12 Gluten-Free SparkRecipes
In March, I ran a half marathon with a friend whose 6-year-old-son has Celiac Disease. We ran to benefit Team Gluten Free, a fundraising program that provides a simple way for recreational athletes to raise awareness about this disease. Since my friend's son often visits my house, and because several of my family and friends have also gone gluten-free, I took the opportunity to expand my cooking skills to include gluten-free dishes. This was a little bit intimidating at first, but with a little reading and practice I've discovered many simple recipes that are now family favorites. In honor of Celiac Awareness Month (October 2011), I've listed some of SparkRecipes best gluten-free dishes for your enjoyment.

My favorite cracker is Crunchmaster which I get at Sam's Club, but now see them in Wal-Mart. I consider them much tastier than potato chips. Trader Joe's also has good rice crackers and they carry other GF products.
One gets used to cooking and eating gluten free and it can be done! Must be a great label reader - even the 10 year old in our family reads the labels. - 11/3/2011 9:24:57 PM
One other thing that is difficult to get in on a gluten free diet is iron. One does not realize how much of the iron in our diets come from iron-fortified cereal until one cannot eat this. Red meat you say?? Look up how much iron red meat has--you'd have to eat about 12 ounces to get 9 mg of iron and the recommendation for iron is 9-18 (or more) mg a day. - 10/14/2011 1:24:26 AM
