Making your own mayo is easy enough -- if you don't have a recipe, just ask and I'll tell you how. Just an egg, 3/4 - 1 cp oil (I use canola, but you can use all sorts), and (optional) a dash of vinegar or mustard.

My favourite lunch:

1/4 tsp. lemon juice
2 Tbsp. parsley, chopped
1/2 tsp. dill
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/8 tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. GF low-salt feta cheese, crumbled
3 Tbsp. GF Parmesan cheese, grated
2 egg whites
6 rice papers
GF nonstick cooking spray
Directions:
Squeeze zucchini dry, then pack into measuring cup to measure. Saute zucchini, onion, and garlic in oil in a pan that has been sprayed with GF nonstick spray. When lightly browned, stir in wine, lemon juice, and seasonings. Spoon mixture inot bowl to cool. When cool, stir in cheeses and egg whites. Soak rice paper in water 3 minutes or until softened. Lay one rice paper on cutting board; spray with GF nonstick spray. Fill with 1/6th of the filling mixture; roll, folding in sides to encase filling. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with GF nonstick spray. Spray tops of rolls. Bake at 375 degrees F for 15 minutes or until rice paper is crispy.

Take care!

Lexi, I made the mayo recipe that you posted but, since I cannot use vinegar or mustard, I added 1/2 tsp. of ground tumeric. Also added 1/2 tsp. salt. It tastes real good. I used only 3/4 c. of olive oil in mine. Waiting now to see if it solidifies a little so I can spread it more easily or if it will continue to be more liquid. I'm delighted to have something to put on my turkey sandwiches. Thanks for the recipe. Praying that you find something new for you to eat that you will thoroughly enjoy! Blessings!

IT should be "solidified" when you make it -- it doesn't gel later or anything . . . You put the egg in the blender on the very lowest speed you have, then drizzle in VERY SLOWLY the oil, a teaspoon at a time . . . (take the little round thing out of the cover, and hold a towel over it, and drizzle the oil under the towel into the blender -- does that make sense??).

Thanks for the information, Lexi. I'll try that next time. I finally did this in order to get a good consistency. I used one whole egg and one egg yolk with 1/2 cup of olive oil, salt, and sugar for the mayonnaise. For the mustard I put in the ground tumeric rather than the sugar. Both turned out very well. I've never made mayonnaise before so your method was new to me. I appreciate the input. Next on my list is making un-tomato ketchup. Got a recipe online this afternoon. (Can't have tomatoes, vinegar, onions, etc...) Am praying that it will be good for French fries! Blessings, Lexi and all!

Oh, I'm glad you got it to work out! When I make it with olive oil, I add some of my own homegrown fresh rosemary, and it's GREAT to dip fries into! Mmmmmm!

For french fries, sweet potatoes or the white ones, you can sprinkle Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning, it taste wonderful sprinkled on hot fries.
Lets see lunch today might be fried sweet potatoes!!!
Lunch yesterday was: grilled fresh pineapple, baked sweet potato, & steamed fresh green beans. |

THis sounds great!
One thing I do when making fries (I should probably look up my exact recipe and post it in Recipe section) is cut my potatoes into strips, toss them with a teaspoon or two of oil per potato, and also toss in some cumin, salt, and chili powder. THen bake on a cookie sheet at 400 for 30 minutes or so (depends on how thin or thick you nmake your fries), and stir/flip them halfway through cooking. THese are such good seasoned fries. And believe it or not, I like to dip them in honey.

I love apples and PB, PB and banana, and PB and bacon -- so this sounds like my cup of tea!
(Tonight for supper I had a rice cake, with PB and both bananas and applesauce on top. All I needed was the bacon!)
Thanks for posting it! |

Today in my kids' lunches, I packed ham and cheese tortilla rollups, go-gurt, apple slices (a little lemon juice so they don't turn brown) and quinoa cookies. I have got to start packing their lunches the night before. I am so scattered at 4:00 am when I am getting ready to go to work!

My children love putting tuna salad on tortilla chips. Sounds odd, but I tried it and it's great!

OK, folks. I think it's been a while since we updated this thread. Help us all get new ideas by posting what you had for lunch.
My kids current favorite is chebe'za in their lunch. I make a batch of chebe with no cheese and using almond milk for the regular milk. I divide it into 6 balls. Roll out each one into a circle. Par bake them for 10 minutes or so. Then I top them with Ragu pizza sauce (it's GF/CF) whatver lunchmeat or veggies we have in the fridge and shredded mozzarella (Fake mozz for my son since he's CF). Then bake again until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Cool and pack in lunches with baby carrots and potato chips on the side. They each get one 'za in their lunch, and tat leaves leftovers for after school snacks.
My lunches are usually leftovers from last night's dinner. I love baked potatoes with cheese and ham. On Friday I had Thai Kitchen spring onion soup with chopped up chicken from the previous night's dinner. Add a tangerine and some molasses cookies, and you have a lunch fit for a queen!

I'm so into the BLT's right now. I bake my bacon so it's not so greasy and kinda chewy (mmm) with lettuce and toms on GF bread. Sadly no more mayo (buh-by eggs!) but a little black olive tamponade is a nice sub.
