Bake a batch of chocolate chip cookies. Just follow the recipe on the bag of chips and substitute gluten-free flour. (Make sure you know you have a good flour mix.) Or make a batch of brownies using Pamela's mix. Look in the recipes section here - there are lots of good desserts.

The Gluten Free Pantry Truffle Brownie Mix is very good, also. I made them in a 13 by 9 inch pan--it made a good size batch. If you don't have much experience with gluten-free baking, a mix might be a safer bet to take to the meeting.

Here's my chocolate chip cookie recipe that I make almost once a week for my whole family. Never had a complaint yet about them tasting yucky or different than "normal"

1 C Margarine or Butter, softened

3/4 C Brown sugar

3/4 C Granulated sugar

1 Egg (or substitute)

1/3 C Almond butter

1 tsp Vanilla

2-1/4 C gluten-free Flour (I use Bette Hagman's recipe w/ 2 tsp. xanthan gum)

1 tsp baking soda

1 package chocolate chips

Heat overn to 375. Mix butter, sugar, egg, almond butter and vanilla. Stir in flour and baking soda. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonful about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until light brown, about 10 minutes. Cool until cookies are set, then remove from cookie sheet. DON'T try to take them off too soon!

Good luck!

Papaya muffins ... use any gluten-free banana bread recipe, but substitute papaya for banana, sunflower seeds for pecans and craisins for raisins.... I like it with a little extra brown sugar and loads of craisins ... yum !!

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      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...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      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...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      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.
