A Gluten Free Thanksgiving

Back in the day, no one had even heard of the word "gluten." In today's world every one of us knows someone that lives gluten free.  It's a comedy trying to get a menu together for my family's Thanksgiving menu.  In our group of 13, we have Gluten Free, Sugar Free, Salt Free, Dairy Free and Low FodMap diet people. Then there is Mr. Shop This - he'll eat anything!  This year, we aim to please everyone, so it will be a cornucopia of flavors and options for all. 

HERE: 19 Great Gluten Free Recipes Perfect for Your Thanksgiving Day Feast

Caramel Pumpkin Pie 

I like pretty food, and typically Pumpkin Pie is not exactly beautiful. But this pie is very easy on the eyes.

Gluten Free Canteen 

Gluten-Free Cornbread Stuffing with Chestnuts, Leeks, and Chanterelles
This dish look so good, I bet you won't even know it is missing gluten. Other types of mushrooms can be substituted for the Chanterelles. Love the bright color of this dish.
