting! Thinking cap on, kumara in the oven, half it, gut it, stuff it with the mince, top it with the mashed kumara guts and grated cheese on top! My girl had 2 halves! Yuss! Winner!
