Last night, I hosted a dinner party/game night with a group of friends from school. I would declare that it was a rousing success. One of the challenging parts of it, at least for the guests, was that it was potluck, so two couples who don't have any dietary restrictions had to come up with something I could eat for an appetizer and for a dessert. I would have been perfectly fine if they brought something I couldn't eat, particularly since it's my own house and I have plenty I can whip up if needed, but they all said they wanted to try to make something I could eat, which was really thoughtful.
Appetizers were potato skins, topped with bacon and scallions. Yum! One of my favorite appetizers. I made chicken, prosciutto, cheese, and spinach roll-ups for dinner, along with rice and spinach for sides. Dinner was a delicious chocolate cake made with rice flour and topped with chocolate chips and walnuts. Also super yum! Everyone seemed to really enjoy everything, and the red wine that went with everything was the perfect topper to the evening.
And now, it's my first gluten-free St. Patrick's day...no soda bread or Guinness for me. :(
