For the twin’s second birthday party we decided to have a small party with family at our house. To make life easier I decided to make the whole party Gluten Free. My goal was to provide food so yummy no one would know or care that it was all Gluten Free.
We had 16 people including 7 kids at the party. It was supposed to last an hour and half. Three hours later we moved the party to a local restaurant so we could eat lunch!
What I Served:
– Goldfish Puffs
– Gluten Free pretzel sticks
– A vegetable tray with GF ranch dressing
– Gluten Free cupcakes – used Betty Crocker’s mix and followed these instructions for baking
– GF Tortillas chips
– Sausage Cheese Dip – recipe below
The party was a hit! Everyone ate lots of food. The cupcakes were downed by all and no one seemed to bat an eye that it was all Gluten Free. Success!
Sausage Cheese Dip
What You Need
1 lb GF sausage
1 lb Velveeta cheese
1 can of Ro-Tel tomatoes
How To Make It
Cook sausage in a skillet. Cut up Velveeta cheese and put into a crock pot ( I used our 3 qt). Pour in the drained can of Ro-Tel and the cooked sausage. Set the crock pot to low and let cook for at least an hour to allow cheese to melt. Stir occasionally to mix. Serve with tortilla chips.
We barely had any of this yummy dip left. Everyone raved about it and asked for the recipe. It is so simple to make. This will easily become a staple at future parties!
The party was 100% Gluten Free and everyone from 2 years old to 76 were happy!

Yay for gluten-free parties! When we did our big housewarming BBQ I decided to do everything GF (aside from the buns for the pork due to the expense). I still get compliments from friends who say they wouldn’t have even known it was a GF party if they didn’t know I was GF š
