With 1 in 33 US citizens suffering from celiac disease and more people becoming intolerant to glu-ten, the rise in gluten-free cooking has been huge. Rather than being bland and repetitive, gluten-free cooking can be exciting and varied, especially when you plan ahead.
Meal planning is not only a great way to feed your family on a budget, it reduces the chances of you inadvertently eating gluten when you are rushing around trying to get dinner cooked. By shop-ping in advance and thinking about what meals you can prepare through the week, your diet will be a lot more varied.
Take a look at our gluten free meal plan for inspiration for your next grocery shop. All of the recipes that we have chosen are easy to make and the ingredients are readily available in grocery stores.
