We had an exciting adventure cooking dinner Saturday night. I had bought some plain coconut yogurt thinking it would be perfect for the beef stroganoff that I was planning to make. When we opened it to put it in, it had some green fuzzy stuff growing in it! Gross! I was thinking on my feet that night though–I grabbed the dairy free cream cheese I had in my fridge and when the dish didn’t have the desired tang you usually get from sour cream, we added some apple cider vinegar! Ta-da! Diary/gluten-free beef stroganoff that even the pickiest eater in my house devoured!
The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over at Celiac Family is pomegranates! Pomegranates are a funny fruit to try and eat–I remember trying one once as part of a homeschool unit! I prefer to use the juice to flavor a smoothie. It will be interesting to see what kind of recipes you can use pomegranates in!
My breakfast this morning–plus a banana! I almost felt normal š I was hungry for muffins this week, so I made two different kinds and boy are they yummy!
Breakfasts: cereal
Lots of Double Chocolate Blender Muffins–Still going strong on these š
Lighter Blueberry Muffins
Apple Cider Muffins
German Apple Pancakes These were super yummy!!
Sausage Potato Breakfast Taquitos
Zucchini and Sweet Potato Hash Still need to make this!
Lunch/Dinner:
Beef Stroganoff over rice
Bacon/Mushroom Frittata This got skipped last week.
Fried Rice
Beans and rice (or hotdogs)
Tomato Soup
Smoothie and Popcorn
Pizza, salad
Healthy dessert: Coconut Vanilla Ice Cream

Both kind, I come to say, are outstanding. I do have a thing for blue berries, though.

It was so good we ate it before I could get a picture! My husband (who is super picky!) said it tasted just like the real thing. š

Your quick fixes for the beef stroganoff sound great. I hate not having ingredients but I love when “thinking fast” works out and is totally yummy.
I’m interested in the Coconut Vanilla Ice Cream too.

I haven’t had time to make that yet, but I have all the ingredients so I’m hoping I’ll have time today! I love simple recipes and I’ve been dying for a cheaper alternative to dairy free ice cream!

I have a hard time with pomegranates, the little seeds in them just never sit right with me. Oh well, looks like some delicious meals for this week. Have a good one!
