Gluten Free, Or Not, Strawberry Ricotta Tart with Strawberry Balsamic Glaze. This is a great dessert for the gluten-free crowd, and it works just as well using regular flour. You can also try a variety of berries on this dessert. Just use what- ever's freshest. I use my special blend of gluten-free flour for the crust, but you can use any type of gluten-free flour, or regular flour if there are no allergies involved.
