Gluten free breakfast sausages
I’m trying to find some new breakfast ideas for my kids.They’ve really burnt out on Shelton’s and applegate farms sausages.We’ve even done Applegate Farms Hot Dogs for breakfast and my son isnow complaining. Cereals are almost impossible as most of the cerealshave a chance of peanut contamination. We do pancakes, muffins & corngrits occasionally but I try to rotate the grains and need morevariety.Has anyone tried the Wellshire breakfast sausages? I can’t buy themlocally and it seems from the website that they are only availableonline by the case. I’d hate to order a case and have my kids hatethem!Any feedback on Wellshire sausages or other ideas would be greatlyappreciated! (mamommy2001@…) Another online source that sellsWelshire sausage by the pack would be great as well. (I’ve asked alocal health food store to order some for me but they never have.)

Hi, I haven’t tried it yet but I saw homemade sausages on the ‘Inn Chef’ fromthe cooking chanel the other day. It looked relatively easy if you have a foodprocessor. They post their recipies on their web site. We would have to subfor the bread crumbs of course but that’s all. I was planning to look up asausage recipe in the Joy of Cooking it has lots of old fashioned recipies and Ijust convert them. (I sub corn flour for bread crumbs in meatballs & meatloaf,so that’s what I’m going to try. He put the mixture in a pastry bag and justsqueezed it out onto plastic wrap, rolled it up and tied it off with string intolinks, then boiled it right in the plastic and unroll after it has cooled a bit.They’re already cooked and you just brown them in the fry pan or freeze forfuture use.

Try non-traditional things for breakfast, like having lunch or dinnertype foods. I have been known to eat a steak for breakfast! Or how about atopped baked potato? Top it with any acceptable thing–sauces, veggies, homemadeGFCF chipped beef, soy sour cream–use your imagination! Or how about a”Kibbutz Breakfast”? I got this idea years ago (pre-GFCF) from Nikki and DavidGoldbeck’s “The Good Breakfast Book”, and I use the idea often, for breakfast ordinner.
Just clean out the refrigerator, and get all the odds and ends from theshelves in the kitchen–the last can of beets, the last three GF crackers in thebox, last night’s roast, a cooked chicken leg, hard cooked eggs, fruits about togo bad, veggies about to go bad–you name it. Lay it all out on the kitchencounter, and hand each kid a paper plate and let them at it! Uses up leftovers,is nutritious, is very easy, and you don’t need to care what they’re eating(like two grapes and a cracker!). My kids LOVE it when I do this!
I did this tonight, in a different form. We were out all day, and when wecame home, I did NOT want to make a “formal” family dinner. I cut up someleftover cold chicken, grabbed a handful of raw baby carrots, a handful oftortillachips, a few pieces of cut up melon, and a small tangerine for each kid. Dinnerwas served! Quick, easy, good use of leftovers, nutritious–what more can youask?

i was in your shoes about two weeks ago. we bought a case of the milditalian sausage to put on pizza. A big gamble since he didn’t eat much sausagebefore we went GFCF. the first bite he said he didn’t like it. well afterhearingthat ten times, each time with a seperate bite, he said mommy i don’t wantmy pizza but do we have anymore sausage. he ended up eating three links. hecan’t wait for the next pizza night or should i say sausage night
