Does anyone know if the mix for Cheeseburger macaroni hamburger helper is gluten free? I'm having a hard time figuring out which ingredients are in the pasta and which ingredients are in the mix! I'd like to substitute with gluten free noodles and just use the mix. Thanks!

Probably has some flour for thickener.  But the ingredients will say something like - macaroni ( wheat, cuz) then cheese powder , onion, .....

 

what flavor  or do you like?  There  are some gluten-free versions or maybe we could help you make up some mix to use

I didn't think about flour! I like the cheeseburger macaroni best!

When I was a kid, my mom didn’t want to pay extra for the cheeseburger hamburger helper.  She just made her own with Kraft max and cheese.  You could just make your own with a gluten-free Mac and cheese.  Not cheap, but would work great.

And if you google, there are some recipes for gluten-free hamburger helper.  and there are gluten-free boxes of it- Walmart has one  you if you can find it (maybe order it online to pick up free at your store?). I have a friend that likes it.

I use Velveta (sp?)  rather than taking a chance on a powdered mix.  Just brown the beef and cook the pasta then add either the velveta that comes in a box or the packets.  I always liked the cheesy to be extra cheesy and using the velveta I can make it as cheesy as I like.

I was going to chime in as a gluten free chef as to some alternatives here of similar options I have done for people EASY ones get a lundberg rice kit of choice, stir in browned ground meat of choice, sausage, or shrimp. I will link these. Other things I grew up in a Mexican family...we did not do hamburger helper but we did often do something called migas, were you dump some crushed up frito or tortilla chips in a frying pan, and cracked a bunch of eggs over them and scrambled it up then topped with shredded cheese and either ate  it as a burrito or with a fork with some salsa over it. I recent redid this with protein no carb tortilla chips and had a nostalgia child hood flash back of how a cheap and easy meal can be so wonderful lol. Anyway have a look as these lundberg kits and imagine them with browned burger, sausage, bacon, or shrimp in them for some easy meal ideas. Open Original Shared Link

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
