I’m turning into my mother. I remember as kids every time we went somewhere, whether it be for a bike ride, to an amusement park and so on, she would insist we take a picnic lunch. My sister and were never happy with this as we wanted to eat out and it was great when

I saw an advertisement on TV for Hellmann’s Mayonnaise with this recipe. Whilst it sounded, let’s say interesting, I was intrigued and had to try it. The first time I tried this recipe I bought some gluten free rice crumbs but I found them too crunchy with an almost sand type texture. The next time
