Grocery Shopping RollerCoaster
So I found myself alone and with an hour to blow tonight. What better way to spend it than checking out a new Superstore location in the city and see what new hopes it carries. BLINK BLINK. Ya… well. Note to self. Do so first thing in the morning after a good cup of coffee. Those kind of excursions require either rum or some serious uppers!
Then.. like a gold ray of sunshine in the middle of a thunder storm… I stepped into THE AISLE.
The Aisle is the specialty foods section I guess. All Organic and such. I must say I am still annoyed with the Soy Cheese manfacturers ( see soap box entitled CASEINS!) but at least there were all the ones I had seen to date! Including the casein free one’s I had recently purchased. There were several of the decedent soy icecreams.. including the chocolate flake peanut butter one! MMMMMM and not only the CeliMixes.. but also the Kinnikinnak line in the freezer and on the shelves. Also another brand of …errr can’t remember the name.. will add it later.
Egg free ” mayo”.. and lots of other items redeamed my trip. Well worth it. NOW to start actually price checking! Off to eat kabobs and lettuce wraps .. with Praline Soy-ice cream for dessert.. maybe with whipped cream and melted Chocolate chips. ( milk free of course).
Hey! I’ve earned it 
Supplies local businesses like SAFEWAY!
They have been making Gluten Free And Casein Free Foods in our dedicated facility since 1991, generating its first sales in September of 1991 at a Farmer?s Market in Edmonton.
In June of 1997, new retail outlet of 2500 sq. ft along with 8000 sq. ft of production space and 2500 sq. ft. for administrative offices was established in the present location. January of 2001 saw an expansion of an additional 5000 sq. ft. to handle the demand and process needs of the new ALTA GFCF line of products. In the space of 10 years, the company has grown from a small home-based operation to one that can now meet the demands of a growing North American market.

EDIT: Careful! Very few EGG FREE options!
Meat Pockets – Taco Attempt #1
The new foods are hard enough on the budget that I also recognise the need for making left over’s palletable. It was the ” left over’s creation” night yesterday. Observant people would have noticed that my Apple Pie Crust recipie had the dough divided into 3 but we only used 2. Ahh HUH!..
1/3 of the Attempt #1 Crust. Rolled thin.
Left over seasoned hamburger. Browned.
Thin Sliced “Vegan Cheddar Cheese Flavored Soy”
Salsa
The goal was to make individual “pockets”. The most efficient way of doing so I found was to put the incredients in the middle of a long rectangle and then fold the two ends over to the middle and press the edges sealed.
Bake at 350′ for 15 min.
Glaze with margarine when out of the oven.
I sealed and put them in the fridge when they were cold and we Microwaved them for lunch today.
Roarke enjoyed them! BUT they were filling! Keep them SMALL. make the crust thinner… Brother said they tasted like heavy taco’s and got full half way through. Not because he didn’t like them.. jsut because they were filling. As I said… keep them small!
White Sauce – Attempt #1
My mom and my brother both groan about the loss of their Alfredo sauces. Being big pasta lovers, this new diet has taken a huge chunk of foods into the ” not so convenient to get” catagory. My Mission? To make a rockin white sauce.

The sauce was not bad. It tasted fine, thickened lovely… the best we could compare it to was A No-Name SideKicks mix. It was ok.. but needs tweeking. Tommorrow Night’s Mission?
Fettucine Alfredo. Changes we are projecting? Double margarine and garlic, sauteing the garlic a bit more and picking up fresh parsley to add.
