Having folks for Superbowl Sunday. Originally we were going to make fajitas, chips/salsa, tortilla soup, etc. Well...MAJOR wrench thrown in the works. Friend of mine's husband had MAJOR allergic reaction on Sunday - not sure exactly what caused it yet....rushed to ER, 4 doses of epipen, hives head to toe....it was MAJOR, could have died.

ANYWAY...he cannot have ANYTHING he had the morning.....dairy, pork, tomatoes, or black pepper. (and of course, needs ot be gluten free for me, and soy free for her daughter as well!!!)

We're thinking wings....but not sure what else to do with it....HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

How terrible for him. Is your friend doing okay now?

As far as what to serve - wouldn't wings require tomato in the sauce???

What about small sandwiches with varied fillings - without cheese, of course - like chicken or tuna salad, sliced meats, etc. With lettuce, mustard, mayo. Meat rolled in corn tortillas.

I make a finger food that's tuna or salmon salad spread on thin-sliced zucchini or cucumber.

Hope this helps some - other's may have better suggestions.

No. Wings don't need tomatoes. You fry chicken wings, toss in hot sauce, bake, then retoss in hot sauce. The hot sauce is ALL peppers, no tomatoes.

THANKS for the suggestions.

I'm almost debating about making a pot roast or something because of it! LOL :D Not really party food.

What about picnic type foods, like deviled eggs, potato salad, pasta salad? I use black pepper in all those, but you could easily just omit it. I'm also dairy free, so all those things are dairy free, too.

You could also make honey mustard wings--I make my own honey mustard from a combo of honey, mustard, and mayo--very easy and tastes like restaurant style.

Good luck!

Well, he can't have eggs either (his reaction was to an omlet who had all those things in it - should have mentioned that). So, I also cannot use eggs in ANYTHING I cook.

The more I think about it, the more I'm liking the pot roast idea, if I can find a gluten free beef broth to use. Or maybe stew. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Gosh my brain just will not work.

((hugs)) for your friend! I'm so glad that he is ok! Very scary!!

I would just go for something like stew or pot roast that can be thrown in the crockpot and be safe for everyone eating.

Stew sounds like a good idea - especially in a crock pot - people could easily serve themselves.

If he reacted to the tomatoes, I wouldn't serve any food with hot pepper or bell pepper, as they are in the same food family - just to be on the safe side.

Can you all eat corn? Small corn-on-the cobs with dairy-free margarine or even olive oil.

..., if I can find a gluten free beef broth to use.

An alternative to commercial broth:

Brown the meat in a skillet with a bit of oil (don't burn). After removing the meat, add some water to the skillet to loosen the brownings - add water to equal the amount of liquid you would normally put in the crockpot.

Hubby & I have been mulling this over.

Here's the menu -

Wings w/ Blue Cheese & Ranch (we're going to keep in the bottle so he's not tempted to dip). When I mentioned wings, the guy said "great" so he's okay with not dipping.

Veggie Tray - we're going to leave the dips in the bottle again, so not tempted, probably use the same ones as for the wings.

Chips

Hot Roast Beef Sandwiches (the broth, trying to determine what I'll do, but it will work). We have a deli near us that has GREAT Roast beef, so I'll be able to use that - just need to make sure it doesn't have pepper on it.)

I'm going to have his wife bring bread he can eat, and I'm going to make GFPantry's French Bread for me. I might even just shape it in roll shapes too.

Then, dessert will be the Wacky Cake (testing again on Saturday in Cupcake form, if it turns out, I'll have the cupcakes to serve).

I made the best pot roast ever using a gluten free beef broth. I used Pacific Natural Foods beef broth...I found :rolleyes: the broth in the organic section of Kroger groceries. Good luck! Hope the best team wins.

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
