In honor of this, we&#8217;re offering insight into the gluten-free lifestyle and how you can incorporate gluten-free dishes into your own menu.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What does it mean to be gluten-free? Whether by choice or by dietary necessity, people across the nation are converting to a gluten-free lifestyle, and restaurants must be prepared not only to accommodate, but to delight them with exciting and groundbreaking recipes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>What is gluten?<\/b> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.the-gluten-free-chef.com\/what-is-gluten.html\">Gluten is the protein content of wheat<\/a>. It takes various forms depending on the grain in which it is found. In a person with celiac disease, these proteins will attack the body and impede the absorption of vital nutrients. However, many people without celiac disease or other gluten sensitivity issues have also made the choice to remove gluten from their diet.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gluten is not an essential part of a healthy diet<\/strong>, but it is prevalent, and the foods in which it&#8217;s found may surprise you! Take a look at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.the-gluten-free-chef.com\/foods-containing-gluten.html\">these foods\u00a0<\/a>containing gluten, and you&#8217;ll see why maintaining a gluten-free diet can be such a challenge!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By offering gluten-free meals, you can reach out to the growing portion of American diners who have made the choice to live gluten-free.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Choose gluten-free grains<\/strong>. Gluten-free meals rely on grains such as rice and quinoa to take the place of wheat.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Offer a variety of gluten-free options.<\/strong> Take a tip from <a href=\"http:\/\/glutenfreeville.com\/research\/heres-the-pf-changs-new-gluten-free-menu\">P.F.
