Food Allergy-Friendly Father’s Day

🤣 THIS IS A FUNNY STORY! WHEN MY KIDS WERE LITTLE, THEY WOULD GO THROUGH THEIR TOYS & FIND A TOY THEY REALLY LIKED BUT COULD LIVE WITHOUT FOR FATHER’S DAY & WRAP UP FOR THEIR DAD!
🐛When my son Brandon was about 3, he wanted to know EXACTLY how long Father’s Day was because he didn’t think that he could be away from his special stuffed animal, Dino for very long.

💕This was a HUGE deal as Dino went everywhere with us – I even joked that he was our 3rd child!

✅Just in case you need/would like some options for Father’s Day gifts that aren’t as hard to give away as Dino, here are some Food Allergy-friendly ideas:

A fantastic Father’s Day Celebration with food allergies doesn’t have to be complicated. Simply think about your Dad’s favorite foods/things to do.

Does he like a big breakfast? Possibly lunch or dinner on the grill? Of course: Pizza! See our allergy-friendly Pizza recipe here.

So, now that you are thinking of your Dad’s favorites, it’s easier to plan. As it may often be the case, you may need to substitute ingredients a little bit to accommodate for everyone’s food allergies.

For inspiration, take a look at: Parties with Food Allergies.

Parties

Appetizers – Sliced peppers, carrots, cucumbers in their own cups – can add dip, Fruit Kabobs, GF/Allergy-Friendly Crackers with Cheeses/Dairy-Free Cheese, Melon with Prosciutto ham, Salami & Prosciutto, See: Charcuterie Boards

Main Course – BBQ Chicken, Hot Dogs, Hamburgers or Veggie Kabobs – Definitely FUN foods!

Side Dishes – Baked French Fries, Sweet Potato Fries or Carrot Fries, Homemade Veggie (or Meat) Nachos

Dessert – Ice Cream Pops (we like Chloe’s Soft Serve Fruit Pops), could make a Fruit Crumble – use any fruits you like and are safe, add a Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Nut-free Crumble, Buy individual cupcakes in their own jars: Mo’Pweeze Cupcakes or Divvies Allergy-Friendly Cookies
