Having a big BBQ this weekend? With dietary restrictions and little eaters, having the right food at your party is essential. Tinyhood's Registered Dietitian, Janel F., will be answering all of your meal planning questions for a great BBQ!
Which foods are best to prepare for picky toddlers besides hot dogs? Should I try cold pasta salads?
Can you recommend kid friendly side dishes for a pot luck that are milk free? It seems like all the recipes that I have include so sort of diary product.

Hi Jenny, |

Jenny The 2 big dishes that I usually make for BBQ's are potato salad and macaroni salad. In both I use milk to make them creamy. Could I get the same result with mayo? |

I think you can find many non-dairy recipes for both potato salad and pasta salad using an oil-based dressing/sauce. Depending on the recipe you may be able to use mayo but you may have more luck finding a recipe that is non-dairy to begin with. I love looking on Pinterest for recipe inspiration, and hopefully you'll even find a new favorite dish to bring to BBQs going forward! |
