Super Delicious & Gluten-Free Meal Guide, Recipe Post #7: Gluten Free Grilled Chicken and Veggie Kabobs

Being gluten free means that you need to eliminate all wheat, barley, and rye from your diet – this also applies to any food product that may have come into contact with these grains. The main foods that are gluten free are rice, potatoes, oats, quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, millet, and corn. Other foods such as fresh fruits, vegetables, and non-wheat based flours can also be considered gluten-free. The health benefits of being gluten free are numerous. It can help improve digestion, reduce inflammation and keep the body healthy. It can also reduce the risk of obesity, autoimmune diseases, and certain forms of cancer.
