Wheat-Free Recipes for a March Show - Any Ideas?

[pamperedinAlaska]

Hello, I have a show scheduled in March that needs to be "wheat-free". They want me to come up with new/PC recipes. Any good ideas? I think it's no nuts too. She can do Rice based. I thought of doing a Spa party, but still need some good food ideas. I guess I could do salads, maybe the Jerk Chicken. Has anyone made the salmon cakes?

Thanks Ginger, have you tried them? I was hoping for proven recipes since I haven't dabbled in gluten-free yet. Do the brownies taste like normal flour brownies?

They taste a little different & the consistentcy is different. I have a friend & her mom needs Gluten Free, she made a chocolate cake & it came out pretty good. Bottom line...if the person needs this type of food she will be happy you tried it & she knows its better than nothing. There is also a HUGE site, which of course I cant remember the name, but it has TONS of stuff. HTH

BTW...I made the Harvest Chicken Salad for her ( without the crutons) & she LOVED it! Also you could do something with Spaghetti Squash...cooks right up in the microwave ( show those stones) then maybe mix Stir Fry Veggies & put it all together maybe with some chicken....

If you can do nuts, the Easy Peanut Butter Presses from All The Best are gluten free. They're super easy!

Great ideas gals..I bumped this up so other's could see it. There really are alot of gluten-free recipes, it's just a little more "cooking out of the box".

I did a gluten free show for a friend who has celiac disease - I made the chicken tortilla soup from the healthy cookbook ( do you know which one I mean? Two weeks til baby, and my brain is so on vaca....)

It was FABULOUS and a big success, party wise.

Good luck!

You know, I was just thinking & I remember my friend can have the Quaker Rice Cakes, so I wonder if you can make rice krispie treats & you get to use the Cookware, I have to go check marshmallows...

I was just going to suggest the Harvest Chicken Salad w/o the Croutons...it's FABULOUS!!!
