Dave’s Gluten Free Recipes by Sharyn Thompson
One of the great things about Sharyn’s Pantry is being able to talk about and share new recipes with and from my customers. Dave shops weekly at my store. He is basically following a Paleo and Gluten-free diet. He recited to me from memory the following recipes.
With the Healthy Living and Wellness Fair running tomorrow afternoon at the Harvest Christian Felowship Church at 847 York Street from 1 – 4 pm, including gluten-free alternatives, these recipes are spot on.
I cannot attend the workshop, but I am sending lists of all the gluten-free products we carry at Sharyn’s Pantry. There is no need to go out of town to find everything necessary to be gluten free. Try my store first. Thanks Dave for caring and sharing! Good luck Mary and Sylvie with your Wellness Fair tomorrow afternoon!
