One of the greatest losses for me when becoming gluten-free was the amount of Asian food I couldn't eat anymore. I have always been a huge fan of noodles and have had fantasies of eating Lo Mein on the floor of my empty living room out of the carton when buying my first house. I'm … Continue reading Gluten-Free Lo Mein
