**found in January 14th Issue of Us Magazine, and converted with gluten-free options.  Original article does not use gluten-free.

Sheryl Crow's dietitian designs a menu for Us.  Just add snacks!

by Jennifer O'Neill

Start the day with might!  "If you skip breakfast, by the time lunch hits, you'll feel the world owes you food", says dietitian Rachel Beller, author of Eat to Lost, Eat to Win.  Not so with the 290-calorie burrito.  It's a perfect combination of satisfying fat, protein and fiber, says the expert, who prescribes 30 grams of filling fiber daily-10 of those at your a.m. meal.  "This dish gives you that insurance in a tasty way!".

Breakfast Burrito

Pam olive spray
onion and bell pepper, diced as desired
2 egg whites
1/2 cup black beans, cooked
1 small sprouted gf tortilla or low carb tortilla-soft
1/2 oz. shredded Mexican cheese blend salsa, as desired

1.  Mist a skillet with olive oil.  Heat on medium.
2.  Add onion and peppers and saute until soft.
3.  Add egg whites and some of the beans, as desired.  Scramble until cooked through.
4. Pile the mixture onto a tortilla top with cheese and salsa; fold burrito-style.  Serve with remaining beans and salsa, as desired.

This one is easy gluten-free!  Just find a gluten-free tortilla like those at Rudi's! or any other gluten-free corn tortilla (soft)  Yum!!

Happy New year!

Enjoy! xoxo Julie

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com  

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

What's in The Gatorade You Are Drinking?

I don't know why I never blogged about this, but I have known it for some time.  And was just reminded of this the other day while I was at CVS and felt the need to spread the gluten-free word.  I also tweeted it. Did you know that certain Gatorade flavors like the fruit punch (red) flavor has caramel coloring in it?  Yup! It totally does. In the U.S. a processed product considered gluten-free has 20 or below 20ppm ( parts per million ).  Therefore products can seem gluten-free and even say gluten-free, even if they are not 100% gluten-free because our standards allow that and consider it Gluten-Free.   And different processed foods contain different levels of gluten-some contain less then 10ppm or even 5 parts per million.  That's lower but still...no cigar. The less you consume the better and the article I just found on Celiacdisease.about.com  points that the more under 20ppm/10/5ppm products you consume, the more gluten in your system...
