    Here are a few nice ones:

    Marinated Fresh Vegetables

    3 tablespoons grated onion
    1 tablespoon poppy seeds
    1 1/2 teaspoons ground mustard
    3/4 teaspoon salt

    ____________
    DIRECTIONS
    In a large bowl, combine the vegetables. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the remaining ingredients; shake well. Pour over vegetables; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Serve with a slotted spoon.

    Cheesy Baked Cauliflower

    __________
    INGREDIENTS
    1 head cauliflower
    1/4 cup butter, cut into pieces
    1 teaspoon mayonnaise
    1 teaspoon prepared mustard
    1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

    ___________
    DIRECTIONS
    Steam whole head of cauliflower for 30 minutes. Drain and place on a pie plate.
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
    In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise and mustard; spread the mixture over cauliflower and dot with pats of butter. Sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese.
    Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) uncovered, for about 30 minutes, or until the cheese is brown.

    Stuffed Mushrooms

    ____________
    INGREDIENTS
    8 large fresh mushrooms
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    2 cups ricotta cheese
    3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
    4 tablespoons pesto

    ____________
    DIRECTIONS
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
    Wash mushrooms, remove stems, hollow out and brush inside and out with olive oil.
    In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine cheese and pesto, reserving 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese for later. Stuff the cheese-pesto mixture into the mushroom caps. Arrange the caps on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle the mushrooms with the reserved Parmesan cheese.
    Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and brownish.

    Enjoy

    Amy’s kitchen makes some very good wheat-free rice crust pizzas. Thai kitchen rice noodles are also vegetarian and wheat-free.

    I too am allergic to wheat. I would suggest getting some rice bread from… they have some wheat and gluten free breads that are quite good.

    Also, go to your health store and buy spelt flour as a substitute for wheat flour for breading or other cooking needs. I’ve also heard that Amaranth flour is high in protein and good for you…I haven’t tried it yet.

    As far as cutting meat goes, it is easiest to replace meat with Boca burgers or Smart Dogs or even Tofu in recipes.

    hope I helped
