I love to cook and bake and discovered I had Celiac disease one year ago. What a change I had to make! I also found out Peanut Butter and soy and some dairy was no longer on my "can eat" list. I have learned through trial and error to make new foods such as Gluten free bread that is actually not half bad. I have fun learning new ways to cook Gluten Free.
I am "famous" in my family for my chicken Enchiladas and family-style Tamale pie.
