lunabee34My mom has been sick for awhile, and she had a colonoscopy/endoscopy last week. They took biopsies, and she has celiac disease.
I will do my own research, but I want to do some crowd-sourcing from you guys because I know several of you have extensive knowledge.
Do you have any recipe, product, websites, cookbook recs I can pass along?
We are hosting Thanksgiving, and I want to show her that gluten free can be good, tasty, and easy.
Gluten comes from wheat, right? So gluten free foods include meats and vegetables, right? (I am so ignorant about this issue; I feel like I'm asking stupidly dumbass questions)
Mom is really upset, and I suspect that part of it is because she's worried that my dad won't be supportive and she'll be stuck having to cook/be around a lot of food she can't eat. :/
Gonna go call her now; she sent out a mass email to the family.
Anything you can tell me is appreciated.
ETA: I have totally sold my dad short. He has actually been super supportive and told mom that the whole household would be gluten free and that they were doing it together. I kind of feel like an ass for assuming he'd be an ass about it, but past behavior seemed to indicate that he would. Whew!
