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.

      Do you believe your swallowing is a manifestation of your neuropathy? I'm thinking if you are having trouble getting food down you need to focus on consuming things that have a high nutritional density so that whatever you are able to get down counts for something. Have you looked at Boost and other high protein/high calorie shake products?  They are fortified with vitamins and minerals as well. Do you have any trouble with aspiration of liquids? For celiac testing purposes, the guidelines are calling for daily consumption of about 10gm of gluten - the amount in about 4-6 slices of bread - in order to ensure valid testing. That sounds like it would be a challenger for you.

      Thank you and I am aware that I should be eating a "normal" diet until tested it's kind of been trial and error for my diet or more like just ERROR! I about 1-3 bites a meal I'm to a point that 99 percent of the time I'm having trouble swallowing just about everything occasionally I find either something or a very small window of time that allows me to get very little of something! I am basically getting zero nutrition what so ever because I take one bite of the meal that I usually just slaved over just to end up tossing it when it's all said and done...did anyone else ever experience anything like this?  I am more then open to suggestions! It is taking a very extreme toll on me and my body forsure

      No! Do not start the gluten free diet until you know whether or not you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to verify the blood antibody test results. Starting gluten free eating ahead of either form of diagnostic testing can invalidate the results. You don't want to allow the villous lining of the small bowel to experience healing ahead of testing by removing gluten.

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.
