Gluten-Free March Madness Party Recipe Ideas
Whether you're the one with a gluten intolerance, or you're the host to a guest with a gluten intolerance, you're probably freaking out right now about finding tasty enough gluten-free recipes for your March Madness party. But fret not, there are tons of super yummy game day snacks out there that totally avoid glutenous ingredients.
With today's culinary world, there are so many ways around using grain. With substitutes like nut and rice flours, you can easily find ways to make your favorite dishes without gluten — and without even noticing the taste difference.
But to make it easier for you, I've put together some of my favorite gluten-free recipes. So now all you have to do is clean out your couch so that when your guests arrive for the big game day, they're not the ones to find your missing underpants and stag Cheetos that you've long since neglected between couch cushions. If that suggestion struck close to home, you might want to also consider lighting a few candles before your guests arrive, because while you're not hosting a black tie event, it's always good to practice your adult hosting skills. Bon appetit!
