Denny's has a wonderful Gluten Free Menu

I took my Daughter out for Breakfast on my Grandsons 1st day of Kindergarten. She looked up Gluten Free Breakfast Restaurants for me and found Denny's. I have never been to a Denny's before.
This video is just a quick look at the Gluten Free Menu options they have at Denny's and my Meal. I ordered the Santa Fe Skillet with an English Muffin. It was so delicious, I will definitely go back.

I very seldom go out to eat because of being Gluten Free. Its wonderful to see that more and more Restaurants are offering Gluten Free Options.

I went to the Denny's in N. Smithfield Rhode Island

Thanks for watching,
Brenda

Chia Flax Breakfast Pudding ~ Gluten Free, Low Carb, Dairy Free and Sugar Free

 I make this Chia Flax Pudding every Sunday evening for my Husband. It last all week. It is Gluten Free, Low Carb, Dairy Free and Sugar Free. I mix together a jar of different Nuts and Unsweetened Coconut.  If you are not Dairy Free you can use any type of Milk if you are not watching your sugar intake you can add some Honey or Maple Syrup to sweeten it as well as some Fruit.

Chia Flax Pudding
Gluten Free, Low Carb, Dairy Free and Sugar Free

In a bowl whisk together
¼ Cup Chia Seeds
¼ Cup Flaxseed Meal
1-1/4 Cups Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract

Whisk for 2-3 minutes
lets sit for 10 minutes
re-whisk for a few seconds
Cover the bowl and refrigerate over night.

Serve with
Your choice of nuts and unsweetened Coconut
I like to store a mixture of Nuts and Coconut in a Mason Jar so it can easily be sprinkled on in the Morning. You can also toast the Nuts and Coconut.


ENJOY!

Slice/Shred  ½ of a  Whole Cabbage if it is big or a whole Small Cabbage pull the pieces apart,, if there are any big piece cut them up

How to cook Kale

I used Fresh Kale from our Garden or buy a bunch at a Farm Stand or Produce department

Place the Kale in the sink running cold water over it to clean
Remove the Kale and dry on Towels

Cut the Stem off the end
Then using your knife cut into the Kale along the stem to remove
Stack a few pieces of Kale together and Roll up (Chiffonade)  Cut into desired size pieces
Or
You can hand pick off the leaves. Do what ever method you prefer.
Kale will shrink a lot when you cook it.
Heat up a large Skillet to Medium High Heat add EVOO
Minced Garlic,, cook for 1 minute
add Half of the Kale and toss around with Tongs
Add the rest of the Kale
along with Crushed Black Pepper and Salt to taste.
Continue tossing until the Kale is done.
Takes about 5 Minutes
Serve with Parmigiano-Reggiano Cheese

I did not show this in the video but we also like to serve our Kale with
Toasted Sesame Seeds. Use a small skillet add in Sesame Seeds and toss around until golden brown.
Sprinkle over the Kale after it has been cooked.


How to make Julienne Carrots

I used bagged Carrots
I did not peel them. I gave them a good scrubbing
I used the OXO Julienne Peeler
Slice down the Carrot with the peeler and you will get nice Julienne pieces
Using a Non-stick pan heat to Medium High Heat. Add a little bit of water and the Carrots
Cook for 4-5 minutes. If they start to stick add just a little more water.
Do not over cook. You do not want them mushy.
Add Butter and salt.


ENJOY!
