I am a big 'dip' person.....

One of my favorites is the 7layer/Mexican dip. Refried beans, sour cream mixed w/taco seasoning packet (I use McCormicks), then whatever toppings you like....guacamole, tomatoes, jalapenos, black olives, lettuce, etc...then I always top with shredded cheese and green onions. Serve with tortilla chips.

Another variation of that is to use old bay seasoning (1 tbs) with cream cheese (2 packages, softened), and mayo (2 tbs). Mix together, place in serving dish, and then add your favorite toppings. I did tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, and green onions. Serve with tortilla chips.

Shrimp cocktail is always a good standby. Serve with cocktail sauce.

hickory farms has a big sale going on and a lot of their cheeses and sausages are gluten free. Always a hit at my house. serve the cheese/sausage together or get the little sausages and have different mustards or sauces. Don't put out crackers :)

One of my favorites is a fresh bean/salsa dip-this makes a huge batch but it goes SOOO fast. Use one can diced tomatoes, one can shoepeg corn, black beans/kidney beans/red beans/black eyed peas, red/green bell peppers, red/green onions, little bit of cilantro, (I also use the tomatoes, corn, at least two types of beans, at least one type of bell pepper, one type of onions, and cilantro. after that, its whatever I happen to have!) Add a small amount of salsa and some italian dressing (1/2 c? I don't know). (I use more dressing than salsa, though). Mix up and chill in fridge. I always taste it once the flavors have mixed together and end up adding more dressing. The salsa and italian dressing just gives it a little kick! Serve with tortilla chips. I often use the "scoops" bc sometimes it'll be a bit runny. Warning-this stuff is ADDICTIVE.

You could either do a store bought sour cream-based (gluten-free, of course) dip and serve with fresh veggies, or buy sour cream and I like to add my own spices and make it. I have a garlic and peppercorn "rub" from Pampered Chef that I discovered is great as a dip.

Hope that maybe one of these helps! Have a very happy New Years!

One thing I made for a holiday party was a cheese and noodle dish that went over VERY well. I used rice lasagna noodles, and a mixture of mozzerella, munster and a bit of romano cheeses. Also mixed sugar, cinnamon, and a tiny bit of cloves and mace. I think almost any cheese mixture would do - I used what I had in the fridge.

Did several layers of the cheese mixture, boiled noodles and sugar/spice mix in a baking dish the night before. Just before serving I popped it in the oven for a couple of minutes until the cheese melted and cut it in bite sized "squares" and served with toothpicks. Made two big trays of this and there wasn't any left over. It tasted good cold also, so I could even have cooked and cut it up the night before. And it was a bit more filling than chips and dip.

I make a smoked salmon ball. Sorry, I don't measure exactly, but here's what I do. Mix an 8 oz package of Chevre (goat cream cheese) in a bowl with a little finely chopped onion and a splash of lemon juice. Then take about 4 oz of smoked salmon and put it in the food processor until it is very finely chopped up. Mix in with the cheese mixture. You might need more salmon. I keep mixing until the ball seems "right". Roll it in chopped pecans or walnuts. Refrigerate for a couple of hours. Serve with rice crackers.

Another favorite in my husband's family is to take a brick of cream cheese, throw a bunch of shrimp on top and then smother it with cocktail sauce. Serve with rice crackers.

And I make "Puppy Chow" with Corn and Rice Crunchems. Recipe widely available. I use almond butter instead of peanut butter and it goes over really well.

I'm a big dip person as well - works great with a load of fresh, raw veggies - spicy garlic hummus, black bean dip with sundried tomatoes, and raw ranch dressing are my favorites. Sauteed mushrooms are also good. :-)

hahaha! you say that the day I'm making cookies with 1 cup of margerine (to 3.5 cups flour). I want to decorate them, but probably won't eat more than two or three! ;-)

there's so many varieities of hummus, unless you detest garbanzo beans, I'll bet you can find one you like. :-)

      @GeoPeanut, milk is one of the better sources of iodine. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. Many people find that a low iodine diet helps them avoid dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks. So, maybe the fact that you have limited your dairy intake of late is helping with that.

      Hi, I'm new here. Sorry for your troubles.herenis a thought to mull over. I recently was diagnosed with celiac disease,  and hashimoto's and dermatitis herpetiformis after getting covid 19. I eat butter, and 1/2 cup of Nancy's yogurt daily. I stopped all other dairy and  dermatitis herpetiformis is gone! I also make grass fed beef bone broth to help with myopathy that has occurred.

      Welcome to the forum, @KRipple! Sorry to hear of all your husband's health problems. I can only imagine how anxious this makes you as when our spouse suffers we hurt right along with them. Can you post the results from the Celiac blood testing for us to look at? We would need the names of the tests run, the numeric results and (this is important) the reference ranges for each test used to establish high/low/negative/positive. Different labs use different rating scales so this is why I ask for this. There aren't industry standards. Has your husband seen any improvement from eliminating gluten from his diet? If your husband had any positive results from his celiac blood antibody testing, this is likely what triggered the consult with a  GI doc for an endoscopy. During the endoscopy, the GI doc will likely biopsy the lining of the small bowel lining to check for the damage caused by celiac disease. This would be for confirmation of the results of the blood tests and is considered the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. But here is some difficult information I have for you. If your husband has been gluten free already for months leading up to the endoscopy/biopsy, it will likely invalidate the biopsy and result in a false negative. Starting the gluten free diet now will allow the lining of the small bowel to begin healing and if enough healing takes place before the biopsy happens, there will be no damage to see. How far out is the endoscopy scheduled for? There still may be time for your husband to go back on gluten, what we call a "gluten challenge" to ensure valid test results.

      Ive read articles that there is stage 2 research being conducted for drugs that will limit damage to celiacs through cross contamination- how close are they to this will there be enough funding to create a mainstream drug?

      Hello, My husband has had issues with really bad diarreah for over nine months now. In mid November, he went to the doctor for what they thought was a bad cold, which two weeks later was diagnosed as bronchitis. A week later, in December, I had to take him back to urgent care and from there, to the emergency room cause his vitals were too low. They said he was having an Addisionan crisis and he spent five days in the ICU. Since my husband has Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome Type II (type 1 diabetes, Addison's and Hashimoto's), I fought for a blood test to determine if he had Celiacs. Given the results of the test, he was told to go to a gastro for an endoscopy. It took two months to get his first appointment with the gastro. Still waiting for the endoscopy appointment. He stopped eating gluten in the hospital and has followed a gluten-free diet since. His diarreah continues to be as bad as before he stopped eating gluten. Still has a horrible cough that makes him hack. His energy is so depleted he pretty much goes to work, comes home and goes lie in bed. He is having issues regulating body temperature. He is barely eating (he's lost 20 pounds since mid-December). Body aches. Totally run down. He has been taking more prednisone lately to try to counter the symptoms.  Today, we went to his endo to discuss these things. She said to continue taking increased amount of prednisone (even though I explained that the increased dosage is only allowing him to do the bare minimum). According to the endo, this is all related to Celiacs. I am concerned because I know that both Celiacs and Addison's can have similar symptoms, but don't know if he would still be having these many symptoms (worsening, at that) related to the Celiac's after stopping gluten two months ago. If anyone in this group has a combination of Celiacs and Addison's, could you please share your experience? I am really concerned and am feeling frustrated. His primary care provider and endocrinologist don't seem to consider this serious enough to warrant prompt attention, and we'll see about the gastro.  Thanks.
