wheat free diet

[butter1]

Hi I'm on a wheat free diet and I just wondered if anyone had any nice recipes I could make?  I'm getting sick of salads and jacket potatos...

speak to the dietician attatached to your GP's surgery. They will have all sorts

You can have rice! All sorts, brown, vegetable, pilau... you can buy corn or rice pasta from Holland and Barrett and most supermarkets. You can have sweet potatoes instead of  normal potatoes. Use rye bread instead of normal bread-- toast it with honey or peanut butter, it;s great!

I make a lot of veg chillies and curries with lots of pulses- beans and chick peas, so you don't feel you need a lot of carbs. You can also have oat cakes in your lunchbox- spread them with houmous or mushroom spread etc. They REALLY fill you up. Or japanese rice crackers. Or rice cakes. Or Ryvita (make sure it only has rye and no wheat.)

Holland and Barrett also have some nice frozen "convenience" foods like veggie burgers and felaffel, in their freezer, which are wheat free. You can also buy rice noodles- thick or thin.

If you feel really naughty try making chocolate cake but substitute the wheat flour for ground almonds
