Calling all coeliacs...

[PennyLess]

Forgive me if I've spelt it wrong...
I have a coeliac (who also happens to be pregnant) coming to stay in a couple of weeks time. She will be here for 5 meals (excl b'fasts) altogether and I am stumped. I have a great recipe for lamb tagine which is thickened with prunes, but my main issue is that I shall be feeding about 100 mouths (worked out on a people per meal basis) over the course of the weekend and I need things I can get done and frozen in advance - otherwise a roast would be an obvious answer for one of the meals.

Need mains and puds. I'm sure it's just a question of getting in to the mindset but I feel stumped and panicky and super-stressed.

Cheesecake is good without the base. There's a Mary berry one which mixes marscapone and cottage cheese I think with lemons and jelly. I used to make this up as normal, with a biscuit base, but when I made the topping, I'd make a separate small baseless one in a ramekin and deocrate with swirl of cream and lemon zest.

Meringues/pavlova = fab. Cream and lots of lovely fresh fruit.

Use cornflour to thicken and be v careful of stocks and ready-to-use sauces.

Twice-baked cheesy jackets. Cook jkt spuds, halve, scoop out flesh mix with cheese, sour cream if wished, maybe some chopped chives, put back into pot skins and pop in the oven again. Can put grated cheese on top. Serve with pickles/sliced meats and salad.

Thanks Sue, the cheesecake idea is a good one, and pavlova freezes too, doesn't it? I really am going to have a houseful (incl children aged 3 - 10) and people coming and going all weekend so I do want things that are basically ready to serve. I find doing the hostess thing at the same time as dealing with requirements for the next meal really tricky.
