Why it works
- Celiac disease: Naturally gluten-free: quinoa, fresh vegetables, chicken and gluten-free stock — no flour, breadcrumbs or soy sauce anywhere.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
