You’re Invited to A Gluten-Free Holiday Progressive Dinner Party!
It’s almost the holidays!! Are you as excited (and as yet unprepared) as I am?
This year, Hallie of Daily Bites had a great idea: host a progressive dinner party to provide you with some fabulous recipe ideas for your own holiday tables, making everyone’s life easier! Starting Monday, December 10th, a different blogger will offer up a fantastic recipe each day, moving from course to course one at a time. And you’re all invited!
Even better, each day the hosting blog will offer a cookbook to give away. Each day will feature a different book, so check them all out and be sure to enter to win!
Here’s the lineup (and can you guess which course I’m creating?):
And to pique your interest, here’s a peek at what I’ll be serving up on December 14th (yes, Ricki actually got a blog post done in advance–don’t faint!):

Sounds great, Emma! I love experimenting, too–which is how I began to cook and bake gluten-free in the first place. Sure came in handy when I had to make the switch to 100%!
