Help From UK-Coeliac Yahoo Group

I belong to the UK-Coeliac Yahoo Group and when you need help, they will always give it.  I asked for some freezable casserole recipes and I got this long reply from Moodthy.

I do all sorts of casseroles, and wanted to say you can get low fat sausages! Just ask your butcher to make em up of 100% lean meat 🙂

An easy way to add fibre is to chuck some lentils in to any casserole, I have packets of puey lentils, red lentils and also soya beans (but these need soaking first, while lentils are easy to chuck in). Chickpeas and red kidney beans are also great thrown in (you can buy these canned or soak them first if using dry). I love chickpeas in curries and Moroccan style stuff.

Moroccan Chicken Casserole

You can substitute chicken breast for chicken thigh (lower in fat) and chuck some chickpeas in for more fibre. I use millet as a cous cous replacement.

Soya Bean and Aubergine Casserole

The soya beans could easy be substituted for another type.

Arabic Side Dish

This is an Arabic rice recipe that is rice, lentils and caramelised onion, it’s works great on the side of a casserole and it is the yummiest thing ever. Easy to sub brown rice for white, to get a bit more fibre in.
