My Top Tips For Surviving the Holiday Season with Food Allergies
The holidays are a time to gather with family, enjoy delicious food, and make lasting memories. But when food allergies are involved, it can feel overwhelming to make sure everyone is safe while still having a festive meal. As an allergy mom, I’ve learned how important it is to take control of the menu. For me, that means preparing everything myself. It’s a lot of work, but it gives me peace of mind knowing that everything is egg-free, nut-free, and safe for my family. Here are my top tips for hosting holiday parties and gatherings with food allergies:
1. Plan Ahead and Make a List
The holiday baking season can get hectic, so take some time to plan your recipes and make a list of all the dietary restrictions you’ll need to accommodate. Whether it’s gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, or any combination of these, knowing what you need ahead of time will help you organize your shopping list, order online whatever special ingredient you need, and minimize stress. It’s also a great idea to batch-bake some items in advance, so you’re not baking everything all at once.
2. When you are the host, Prepare Everything Yourself!
I know this can be a lot of work, but I opt to prepare everything myself to avoid any potential cross-contamination or mix-ups. By doing it all, I can ensure that every dish, from appetizers to desserts, is completely egg-free and nut-free. This way, I don’t have to worry about hidden eggs in store-bought ingredients or in any dishes that might be prepared by someone else. While it’s a bit of extra effort, it guarantees that the whole meal is safe for my family, and I don’t have to stress about anyone’s health.
3. going to someone else’s house for the holidays
When you’re going to someone else’s house for the holidays, it’s important to communicate early about your child’s dietary restrictions. Let the host know in advance about any allergies, and if possible, offer to bring a safe dish or dessert that you know your child can enjoy. My preference is to bring everything my child is going to eat myself. Knowing that all the food is safe gives me peace of mind. I make sure to cover everything, from snacks to dinner to dessert, so I know my child will have plenty of delicious options to choose from. Don’t hesitate to ask the host about ingredients or preparation methods, especially for dishes containing hidden allergens. Most hosts will appreciate the heads-up and be willing to accommodate—after all, everyone wants to enjoy the holiday together!
4. Communicate Clearly with Your Guests
Clear communication with your guests is key, especially when food allergies are involved. I always let my family and friends know ahead of time that the entire Thanksgiving meal will be egg-free and nut-free. This helps avoid any confusion when they’re diving into the spread. If you’re worried about guests who might expect traditional dishes with eggs or any other allergen you are avoiding, you can share that this year’s menu is all about allergy-friendly dishes that everyone can enjoy safely.
5. Make Sure to Keep Everything is safe
When preparing your Holiday spread, it’s not just about desserts—everything needs to be free of your allergens! From stuffing to mashed potatoes and dinner rolls, allergens can sneak into almost any dish. I make sure to double-check all my recipes. This way, every dish is safe, and no one feels left out. I even check all ingredient labels (including packaged items like broths and sauces) to make sure there are no hidden allergens.
6. Prevent Cross-Contamination in the Kitchen
My kitchen is set up to accommodate my daughter’s dietary restrictions, but cross-contamination can happen easily, especially when preparing multiple dishes. Since I handle all the cooking myself, I take extra precautions to avoid any accidental mixing of allergens. If you’re preparing some dishes the traditional way (using allergens), be sure to thoroughly clean the kitchen both before and after you start. This includes wiping down countertops, utensils, and pans. I also recommend dedicating separate mixing bowls and spatulas for allergen-free dishes to ensure nothing contaminates the food you’re trying to keep safe. For example, my husband sometimes likes to make fried eggs for himself in the morning. To prevent cross-contamination, we have a separate skillet just for that purpose, making it easier to keep everything else allergen-free.
7. Get Your Family Involved, But with Precautions
The holidays are about togetherness, and I love getting my family involved in the cooking process. But when there are food allergies to consider, I make sure that everyone understands the importance of following strict allergen-free instructions. I don’t mind being a little “control freak” when it comes to my family’s safety, so don’t be afraid to speak up!
8. Don’t Be Afraid to Ask for Help
If you’re overwhelmed, ask for help! The holidays are all about spending time with loved ones, so don’t hesitate to involve others in the baking process. Get the kids, friends, and family involved with mixing, cutting, or decorating. Teamwork can make the process a lot more fun (and less stressful!).
9. Label Everything Clearly
Once everything’s baked, make sure to label your treats clearly. It’s helpful to have signs or labels indicating which desserts are gluten-free, nut-free, egg-free, etc. This makes it easier for guests to identify what’s safe for them without feeling awkward about asking. Trust me—your guests will appreciate it!
10. Stay Calm and Enjoy the Day
Food allergies can feel daunting, but it’s important to stay calm and enjoy the holiday. Preparing everything myself allows me to focus on what really matters: spending quality time with my family. I remind myself that this special day is about making memories, and there’s no need to stress about food as long as I’ve taken the necessary precautions. After all, Thanksgiving is all about gratitude, togetherness, and having a good time with the people you love.
11. Focus on the Fun
The holidays can get busy and stressful, but don’t forget to enjoy the process! Baking together as a family is a wonderful way to create memories, and when you’re baking for different dietary restrictions, it’s an opportunity to be creative and try new things. Experiment with new flavors, textures, and ingredients that everyone can enjoy. After all, it’s not just about the desserts—it’s about spending quality time with the people you love.
With these tips, you can survive the holiday baking season with ease and ensure that everyone feels included, no matter their dietary needs. Take it one step at a time, stay organized, and most importantly, enjoy the process! You’ve got this!
