<h2 style="text-align: center;">
2 years on for me</h2>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rCO4ii0EBbw/VCoFCff6NMI/AAAAAAAABUE/8gHl5om0RA0/s1600/L%26L%2BAugust%2B2014.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="children 2014" border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rCO4ii0EBbw/VCoFCff6NMI/AAAAAAAABUE/8gHl5om0RA0/s1600/L%26L%2BAugust%2B2014.JPG" height="640" title="children 2014" width="426" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The twists and turns of healing just astonish me... I would never have thought we would have had such a dramatic turn around in our diets over the last 2 years. When I look back and read about where we started and then the progress just over a year ago, I am so excited to share with you how far we have all come...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Here are the previous posts to give you a history:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2012/12/our-story-to-healing.html"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2012/12/our-story-to-healing.html</span></a><br />
<a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2013/01/childrens-journey.html"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2013/01/childrens-journey.html</span></a><br />
<a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2013/08/update-childrens-healing-journey-six.html"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2013/08/update-childrens-healing-journey-six.html</span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">My children grew up eating a very small selection of foods... initially just rice and lamb, then they were able to tolerate celery, choko, chicken, potato. We used Nuttelex and Sunflower oil for cooking. Luckily so many things can be made using those ingredients and you can find all the recipes in my first couple of <a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/p/shop.html" target="_blank">books</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">When we started biomed we were able to add in some moderate salicylates - cucumber and carrot mainly. But we got stuck, I could never increase from one quantity a day... any more and they reacted. So I decided to try adding in small amounts of healing foods (which is discussed in detail in the above posts). The progress was exciting but again we got stuck...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">So we decided to try <a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2013/09/homeopathy.html" target="_blank">homeopathy</a>. This was not a quick fix, it has been challenging but we have seen amazing healing. I think this has been the key for us.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I continued trying to increase the children's tolerance to foods and we began seeing success! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I wanted to keep adding more healing foods:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
BROTH</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We cooked everything in broth... to cook rice pasta, I would add a cup of broth to the cooking water; to make savoury mince, I would add broth instead of water; to make sushi rice I would add a cup of broth to the cooking water</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
FATS - GHEE and COCONUT OIL and TALLOW</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We continued to cook all meat in ghee. Tallow was added and we now cook all roast veg in that. Coconut oil is used extensively in baking.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
BAKING - COCONUT FLOUR and NUTS</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Slowly the kids were introduced to cookies and cakes baked with nut flours and coconut flour. The cookies were very well received by all. My girls loved the cakes, but my son was very attached to his egg free rice based cupcakes. I was really pleased when he eventually (after many many efforts of sampling) he declared he liked them and refused to eat the rice based baking... yay!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
FERMENTS and KEFIR</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We don't use Kefir and fermented drinks often anymore, but we do eat sauerkraut and other fermented vegetables. My girls and I enjoy them very much, my little man not so much... one day he will join in :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
SALICYLATES and AMINES</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">They tolerate everything now... slow cooked meats, all manner of fruit and vegetables. They even eat tomato several times a week... Very exciting!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
FODMAPS</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We had major issues with all the groups of FODMAPS. So these were the last foods to try. At first I added leeks to our broth when cooking... then when that was tolerated, I added them to meals where broth was used, eg casserole, soup, bolognaise. Then I started adding in Brussels sprouts to meat balls, casseroles, bolognaise. Now I add lentils to dishes as well. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">With fruits, we started with low fodmap ones and now have progressed to include the others too. They are so excited that this month we introduced apple with success. Started with a tiny piece, now they have a whole one each day. (Last time we challenged apple, we landed in hospital for a week)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
TIMING</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Healing started slowly but about a year in, it jumped into top gear and progress was really fast. In the early days we would have a tiny portion once a week, then every three days, then every second day, then daily. Once ok, we would do another food. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
WHAT DO WE AVOID NOW</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We are coeliacs, so we avoid all gluten. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We choose to avoid soy and corn. I have challenged corn a couple of times for the children and it has always been a very big fail.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We avoid cane sugar - we use coconut sugar and rice syrup as sweeteners.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We minimise grains but still enjoy them every so often. They are no longer an every day food. I use buckwheat and quinoa often.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We avoid beef - still causes bleeding bowels.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h2>
So what does our menu plan look like now:</h2>

<h2>
Variations:</h2>
<br />
Use 2t cinnamon instead of the ginger for a cinnamon cookie (my favourite!)<br />
Use 2t vanilla instead of the ginger for a plain cookie<br />
Omit the ginger and use one of the above variations and add half a block of chopped chocolate to the mix for a choc chip cookie (we use <a href="https://lovingearth.net/products/125/creamy-coconut-mylk-chocolate-raw-organic" target="_blank">Loving Earth Creamy Mylk Chocolate</a>)<br />

<h2>
For the chocolate cake:</h2>
<br />
<h3>
Ingredients:</h3>
<span style="color: #38761d;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">5 eggs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">130g honey or rice malt syrup</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">70g coconut oil</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">3T coconut flour</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">2T raw cacao</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">1/2t bicarb soda</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h3>
Method:</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Line a 20 cm cake tin with baking paper and grease well</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Put all ingredients into your Thermomix bowl and combine 20 sec speed 5</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Do not be alarmed that this is indeed a very runny batter... if it was normal gluten free flour it would never work, but coconut flour absorbs A LOT of liquid, so it will all be ok when baked... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Pour into cake tin</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Bake for 30 mins 180 degrees celcius until puffed and when pressed gently in the centre, springs back</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Remove from the tin carefully and cool on rack</span><br />
<br />
<br />
Now you are ready to ice<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>
To make the Frosting:</h2>
<br />
<h3>
Ingredients:</h3>
<br />
80g palm shortening (I use this organic brand from <a href="http://au.iherb.com/spectrum-naturals-organic-all-vegetable-shortening-24-oz-680-g/53708" target="_blank">iHerb</a>)<br />
55g ghee<br />
200g honey or rice malt syrup<br />
2t vanilla extract<br />
2T coconut flour<br />
2T raw cacao<br />
<br />
Add all ingredients to Thermomix bowl, mix 30 seconds speed 6<br />
Scrape down and repeat until smooth<br />
<br />
It will be soft and creamy like buttercream frosting and will be firm once in the fridge.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>
Icing the cake:</h2>
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
When the cake is completely cold, using a serrated knife, cut the cake in half... I do this by turning the cake slowly and cutting just slightly into it until all the cake has a small cut around it. Then move your knife through the cake and complete the cut through the centre. This helps get two even halves. <br />
<br />
<em>If you find this too difficult, you could make two cakes as per recipe above and ice them together. I do this when I need a bigger taller cake.</em><br />

What do you get someone who has everything in the kitchen... </h2>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Something for the Thermomix of course! And what could be better than a gorgeous decal... perfect for those of us who love everything to match</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-73hmQDljviM/Uv61B2bQGnI/AAAAAAAABMc/CRApehLmdCM/s1600/IMG_6517.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="thermostyle decal my tmx red dot" border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-73hmQDljviM/Uv61B2bQGnI/AAAAAAAABMc/CRApehLmdCM/s1600/IMG_6517.JPG" height="480" title="thermostyle decal my tmx red dot" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<h3>
What is a Thermostyle Decal?</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">They are quality removable vinyl adhesives that stick to your Thermomix, allowing you to customise your Thermomix to suit your individual style.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">They are designed and made right here in Australia by Felicia McQueen. Her motto "Australian made just makes sense. It's the ethical way to shop!" I totally agree and that is why I get all my books printed in Australia too. Always good to support our local businesses.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Felicia is a dedicated mum who I had the pleasure of meeting through the Failsafe Facebook groups. She is on a mission, like many of us, to heal her family.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The decals are her creation and are a lovely way to customise your Thermomix.... really make it your own. Not only are they gorgeous, but they protect the surface of your machine from light scratches. You can even get a decal for the side which has all the shortcuts! How handy is that!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Check out the extensive designs here.... </span><a href="http://www.thermostyle.com.au/"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">www.thermostyle.com.au</span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><em>You can customise them with your own photos too!</em></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I am loving my decal... I have all red accessories in my kitchen so this has been a perfect way to match my Thermomix to my style! It is so easy to wipe over the surface of the machine.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Grab one for yourself, your partner, your mum, your friend now! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><em>(Perfect gift for mothers day...hint hint)</em></span><br />

<h3>
Method</h3>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Blitz the coconut sugar in Thermomix until fine, 130 seconds, speed 10</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Add remaining ingredients and combine, 30 seconds speed 4</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Scrape down well and repeat</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The mix will not come together in a ball, but look like moist bread crumbs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">(do not be tempted to add more moisture)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Tip out into a bowl and using your hands bring the dough together into a ball</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Carefully press small tsp size balls into discs using the palm of your hands</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">(The mix will fall apart if you try to roll into balls in your hands)</span><br />

</span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">A double quantity fits in the Thermomix bowl easily</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">If you prefer to replace the Rice Syrup with an alternative sweetener, use a liquid like maple syrup or honey</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<h3>
</h3>
<h3>
Too Crunchy?</h3>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">If you would like a less crunchy cookie, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">use ghee instead of coconut oil - you can use all ghee or half ghee/half coconut oil</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">use baking powder instead of bicarb soda</span><br />
<h2>
</h2>
<h2>
Other uses:</h2>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The mix would make a great crumble topping for fruit or a base for cheesecake or <a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2013/02/chocolate-avocado-mousse.html" target="_blank">chocolate tart</a> or sandwich between <a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/2013/07/marshmallow-refined-sugar-free.html" target="_blank">marshmallow</a></span><br />

Amazing easy to scoop straight from the freezer</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lvLAf71ZDMo/UKg9EVwA6UI/AAAAAAAAAbI/LjPBAD40RKQ/s1600/IMG_2362.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="ice cream" border="0" height="426" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lvLAf71ZDMo/UKg9EVwA6UI/AAAAAAAAAbI/LjPBAD40RKQ/s640/IMG_2362.JPG" title="ice cream" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">This ice cream is delicious and will scoop straight from the freezer... it can be flavoured too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The recipe can be found in my <a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/p/shop.html" target="_blank">cookbooks</a> (check the <a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/p/shop.html" target="_blank">Index</a> to see which book suits your family best). It is very simple, based on rice milk. It is refined sugar free, using rice malt syrup. You can also use maple syrup. If you don't tolerate rice, try it with quinoa milk, nut milk etc.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I usually mix mine in the Thermomix and then churn in an ice cream machine. My ice cream machine broke (just in time for summer!) and so I had to go back to the old way... mix, then leave in the freezer in a metal bowl for a few hours to set... then whip with a spoon and put in Tupperware.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The problem being that although this is very easy simple way to do it, and the ice cream still tastes amazing... it is not as light and fluffy as a churned ice cream. I thought I would see if the Thermomix could whip it up so it was lighter like it was when made in the ice cream machine. Happy to say, indeed it can, and in only 15 seconds! NICE!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">So for those of you using a Thermomix and not wanting to get another gadget... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Follow the method as per the recipe book... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Freeze in a metal bowl for a few hours (takes 4 hours in mine to set)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">then</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Pop the frozen mass into your Thermomix bowl</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Whip 15 seconds, speed 6</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">It will be light and fluffy, just perfect! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Place in it's usual Tupperware container in the freezer to complete setting (another 2 hours)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">If you want to eat it straight away, it will be soft serve consistency.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h2>
Want to make ice blocks?</h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Once whipped, scoop the ice cream into moulds, insert the sticks and freeze until set overnight... remove and wrap in small plastic bags and store in the freezer.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<h2>
Flavouring</h2>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Coffee</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">This is delicious with a tablespoon of instant coffee added when initially mixing (decaf for failsafers)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Fruit Ripple</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">When you have whipped in Thermomix, place in it's container, then stir gently through 1 tablespoon of fruit jam, use a palette knife to stir so that you see swirls of colour (pear or choko jam for failsafers)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Caramel Crunch</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Once whipped, place in it's container and stir through some chopped up honeycomb (available from <a href="http://www.allergytrain.com.au/Store.aspx" target="_blank">Allergy Train</a>) and <a href="http://quirkycooking.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/dairy-free-condensed-milk-dulce-de-leche.html" target="_blank">Caramel Sauce</a> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Chocolate </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Add 1 tablespoon of cocoa, raw cacao or carob to the mix initially</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><em>Want to take ice cream to the next level and make it part of your healing foods... Make some rice milk kefir (which is a fermented drink full of probiotics), simply replace the rice milk in the recipe for the rice milk kefir... Gives the icecream a lovely tang! For the recipe see the <a href="http://www.kerstenskitchen.com.au/p/shop.html" target="_blank">Failsafe to Healing Workbook</a></em></span><br />
