[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We host a large crowd.

GF - be mindful that some Turkeys are injected with solutions that contain gluten. High quality organic birds are usually safe but check first. Thicken gravy with cornstarch or arrowroot not flour. Serve two stuffings -one traditional with bread and one with rice/grains. Have a GF dessert. If the people are bring dishes ask the GF people to bring their favorite dessert. Make your own salad dressings or buy the GF ones.

Vegan/Vegetarians- try to make vegetarian dishes vegan so it serves both types. Mashed potatoes made with olive oil and roasted garlic are amazing. Roasted butternut squash, and pumpkin are great. Do not mash them. Grilled and charred sweet potatoes are great. Carmelized onions and green beans or roasted brussel sprouts are great. Have a few desserts that are vegan.

We lay things out buffet style and have a toppings section that we call the fixins. This is where the boomers get their butter and bacon bits. I also put out Gorgonzola cheese, dried cranberries, chives, sour cream, different nuts etc.

I get label each dish so people know if it’s gf, vegan or both.

Wow.  I eat butter and bacon bits and I'm not a boomer.  I don't want to go to your party filled with vegan and gluten-free youngsters.[/quote]
