Thank You! Gluten in Medications and Boston Gluten-Free Cooking Spree

Posted Sep 22 2008 10:17am

I just wanted to take a quick moment to thank everyone who attended, participated and helped make the Boston Gluten-Free Cooking Spree and Gluten in Medications educational session a huge success!

At last count, 1001 pharmacists, medical professionals, dietitians and patients attended the Gluten in Medications Educational Session. The event was sponsored by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists and Stop & Shop. Due to the overwhelmingly positive response and the 130 emails I've gotten with requests to repeat the session, I can assure you that we definitely will hold another event in the near future. So stay tuned and check back for scheduling of the next session!

As for the Boston Gluten-Free Cooking Spree, 421 people from the Boston area came out to show their support for the NFCA and celiac disease awareness programming. I was going to give you a full overview, but I just noticed that one of our attendees already did a tremendous job with this, so here's a link to Jenny's recap! Click Here to read it!

Team #2 (Chef Jason Banusiewicz of Top of the Hub, Dr. Dan Beluk of Harvard Vanguard and Maria Lewis of Stop & Shop ) won the cooking competition and were awarded the Best Gluten-Free Dish in Boston Award! The team prepared a delicious Rice Paper Wrapped Salmon with Citrus Soy Glaze, Quinoa & Mango Salad with a Red Curry Cocounut Sauce. It was SOOOO good!

That's all for now, but stay tuned for more about upcoming fabulous events from the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness!
