Before I share my favorite foods, I wanted to update you on the sympathy card pack I ordered from Etsy. I was a little nervous about the quality when the box arrived because it looked mass produced, but the cards turned out to be lovely. They’re the perfect size and have a matte finish on the inside, making writing a message easier for this lefty. The stickers to seal the envelope add a finishing touch. The messages are short, simple, and genuine which helps when you are at a loss for words. I personally think they’re a great option for keeping on hand!
My Go-To Entree:
For a LONG time, my favorite entree to take to friends is Balsamic Chicken. It’s easy to have everything on hand, and it’s cooked in the crock pot. The end result is tender chicken that’s both gluten-free and dairy-free. I usually send it with rice, but for this meal I included mashed potatoes.
A Crowd-Pleasing Side:
I also like to send along a salad with the toppings packaged individually. This way, everyone can add what they like. Kids especially like this option! You don’t have to make your own dressing, but if you enjoy doing so, I really like this Maple Mustard Vinaigrette.
An Easy Special Touch:
One super-easy special touch is wrapping reheated rolls in a new kitchen towel. I usually will buy rolls from the freezer section, making it simple to pull them out to add to a meal. I shared some photos below.
Something Sweet:
Finally, the Krusteaz Gluten-Free Brownie Mix is delicious! If you don’t need gluten-free brownies, this basic recipe is the best I’ve found. They turn out well every time! Ice cream or gelato is also an easy dessert with or without brownies.
Let’s Share Ideas:
While this is one of my go-to meals, I’d love to know what you take. I’m always up for trying something new!
Warmly,
Adina
