Hello, My name is Esther. I was diagnosed with an allergy to Wheat. I do not have a Gluten allergy, however those two tend to coincide, so I just avoid it altogether if possible. What have been some of your favorite Gluten Free/ Wheat Free recipes?

    Haveyou looked online at marksdilyapple.com, nomnompaleo, OMGpaleo. Paleo/primal is gluten free. You can also probably request some books from your local library, just type paleo or primal in the search engine
