Food-centric holidays, like Thanksgiving are tough for food allergy sufferers.
I don’t have food allergies myself, but my daughter is allergic to dairy, peanuts, and eggs. As a amily, we try to eat the way she does, so she stays safe and doesn’t feel left out.
Most of the time, I choose recipes that are off the beaten path because most traditional dishes are laden with non allergy friendly ingredients. I’ve been craving classic dishes for this year’s Thanksgiving table though, so I’ve done some internet trolling to find some good classic or semi-classic allergy friendly recipes.
Turkey is pretty easy to make allergy friendly. Just use non-dairy butter or olive oil, etc. The rest of the dishes however, are a little trickier.
Whether you suffer from food allergies yourself, or someone at your holiday table does, you don’t have to go without all of your favorite dishes. Hopefully this list will help you make your table safe and delicious for all of your guests.
They are all gluten free, egg free, dairy free, and peanut free! Enjoy!
