In an effort to naturally relieve my body of any complications due to my lovely autoimmune disorder, I am going to experimentally go gluten free for an undetermined amount of time. When I'll start, I don't know. I have a feeling this won't last long, or last at all, but I figure it's worth a try.
So I have printed off my first gluten free recipe. If anyone else wants to try this, let me know how you liked it:
