    Blue Cheese Polenta (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    I love polenta in all forms; baked, grilled, and fried are great to serve alongside sauces but a piping hot bowl is classic. Polenta is easily transformed by adding other flavors; strong cheeses hold up well. Warm polenta is a wonderful substitute for mashed potatoes and an Italian staple no gluten-free diet should ever go without.

    Blue Cheese Polenta (Gluten-Free) - Photo: CC--RGSIngredients:
    1 cup gluten-free yellow cornmeal
    ¾ cup crumbled blue cheese
    4 cups chicken stock
    1 cup milk
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    Salt and pepper to taste

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    Directions:
    In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes. Add chicken stock and milk and bring to a boil.

    Reduce heat to medium and slowly whisk in cornmeal. Stir often and cook until thick, 15-20 minutes.

    Remove from heat and stir in cheese. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot.

    In my country (South Africa) they make blue cheese with bread. Using this recipe, as is, would make me extremely sick.

    It would be great to mention that some blue cheese are made with bread mold, so be sure of the type of blue cheese you buy does not contain any gluten!

    This is a common misconception...and it was true 100 years ago or more, but now cheese makers use cultures that are grown in labs. We've never heard of any makers using bread in caves to grow their cultures.

    I admit that I hated Brussels sprouts as a kid, and even into my early adult years. Then, I chanced upon an Italian restaurant in San Francisco called Vivande Porta Via, where the chef sautéed his sprouts in a pan and then finished them in the oven. When the chef came out to see how everything was, he was crestfallen that I had left his sprouts untouched, and prodded me to try them. I did, and the rest, as they say, is history. I coaxed the recipe out of the chef, and never looked back. I make these delicious stouts on a regular basis. They make an excellent side dish for the holidays. Properly cooked Brussels sprouts should be caramelized and slightly black or burnt looking. This recipe makes enough sprouts to serve about eight to ten people.
    Ingredients:
    2 pounds Brussels sprouts,...

      10 years later, my celiac is progressing

Ingredients I used over the years include (not in order): non-wheat grains such as teff, sorghum, millet, and eggs, butter, cheese, some milk, meat (poultry, red meat, but very little processed meat), gluten-free baked bread (mostly...

      Hair loss

      It sounds like you're dealing with a complex situation, and I can understand how frustrating it must be not to have a clear answer. Gut health can indeed play a significant role in various aspects of our well-being, including hair health.

      Thiamine supplementation

      I have found similar benefits from thiamine. I was diagnosed with celiac at 16 and never really recovered despite strict gluten and dairy free diet and no detectable antibodies on checkup bloodworks. I’ve tried stopping the b1 but start to feel bad again- I wanted my doctors to do more extensive testing for the different thiamine transporters and enzymes w...

      Waiting for urgent referral.

      Thank you for your welcome and reply. Yes I've been carefully reading labels looking for everything in bold and have been amazed by what I have seen. However Heinz tomato and basil soup is wheat free so I m thinking I already have ulcers? The acid could be causing the pain . My pain always starts in one place then follows the same route through...
