Our family tradition for Sunday mornings are delicious pancakes!! Of course I make a few changes to the plain recipe to make them a little healthier; first of all we add some mashed bananas, then some plain vegan protein powder and Greek yogurt to make it a complete meal, some flax seed and psyllium fiber to add some extra fiber and to top it off add in some fun mini chocolate chips! #yummy #fiberandprotein #gffree #dietitianmom #happysunday #pinterest (at Empower You - Nutrition • Health • Lifestyle)

I'm always looking for interesting ways to up my protein and fiber and found this neat one at Winners. It's a hemp protein powder and per serving has 5 grams of fiber and 4 grams of protein. It may not look pretty when mixed in but I have been adding it to my morning oatmeal. No taste profile but it does add a bit off texture. A+ in my books!!! #fibersource #gffree #dairyfree #healthyeating (at Lloydminster, Saskatchewan)

Frankie and Bennys attempt at a Gluten Breakfast

On the weekend while we were at McArthur Glen in Bridgend, we decided to go get breakfast and checked if Frankie and Benny’s attempt at a Gluten Breakfast was any good.  They do not have a specific gluten free breakfast menu but they did have a separate gluten free regular menu but the bonus that I had in this Frankie and Benny’s was that the manager was a Celiac.  That helped a lot as she advised what I could and couldn’t eat on the menu.

What I did find that there wasn’t a huge selection to choose from which basically consisted of eggs, bacon and beans.  Not something you want to pay £5+ for so I ended up having a start from the gluten free menu which was potato skins and extra bacon.  Very nice but its something of a common thing that most gluten suffers will do and that’s make a best out of a situation as there might not be many options.

Though the staff were fantastic and made sure that I had not been glutened.

Urban Tap House Gluten Free Burgers

Sorry for the delay in post, I guess not a lot has happened to me in the Gluten Free world that was worth mentioning about until Last Saturday when the Girlfriend and I visited the Urban Tap House on Westgate Street in Cardiff.

We were off to the cinema and in the past I would always avoid eating before cinema, Gigs etc. as, well, I would be very Ill but as now I know I am allergic to Gluten, I no longer feel I should avoid eating before these things.

So having a look online we found that Urban Tap House offers Gluten Free Burgers and along with gluten free beer too.  Something I have not had since going gluten free.

As I was driving, I didn’t opt for a gluten free beer (but I know exactly to go when I do go out next time) but I ordered the The Classic which included Prime ground beef, melted Welsh cheddar and crispy bacon and of course, the gluten free bun.

At first I was not confident on the server as I was unsure if he 100% knew what I was on about when ordering a gluten free burger but, like everywhere else, I have to assume they do.

Along with gluten free fries, the burger came and and looked pretty good.  It was small but you kind of expect that being gluten free however, it was really nice and with a decent price tag of £8.95 is about the price you pay for the burger.

I was silly and did not take a photo but I will be hitting up Urban Tap House in the future on my weekly binge of cinema viewing.
