My Weekly Meal Plan with Gluten Free Meal Ideas

Autumn time here in Melbourne town. Which means it’s March. Which means it’s Easter next month. Crazy!

Weekly Menu Plan

Monday – Pumpkin Soup and Toasted Gluten Free Sandwiches  - school meeting tonight so early and simple dinner required

Tuesday –  Chicken Noodle Nests – a request from Little Man – I’ll use rice noodles instead of hokkien noodles for me though (as well as just vegies) to make it gluten free

Wednesday – Taco’s – request from Tiniest Man (he bought the shells out to me when I was cooking dinner tonight, very cute)

ThursdayRachael Ray’s Vegetable Curry – ensure stock, mango chutney and curry paste are gluten free and son’t serve with naan bread

FridayZucchini and Pasta Slice - this is a lunch idea from Planning with Kids but I am so making this a dinner by adding gluten free garlic bread and a salad. I am using gluten free pasta in the slice to make it gluten free.

SaturdayGluten Free Vegetarian Bean Burgers

Sunday – Simple Supper Night

Gluten Free Expos/Shows Around Australia 2012

I love a good gluten free expo. I have ever only gone to Melbourne ones but from what I hear, the other ones around Australia are just as good.

This year however, things have changed a little. Here is a list of the expos as they stand at the moment.

Brisbane

The Gluten Free Food Expo – Friday (evening only) 11th May 2012 – Saturday 12th May 2012 at the The Commerce Buildings RNA Showgrounds Brisbane. $10 per adult, concessions available

Good Food and Wine Show (yes the former Irresistible Gluten Free Show is now part of this show) – 9th – 11th November 2012 at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre

Sydney

Good Food and Wine Show – 22nd – 24th June 2012 at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre

Gluten Free Expo Victoria-Tasmania –  Saturday 15th September 2012 at the Caulfield Racecourse Melbourne, $10 per adult (um, one day only and it costs to get in? Sydney is free and has 1 1/2 days?)

  • 1 tablespoon grated cheese
  • 1 teaspoon seeded mustard
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Method

  • Mix gluten free flour, paprika and oregano together.
  • Pat the fish dry with paper towel, coat in seasoned flour mixture.
  • Mix eggs, salt, pepper, cheese, mustard and parsley in a bowl.
  • Dip fillets in the mixture.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large fry pan on medium high, once butter is melted add fish to pan.
  • Cook 8-10 minutes, or until tender, cooked through and golden on both sides.
  • Remove fish from pan and drain on paper towel.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Woolworths Gluten Free Specials ending 31st January 2012

Last week I shared some great gluten free specials that Woolworths had. Since I have come across this weeks catalogue and there are a few more gluten free specials, albiet not as good as last weeks, but nonetheless I thought I would share them with you as any special is a good special right?

and as far as I know these are all located in the Health Food aisle.

Happy Shopping!

PS I was not paid by anyone for this post, I am simply sharing information to my fellow gluten free folk.
