Anyone out there able to give me some ideas for a dish to pass for my godsons 1st communion? I am his godmother and they are having a luncheon afterwards. They are serving: BBQ's, Lasagna, Garlic Bread, Veggies/dip, Taco Salad, and potatoe salad, along w/ Cake. I can eat veggies only out of all that. Any ideas out there on what kind of dish I can take to pass that I can eat? I will take my own ham or somehting like that to eat but want/need to contribute.

Thanks for any ideas!

How about a big fruit salad? It's not exactly an inspired idea, but it usually gets eaten!

something in BBQ sauce in the crockpot

meatballs

salsa(could be homemade or storebought) and chips

a great salad with lots of stuff on it, veg., bacon, grilled chicken, etc.

a gelatin in a nice mold with fruit in it

a fruit crisp for dessert- any combo of apple, cherry, blackberry, blueberry, peach-I use my old recipe that calls for oats and flour and sub. a combo of Earthbalance and shortening for the butter and use the standard gluten-free blend of rice, tapioca and potato, plus some sorghum plus gluten-free oats

That gives me an idea:

Suppose you use a mini ice cream scoop to carve out pieces of various melons - watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, etc. Arrange them along with seedless grapes, cubed peaches, etc, or fruit cocktail. Also put in cubes of different colors of jello, all on a bed of whipped topping or pudding/custard. That should be very colorful and attractive, not to mention delicious! Come to think of it, there could be pudding on the bottom and whipped topping on top, but not too much or it will hide all the colorful fruit, unless maybe it's in a deep glass dish.

Great ideas! All of them. Sometimes when I eat simply boring food day after day I forget to think outside the box! Lil' Smokies and the fruit and jello sound great!!!!

thank you!

A big tossed salad to accent the lasagne. I would take apiece of gluten-free lasagne with you.....that way you will not look out of place. Breaded gluten-free chicken nuggets,stuffed mushrooms,bacon wrapped water chesnuts, pierogi casserole with gluten-free noodles of course.Marinated veggies. hth mamaw

      ome value? Is that a typo? I don't see that on any of the test results you post and I've never heard of that one.

      Thanks for the update! It’s great that your GI is being thorough with the follow-up testing—hopefully the endoscopy will give you clearer answers. The EPI diagnosis is interesting; I’ve read that celiac can sometimes lead to pancreatic issues like EPI due to long-term malabsorption or autoimmune overlap. Have they mentioned if your EPI might improve with a gluten-free diet if celiac is confirmed? Wishing you smooth sailing with the endoscopy tomorrow—let us know how it goes.

      Hi again! I just wanted to update here that the GI redid my bloodwork and the ome value is still high so I'm having an endoscopy tomorrow. I also got diagnosed with EPI which seems to possibly be linked to celiac according to Google.

      How many people here are aware that there are 9 types of gluten that Celiacs should be aware of?

      Reishi and cordyceps are immune modulators, they stop you reacting so much/producing antibodies to lectins. Uptake is better when taken as a tincture, you can buy it pre made as a tincture, usually vodka based, or make your own which is much cheaper. You can find instructions online, basically powdered mushrooms soaked in strong alcohol for a month, shaking regularly. Then the strained mushrooms are heated gently in water for 8 hours, strained again and the water then combined with the first alcohol extract. Some of the properties are water soluble, others require alcohol for extraction. It’s also prescribed for fatigue which is a side effect I’m happy to put up with.

      corn: It is the second most commonly genetically modified food on the planet (soy is #1) Genetic modification of foods continues to kill animals in scientific studies. It is an incomplete protein. It is difficult for humans to digest (ever see corn in your stool?) It is high in calories and low in nutrient value It is a new food to the human genome. It is being used as a staple food for our cattle, fish, chicken, and cars. Cows and fish are not designed to eat grain. (Have you ever seen a fish jump out of a lake into a corn field for supper?) When animals eat corn as a staple they have shorter life spans. Corn fed beef is linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and obesity. Grass fed beef is not. Fructose derived from corn is toxic to the liver and contributes to severe health issues. Corn syrup has mercury in it. The list can go on and on and on… Many consumers bow to the alter of “Gluten Free” packaged foods as if the label is a safety net. “Gluten Free” on the package does not mean that the food is healthy. Do not deny yourself the God given right to be healthy.
