    Quinoa and Celery Salad (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    The warmer months provide a steady demand for light, easy salads. Quinoa is one of those great foods that taste great warm or cold and holds up well against the other unique flavors in this salad.  This great summertime salad offers a fresh and tangy alternative to more traditional pasta salads, with just a hint of sophistication. It's a great dish for picnics, potlucks and your own kitchen table.

    Ingredients:
    1 cup quinoa
    3 large celery stalks, thinly sliced
    1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
    3-4 radishes, thinly sliced
    ½ red onion, diced
    ¼ cup fresh dill, chopped
    1 cup crumbled feta cheese
    ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
    ½ cup olive oil
    2 cups water
    Salt and pepper to taste

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    Directions:
    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add quinoa. Cook until fluffy, about 12-15 minutes and transfer to a serving bowl. Stir in celery, tomatoes, radishes, and onions.

    In a small bowl, whisk together oil and vinegar. Pour over salad toss lightly to coat. Fold in cheese and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with a sprinkle of dill.

    Quinoa and feta - a match made in heaven. I suggest trying this recipe with about half the feta and then adding more if you think it needs it. Because quinoa has its own creamy mouth texture, a little cheese goes a long way.

    Sweet and spicy join hands and dance in this no-fuss marinade that goes great on a variety of meat. This recipe yields 2 cups and lasts about 5 days in the refrigerator. Typically, the longer you marinate, the deeper the flavor, but even 30 minutes is enough for this sauce develop a unique tang. The colors and fragrance make for a nice presentation if using a finishing sauce.
    Ingredients:
    1 12-ounce jar peach preserves, or your own
    1 cup sweet red chili sauce, Thai Kitchen brand is gluten-free

      Daughter waiting for appointment

      I had what was termed "lesions," and normally ulcers are in the stomach, rather than the small intestines. I'm not sure why they would want you to have her continue to eat gluten, since she had a positive blood test, but as her doctor said, if she is uncomfortable and having symptoms why not have her go gluten-free at this point? If her symptoms improve,...

      Rigorous exercise + inflammation/fatigue?

      Scanlan, any luck with the b1 vitamins or anything else ? New celiac of 10 months and anytime I push myself i over exert myself with weights I’m exhausted for several days afterwards. Had a blood test done too and everything was normal. Thanks !

      Daughter waiting for appointment

      My daughter had her endoscopy today. The Dr said it looked normal but she has two small ulcers. The Dr took 16 biopsies, ahold have the results in a few days. She told her to keep eating gluten until we get the biopsy results unless it’s bothering her stomach too much. has anyone else had ulcers with celiac?
