It would also be good in spaghetti sauce and any pancake/crepe mix. I do try to sneak in the good stuff whenever I can. Just like I use to do with wheat bran. Sure could use this book.:) Here's to new healthier friendships! I have used it in my meatloaf. It would also be good in spaghetti sauce and any pancake/crepe mix.

I appreciate it — it sounds delicious. I'll give it a try. Very creative mix of ingredients, but I think I've heard you're a chef, so I'm not surprised you came up with such an awesome way to prepare a cube steak. I'm aware that your dad is the science guru for MT GF. He's a brilliant guy with lots of good ideas. We need people like Dave and the farmers to help make positive changes in the food system. I appreciate what all of you are doing for the GF community. We have to vote with our forks! Thanks and here's to a healthy and happy 2013. Melissa PS You should GF do cooking demos, if you don't already. Allen,

He, David Sands, is largely responsible for these products being available. So I am not trying to win. But here is my favorite thing to do with the oat bran. Feel free to do whatever you want with my recipe, I suppose a little credit would be nice, but hey, I have had celiac disease for 8 years and I know how much you might crave a good chicken fried steak! GF FRIED STEAK 3 1/3 lb. cube steaks, sometimes I use Italian sausage too 1/2 cup Montina gf oat bran 1/2 cup Montina gf oat flour 1/2 cup Montina gf oats 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika 1/4 teaspoon chipotle 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1 large egg 1/2 cup milk Beat the egg and milk until it's smooth Mix all the other ingredients (besides the meat) together. Dip the steaks in the milk egg mixture and then dredge them in the oat mixture. I double dip for an extra thick coating. You can then cook these in oil or butter in a heavy skillet. I personally use my gf deep fryer, which I highly recommend having. I cook them at 350° for 5-6 minutes. Let them rest on paper towels for a couple of minutes before serving. If you deep fry them you probably need to salt them again after frying. Enjoy I have bags of oat bran, oat flour, and oats that my father gave me to develop recipes with (and enjoy).

I sooo appreciate them and their hard work and passion. This recipe sounds good. I'm working on getting my Iron levels up right now so that give me a good excuse to make a batch of these bad boys. I think I'd use the oat bran to make some nutrient-dense chocolate chocolate pie. Oh yeah baby! I’d love to hug a farmer! I sooo appreciate them and their hard work and passion.

I love beans, lentils, brown rice, and oats. For me, I see no reason to give those up. Plus, paleo is too "animal product" heavy for me. Some of the basics make total sense though. Whole foods, lots of vegetables, high-grade meat sources, no sugar, no dairy, etc. I don't strictly adhere to the no sugar, no dairy part. I should, but such is life! I'm continually "fine tuning" my diet as well. =) Thanks! Have a great week. Onward... Melissa IrishHeart,

But I do like some of Elana Amsterdam's recipes, so I make the pumpkin bread and a few others. She is another generous blogger-- like you-- who freely shares her knowledge and recipes. I am not a strict primal eater. I have tried it for weeks at a time to see if I notice any difference in inflammation and joint/muscle pain, but I almost always give in after a while because I miss the quinoa and black bean stuffed peppers I make or I find that I really want brown rice with chicken. I am still fine tuning my diet. We'll see what the next year of healing brings. :) Melissa,
