Christmas dinner - What are you making?

I am completely uninspired for what to serve for Christmas dinner.  Last year, my BIL smoked ribs and I made sides like scalloped potatoes in the crockpot and cheesy corn bake and cornbread.  In past years, I make lasagna and different pasta dishes.  The good thing about lasagna is that all you really need is a salad with it - so that is very easy. But I have a 21 year old son and a hub that will help with food ( they will help make it as well as eat it :P), so making some sides isn't too much work.  We will have some cookies and choc & a PB fudge for dessert (son will make :wub:).

What are you making for Christmas dinner?

I need to bring our food to another house on Christmas Day and I have not decided yet.  I like the ribs idea since I am bring baked beans for everyone to share.  On Christmas Eve, I am making a family tradition: stuffed cabbage rolls, sauerkraut, potatoes, and kolacky (cookies) for dessert.   My hubby loves  cranberry orange coconut shortbread cookies, so I’ll make a batch of those too.

I started a habit 2 years ago of cooking salmon for Christmas, Sorta Turkey on thanksgiving ham for New Years.....did some research and for the actual basis of the Christmas holiday neither red meat, or poultry were actually appropriate but fish would have been. SOO I opted for the one meat I really can eat. I have done a bake with a paprika, bit of cinnamon and a maple or honey glaze, and a smoked one over a plank. I serve along side green beans I cook with some bacon for flavoring, I normally do a dessert of some kind and another dish, this year I am thinking bacon or teriyaki brussels from my recipe blog....and a pan of keto dressing using my coconut keto bread with poultry seasoning and some blended sautes onion, and celery in a vegetable broth and cashew milk mix it up and bake, and my grain free sugar cookies. for dessert.

      Work friends & food

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Awol cast iron stomach · Posted

      "...hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea" . Heard of indeed. Experienced too. In hindsight, I can remember from age 2 having, and trying to convey my issues. I went 38 years misdiagnosed. So yes one can have these issues. I did have to go back on gluten for a gluten challenge. I failed that challenge and 6 days in they give me permission to stop, and I proceed with my scopes as scheduled. Post those 6 days I had gained 13 intolerances. I had to remove many foods, and reintroduce them back in. Nine years later I have two that remain gluten, and corn. I found it helpful to follow a whole foods diet. I also found autoimmune (AIP) protocol diet/recipes, and Paleo diet/recipes helpful. I still enjoy many of those homemade version recipes. I still continue to make my own salad dressings even if I can find a gluten-free store bought version. Fresh taste best to this palate now.  I did give up many grains I was off many and reverted to coconut flour and almond flour as work arounds .  I still remember the first time my gut experienced the reintroduction of quinoa. It wasn't sure if it wanted to flare or not. In 30 minutes it reported back ok this will pass. Many foods were removed post gluten challenge for me for 2 years and 4 months. At the 2 year 4 month mark is when my body said ok let's eat again, but don't ever feed me gluten again! I wish you the best.

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.

      TTG IgA 0.30 U/ml: further tests?

      By lookingforanswersone · Posted

      Thanks everyone. I've decided to do a gluten challenge (4 slices of bread a day for 3 months) and then do a full gluten panel of all the tests that can be done, just to rule it in or out for sure. I think otherwise psychologically it will keep bothering me

      Thanks Scott. Those articles are really interesting. I’m cutting out gluten for 6 weeks but honestly I’m not sure I even want to reintroduce it! I ate at a restaurant for the first time on Wednesday and then Thursday was really uncomfortable and had a few trips to the loo.. wonder if there was some cross contamination 🤷‍♀️ if that’s how my body reacts after not eating it for 3 weeks I’m not sure it’s worth reintroducing it and re testing for celiac! It might have been a coincidence I realise that I’m not going to feel better all of a sudden and my gut is probably still trying to heal. Thanks for your supportive message!
