June 10, 2015 – Holly's Gluten Free Home

Worknight for me… Not for them. So, we have a play date & sleepover going on here. That’s cool. I’m tired… They appear to have had Red Bull during their camp refreshments… And they have decided to watch Jumanji, because that’s not too scary. Are you kidding me? I’m in the kitchen cooking and I’m creeped out! But I’ll be fine. One thing I know how to do is feed hungry kids… And I am surrounded by them. One 14 year old bottomless pit boy, 2 – 10 year old girls and 2 – 6 year old girls.. They are starting to circle… Darting in like sharks on shark week… Trying to grab a cookie… Or a croissant… Even an apple or a banana… One of the 6 year olds just licked a croissant so I couldn’t put it back… The childbeasts are starting to get restless… But, I’ve got this!
First!

Homemade Pizza!
This is not gluten free… Although it can be! If you need the recipe, message me or check out past blogs.

This is a well loved meal by playdate attendees and doesn’t dissapoint! slumber party … pizza party.. happy party.

Next… I’ve been dying to try gluten free rice balls! So, here it goes!!
By the way… 4 of these disappeared before even being fried… Yep.. That good….well and the sharkchildren… They are clearly ravenous. Its 640 pm.. The clock is ticking…. Anyway, I hope you ran, or swam or did orange theory today😊
Cook 1 cup of white arborio rice or sushi rice in your usual fashion but with a dash more water and a veggie bullion cube and 1 tsp olive oil – while that cooks…
Mix:
2 eggs
Salt and black pepper to taste
3 tsp parsley (I used dried)
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan
Put in the fridge to cool until the rice is done.
Mix the egg mixture with the rice… Stir like crazy or you will have egg chunks and this is Italian…. Go! Use those forearms!
go! go! go! stir fast so you end up with rice balls not chinese fried rice!

Ok. Put that in the freezer until cool!
Now! Make rice into balls and then roll in gluten free bread crumbs. Fry until golden in oil on medium high. Drain on paper towels.
