Weekly Gluten-Free Round Up –June 5,2011

This week I’ve tried to alphabetize the entries in each area. It’s a bit problematic because people do freely name their recipes but my sense of data order is offended by the chaos. To try to assist,I’m moving the designations like Dairy-Free,Vegan,etc to be after the name of the dish and abbreviating them. I’ve also removed the GF designation because I always check to make sure whatever is on this list is always glutens-free. Hopefully I won’t offend anyone. Let me know if this new method helps.

Feedback is always welcome. Remember that I parse through all these links myself –at the moment it’s about 1500-1700 posts on my RSS feed and another hundred or two via alerts. Hoping it’s helping anyone reading.
