And with Easter fast approaching I am in serious camping mode, so the two had to be combined into these yummy gluten free camping breakfast recipes.

As many regular readers will know I am intolerant to lactose, and my nephew hasCoeliac disease (meaning he can’t eat even the smallest amount of wheat). So when Delicious Alchemy got in touch to give some of their gluten free products a try, I nearly bit their arm off! :D One can of coconut milk is enough for two servings and you can use full fat or reduced fat coconut milk.
