ARCHIVED Tinkyada Lasagna Noodles
mellajane replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I do not pre cook my noodles as well and cook it longer...Lasagna turns out awesome. -
I agree yes I think it does take us longer. I seriously have avoided people with the flu at work like crazy. They do not realize once I get sick I stay sick for a while. My symptoms from wheat are throwing up for days and sweats as is. For some reason anything that makes me sick end in a bad result that last longer than it should.
