Gluten Free Menu Plan: March 23-29, 2014

Spring has finally officially arrived. I wouldn’t know it as our temperatures hover in the low 20′s, overcast skies, and snow flurries :( I won’t say anymore. What I will say is that this week’s menu features some spring inspired healthy, simple, and family friendly recipes. I’m busier than ever so short and simple is the theme of the week. Work smarter not harder :)

Happy Spring
