Potato flour substitute, do you figure? My husband's one of them gluten-free fellows now. Your recipes sounds so yummy! Thanks, Janet!
I have never heard of potato flour! I know gluten free seems to be everywhere. I'm sure you're learning a lot of gluten free methods. Hope it works for him. Thanks for stopping in.
Broccoli, yum!!
