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 !!

      Hi Ya All, Dr. just. Told me I have one celiac marker. I have been taking multiple blood test for thin Dr for years. Why couldn’t he have mentioned this! Anyway my functional med practitioner

      By trents · Posted

      Hello, Jeff and yes, PTL! The word "marker" is typically used in connection with gene testing but gene testing is not usually where testing for celiac disease starts. It usually starts with blood work looking for antibodies that are more or less specific to celiac disease. The most popular antibody test ordered by doctors is the tTG-IGA test but there are others. Here is an overview: Do you have access to your medical record/test results online? What is your next step with this? I assume you are not yet eating gluten free.

      Is tTG 9 normal after 4 months gluten-free?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @lizzie42, I have dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks when I am exposed to foods high in iodine.  Iodine can cause dermatitis herpetiformis to flair up badly.  So I avoid high iodine foods like dairy products, crustaceans (shrimp, crab, lobster, shellfish), Eggs, and iodized table salt.  Spinach,  potatoes, kale, and kelp are high in iodine, too. The antibodies that cause dermatitis herpetiformis are tTg 3 IgA.  The tests for Celiac Disease measure tTg 2 IgA antibodies.  The dermatitis herpetiformis tTg3 antibodies can hang around for two years or more and become more active when exposed to iodine without having gluten present.  Dermatitis Herpetiformis is pressure sensitive and are apt to form under tight clothing like belts, bras and underwear, seams on tight clothing, etc.   I find tallow balm (Vintage Traditions is my favorite gluten free brand) eases the itching and helps heal the blisters without scaring.  Niacin Vitamin B 3 helps the body rid itself of the dermatitis herpetiformis antibodies.  Niacin is one of eight essential B vitamins which should all be supplemented together because they all work together in concert.  Niacin is instrumental in the body's production of Serotonin, the feel good neurotransmitter.  The body turns Niacin into Tryptophan, which is used to make Serotonin.  So when I have dermatitis herpetiformis flairs, I also take Tryptophan at bedtime, and Niacin and a B Complex during the day.   Hope this helps!  I know how miserable dermatitis herpetiformis can be.

      How to work through food paranoia

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      hi Ya Trent, I really like my gastroenterologist; he mentioned it casually. maybe he thought I knew it. These tele appointments are good for getting to the point. I think he used the marker word. I will ask. PTL.

      @MegRCxx, it is common for people with celiac disease to have other food intolerances as well. Most common offenders are oats (even gluten free oats) and dairy. Soy, eggs and corn are less common but not rare. So, factor into your consideration.
