I am getting married in about a year and am stummped for an idea on what to serve! I am doing most of the work myself and thought about going to one of those companies that ship frozen appetizers to you and then I would just have server bake and serve. BUT - none of the sights I have found have any or very little gluten-free options. One idea I had was a cajun/seafood theme, but then just found out my mother is deathly allergic to shellfish and can't even be in the same room with it. I have the cake covered, I am just doing a 3 teir tower with gluten-free and "regular" cupcakes (a gluten-free topper to freeze and save). Anyone have any suggestions on what to serve, just as passed app's or maybe a heavier buffet line?

stuffed mushrooms, gluten-free pasta salad, spinach dip with veggies, cocktail sausages, fruit with fruit dip, cheese tray, I have a few hot dip recipes that are GREAT served with corn chips or veggies, nuts, mints, etc..... yum!

For my sons first birthday party, I am doing some dishes myself too. I am making my gluten free staple, sausage and peppers w/ onions. You can make that with or without red gravy.. they always make a great hit for me. Another half tray I have decided to do is kielbasa with sauerkraut. A yummy alternative to regular sweet italian sausage. Those are the main two that i know of for me now. When you come up with anymore, Can you please post them?? I could use some more ideas myself. Thanks.. hope this helps some!

You could make gluten-free lasagna with meat, or vegetarian. Turkey with rice stuffing or gluten free bread stuffing, chili, you could have a totally gluten-free menu and who would be the wiser. You could have buns on a separate table to avoid cross contamination.

We are doing a wedding for my daughter June 10........Some gluten, others not. Grilled smoked pork tenderloin on the grill a head of time with gluten free dry rub (Emeriles), Polenta, or wild rice - Fresh tomatoes with Motzzerela cheese - sp?, with a gluten free vineagar/balsamic dressing with fresh parsley or basel. - Cheese and pate's with various crackers and breads (not me). Cheese is good and pates. Smoked Salmon with Emerils dry rub for Salmon. I can eat almost everything except for the bread.

Sorry about the spelling, drank a milkshake in the way back from the beach - a white poop event tonight.

Many things I can eat, but the obvious will be there. We set it up so some of the older people can make a plate, or you could stand and munch.

Work with your cater and request specific seasonings and you should do well and have a wonderful time.

PM me if you have any other questions, perhaps I can be of help.

Thanks guys, very helpful. Never thought about grilling anything, but don't see why not.

Also like the make ahead sausage dishes!

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
