Almost two weeks gluten-free, I'm on a roll (that's a pun)! It hasn't been as difficult as I thought it would be and I'm inspired to keep it positive. Thank the gods for the internet, where I've found a plethora of information and gained a respectful perspective on people living with Celiac Disease. I don't have Celiac, but I do think there is a connection between gluten-sensitivity and aging.
Kudos to Trader Joe's! Check out this awesome gluten-free list I found online. One of my favorites, even before I took the leap, is the Chicken Curry Tenders. To offset the insane sodium count, I grill, slice, toss (over heat) with coconut milk, a bunch of veggies, a little Thai basil, serve over rice and voila - a meal even my kids devour! TJ's also carries Udi's bread and man, that's good stuff. And in case you've never tried this, Bragg's Liquid Aminos is a great gluten-free alternative to soy sauce. I've been using it for years and actually prefer it to traditional soy.
Have an amazingly healthy GF day!
