The Bottom Line of Gluten Free Party Food and Having an Awesome Gluten Free Holiday Season

I know from experience that for people with celiac disease, food allergies or dietary restrictions, the holiday season can be, well, awkward. A lot of times, holidays are full of parties and dinners where you don't have anything to eat. And sometimes, that can make you feel like the odd one of out.

That's why, this year, I'm challenging YOU (and myself!) to make your holiday season extra tasty, whether it's your first year eating gluten free during the holidays or your twentieth. Try out a new gluten freesnack recipe. Bring a gluten free appetizer to a party and watch people's minds get toootallyblown by how good gluten free food can be! Heck, you could even throw your own 100%gluten free holiday party. There are plenty of delicious, gluten free possibilities for the next few months!
