Gluten free menu plan: September 22-28, 2013

The third week of September already! Where does the time go? I’m as busy as ever with a plethora of A+mazing developments brewing in my ever evolving kitchen. This week’s menu plan has a diverse mix of spicy, hearty and heart healthy ingredients. It’s also the first official week of fall. I’m praying we will have a real autumn this year. Rochester seasons are highly unpredictable.

Have an awesome week!
