14 Gluten-Free Recipes That Don’t Feel Low Carb
14 Gluten-Free Recipes That Don’t Feel Low Carb
Because not everyone who’s gluten free is looking for a low-carb diet.
Lately it look's like gluten-free diets have become synonymous with low-carb foods. For someone who has celiac disease or a gluten allergy, low-carb meals might be something they feel thrown into—but that shouldn’t always be the case.
People avoiding gluten can feel satiated with lot's of gluten-free grains and starches. We love to provide creative ways to use whole grains like amaranth, buckwheat, corn, millet, oats, quinoa, rice, sorghum, and teff in our dishes. Starchy foods like potatoes, sweet potatoes, beans, lentils, and gluten-free flours are all great ways to boost the satiety of a meal, too.
We bring you our favorite gluten-free recipes that are loaded with carbohydrate-rich ingredients to remind everyone who’s gluten free that healthy carbs can still be incorporated in there diet. Keep in mind to always double check ingredients for wheat or gluten before purchasing.
