Dairy And Gluten Free Meal Plan On A Budget

If you can’t have gluten, then this gluten free meal plan for you.  This meal plan is gluten free, but it also happens to be dairy free.  

This plan is designed for one week for two adults, but many foods may last more than just one week. A decent amount of cooking is required for this plan. Most items are from Walmart, but there are a few that are not available from Walmart, so their prices are from Fred Meyers.
