If you have an allergy or intolerance for wheat, (probably my personal favorite food), you will be delighted to see these three unique and delicious recipes. Try them out and give us some feedback. We’d love to know how you like them.
Wheat intolerance is the most common type of food intolerance. However, like other food aversions, all wheat sensitivity is not the same in each person who has it. Wheat intolerance generally refers to a non-allergic negative reaction to eating products containing wheat. Some people with wheat intolerance gain some degree of tolerance to wheat over time.
The most common remedy is to avoid foods with wheat. This may restrict food choices, but it is not the end of the world. In fact, there are some tasty recipes for those with wheat intolerance with plenty of flavour and texture. Cooking without wheat just means learning to use new flour mixes and grain selections such as millet rice and corn. Here are three amazing recipes those with an aversion to wheat can enjoy.
