Gluten Free Stuffing Solution….

Ah, Stuffing….

One of the mainstays of the Thanksgiving table, this delicious side of bread, onions, and spices has become almost as American as Apple Pie.

For those of us with Celiac Disease or Gluten Intolerance, however, stuffing can prove to be a bit more complicated.

Yesterday, I received a comment inquiring about a pre-made Gluten Free Stuffing Mix. Other than one or two specialty bakeries throughout the US, I have not seen a Gluten Free Stuffing Mix. Instead, I make my own! I know, I know… It sounds complicated, but trust me! It is remarkably simple. Follow these easy steps and you will have traditional Thanksgiving Stuffing that any “Gluten Eater” will enjoy!
