Cozy Fall Recipes
Guest worthy shareable gluten-free comfort food
I live in Northern California, and we are in the middle of what they call an atmospheric river. There have been 10 inches of rain, overflowing streams, and cold weather. Warming soup and cozy casseroles are in order!
Happy Thanksgiving! Here are the Thanksgiving Recipes I recently posted:
Thanksgiving can be fraught with digestive landmines if you are new to a gluten-free diet. Here are some tips that work for me.
When in doubt, bring a casserole to share with friends and family. I love contributing a large cornbread sausage stuffing, a huge salad, and sweet potatoes. I always feel safer eating my homemade food.
Have a snack before you arrive. If there are no gf appetizers, you won’t be starved.
Bring a few loaves of gf french bread or some delicious gluten-free crackers to share.
If you accidentally eat gluten, drink lots of water, have a cup of bloat-busting fennel tea, take a ginger capsule, and warm up that heating pad when you get home.
