Cooking for our family can be crazy! Before our family became gfcf I worried about juggling life’s time constraints and dietary restrictions. We ate icky processed or fast food. Now we eat local, organic nutritional homemade "scratch" meals that encourage healthier eating and greatly bless our family. Not to mention saves $$! I would love to hear about your table being full of endless bounties and blessings.

Our first Gluten Free, Casein Free Thanksgiving Dinner
As a child I must admit, that I LOVED the Salisbury Dinner and chicken pot pie. It was a big deal when my mom would stock these in our freezer.
I cannot even begin to imagine heating these puppies up and passing them off for dinner. Things have changed~ for the better. :0)
2010 was our first Thanksgiving dinner that was gluten-free and casein-free. I got to tell ya, it was a piece of cake. I found it no different than any other meal we usually prepare just more dishes than I usually serve for one meal. We are at the end of our 6 months of eating GFCF. I was so surprised how easy it was to convert our favorite recipes. I must confess that I did make a gluten stuffing for my husband and myself.
As we prepared dinner we learned a few things along the way. My oldest is great at baking. She taught her self how to make pie crust and pumpkin pie from scratch. Jeff made GFCF turkey gravy and found out he liked it. :0)
The Thanksgiving bounty for our family table must have been good or ye Indians were starving! (See ad to the left.) Maybe a little of both, who knows.
