Increasingly, women are being diagnosed with
gluten intolerance.
A recent Mayo Clinic study found a dramatic increase in the number of cases of gluten intolerance; Interestingly, the group most affected is women in their 40s, 50s and 60s.
Here are some nutritious, elegant choices for gluten-free dining:
Roasted Edamame Salad Edamame is just a fancy name for boiled green soybeans in salt water. In East Asia, the soybean has been used for over two thousand years as a major source of protein. Edamame offers a whopping 9 grams in a half-cup serving, about the same amount you'll find in 4 slices of whole-wheat bread or 4 cups of steamed zucchini!
Japanese Style Cucumber Salad Unlike ubiquitous mayonnaise-based potato or macaroni salad, this one only gets better over time. Make it in the morning after breakfast--By the time guests arrive for an afternoon gathering, the salad's flavor is at its peak.
Gramma's Cottage Bean and Ham Soup This recipe features peameal bacon, a cured pork loin that has not been smoked, and is rolled in cornmeal. It is not to be confused with bacon sold as "Canadian Bacon", which is more of a ham in texture and flavor..
