I had friends over for dinner and this is what I made...
/A couple of weeks ago, I hosted a dinner party for 6 of my friends. I love having people over (though I don't do it nearly as enough as I'd like to) and had a blast cooking for everyone. Admittedly, I got a bit carried away because there were so many recipes I wanted to make!
In today's post, I want to tell you about the 8 gluten-free recipes that I made. Some were new ones I wanted to try out and others were old favorites. I would definitely make them again!
I encourage you to give these a try...they're simple and delicious!
