Yummy!!

Is there someone special in your life who wears braces? My sister did, and it was always so difficult for her to find yummy stuff to eat that didn't get stuck in those darn braces!

There's good news! Celebrity Chef Gale Gand has teamed up with the American Association of Orthodontists to create braces-friendly recipes for the more than 5 million North Americans that currently wear braces. These recipes are braces safe, which means they don’t include ingredients that are chewy, hard, sticky or crunchy. Orthodontists recommend avoiding these foods so that orthodontic treatments aren’t damaged or prolonged.

Check out Gale’s recipe for Savory Chicken Potpie -- Doesn't it look delicious?


Oh, and you've got to check out this video of Gand making her desert braces-friendly option, Chocolate Covered Baked Bananas over Ice Cream.
Yummy... It's enough to make your mouth water!


Bon Appetit!!
