The holidays can be a difficult time for any adult., but especially so for one on a special diet. Thanksgiving dinner was at our house and here are a few things I did to help out:

Make the mashed potatoes with rice milk instead of real milk. No one knew the difference and were surprised when I told them at the end.

Use margarine instead of butter for potatoes or sweet potato recipes.

I make the stuffing with regular bread (no fake bag stuff here). When I made the broth mixture (margarine, chicken broth, celery, poultry seasoning) I put a cup of it aside and added it to some cubed EnerG tapioca bread (or loprofin bread). Owen loves it when I make him stuffing like that.

Dessert is as easy as pie! I modified a recipe from the Apples to Zuchinni book. One can of pumpkin, one box of instant vanilla pudding and 2/3 cup rice milk. Mix until smooth, let sit for 10 minutes. Spoon into mini graham cracker shells (keebler brand, next to the pudding section in your local groccery store). Everyone loved it!
