The Union Joints' gluten free menu

(WJBK) - Eating gluten free is not an option for many people, which makes going out to eat challenging. The Union Joints recognize this and have crafted a menu with lots of gluten free options to choose from.

Executive Chef Aaron Cozadd joins us in the FOX 2 Cooking School to tell us more about the menus. He even shared one of his recipes with us, which you can find below.
