Ever since I was little, I always remembered having an amazing Holiday treat tray at our family gatherings.
My grandma would make the most delicious cookies and candies and then put them on a festive plate for all of us to snack on BEFORE dinner.
I always thought it was amazing that we got the eat off of the treat tray and munch on the candy in the snowman candy bowls before we had our dinner. That’s every kids dream, right?
For most of my adult life, I have made my own special treat trays to bring to family gatherings and to take to work to share with coworkers. I have a day each year where all I do is bake and make candies.
It’s safe to say that’s one of my favorite days of the year! I put on my Christmas apron, turn on the Christmas tunes, and make ALL the treats I can think of.
Below are some of the treats I add to my Holiday treat tray every year. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family does!

A: Yes, you may experience some weight loss as a consequence of cutting out gluten and dairy. That's because such an elimination diet is usually based on healthy, fresh, whole foods. When you reduce the consumption of packaged and processed foods, weight management becomes easy.
A gluten-free casein-free diet (GFCF diet), also known as a gluten-free dairy-free diet (GFDF diet), is a diet that does not include gluten (found most often in wheat, barley, and rye), and casein (found most often in milk and dairy products).
The best way to ensure that your diet is gluten and dairy-free is to eat whole foods. Fruits, vegetables, meats, and grains like quinoa, rice, and buckwheat are all naturally gluten and dairy-free. Planning your meals in advance can help you avoid the temptation to eat foods that contain gluten and dairy.
Improved nutrient absorption your body will be able to better process what you are eating, and get more out of the good stuff. Weight regulation eliminating gluten assists many sufferers return to their natural weight. Reduced flatulence, belching and bloating need we say more?
Others are lactose intolerant, which results from an enzyme deficiency that makes it impossible to break down the lactose (a sugar found in dairy) in one's system. People with one or both of these conditions don't necessarily need to avoid eggs as they are devoid of milk proteins and lactose. Eggs are also gluten free.
The intestines make up most of the middle and lower abdomen, so “gluten belly” will look like any other type of lower digestive tract bloating. However, if bloating seems to be a regular or constant problem, that's a possible sign that it may be due to gluten intolerance.
It's common to feel constantly hungry during your first several weeks without gluten. You may want to eat all the time. Your body hasn't been able to absorb food properly for a while. So once it can, it'll try to make up for the deficit.
You can eat any foods that do not contain gluten and dairy. These include all fruits and vegetables, meat, chicken, fish, legumes, corn, quinoa, rice, legumes, and nuts. Be sure to read ingredient labels on packaged foods and look for products labeled "gluten and dairy-free".
In general, avoid the following foods if you have celiac disease: Cereals, breads, or other grain products that include wheat, rye, barley, or oats. This includes white or whole-wheat flour (including cookies, crackers, cakes, and most other baked goods), semolina, couscous, bread crumbs, most pastas, and malt.
Can you go gluten-free to lose weight? People who adopt a gluten-free diet often lose weight, but it's usually because they also cut out a lot of processed foods and refined carbohydrates that contain gluten.
Contrary to what some believe, eggs are not dairy products. Foods are only considered dairy products when they are produced from the milk of mammals. Eggs are laid by birds, who are not mammals and do not produce milk.
If you're vegan or have a dairy intolerance, we have good news: peanut butter is both dairy-free and gluten-free! Most peanut butter is made from peanuts, salt, palm oil, or hydrogenated vegetable oil (Processed peanut butter may contain some added sugars, too).
Plain, fresh cuts of meat, including beef, poultry (chicken, turkey, etc), rabbit, lamb and fish/seafood meat, are all gluten-free. However, be careful with breaded or floured meats, which typically contain wheat and therefore gluten.
Answer. Yes, people with celiac disease frequently have lactose intolerance, especially upon diagnosis. Once a gluten-free diet is followed and the intestine heals properly, some people are able to produce the lactase enzyme that breaks down lactose, and tolerate dairy foods again. However, some stay lactose intolerant ...
How do I eat gluten free and dairy free on a budget?
Try to eat as much naturally gluten free food as possible. Fruit, yogurts, chia pudding, oatmeal (if you can tolerate oats), egg, potatoes, lettuce wrapped items, meat and veggies, etc.
