3 Tips for Easy Gluten-Free Eating—and 10 Tasty Recipes To Get You Started
Worried that going gluten-free means giving up deliciousness? Don’t sweat it—avoiding gluten (which can be problematic for those with gluten intolerance, celiac disease, or irritable bowel syndrome) doesn’t have to mean sacrificing all things tasty.
A gluten-free lifestyle can still be a culinary adventure full of diverse tastes and satisfying flavors. A few simple guidelines will help ease the transition to a gluten-free diet:
- Be mindful of processed foods. Processed foods typically contain gluten unless labeled gluten-free. Focus on whole foods like fresh fruits, vegetables, fish, meats, eggs, and root vegetables, which are naturally gluten-free.
- Keep it simple. Elaborate recipes can be overwhelming for beginners. Start with easy recipes that include a carb, protein, and healthy fat source.
- Make easy substitutes. Swap gluten-containing foods like bread, crackers, and pasta with gluten-free alternatives. (Pro tip: we’ve got tons of options in our virtual aisles!)
