<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Gluten free pizzas currently only seem to come in margarita or pepperoni (not complaining, we're lucky to have them at all!) however, my favorite was also ham and pineapple, so why not make one yourself (well decorate one yourself that is!)</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Buy a gluten free pizza base and top with your favourite ingredients, couldnt be easier! Oh and add some DS gluten free share and tear (or in my case, don't share!) garlic bread while you're at it....</div>

A lovely family run thai restaurant near the station with the BEST authentic thai food.

Absolutely scrumptious food.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">I came across this website recently -<a href="http://www.simply-free.co.uk/" target="_blank">www.simply-free.co.uk</a> - which sells only gluten free products, with free delivery straight to your door when you spend over £40 if you live in England. A great excuse to stock up on all those products that seem to disappear so fast or just simply don't seem to exist within your supermarkets, meaning 10 trips to 10 supermarkets just to try and find some gluten free bread!!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">

<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I've tried Mrs Crimbles, DS (Dietary Specialists) and many other cake mixes but I have found Glebe Farm's Chocolate Cake Mix to be the best by far for making Choc Muffins.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The best bit... that crunchy bit on top that you always get on normal muffins but never seem to achieve on gluten free muffins. Delicious!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"> </span></h2>
<h2>
<span style="font-size: small;">Why compromise?</span></h2>
<span style="font-size: small;">Just because you’re eating gluten free bakery products we don’t think
you should have to forgo the delicious taste and texture of fresh, well
baked bread.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">That’s why we have developed the Yes! You Can range – gluten, wheat and dairy free, but tasting just the way bread should!</span><br />
<br />
<div class="post" id="post-3825">
<h1 class="sifrtitle sIFR-replaced">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span class="sIFR-alternate" id="sIFR_replacement_0_alternate">Our gluten free story</span></span></h1>
<div class="entry">
<span style="font-size: small;">Yes! You Can is a brand built around an ethos of ‘no compromise’ –
we will always aim to deliver products that taste great while at the
same time being gluten free. Although the Yes! You Can brand is new,
gluten free baking is not new to us.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">We have a dedicated, state of the art, gluten free bakery in
Hawarden, near Chester, and here they’ve been baking gluten free
products for over 12 years – originally inspired by a member of the
owners’ family being diagnosed with Coeliac disease.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Our Yes! You Can loaves were in product development for 2 years – until we got the recipe just right!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">We’re always working on new product ideas, and with 125 years of
baking expertise from Roberts Bakery we’re pretty confident that we know
what great tastes like. Watch this space for more developments from
Yes! You Can.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
The only gluten free loaf I have come across so far with normal sized slices (almost!) which is a joy in itself, but in addition the top didnt fall off and the slice remained in tact even when I made eggy bread, finally!!</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Also the most normal tasting and least dry of all gluten free loaves, so well done Roberts Bakery!! </div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">

AND, less calories, fat and sugars per slice than Genius!!</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Having just got back from a week in Javea in Spain I thought I'd share my gluten free findings with you all.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Already aware of the numerous gluten free options available in Madrid (including the best ever gluten free pizzas and gorgeous bread at Da Niccola), I thought I'd check out what the supermarkets were offering us in the South East of Spain.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I came back with some yummy bread and cake. The bread comes in tiny squares and is much sweeter than the bread available to us here - it is more like brioche. This makes it much less dry and easier to eat, and is also much nicer to eat without toasting that all the bread available in our supermarkets. Yummy dipped in oil (as I was given in a restaurant) or toasted (the butter soaks in to the bread mmm).</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ASFuypp3iMk/T98RkV3Sl8I/AAAAAAAAAGw/zArXeFcSRhA/s1600/SAM_0941.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ASFuypp3iMk/T98RkV3Sl8I/AAAAAAAAAGw/zArXeFcSRhA/s320/SAM_0941.JPG" width="320" /></a></span></div>

<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The cake is plum and chocolate cake, also very moist and easy to eat.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; font-size: small;">Also, literally everything has it marked on the packet if it's gluten free (fruit, yoghurts you name it!) 'Sin Gluten' - if it doesnt say it on the front then it's not gluten free. Simple!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">This was my scrumptious gluten free... yes GLUTEN FREE Pollo al Rosmarino pizza at Zizzi.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">After hearing they were trialing gf pizza bases there was no way I was missing out on this one!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">So I trekked to the Notting Hill branch to try it out, and it was well worth the trek!!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">If you're going to be extremely picky and fussy then yes it was thin, yes it was maybe a tiiiiiny bit soft but come on it's gluten free pizza.... in a chain restaurant (and the outside was nice and crunchy and the toppings were lush).... Exciting stuff I think and I LOVED IT!!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>

The best gluten free related news I've heard since finding out Zizzi did gluten free pasta (still can't get enough of their carbonara!!), Zizzi are trialing gluten free pizza bases in 5 restaurants (the ones they get the most gluten free custom: Notting Hill and Earls Court, London; Bluewater, Kent; Farnham, Surrey and Grey Street, Newcastle.</div>

<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">This gets a massive thumbs up from me - how I've missed dipping a naan into a good curry - curries arent the same without a naan!

<span style="font-size: small;">The White Horse in Ramsden Heath nr Billericay, Essex is another restaurant find with a pretty decent gluten free menu.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It's basically just a selection off the main menu of things we can eat so often things are missing but it definately helps out! And the food is yummy. Shame about the lack of gluten free desserts though!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">

<span style="font-size: small;">I found a treat of a tea room style cafe in Maldon, Essex called Truly Scrumptious.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Here I enjoyed a huge piece of gluten free carrot cake.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">They also do gluten free bread and tea cakes and at least one gluten free cake a day (and not forgetting the vast selection of jacket potatoes and other things on the menu we are able to enjoy.)</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Teapots and teacups are everywhere in this oldy worldy style cafe and there is even a teapot/ teacup/ cakestand selection for sale in the wonky, creaky old room upstairs - it's a bit like a jumble sale of china!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Full of character this is a lovely little place to enjoy a gluten free treat. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Coeliac disease is not an allergy or intolerance but an auto immune
disease, where the body's immune system damages the lining of the small
intestine when foods containing gluten are eaten. Coeliac Disease
affects around 1 in 10 people in the UK and although there is no cure, a
gluten free diet can help to manage symptoms.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Rather than have a special diet section in store, we’re making it
easy for our customers to identify gluten free foods by putting a gluten
free logo on the front of pack. Look out for the many new products
we’ve recently added, including gluten free crumbed chicken, fish cakes,
crisp bakes, soups, sausages and burgers. Products that carry this logo
have all been tested to ensure levels of gluten do not exceed 20ppm.</span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: small;">Gluten Free Ordering</span></b></h3>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">You can now choose from a selection of your favourite M&S Made
Without Wheat products online and simply collect from your nearest
M&S store (not including petrol stations and some smaller Simply
Foods stores). Chose from a luxury fruit cake, crumpets, seeded loaf or
even chocolate and cherry cake. To browse the range, please click <a href="http://www.marksandspencer.com/Food-to-Order-Food-Wine/b/72525031?ie=UTF8&intid=gnav_food-amp-wine_food-to-order" target="_blank" title="nearest stocking store">here</a>.</span></div>
<h3 style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; font-weight: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Product lists</span></b></h3>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">We also provide lists of our foods that don’t contain gluten to help
our customers find food that’s suitable for their diet. These lists are
updated monthly and can be downloaded from our <a href="http://health.marksandspencer.com/your-diet-needs/allergies-and-intolerances/how-we-can-help" target="_blank">Allergies and Intolerance section</a>.</span></div>
<h3 style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; font-weight: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Allergy Information Box</span></b></h3>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">We use the allergy information box on the back of pack to indicate
whether a product or its ingredients contains gluten. This makes
deciding whether a food is suitable for your diet easier as you don't
have to read through the ingredients list.</span></div>
<h3 style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; font-weight: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">M&S Cafes</span></b></h3>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">If you are visiting our M&S cafes and are avoiding gluten, you
can chose from a selection of gluten free options including soup with
gluten free roll, gluten free muffin or gluten free brownie. Our M&S
staff can also provide more information about any of the food served in
our cafes.</span></div>
<h3 style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; font-weight: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Ask the Nutritionist</span></b></h3>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Do you have any queries about a gluten free diet or our products?

<span style="font-size: small;">During an amazing stay here we ate in their restaurant and enjoyed a stunning top class meal.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">They could easily tell me what I could and couldnt have and there were about 4 delicious desserts I could indulge in!!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">For main I had - <span style="color: black;">Monkshill Farm fruit-fed pork, buttered greens, apple & five spice puree, sarladaise potatoes with prune, apple cider jus</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">(No photo, I was too busy enjoying it to remember to take a photo - sorry!) </span></span></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">For dessert - Elderflower creme brulee with strawberry parfait and strawberry jelly and basil oil strawberry coulis</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"> Another of the delicious desserts, also gluten free - Vanilla pannacotta with rhubarb, burnt orange puree, orange powder and rhubard jelly.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">WOW!!!!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">At 34.95 for 2 courses it's not the cheapest, but well worth it for a special occasion - my mouth is watering now just thinking about it! </span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">P.s I highly recommend a visit to the hotel, a peaceful retreat, the staff couldnt have been friendlier, everything was perfect! And a Crystal Massage by Mary is an absolute must, an hour of pure bliss!!!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">We ate in here yesterday for lunch where I enjoyed a gluten free brie, bacon and sweet onion chutney pitta, which was delicious!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">They're decor is funky and different and there is a fun and friendly vibe and the owner is coeliac so understands the importance of an easy eating experience for us gluten free-ers. </span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">They offer white and brown gluten free bread and gluten free pittas. </span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo as it was so good I ate it all as soon as it was put infront of me!!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">These are my new favourite snack, especially for work, and I love the packaging too! </span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I
can personally recommend the Gingerbread, Cashew Cookie and Pecan Pie,
all suitable for coeliacs and incredibly healthy!! They are brilliant
when you need that little boost and want to reach for a biscuit or
chocolate! I keep thinking ooh they're a bit expensive (75p for a bar or £2.29 for 4) but then how much is a chocolate bar nowadays! I'm not one for swapping chocolate for a healthy snack bar, but I've become quite addicted to these!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
</div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"> The Griffin Pub in Danbury, Chelmsford, Essex caters for gluten free-ers well with gluten free bread (not your usual dry tasteless stuff, this is homebaked goodness!! And dipped in olive oil and vinegar.... heaven!!!), pizzas, burgers with buns and desserts. The best thing is they don't make you feel like a nuisance for asking lots of questions and the staff know everything that goes in their food.</span></div>

Baking gluten free scones for the first time yesterday I took a bit of a chance picking a recipe, but it turned out to the be the tastiest and easiest recipe ever!! So here it is.....</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
With thanks to: http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/member-recipes/Gluten-Free%20Scones/3483</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Ingredients:</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
175g gluten free self raising flour (I used Doves Farm)</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
50g ground almonds</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
large pinch salt</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
50g butter or hard marg (I used butter)</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
125ml milk</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Method:</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Preheat the oven to 200C.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Sift the flour and the salt into a bowl, then stir in the ground almonds.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Add the butter or marg and rub together until it looks like fine breadcrumbs.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Slowly, mixing with the back of a knife, add the milk until a soft dough is formed.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Bring together and gently knead in the bowl.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Turn out onto a lightly floured board, roll out to about 1.5inches thick, cut into circles with a cutter (I made mini ones) and place on a lightly greased baking tray.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Repeat until the dough is used. Bake for 10-15mins until golden brown and serve immediately.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Alternatively, cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight container for up to 24 hours or freeze for up to a month.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Serve with jam and clotted cream for a delicious treat...! </span></div>

I have always enjoyed a good Afternoon Tea, especially indulging in scones covered in jam and clotted cream, so since being diagnosed it's really been something I've missed.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Today for Mother's Day I thought I'd experiment and I made a gluten free Afternoon Tea for my family.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
My first tier consisted of salmon & chive philli sandwiches and ham & cucumber sandwiches (warburtons brown bread)</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
My second tier was for my home baked scones - the first time I've made them and boy were they good! How I've missed them!</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
My third was for lemon drizzle squares and brownie squares.</div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
All went down very well and definately wishing I'd made more scones!</div>

<br />
I<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; font-size: small;">'ve always found it hard since being diagnosed to come up with good ideas for lunches, especially at work as you have to prepare in advance. So if you struggle with thinking of yummy things to eat at lunchtime then this may help, I just mixed up a bit of a random mix of things but I've tested it and it's super yum!!</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Here's what is in my salad:</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Chorizo sausage</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Diced chicken breast</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Onion (probably better with red onion but I didn't have one!) *Cook the chicken and onion in the chorizo juices* </span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Butter beans</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Cherry tomatoes </span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Spinach</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">For a bit of a dressing I mixed some lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper together and mixed in.</span></div>

<b>Method </b></div>
