20 Allergy-Friendly Thanksgiving Dishes

Food intolerances and allergies are no fun on holidays. Here are over 20 Allergy-friendly Thanksgiving dishes!

There’s nothing worse than trying to navigate a spread of food when you have dietary restrictions.  Whether you have food allergies, intolerances, or just follow certain dietary guidelines for health or ethical reasons, it sucks having to scrutinize every dish.

I remember when my diet was extremely limited due to Luke’s food intolerances, social situations with food were a nightmare.  So this Thanksgiving, if you are hosting and are having someone over who can’t fully indulge in all your cooking because of special diet needs, here are some allergy-friendly Thanksgiving side dish options you can provide.  Trust me, they will be delighted you thought enough of them to prepare some dishes they can enjoy with the rest of the crew.

Instead of scouring the web for recipes that fit your specific restrictions, I did the work for you.  Check out all the delicious options below and you’re sure to find something that fits you and your guests’ needs!  I’ve got all the traditional Thanksgiving sides covered, along with some new friends that are sure to become fast favorites.
