Breakfast Quinoa

I used to have oatmeal occasionally but the oats i have are not gluten-free, and I would rather splurge on some new baking products and chicken this week than certified gluten-free oatmeal. 

 

I feel like quinoa may be healthier, does anyone have any breakfast quinoa recipes to share? I was thinking cinnamon, raisins and walnuts? Thoughts?

I can't eat Quinoa anymore...but did use it when dx'd for breakfast and lunches.

 

I'd make large batch and then put in ziplocks to use for each meal.

 

Breakfast - cinnamon and apples, ginger and peaches, sage with egg or spinach

 

Lunch -- any veggies or cubed meat added in.

I wish I had apples. I need to go shopping. I have been ok with Quinoa so far, I hope it stays that way.

It is a wonderful gluten free grain alternative packed with protein which I hope to get back one day : )

I hope you get it back. I have a great savory recipe for a greek quinoa salad if you ever get it back. Well it's my own recipe which is still in my head and not on paper yet, gotta write it down.

I sometimes make what I call quinoa oatmeal.  I cook it up in a pot with half milk, half water, and whatever fruit like granny smith applies, a dash of cinnamon, etc.  It keeps through the week nicely.  Here are two recipes of that kind of preparation, one is DF:

Yes, usually when I make it, I will use 1C of dry quinoa which makes 3-4 big servings, and it stays in the fridge well.  Quinoa doesn't overcook and change texture easily so the texture keeps, too.

I actually added two dashes of salt, that's how I always made oatmeal before. I always like a touch of salt in all my sweets. Sooooo good, even for lunch.

Is there a type of quinoa that is better than another?  I really need to find an oatmeal substitute.

I find that usually Bobs red mill has the best price per ounce.  They also have a solid gluten-free claim on theirs and some brands lack that.  Those zip top packs can be cheaper but there isn't a lot in there.  Bobs red mill is pre rinsed, and some others are, too, but you definitely always need to rinse your quinoa either way to get rid of the bitter stuff that clings to the outside.  If the method of cooking calls for soaking, toss the soaking water before cooking.

 Yep, it is new!  See this thread: https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/108191-chex-gluten-free-oatmeal/

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
