Stephanie! Thank you so much for sharing about this. Yes! Im always embarrassed to say, uh Im Celiac and cant eat gluten without becoming really ill. Your suggestions are so helpful.💚
These are great ideas that I wish I had known about when I first realized my gluten allergy! I can’t imagine what it’s like to be a kid with a gluten allergy. It must be so frustrating. I’ve cried as an adult whenever I haven’t eaten before I left and I show up to a potluck and there’s nothing I can have except for salad, and then I still couldn’t have the dressing sometimes. Now that I have a lactose dairy allergy, it’s even harder. A friend who claims for us during certain times of the year brought over a platter of goodies, and nothing was both gluten and lactose free, and she said well you can give it away. It is so hard. Chocolate usually contains milk, fat, so when people offer to do dairy free options, I will tell them that you can’t just use normal chocolate chips for your gluten-free chocolate chip cookies.
It is so hard with food allergies when eating at other peoples houses. I used to have such a hard time and didn't want to be a bother, but I am finding the more and more I speak up the more people are up for the challenge and WANT to cook for me! It is great! They usually ask lots of questions and I don't mind it at all.
Gluten Free Scalloped Potatoes taste exactly the same as regular. So yum!
Yes, I agree!
