and got a two things i've never tried before.

 

I got some vans cheese crackers and  some hodgson corn bread mix.

On another note, walmart is having a sale on chex for about $2 a box.

I've heard really good things about the Van's crackers but just haven't ever tried them.

 

I swear by Hodgson Mills brownie mix as my go to for in a pinch. I haven't tried the corn bread, but I have tried a few of their other things and have never been disappointed. I made cornbread stuffing last year for Thanksgiving and was planning on probably doing the same this year, which I need cornbread for. I didn't realize Hodgson makes one, but since I know they do I'll probably pick one up.

The Vans are yummy. They have oats - at least the ones I have had.

Yeah, I can plow through a box of Van's cheesey thingies in no time.

It's Karen's fault I got them. I love them, but.

I do not buy them anymore and my thighs are grateful.

Yes. It's my fault she has fat thighs. I sit my fat butt on her so she can't move and stuff the crackers right in! It's costing me a fortune in crackers! :)

and now, you all know the terrible truth. I'm a victim of senseless cheesy cracker bullying.

Don't let this happen to you. Just say NO! to the cheesy crackers. One bite, and you're hooked.

Ok, lol

I had to read the thread again to see where on earth you came up with the stuffing question  :lol: since we started with cornbread and crackers

and then Okee dokee...I see it now....you want Addy's cornbread stuffing recipe.?

Let me give her  shout as she may not have seen this question buried here.

 

Hold on..........YO ADDY!!  NEWBIE in da house has a stuffing emergency!!! lol.

 

In addition, here is a slow-cooker stuffing with apples and sausage, just FYI. :)

Um... I'd have to figure out where the recipe is exactly. It was in the holiday issue of last year's Living Without. I just need to figure out what I did with it. I sort of misplaced a few of my first issues. :ph34r: I know they didn't get thrown away but I reorganized some things and they're here somewhere. I'll see if I can remember to look for it and find it. If you want regular traditional stuffing, IH's recipe which is posted somewhere over in the cooking section is good. (so I've heard) This is more like a bread pudding consistency but made with cornbread. I like it. Anyway, lots to do today and I'll see what I can conjure.

maybe it is penance for their sucky waffles!  :lol:  they were like the second 'gluten-free substitute' thing that i bought when i was first diagnosed, that and ener-g rice bread (i think) anyways, very bad, and the  bread was like styrofoam - this site is worth it's weight in gold just for food recommendations!!!  worth it's weight, y'all, so keep eating those cheesy crackers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  lolz  :P

 

i make georgia spoonbread with cornbread mix, it's a cross between bread and pudding sort of.  now i wants some spoonbread........  i have ever added jalapenos to it, maybe i will try apples and sausage :)  play with food!  yeh!  ^_^

You really thought they were that bad? I prefer squishier ones (and homemade to boot), but, I tried them once and thought they were about a B-/C+ ish.

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
