Question about GF Bread

Hi Brittany,

Looks like you've got some really great suggestions so far. I don't really have anything to add other than...Welcome!! You are a special gal to be doing this for your boyfriend. I hope he knows how lucky he is. If he doesn't - make sure you tell him. If he needs proof - have him come here and see it for himself Smile

heheheheee Truly, support from loved ones is extremely important. Without the support of Peg [my wife], I would not be where I am today!

It all sounds very good! Now...what time is that party? I assume dress will be casual. We'd hate to come and be over dressed! LOL!!!!

Good luck! Let us know how it turns out.

The more the merrier! Wink

I was acutally thinking about serving mexican food. There are these really great taquitos that you can buy in bulk at wal-mart or pretty much any grocery store that I know he can eat. I've had them myself and they are quite tastey.

As for the alcohol issue, he doesn't drink so that's not a big deal.

Nachos are a great idea!

I'd be very leary of any processed food without checking into them further. I don't know anything about that brand, but I would call the company to make sure.

Have you read the label to check the ingredients?

He's eaten the taquitos before with no problems. I haven't actually checked the ingredients list but I know they're made with corn tortillas instead of flour.

Is there anything like "modified food starch", "natural flavors", "caramel coloring"? Those are some of the big hidden gluten offenders.

I don't have the box they came in anymore (just a ziploc bag), but he steers clear of natural/artificial flavor and caramel colors so I'm pretty sure they aren't included in them.

Walmart have started labeling their foods that are GF so you might be in luck. Very Happy
