13 Gluten Free Game Day Recipes for 2021

by Leave a Comment

One of my favorite times of year is gathering with family or friends to watch the Super Bowl. And of course, no party is complete without an assortment of food…especially food that is safe for Celiacs or gluten-intolerant! To celebrate, I’ve round up 13 (well, I couldn’t resist so it’s actually 14!) of my favorite gluten free game day appetizers.

When I think of making appetizers that a group of people will be sharing, I aim to create something that won’t be cross-contaminated with gluten. So if I have a dip, I make sure there are only gluten free crackers alongside it. There is nothing worse than creating something gluten free only to have it accidentally cross-contaminated by someone dipping a cracker into a dip.

Obviously, it would be best to serve a dip where you spoon it out on your own plate to dip, but there’s always that one person…

Whether you’re staying at home, or gathering with a few friends or family, here are a few gluten free game day recipes from dips, to heavy appetizer, to sweets, to soups, for a full and happy tummy.
