Does anyone have suggestions on how to make one. I have been craving pizza since I went cf. I have the Kinnikinnick pizza crusts, but I don't know what to put on them. How could I make them taste cheesy without any cheese?

Cheese may be an impossibility. My kids like the K crusts with Manwich. I make the Manwich with chopped meat, and top the crust with it. I've added cheese, but you don't have to. you can also throw in anything else you'd like ... more onions, gr. peppers, etc. The thing is, the manwich is so spicey and goooood, you might not even miss the cheese!

Are you CF due to an actual intolerance? Or do you feel that you need to heal villi damage? You can work dairy back in after a few months to see if it's still a problem.

I dont know if you are ok with soy or not but I use Melissa's soy shreads, Open Original Shared Link , or the store locator link at Open Original Shared Link . But I use the shreads with hormel pep. and whatever kind of spaghetti sauce you use, I tend to use prego traditional. Now the shreads do not match real cheese that close, but they say gluten-free on em and they do melt pretty good. I do not think there will ever be a fake cheese that matches real cheese perfect, but I hope this will help a little.

You adjust to pizza without the cheese. I make sure I have a lot of good sauce. I think capers really add a great flavor that I now crave. I top my pizzas (chebe mix) with sauce, black olives, crumbled hamberger, capers, veggies, onions, etc. I like tomatoes and artichoke hearts too.

It may take some time but I crave my new pizza. Of course, I went for years before with pizza without cheese - now I just have different crusts.

The soy cheeses always made me sick and now I know why.

How about a taco style pizza with lettuce, tomatoes, seasoned meat, onions.......etc?

I'd say just go cheeseless. Follow Your Heart is one of three soy based cheeses that don't have casein (that I've been able to find), and I hear it melts well, but you can make cheeseless pizza by using a good tasting sauce (I make my own), and good, flavorful ingredients. (Though every pepperoni I've seen has dry milk in it.)

I've used spinach, which is surprizingly good with a lot of stuff.

You may want to check into Open Original Shared Link vegan product line. I've only tried one of their veggie ones, which was really good IMHO. It does have soy in it.

There's also Open Original Shared Link, though I can't try theirs because they put yeast it them.

I always prefered sausage, but sometimes I wish for a bit of pepperoni.

I just looked up Gluten-free Casein-free sausage, and found Open Original Shared Link among others. They seem to have good labeling policies, and a good assortment of stuff too.

I have tried adding an aged cheese about once a month for the past few months but I have had D every time. I think it is a casein intolerance, but I'm not sure.

Thanks everyone for the great ideas. I completely forgot about artichoke hearts. I used to eat those on pizza all the time before I was gluten-free. It sounds like a good sauce is the key. After I write two finals on Thursday I'm going to make a Gluten-free Casein-free pizza and have a gluten-free beer.

Use goat cheese. Make sure it has no casein in it, so do not pick the soft stuff in the tube. I get the goat cheddar.

Goat cheese contains casein. ALL dairy - from any mammal - contains casein. The proportions of the different types of casein vary between different species, so some people who have a minor tolerance to cow-sourced dairy may be able to handle dairy from other species, it still does contain casein. If you have a serious allergy, particularly an anaphylactic one, it's a huge risk.

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
