Most trips to the supermarket are to pickup a standard selection of products, so I love finding something new that I can actually eat – especially when its something you don’t expect to find. I have always loved bombay mix - the crunch and chilli kick. However now I can’t have gluten and most bombay mix has wheat in bombay mix has been off the menu.

That is until I found Cofresh Bombay mix in Asda last week.

Bombay Mix Ingredients:
- Puffed rice
- Vegetable Oil
- Gram Flour (Chickpea)
- Peanuts
- Spices
- Salt

I am so loving Cofresh bombay mix! Look out for a pack it in larger Asda stores and you can also order it online at Cofresh. All of Cofresh products are suitable for Vegetarians, some are suitable for Vegans and Gluten Free too, so worth checking out the full range of products.

Toasted Corn Tortillas

Toasted Corn Tortillas are a quick, tasty snack and a great homemade version of the popular nacho. I used Mountain Bread Corn Wraps, for my toasted corn tortillas and they work perfectly.

Toasted Corn Tortillas Ingredients: (makes 32 triangles)

2 x Corn Wraps
1 egg yolk
Savoury topping of your choice – I used sea salt. Seeds e.g. sesame, poppy, linseed, flaxseeds would work well.

Toasted Corn Tortillas Recipe:

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.

Cut the Corn Wraps into triangles. Spread a thin layer of egg yolk to each triangle. Sprinkle with your chosen topping.

Place on a baking tray at the top of the preheated oven for 3 minutes (watch them closely to avoid burning!).

Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

Enjoy as an afternoon snack or with a choice of tapas, dips or as an accompaniement to Dairy Free Guacamole and chilli.

Waltzing down the supermarket aisle with the huge selection of cereal bars on offer, I always have a root around to see what options are avaliable to me. No surprises to find that pretty much most of the time this is ZERO, as most cereals bars are ladened with dairy, sugar and gluten.

This can be a little disheartnening however alongside the tasty Fruitus bar this wheat free bar from Village Bakery is tasty tasty.

Rice malt syrup, oats, puffed rice, coconut, apple juice, cashew nuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, low sodium sea salt.
