Gluten Free Alternatives

Hi,
We are going camping and cooking for a group of people, one of which is Gltuen Intolerant and a couple of Vegetarians.
I'm not too concerned about the Veggies but I don't have any experience of gluten free. I was hoping that if I posted our menu, there would be people who could give me some ideas of what I need to exchange for the Gluten Free stuff...

So here it is:

BREAKFAST:
Cereals, fruit, possibly toast
Fry up

LUNCHES:
Sandwiches, crisps, fruit, choc bar

MAIN MEAL:
Bacon & tomato Pasta
Sweet & Sour Chicken & rice
Bangers & Mash, beans & gravy
Chicken Curry, rice & naan
Spaghetti Bolognaise
Roast Chicken, New potatoes & Salad

SUPPER:
Cake
Hotdogs
Muffins/ brownies
Flapjack
Donuts
Burgers

Of course, I'm happy for any veggie alternatives too..

Thanks

    QUOTE=FrankieM;discussion/1783339]Hi,
    We are going camping and cooking for a group of people, one of which is Gltuen Intolerant and a couple of Vegetarians.
    I'm not too concerned about the Veggies but I don't have any experience of gluten free. I was hoping that if I posted our menu, there would be people who could give me some ideas of what I need to exchange for the Gluten Free stuff...

    So here it is:

    BREAKFAST:
    Cereals, fruit, possibly toast - sainsburys own brand cereals have 'suitable for coeliacs' on some of them, rice pop, choco rice pops, corn flakes and frosted flakes i think.
    Fry up - tesco sell gluten free sausages in most stores, bacon is gluten free, heinz baked beans are gluten, eggs are gluten free, just have to minus the toast unless u get gluten free bread. just be careful not to cook gluten free sausages and normal ones together, the gluten can contaminate.

    LUNCHES:
    Sandwiches, crisps, fruit, choc bar - sandwiches, ask them to supply there own, they will get gf buns/bread in prescription, 99% of walkers crisps says 'suitable for coeliacs' on the back, think worcester sauce arent.fruit is fine, choc bar check cadburys website, quite a few things are gluten free. most haribo are gluten free too as sweets


    MAIN MEAL:
    Bacon & tomato Pasta - if its a sauce, check its gluten free, bacon is fine, again ask them to bring some gluten free pasta off prescription. but will need cooking first or wash pan so dont contaminate,

    Sweet & Sour Chicken & rice - rice is gluten free, chicken is gluten free, check which sauce you get, should say on the back if it contains gluten

    Bangers & Mash, beans & gravy - gluten free sausages as before from tesco, potato is gluten free, heinz beans gluten free, gravy unfortunately not, might just have to have the beans or tomato ketchup

    Chicken Curry, rice & naan - chicken gluten free, rice gluten freee, gluten free naan bread available, might be better with poppadoms - they are gluten free

    Spaghetti Bolognaise - gluten free pasta needed as above, ragu sauces are gluten free, mince meat is gluten free

    Roast Chicken, New potatoes & Salad - chicken gluten free, potatoes gluten free, salad gluten free, just stuff like salad cream u need check

    SUPPER:
    Cake - - you could make rice crispy cakes before you go, or cornflake cakes, using the cereal from tesco, some marshmellows are gluten free too for decoration

    Hotdogs - sainsburys own brand tinned hot dogs say 'suitable for coeliacs' just make sure you check tin, need gf bread tho

    Muffins/ brownies - again gluten free section of supermarket or bake some? just use gluten free flour

    Flapjack - attempted to make them, not good.

    Donuts - again you might be better baking some little fairy cakes or something, with gf flour

    Burgers - burgers need to be 100% beef to be gluten free, birds eye 100% beef should be fine, just check the pack doesnt say any wheat is added in the ingredients

    Of course, I'm happy for any veggie alternatives too..

    Thanks[/QUOTE]
