My family agreed to a gluten-free thanksgiving this year!! (Of course since I'm cooking it they didn't have to MUCH choice)

So here's my menu so far...

Turkey

Ham

Corn

Carrots

gluten-free Pasta Salad

Peas

(we have odd foods for turkey day)

So here's my question!

Any ideas on easy to make foods for a family of 6?

Anyone else doing a gluten-free thanksgiving?

How do you handle the holidays?

My Christmas will probably NOT be gluten-free as I'll be home home and no one in my extended family understands Celiac, and most of them think I'm just spoiled....

Thanks everyone!!

What about gluten-free corn bread? There are mixes that are good and easy?

Baked yams/sweet potatoes? I do mine with ginger, but you could do the traditional-ish marshmallow thing.

Black bean mango salad?

brazillian cheese rolls?

I'm so excited for you - it is nice to have everything gluten-free and not worry.

You have a great menu and others have given great ideas. Our Thanksgiving

dinner wouldn't be complete without cranberry sauce, pumpkin pies and turkey and

stuffing w/ gravy. All new gluten-free this year of course. I'm hoping it will be just

as yummy!

Have a great time cooking and showing off for your family. I hope they come

around and see you aren't spoiled.

Here's an article in today's NYTimes about gluten-free Thanksgiving. There are some pretty decent looking recipes.

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By Ryangf · Posted

      I haven’t had any noticeable reactions to salt so I will continue using it. I think I just freaked out when I realized this but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort- so thanks!

      Abscesses on legs

      By plumbago · Posted

      Ok, thanks. I'm so glad to hear you are in the hands of a dermatologist. I hope he/she has given you 1) a diagnosis; and 2) a plan of care with a couple of options so that you have buy-in and comfort with it. I have some ideas, but not having seen the abscesses or you in person, it doesn't really make sense for me to kind of ... speculate further. But your question was regarding gluten, and you've gotten a couple of other follow up questions and answers that are good, including the idea to keep a food diary. Let us know if we can help further or answer any other questions. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds very painful.

      Abscesses on legs

      By LookingForAnswers101 · Posted

      @plumbago They appear as boils. They are big, like the size of a nickel--quarter, and they hurt when I touch them. I have gone to the same derm for them over and over and she thinks my body is colonized by a bacteria, but even after using hibiclens all over my body they come back.

      Abscesses on legs

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the gluten-free community! It’s great to have you here. While gluten sensitivity or celiac disease can indeed cause skin issues, such as dermatitis herpetiformis (a blistering rash), abscesses in areas like the lower buttocks or thighs are less commonly linked directly to gluten. However, chronic abscesses could be a sign of an underlying immune or inflammatory condition, which might be worth discussing with a healthcare professional. Some people with gluten-related disorders also experience secondary issues like bacterial overgrowth or immune dysregulation, which could potentially contribute to recurrent infections. It’s always a good idea to explore all possible causes, including gluten sensitivity, with your doctor. In the meantime, keeping a food and symptom diary might help identify any patterns. Wishing you the best on your health journey!

      You say you have gluten sensitivity? Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or do you refer to NCGS?
