Some More Unceremoniously Gluten Free Comments

There is some more information to add about this blog...

I, Kate, am eating Gluten Free for Fibromyalgia and Migraines, like I said. My girlfriend, Brooke, is eating Gluten Free mostly to support me, but also because she has some stomach issues and is hopeful that the gluten free way will help her.

We are hoping to learn how to eat gluten free affordably; she is working and going to school, and I am not working, and am waiting to hear if I have been accepted for disability. We therefore don't have a high food budget, and as gluten free can be very expensive, we are going to try to make it as affordable as possible.

We will also investigate convenient gluten free cooking, and how good it is to make gluten free meals in advance, and freezing them for later. I usually am not really a fan of this; I like making my meals and then eating them right away. So this could be interesting.

We also want to learn about eating out gluten free. You will inevitably eat out, so what can you do when you're not eating gluten? Our friend was having a celebration and wanted to go to Buca di Beppo for his dinner. Obviously an Italian place, pasta galore. Brooke and I ordered the Chicken Saltemboca (chicken, proscuitto, artichokes, capers), and told them we were eating Gluten Free, so they didn't bread the chicken, just simply sauteed it. Turns out to be healthier for anyone. And the waiter was extremely friendly, and discussed all meal choices with us to make sure they were gluten free. We will keep you posted with more gluten free dining options.
