Super Bowl LVIII is nearly here and millions of football fans across the country are prepping their dishes ahead of the big game.
Whether you’re planning burgers and hot dogs or chips and dip, food is the centerpiece of a good Super Bowl party.
A social media chef known as The Toasted Pine Nut, Lindsay Grimes, shared a gluten-free recipe with Fox News Digital ahead of the big game.

In an effort to “never turn down dessert,” Grimes recently wrote a new cookbook featuring over 100 gluten-free dessert recipes, which hits stands on March 26.

Grimes said her family’s dietary needs include a low glycemic menu — meaning foods must help those who struggle with regulating their blood sugar.
The New Jersey resident said that although no one in her family is gluten-free, she sees that the preference tends to be an underlying factor in most of her recipes.
