Superbowl Sunday hasn’t been declared a holiday — at least not yet. But it is a day that that revolves around food and fellowship and is therefore a challenge to the gluten free. My usual technique for surviving a party is to bring one or more safe treats so that I will certainly have something to eat. I always bring “finger food” so that serving spoons will not be a source of cross-contamination.

I certainly have plenty of choices. RecipeZaar lists over 3000 recipes indexed as “gluten free” and “superbowl”. Both Elana’s Pantry and Glutenfreeda offer complete plans for gluten free Superbowl parties. My strategy last year was to volunteer to bring all the chips for the party. This enabled me to protect myself from cross-contamination from unsafe chips. Most chips are gluten free, of course, but there are some villains out there

If these suggestions are not enough for you, here are two video demonstrations that may help with your planning for the big day —- avocado dip and hot wings belong at every Superbowl feast.
