Breckendridge, Co

I am going to Breckenridge, Colorado next week. Does anyone know of any restaurants in the area that have a good Gluten Free Menu?

I will be cooking most of our meals at our lodge, but I'm sure we will eat out at some point. Side note - has anyone noticed how much easier it is for a Celiac just to rent a place with a kitchen!

We were just there in March. We went to Mi Casa. It was good but not great. It is not cheesy Mexican. They bring you your own chips and bowl of salsa. They are just Tostitos but it was nice to be able to eat chips and salsa.

At Breckinridge ski resort, there is a little place inside the Ski Hil Grill that has gluten-free chili, and paninis made with Sandwich Petals. It looks like a coffee place. Not sure if its open in the summer. That is probably a main base for summer activities, too. Not cheap, but nothing in that area is.

We always get a condo so we can cook. We did that before Celiac. Its just easier, when you are tired, to stay in. You eat better, too. How often does a person have a burger and fries and an apple when they eat out?

I just got a set of backpacking pans. They fit inside each other and are light weight. I have found that the pans in rentals are often well worn teflon. I, also, bring a cutting mat, collapsable colander, some cooking spoons/spatuals, and toastit bags. Get foil when you are there and you can put 2 layers of foil on the cookie sheet and make Ore-Ida fries in the oven. I got some foil grilling pans. Hub lines them up in the grill so the holes are between the slats and opens them a bit more to let grease out. Some grills are so gross, I can't imagine anyone wanting to put food on them.

Forgot: There is a Bubba Gumps in Breck. I have not been to one but I have heard they are good for gluten-free.

We have not been to Breckenridge, but if there is a Bubba Gumps there, we would recommend it. We ate at Bubba Gumps for an entire week while in California on vacation in the Universal Studio area. We are sensitive to cross contact, and never got sick. My kids enjoyed it also.

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?
