Gluten-Free Foods: Bread Recipe with Pumpkin Seeds

Filed under: ,

Many people dismiss healthy eating as consisting solely of salads aka rabbit food. Even I remember a time when I ate only salads for an entire year thinking that was the only “healthy” food available. Boy did that ever backfire as I was nutritionally-deficient and hormonally-imbalanced, not to mention totally bored. Fast forward 10 years and one holistic nutrition degree later and I can tell you that while salads are most definitely part of a healthy diet, eating the same foods all the time denies not only your tastebuds, but your body of essential vitamins and minerals.

These days I am lucky to have friends who can not only cook, but who know how to cook delicious and healthy meals. Enter Candice, my neighbour and foodie extraordinaire. Candice and her boyfriend are so enamoured by food that she writes a blog (www.therealdishto.com) about all their Toronto restaurant adventures. Knowing my penchant for gluten-free recipes, Candice emailed recently to say she had a bread recipe that I just had to try. I must admit that I was at first hesitant because mastering the art of gluten-free bread can be a challenge (when I was a teenager my boyfriend’s dad had celiac disease and ate a bread that had the texture and weight of cement). The verdict: It was very moist and the most delicious gluten-free bread I’ve ever had.
