Another short post this week! (I need to get out more…) Tilda have a range of single portion, pre-cooked pulses and rice sachets, which are great for a quick lunch for work. They only take a minute or so in the microwave and are nicely flavoured. There are several flavours, all of which are gluten … Continue reading
I was pleased to pick these Nairn’s black pepper crackers up from the supermarket. (Sainsbury’s, I think, although I couldn’t be 100% sure!)

I think the little sandwich thins are excellent as the bread to filling ratio is much better than an inevitably dry textured gluten free bread … Continue reading
