Congratulations!

Are you and/or your family and friends preparing the Hors D'oeuvres or are you using a caterer? If caterer, they may be able to help out with suggestions............

Do you want finger food - or will you also have utensils?

peanut chicken skewers

Italian sausage baked with applesauce and onions on gluten-free crackers (we call it cider sausage - yum!)

roasted/grilled veggies

fruit and cheese tray

I think some varieties of cocktail weiners are safe...not sure.....

tomato and fresh mozzerella with basil

I'll keep thinking on it......Good luck!

The cider sausage is great we had that at my last family get together.. it was a big hit.

Cocktail Franks I bought the little hot dogs my self and used Chebe bread to wrap them in.. no one knew the difference

my favorite thing is smoked salmon w/ cream cheese and chopped red onions, served on Trader Joe's Savory Thins. I eat that for dinner a lot, in fact.

My all time favorite, and easiest to make are water chestnuts wrapped in bacon.

Get whole water chestnuts, wrap each one in 1 strip of bacon and stick 'em with a toothpick

30-45 minutes at 350 F should do it...just make sure the bacon is cooked all the way!

JUNE 10...we are serving:

Pork Tenderloin with The Sprice Hunter, Grilled Shakers (Garlic, Sea Salt, Onion, Black Pepper, Chille, pepper, Parsley, Brown Sugar, Celery Seed,, Citric Acid.....Smoked on a Grill. (50 Tenderloins, ugg)

Fresh Salmon Smoked ( With Seasoning of Paul Prudhomme;s MAGIC Salmon Seasoning) then smoked on the grill.

Both Gluten Free.

If you have a caterer, just ask him to use those seasonings and you can be sure that it is safe for you to eat at the reception..

Also, a ceasar salad with the salmon.

With the pork, wild rice, fresh tomatoes with motts cheese, with a vinigatette sauce and basil.

Cheeses and pates, fresh fruit, sausages, etc.

ALL GLUTEN FREE

The app I get raves for is cheese stuffed dates wrapped in bacon. The combo of salty/sweet and gooey/crispy is just out of this world! People gobble them down.

I just take a date, remove the pit carefully to keep the date as intact as possible, then put in a small chunk of sharp cheddar (a white variety is prettier). Then wrap that in bacon, secure with a toothpick, and bake until the bacon is done and crispy. The cheese will ooze out a bit, but that's okay.

They are a little tedious, but so yummy!

Those dates sound great!!!!

My mom cooks scallops wrapped in bacon. She buys the largest scallops she can, but I don't known how long she bakes them.

You could also do open face watercress sandwiches on Glutano crisp bread. Yum.

My favorite appetizers are:

grape tomatoes

mozzarella cheese

italian dressing (or any kind that you like) Annie's Naturals makes some gluten-free ones

Take the grape tomatoes and cut in half, then cube up the mozzarella cheese and place one piece of cheese in the middle of a toothpick with the halves of the grape tomatoes around it. It will look like a mini skewer-type thing.

Then place in a dish and drizzle salad dressing over it.

These are a big hit and fun to make.

I am new here so "hi" everyone!

I started on a gluten-free diet last week after almost three years of abdominal pain etc. They tested for celiac but it was negative. I am possibly thinking I might have Gluten Sensitivity Entropathy. Pain started after I had my child. I never had it before then.
