Roasted apples with cinnamon

Hi everyone! What is your favourite fruit? Mine is definitely banana, berries and roasted apples!  Yesterday my grandpa gave us a lot of small apples from his and granny's garden. They are quite sour, but they are so aromatic! So, I created a really delicious thing - roasted apples with cinnamon and brown sugar☺Perfect for apple pie, toasts, sandwiches, pancakes and rice. I love the spicy scent of cinnamon and warmth of baked apples with wrinkled skin! My granny also loves apples☺She usually streaks the apples, mix with cinnamon, lemon juice and sugar and make a really yummy jam, perfect for her signature apple pie! Granny makes the apple pie using wheat flour, but she and I are thinking about making a gluten free version, so stay tuned☺ Today my auntie has brought us a freshly baked apple pie from my granny. What a pity I can't eat it. But I'm happy my mum, dad and brother can enjoy it! I can eat only processed apples. Raw ones are very harmful for my bowel. I hope you can...

Easy-peasy spaghetti recipe

Hi everyone!☺ Who doesn't like pasta? I don't know any person who doesn't like it! I have to admit that pasta is such a versatile and delicious thing.

Today I'm going to show you a recipe for spaghetti with turkey ham, tomato sauce and Violife's Parmesan!

But people with dietary restrictions also can enjoy it! Now we can buy gluten free and low protein pasta in different shapes.  I've also tried low protein pasta in star shape and PKU rice from Aproten, which actually tastes like pasta too, and I really enjoyed it! ☺ M...

Raisin loaf with sweet crumbles

Hi everyone!☺️ Are there any raisin lovers? Or yeast cake lovers? I know that people are divided into raisin lovers and raisin haters! I like raisins, they are full of magnesium, potassium and boron. Did you know that raisins contain resveratrol, an antioxidant that protects cells against damage? They also contain fiber (3,7 g per 100 g), so IBD people must be careful of big amounts of them in their diet.  Today I want to share with you a recipe for delicious gluten and dairy free yeast loaf with raisins and sweet crumbles! Below is the PKU version!☺️ For those who must follow the low protein medical diet, 100 g of raisins contain: Kcal: 286 Fats: 0,5 g Carbs: 64,7 g Protein: 2,30 g Phe: 85 mg Values from  PKU Connect ☺️ You can use them as exchanges.☺️ I was inspired by the recipe for  Gluten Free Challah  from  The Gluten Free Mom ☺️ What you need: DOUGH ♡1 glass of gluten free mix for bread* (I used  Schar's mix B  ) ♡ 25 g of lactose free butter* ...

PKU friendly puff pastries

Hi everyone! A few weeks ago I've ordered a big box full of goods from  PKU Shop . In the package were cheeses from  Violife Foods , gluten free pasta, low protein rice from  Aproten Chicchi , low protein pasta stars from Aproten too, organic bechamel (rice based) sauce, cacao balls, coconut milk in powder and LOW PROTEIN GLUTEN FREE PUFF PASTRY!!!     I've never eaten gluten free puff pastry, I don't even remember the taste of the basic one, made using wheat and butter. To be honest, the composition is not the best, but once in a while it won't hurt, won't it? Mine puff pastry is from  Balviten , but once I saw gluten-free puff pastry from  Schar Gluten Free  and from  Genius Gluten Free , but they aren't available in my town:( The gluten free puff pastry, even when we know it's not always the healthiest option:), is a perfect solution when we have no time to prepare something tasty in a couple of minutes! You can fill it with your favo...

Cheesy mashed potatoes for ill tummy

Hi guys! Have you ever heard about potato diet? This is a special medical diet used in gastrointestinal diseases, chronic renal failure and  in low protein diet. The base of this diet are potatoes in a lot of forms - cooked, puree, chips, baked potatoes, jacket potatoes etc.  Potatoes are a great source of potassium and are really healthy! They are easily digestible and they can help in digestive problems. When we cool down the potatoes, they contain bigger amount of resistant starch, which isn't digested in the intestines and becomes a a kind of prebiotic - foodie for good bacteria inhabiting our guts. What about you? What is your favorite potatoe dish? Write in comments:) Mine is definitely potato pur é e! If you like potatoes and you need some extra calories, you will love my recipe for cheesy mashed potatoes, perfect for dinner, lunch or supper:) Look at this enormous bittern! It's really photogenic, isn't it? What you need: ♡peeled potatoes ♡ one tbsp of lactose-free b...

PKU friendly creamy coconut&tomato sauce

Hi guys! Today I have asked you a question on my page on Instagram about my today's dinner. I've made something nice - creamy pasta with tomato sauce and coconut cream. The connection of tomatoes and coconut cream may sounds weird, but I swear it is easy-peasy and extremely delicious. My idea has its roots in Marta Dymek 's blog called  JadÅ‚onomia . If we translate it into English, it will be Foodnomy:) Marta has created a soup made of fresh tomatoes and she has added a little bit of coconut milk to make the soup creamier and milder in taste. Check it for more inspirations - a lot of yummy plant based options for vegans and PKUers!  My sauce is a little bit sweet, really creamy and fits perfectly to any pasta, including low protein. Perfect when you are late or have no time to prepare a meal.  My family also love this sauce, even my dad (who is a traditionalist and he really likes meat) enjoys it:)  For myself, I've added chicken breast and I blended it into the sauc...

Summer crumpets with raspberries

Hello everyone! Today's morning I've brought some juicy raspberries from my garden. I  was wondering and wondering what yummy to eat can I make with them and suddenly, I thought about raspberry crumpets! The recipe is really easy and the crumpets are so fluffy and soft. I swear you will love them! I'm using   this  universal mix which I usually buy over the Internet or in Rossmann. For those on medical low protein diet (phenylketonuria, homocystinuria, maple syrup urine disease etc.): you can easily replace the flour I've used in this recipe to your suitable low protein flour and replace an egg with an egg substitute. Crumpets are really delicious, fluffy and they aren't very fatty:) They taste perfect with a little bit of powdered sugar and some extra raspberries! I know that using ready-to-use mixes isn't always the best option when we are talking about h e a l t h y gluten free diet. It's always better to use natural gluten free grains and seeds, for exa...
