Common Questions:

What Can I Substitute The Bread Crumbs With If I Am Gluten Free?

If you are looking to replace the bread crumbs in this recipe with something that is gluten free there are several options available. First, there are gluten free bread crumbs available to purchase (or you can make your own by using the heals or stale gluten free bread). Alternatively we have had great success using panko bread crumbs, ground up Parmesan cheese crisps as well as ground up pork rinds. As with anything when you cooking gluten free check your labels to make sure they don’t contain gluten.

Can I Use Other Vegetables In This Recipe?

You can easily substitute other summer squash (such as yellow squash) in this recipe for the zucchini.

Can I Use Something Other Than Cream Of Celery Soup?

If you are not a fan of cream of celery soup you can also use cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom soup in this recipe. If you are on a gluten free diet there are “cream of” soups available on the market that are gluten free. You just need to look for them.
