Gluten Free Easter Dinner Ideas
Appetizers
1. Goat Cheese Coffee Fig Spread with GF Toast Triangles
Feast your eyes on this!!! What can I say…this little appetizer was the most Picture – Perfect spread to serve, at our latest gathering. And tasty too. Everyone loved the combination of flavors of the savory and sweet. The bread toasts worked perfectly with the spread since they were cut into little triangles, making them easy to grab, spread or dip.
So go ahead and dive right in. Everyone else did. Get the recipe here >>
2. Gluten Free Cheese Fondue Recipe
You don’t need to go to a fancy restaurant to have fondue, it’s super easy to make at home! The flavors combos are endless, but I love using gluten free beer in mine. It gives it a nice little kick. Combine that with sharp cheddar and gouda and it’s heaven.
Fondue is one of those meals best enjoyed when shared with your loved ones. Whether it’s your significant other, or friends for game night, gluten free cheese fondue is a winner every time. Get the recipe here >>

4. Caprese Style Gluten Free Panzanella Salad
Panzanella is a Tuscan chopped salad of bread and tomatoes that is popular in the summer. It includes chunks of soaked stale bread and tomatoes, sometimes also onions and basil, dressed with olive oil and vinegar. It is also popular in other parts of central Italy. This version from Eat at Our Table offers a twist with creamy mozzarella cheese to make it Caprese style! Get the recipe here >>
Main Dish
5. Gluten-free Lemon Tarragon Crispy Salmon
In this dish, flavors of lemon, dijon, and tarragon come together to make a delicious spring combination you’ll be dreaming about for days. Get the recipe here >>
6. Cheesy Chicken Cordon Bleu
Chicken cordon bleu is an American classic. Traditionally chicken breast is pounded thin, then rolled with ham and cheese, dipped in egg and bread crumbs and fried, which is delicious, but a bit complicated to make. With Three Baker’s Snackers we put a fun twist on this classic. Get the recipe here >>
