I received an e-mail on Thursday from one of our new customers and I just had to share it with you:

“Thank you so much for this sauce!! It has totally changed my diet and I can finally have all the food I’ve missed out on since being diagnosed with a tomato allergy. I’m a coeliac as well so whilst I could still get gluten free pizza bases – I had no sauce to go on top until now. Please don’t ever stop making this. I’m a lifelong customer!!”

Thank you SO much for the kind words Emily!  It’s really great to hear feedback like this, and great to know we are making a positive impact for tomato allergy sufferers.

In fact, it got me thinking I should probably put together a page just for all the great feedback we keep getting!  Please head on over to our testimonials section when it is done to take a look. Thanks!

Boy oh boy it has been SO cold these last few days.  My car had -7 on the dash this morning.  Brrrrr.  I think tonight I might warm up with a nice hot Chili-con-carne (made with our awesome alternative to Tomatoes of course!) with garlic bread dunkers.  Yummy!

I have been doing really well with avoiding the tomatoes lately.  It has been AGES since I last had any pains.  In fact, the last time was several months ago when I thought I would do a test with an Organic tomato to see whether it would have the same effect on me.  I ate just one quarter of a small fresh organic tomato – Big mistake!  Huge!  It’s difficult to describe the pain, but (at the risk of getting beaten up by wife – hehe) I can only image it to be something akin to childbirth. It is THAT bad!  Suffice to say, I will NOT be doing any more re-introduction tests like that again.  Whether organic or not!

With the weather being this cold, wouldn’t it be great if we had a white Christmas this year!

 

 

Wowsers, this year has FLOWN by hasn’t it?!   I didn’t even manage to get to see the switching on of the Rayleigh Christmas lights this year *sob* – Had to work late.  Did any of you get to see the switching on?

I’d like to send fondest Christmas Wishes to all our family, friends, and customers and visitors of TomatoFree.co.uk!

Talking of Tomato Free: We had a fantastic mixed bean tomato free sauce pasta last night. It was Yummy!  Really simple to make too. Just boil your favorite pasta shapes until just cooked, whilst sautéing mixed beans in a pan (we had kidney beans and chick-peas) – add some stock and a jar of Ally’s Tomato Free sauce, mix it all together and heat through.  A little seasoning and you’re done. It was great!

Wishing all our customers a very happy Easter weekend.  Don’t eat too much chocolate! It’s good to see the sun coming back out.  Maybe it’ll be good enough for a Barbecue (with lashings of Yazz’s Sweet-Chilli-Tastic YUMMY!).

Have a good one!
