How many times do you go to a party and you cannot eat anything [especially dessert] because there is:
- Gluten
- Dairy
- Eggs
- or some other ingredient you just don’t do well with…
I have been there too so I just bring a dish.
Some great ideas for snacks are:
- Fruit Skewers
- Hummus and Veggies
- Guacamole and Veggies
- Fruit Platter
- Lentil Dip
- Flax Crakers and Pesto Dip
Here are some great dessert ideas:
- Fruit Platter with Mint
- Gluten Free Cookies
- Gluten Free Corn Muffins
Or bring some protein balls for dessert.
Here is my recipe:
MAKES 10 BALLS
1 cup of almonds
1 cup of pitted dates, soaked for 15 minutes or more
2 tablespoons of raw cacao powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
1 teaspoon of water
COMBINE YOUR INGREDIENTS. Combine all ingredients in a high-speed blender. You may need a little more water depending on the consistency of the dough. Add 1 teaspoon of water more if needed.
SHAPE.Roll the dough into balls and place on a tray. Put the tray in the refrigerator to set for one hour.
