I have a crazy week ahead of me, but I'm really excited to get to the end of the week! I'm heading to Chicago for a business trip. A bit of exciting news for me is that I will be representing Bob's Red Mill at the Nourished Food Blogger Conference! You all know I love Bob's Red Mill, so I will be spreading the word on how great this company is!
I have been doing a little experimenting in the kitchen lately with a roll recipe I recently developed.
I've been working with a grouping of flours and techniques recently to achieve a better gluten and dairy free roll.
These are crunchy on the outside while being soft and doughy on the inside.
These worked perfectly to accompany our ham, cheese potato (not for me) and fresh green beans feast on Sunday!
My meal was an egg white omelet smothered in nutritional yeast, fresh green beans and a couple of rolls!
Snackage later for Tony was ham and rolls!
My tester loaf was small, but it turned out perfectly! A little dairy free butter smeared on warm bread is seriously heavenly! I need to try it as a real loaf now.
I took advantage of not having clients this morning and slept in a little. I'm trying to make sure I get a good amount of sleep these days. Knowing that the weekend is going to be a little on the crazier side, I'm trying to be smart and rest up throughout the week. So, coffee time, get the kids to school, eat some oatmeal, workout, shower, laundry, studying, pick kids up, cook, client meeting...time to get Monday going.
Ever been to Chicago? Suggestions on things to do or places to go?

ReplyDeleteoooh, I hope you post this soon, the look of that roll is incredible. butter on fresh warm bread? pretty much the best thing ever.
ReplyDeleteChicago... I have only been for a layover. Jason has been a lot, having been in several bands in college and Chicago is one place they would travel - I just asked him for recommendations? He said blues clubs. I asked which ones? He said "the ones that look scary. don't go into a 'big' blues club..." ;) there you have it!
CONGRATS! I love Bob. You should tell them you need a trip to the home office. :D
ya for having fun in the kitchen, we have had not much time to play in the kitchen lately :( but it ok, we know we will get back there.
ReplyDeleteand we love chicago, such a fun city. so much to do and see.
OMG, my mouth is watering looking at those rolls. Fresh baked bread is my kryptonite!
ReplyDeleteMy most favorite place in Chicago is Chicago Pizza Oven Grinder. They make the most awesome pizza pies! Just make sure you go early (and bring cash! - a lesson I learned the hard way). :)
Those rolls look absolutely FABULOUS!!
