Day Seventeen - Elana's Pantry

Ok, sorry about the slacking on righting blogs. On the brighter side - WE ONLY HAVE FOUR MORE DAYS LEFT! 

Also, I was introduced recently to an amazing gluten free website called Elana's Pantry.  It is a great website to transition out of this diet and into a little less strict eating (allowing dairy and some sugar), and their are some AMAZING recipes.  I had this one tonight and I was blown away by how good it was!  :
