There will also be many products to sample from Authentic Foods, Katz Gluten Free and Edward and sons. Go to each of their web sites and see what products you might be interested in sampling.  These are all excellent GF companies.

 

 

Please remember to bring a GF dish to share after the meeting for lunch. We will be tasting samples all morning before lunch ,so be creative while bring salads, vegetables, meat dishes, etc. Please bring 25 copies of the recipe or the package you made your dish from.  Everyone can then see if the dish contains ingredients they maybe allergic to and you will be sharing your recipe with other celiacs.
