Get out your Mickey Ears and don your aprons! It is time for this months’ Go Ahead Honey, It’s Gluten Free blog event, Dinner With Disney!
In honor of this months’ theme, bloggers were asked to choose their favorite Disney movie or character and create a Gluten Free meal using their chosen Disney icon as inspiration. Really, it was just an excuse to watch cartoons! The submissions ranged from whimsical and childlike to elegant and refined. Either way, this month’s participants created kitchen magic that would have made Walt Disney, himself, proud. Now, get ready! It’s time to celebrate the magic of Gluten Free eating with Walt Disney and Friends!
1) Jenn, of Jenn Cuisine, chose The Little Mermaid as her inspiration. Her delicious recipes never cease to inspire. This one is no exception!
Recipe: Bouillabaisse
2) Chaya, the Comfy Cook, decided to choose a character rather than a movie. Her meal is devoted to the iconic Mickey Mouse! Get ready to “Say Cheese”!
Recipe: Mickey’s Macaroni and Cheese
3) Amy of Simply Sugar and Gluten Free has once again out done herself. She contributed a dessert inspired by the movie Ice Age that is sure to freeze anyone in their tracks. Amy… adopt me!

6) Karen, from Muffin Fixation, really jumped feet first into this month’s event. She and her son submitted 2 recipes! The first was inspired by Monster’s Inc., and the second was Toy Story.
