    So often I hear people asking how to make their own  healthy, gluten-free snacks. The following nut cracker recipe is easy, inexpensive, and yes it's also healthy. Feel free to substitute the nuts and seeds listed below for other nuts or seeds of your preference. I always like to soak my nuts before using them; soaked nuts are much easier to digest.
    Crunchy Nut Crackers
    Serving Size: Makes around 30-40 (depending on how the size of cracker you make.)
    Ingredients:

    2 cups mixed nuts of your choice: (cashew, almonds, pumpkin seeds and flax seeds work well) 1 egg 2 tbsp filtered water 1 1/8 tsp Himalayan salt Options: Top with sea salt, anise seeds, nigella seeds or some other seeds of your choice.To make:

    Preheat the oven at 360°F (180°C). Line two baking sh...

    Gorgonzola is a veined Italian blue cheese, made from unskimmed cow's and/or goat's milk.
    Contrary to popular belief, Gorgonzola, or blue cheese does NOT contain gluten. These days, blue cheese is no longer made with mold from stale bread as a starter, as it was once upon a time. The molds used to make commercial Gorgonzola and blue cheese are isolated for purity, and cultured in sterile conditions. They are gluten-free. That means that most people with celiac disease and gluten intolerance are free to eat most all blue cheeses.
    To celebrate that fact, I recently prepared a delicious beet salad with Gorgonzola, pear and arugula, which is one of my summer favorites. I just couldn't wait for summer to get started.

It's great to take on picnics, and can be served with your favorite gluten-free bread, or on top of your favorite salad.
    This recipe is easy to make and delivers a tasty lobster salad that just screams: L-O-V-E!
    Ingredients:
    1 pound cooked lobster meat, cut into bite-sized pieces ¼ cup butter, melted ¼ cup mayonnaise (I like Kewpie, Japanese-style mayonnaise, but standard mayo will do fine) ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper Directions:

      Recently Diagnosed Celiac- Need advice

      Welcome to the community forum, @Anmol! There are a number of blood antibody tests that can be administered when diagnosing celiac disease and it is normal that not all of them will be positive. Three out of four that were run for you were positive. It looks pretty conclusive that you have celiac disease. Many physicians will only run the tTG-IGA test...

      Welcome to the forum community, @ekelsay! Yes, your tTG-IGA score is strongly positive for celiac disease. There are other antibody tests that can be run when diagnosing celiac disease but the tTG-IGA is the most popular with physicians because it combines good sensitivity with good specificity, and it is a relatively inexpensive test to perform. The...
