Dr. Tim Says....

Seared Grouper with Gazpacho Sauce. Amazing. Simple, fresh and delicious. In the past I would have had this with some bread to sop up the sauce, but had it with tortilla chips, and like almost all of this experience, it's been great to try something new.

One of the first places that I noticed this was with the sushi and not having soy sauce. It's seems unconventional but it's been really great doing things differently. Not having bread is one thing that everyone is so used to as part of their lives, but it doesn't really add that much to the meal.

I do miss bread. I would be lying if I said that I didn't, but not having it isn't the end of the world. Diagnosed with Celiac Disease, Part V

Featured Recipe

Mediterranean Tortilla

I love making egg dishes like frittatas and tortillas. ("Tortilla" is the Spanish word for "little cake" and in Spain tortillas are baked egg dishes like this one.) They are so quick and easy and make for a perfect quick evening dish. Fill them with veggies and you have a complete meal in a single pan.
