Best Vegetable Cookbook Ever


BabsV

Recommended Posts

BabsV Enthusiast

One of my friends sends me cookbooks every year for my birthday -- this year she sent me RIVER COTTAGE VEG EVERYDAY and I love love love it. Now that I can tolerate more types of veg I've been working to increase my intake and this has really helped. A lot of the recipes are naturally gluten free, some need minor modification. The section that includes sandwiches, pizzas, etc. is not one I use right now but if I reach a point where I can tolerate some of the gluten-free replacement foods I'll try a pizza or two! Best of all the recipes have gotten certain family members who aren't big veg fans to eat veg. My hubby even ate eggplant which is something he's never done willingly in all the years I've known him...of course, it was mixed in with roasted potatoes and drizzled with olive oil and lemon but I didn't exactly hide it from him.

I know the book is available from the UK site of the big A online retailer (my friend is British) but I didn't check Book Depository which would have free shipping to many countries.

Here's the intro:

I love this book so much I'm giving it as Christmas presents to my mother and mother-in-law. I've been tweaking some of the recipes since I'm in the States and not the UK but it hasn't been too challenging. Actually a lot of the recipes are very simple and relatively fast! I need to post my variation on a sweet potato peanut au gratin casserole -- it may not sound appetizing but it was delicious!

Thanks. That cookbook sounds fabulous. I love veggies but get lazy about cooking enough of them

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
