Hello,

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. :D

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.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!
    • Scott Adams
      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
