Breakfast Quinoa


user001

Recommended Posts

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 : )

Butter and salt is good too :)

user001 Contributor

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:

Laura, perfect! Thank you! You pre make yours and store in the fridge? 

LauraTX Rising Star

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.

Laura i made the martha stewart recipe for lunch but used coconut almond milk, raisins and walnuts. Its amazing!

LauraTX Rising Star

Awesome :)  I love the texture of it.  It is in my regular recipe rotation.

user001 Contributor

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.

Chex has a gluten free oatmeal now.

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/

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
