Pinterest Pin: Gluten-Free Christmas Dinner Recipes

My first gluten-free Christmas was depressing. Deprived of my favorite holiday recipes I ate a simple plate of rice, turkey, and maybe a vegetable. I had no idea of other festive foods I could enjoy. So I ate my meager plate while watching others enjoy their sumptuous selections.

Well no more sitting on the sidelines while everyone else enjoys the holiday feast. These gluten-free Christmas Dinner Recipes ensure you can savor every bite without worry!

While every effort has been made to curate only gluten-free recipes, always use caution and best judgment when following someone else’s recipe. 

I recommend looking for the “gluten-free” label on items like chicken and beef broth, bacon, barbecue, and sriracha sauces. Although they may not contain flour, some brands can contain gluten. For more information, check out 10 Gluten Free Life Hacks.
