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. Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies Gluten-Free Chicken Fingers Taco Soup (Chef Meg's Makeover) Crackers - Wheat / Gluten / Yeast Free Sesame Bars (Raw & Gluten Free) Gluten Free Brownies Gluten Free Veggie Quiche with Potato Crust Low Carb, Gluten Free Zucchini Pizza Crust Gluten-Free Country Style Bread Gluten Free Double-Pumpkin Pie Flourless Chocolate Cake Flourless crepes A Year of Slowing Cooking is also a great resource for gluten-free recipes.
