    I like you, lived off a loaf of french bread, cheese and avocado a day. That was 16 years age. Back then It was impossible to find any gluten-free flour at all. I started with making my own rice flour from brown rice. Luckily I stared to find gluten-free flours at health food stores. Sprouts and Jimbo's are the one's I have available to me. Grocery Stores...

    My go to gluten-free flour is Trader Joes. 3.99 for 1 lb. I use this everyday, to thicken sauces, stews, etc. It also works really good for muffins, pancakes, quick breads(like banana). If I am making something nice to share, I use King Arthur, a little more expensive 7.99 for 20 oz. I do get it on sale through the King Arthur website every now and then...

    Try fresh lemons cut in half, rub the lemon on the inside of the pot and then add water and swirls the lemons and water around. This should clean the inside of the pot.

    Use the King Arthur Gluten Free Flour. I have my best result with that brand. When I want to bake in order to take someplace, I use KAF. It is my go to brand. Also if you have access to Trader Joe's they also have a 1 pound bag for about $4 that is also good

    Amaranth, millet, and Quinoa make a great substitute. Beef stroganoff can be made with potato starch and I substitute rice instead of noodles. Or I use rice pasta for the noodles.

    Try the King Arthur website. They are really good with gluten free recipes. Also I suggest you use King Arthur Gluten Free Flour. Whatever you make always turns out better with their flour. Open Original Shared Link

    For gravy try the potato flour. It works really well, you don't need as much it thickens fast so stir quickly. You can also make a great biscuit from potato flour. As for pies try almond meal and/or walnut meal, butter and sugar. This works really well for fruit pies and pumpkin.

    I find the Bob's Red Mill all purpose flour makes a really good banana bread or zucchini bread ( it is that time of year). Just don't forget the xanthan gum, 1 teaspoon should do.

    Try 1/4 cup olive oil in a very large pot of boiling water. Add the spaghetti noodles slowly making sure they are separated as they hit the water. Continue to stir the noodles until they start to bend and become flexible. Lifting and coating the noodles with the olive oil. Continue to cook until they are cooked to your preference. I have tried all different...

    Try Potato starch or Potato flour. The other thing I have used is Gluten Free Corn Flakes, just crush them in a plastic bag. Also marinade the chicken in buttermilk. The coating sticks better.

    Have you tried lettuce wraps, use lettuce as the bread. Also baked potato, they can be topped with a variety of different options. Soups are also a good choice for lunch.

    The website claims 4.99 shipping on standard orders. Anything over 50 dollars is free. They say shipping is USPS and/or UPS. Might be worth a try!

    I use the King Arthur Gluten Free Pie recipe. http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/gluten-free-pie-crust-recipe Use the lemon juice verses the vinegar. You can also do this in the food processor, because there is no Gluten to make it tough. The King Arthur flour is a combination of flours, so it is less gritey.

    You substitute King Arthur All purpose Gluten Free Flour for the corn starch. The King Arthur Flour is a combination of Rice, Potato and Tapioca flours.

    If it doesn't smell good, how could it possibly taste good. I use an old corn bread recipe converted to gluten free for stuffing. No one can tell the difference. If you don't want to go to all that trouble, try the Udi's gluten free breads.

    You might try the gluten free pasta noodles made with potato. These noodles hold up really well with mac and cheese recipes. Can be hard to find, try health food stores.

    Try 2 eggs scrambled with your parmesan.
