After Thanksgiving Recovery

We hope you had a great gluten free Thanksgiving experience. We're curious as to how your pies went over for the holiday. To better serve you next year, please take a quick 4 question survey about your pie experience. Also, we had a few complaints about the Haven on Earth apple pies not being completely baked in the center. According to the vendor their pies were cooked and ready to serve. We apologize for their inconsistency.
    Gluten Free Potluck 
    Gluten-Free Holiday Party: December 4, 2011 Sunday  2:00 p.m.—4:00 p.m at the home of Kathe & Bill Hughes in Cameron Park. 

    They ask you bring your cheerful selves and a gluten-free holiday dish to share.  Include your recipe or prepared food package so that those folks with additional food allergies can make informed choices.  Kathe will provide a roast turkey and beverages.                     
     
    Please RSVP to Kathe at 530 672-1104 or kathehughes@sbcglobal.net  Include the word “Celiac” in your e-mail subject line.

    Chili Chat
    It's getting colder outside, so why not make up a big batch of chili.  It's a great slow cooker meal, great for holiday gatherings, or Sunday Football. Plus there's almost always leftovers for some evenings during the week when you don't want to cook.  Experiment with beans or vegetables you might not normally use. Have you considered all the possibilities? This is not a complete list, but to get you thinking....   
    • Adzuki Beans
    • Black Beans
    • Black-eyed peas
    • Fava Beans
    • Butter Beans
    • Cannellini Beans
    • Garbanzo Beans
    • Great Northern Beans
    • Italian Beans
    • Kidney Beans
    • Lentils
    • Lima Beans
    • Mung Beans
    • Navy Beans
    • Pinto Beans
    • Split Peas
    • White Beans
    You can also make your meat option stretch a little further by mixing in TVP (Textured Vegetable Protein) and it's also a great source of fiber and protein.
