Search for "gluten" in files and you'll find a document with a number of recipes.

Generally, if you do recipes that don't have bread or flour in them, you'll be safe. Salads would be OK, but read the ingredients on everything (including seasoning) carefully. (The sweet sprinkles have flour in them, so they're not gluten free.)There's an easy peanut butter cookie recipe in All the Best that's gluten free: 1 egg, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup peanut butter. Combine. Press onto stone using cookie press. Bake at 350ºF 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.

thanks, that's a good start for me - if anyone has any more that would be great.

Gluten is not just wheat intolerance. It also includes oats, rye, barley, spelt. My son is gluten free/casein free so I know all about reading ingredients. Whatever you fix will not have the same texture (or taste) so I would stay away from anything that would originally have bread.

The Greek Cheese Torta would be a great gluten free appetizer - just have some veggies for dipping too.

The Deluxe Cheeseburger Salad would be good - just have her skip the croutons.

Or any other salad.

For dessert, you could do fruit and some kind of dip.....the cool and creamy chocolate fondue is yummy - with strawberries and apples.

Gluten FreeI just did a demonstration at a Health Food store on Gluten free. I made pizzas that were gluten free. I did use mozzerella cheese, which can be a problem for people who can't eat gluten. They can be dairy sensitive too. I bought gluten free pizza dough from the health food store. Bob's Mill is an excellent brand and it tasted great. I pre-cooked the crusts for easy assembly at the store. I used organic tomato sauce and added italian seasonings. I then minced a pod of garlic on the crust. Then cut up veges to add to the pizza. ( bell peppers in different colors looked cute cut in shapes with the PC creative cutters set-the kids liked them) Then cheese. I took a toaster oven and cooked the pizzas. It was a hit. There are many items that are gluten free at the health food stores. Flours for cookies, biscuits, and breads. Good luck.. I hope you see this!! Ginger
You do have to be careful about your choices... they must be free of gluten You can google "gluten free" and see websites that give you choices.
