Good morning! Happy Monday to you! I hope your weekend was a good one! And that you got some extra rest because of the time change!
I had play practice for six hours on Saturday… Had I told you all that I am in another play? Well, I am. And this time I have many, many, many lines to memorize! The last time I was in a play, I didn’t audition and ended up agreeing to be three small part characters for Anne of Green Gables. It was so much fun!
This time, *things* are a little different for me. Personally, there is much going on at work, there is much going on relationally, there is much going on with opportunities to speak and share, and there is much going on – you get the picture, right? It’s a crazy busy season and I found myself trying out for A Candle in The Window. And surprise of all surprises, I got the part I tried out for, a lady named, Trudy. I wasn’t expecting to get the part… It is the part of an older sister and I don’t like much about her character now that I feel like I know Trudy. Oh my, I digress.
Back to Trim Healthy Mama. This week I tried a recipe from the new Trim Healthy Table cookbook in the Breads, Wraps, Biscuits and Loaves chapter. The recipe for Cheesy Bread Sticks or Pizza Crust is on page 252 and is categorized as an S (satisfying) meal. It is a NSI – No Special Ingredients recipe.
I have made other gluten free bread sticks and pizza crust. This one was good. Hands down, I believe it is the quickest prep one that I’ve ever done. Most GF crusts call for cauliflower and this one does; but it gives the option to use frozen cauliflower – what a convenient form, right? Well, it is actually quite amazing at how you use the frozen vegetable in the recipe and that it turned out good.
I made the recipe as bread sticks and served it with sugar free sauce. The Salesman was not really thrilled with them. I have several more to still in the refrigerator. I don’t think I am going to make these again unless I am in a big hurry. But who wants to sacrifice taste for convenience? Not me.
They do look delicious though!
Enjoy!
