This week is Coeliac Awareness Week in Australia.  Four years ago we knew nothing about coeliac disease, and we never imagined that two of our children would be diagnosed with it a short time later.  It has changed our life, the way we cook, eat, live!  You can read about our coeliac adventure on the page:  Coeliac Disease and Us.

If you are not sure what coeliac disease is, or think that you may have it, head over to Coeliac Australia’s awareness campaign website.

To help promote coeliac awareness we thought we would share with you a gluten free recipe that everyone loves at our place.  It is temaki sushi, or ‘hand rolled’ sushi.  You don’t have to be an expert cook to make them, and everyone can get involved too!

For more simple and gluten free recipes, some of which we cook every week, head over to our Gluten Free Recipes page.

We also have lots of tips for living with coeliac disease too!

Happy Coeliac Awareness Week!

How has your week started off? Have you been having fun on the weekends?  We have been sharing a little on our Facebook page about what cheap fun we have been getting up to, and we would love to hear from you too!  We had kids in the kitchen on the weekend, did you?

Speaking of kitchens, do you get creative in the kitchen?  Janelle loves to create with all sorts of materials, and sometimes that process happens in the kitchen, with food of course!  Every now and then she comes up with a great recipe idea, and one of her favourite main meals that she created is the Gluten Free Bacon and Asparagus Stir Fry.  It is quick, easy and tasty, and if you don’t like asparagus, swap it for broccoli!  By omitting the parmesan cheese it will be dairy free too!

One of the kids’ favourite meals at home is our Gluten Free Buffet.  It is great for a gathering of friends or a large family and if you don’t need to cater for gluten free or other dietary requirements, then the sky is the limit… almost! You can add anything you like to this delicious selection of food and you can cater to individual tastes or needs.

So head over to our Recipes page to find more delicious gluten free recipes and meal ideas, and find us on Facebook and let us know what creative things you’ve been up to!

A lot has been happening over the past week or two at Imagine. Make. Believe. Some of them you will see in our recent posts, like our story about Coeliac Disease. Others you may have stumbled across while you’ve been visiting us here or at our Facebook page.

So here is the latest!

• We have added a new Tea Towel Apron Gallery to our Gallery page, so if you make a Tea Towel Apron from our pattern that we shared with you last Friday, you can upload a photo to our gallery so we can all see!

• We have also added a spot to sign up for our new weekly newsletter which you can see in the sidebar on the right, so if you want to get our news, updates and special offers via email, don’t forget to fill out your details.

• We have just finished adding two more gluten free and dairy free recipes to our Gluten Free recipe page.

We have lots more coming up in the next few weeks, but this week we will be talking about stranded cotton or thread, and on Friday we will be sharing a fun, Father’s Day gift idea for the kids to make. Yes… Father’s day in Australia and New Zealand is now less than two weeks away! It’s quick, easy and cheap – it won’t even cost a dollar to make!

Hope you have a fun, creative week!
