Just wondering what kind of pasta sauces are safe out there. I read the ingredients, and I am not really sure why some sauces wouldn't be safe. Help!! I want some spaghetti!

Well, I play it safe and make my own. I use tomato sauce, garlic and red, green and yellow peppers with oregano, basil, onions, mushrooms etc.

Prego Traditional and Ragu Old World Rich and Meaty are listed on the Celiac Smart List.

You are going to want to make sure that you have a seperate colander for your gluten free pasta. You don't want to use the same one that has been used for regular pasta in the past.

Also, if you are making regular pasta in another pot for other members of your family, make sure that you stir the pots with different spoons.

I don't have to make regular pasta, because my son (who doesn't have Celiac) really likes the Tinkyada that I eat. I almost wish that he didn't so I could give him the cheap stuff, and I could have more leftovers for lunches.

Enjoy! :D

Thanks, Oh and i know about the seperate everything- i've been gluten-free for over a year. But, I've had a few different sauces, and I am always concerned. My fiance eats my gluten-free food, even though he is not gluten-free... that makes everything easier!!

Any more "saucy" suggestions!?

After buying some pricey gluten-free pasta sauces at Whole Foods I felt pretty silly when my Univ. of Chicago gluten-free goodie basket arrived and it included Ragu Old World in it. Ragu is great for making your own pizza if you have a crust you like...I don't yet but I'm trying Chebe this weekend. I hated the Gluten Free Bakehouse pizza crusts from WF's. I ate the toppings off and noted I should NOT buy that item anymore.

Question: what brands (if any) of pizza crust, bagels and/or eng. muffins have you guys found out there that are decent?

ACK!! YOu mean I have to throw out my plastic colander too, even if we washed it throughly and no longer, ever, make gluten pasta?

I really liked the Chebe pizza crust. I thought it was really good and even better the next day. The chebe breadsticks are also really good. I'm really weird about some of the gluten-free food and I really want it to taste like "normal" food and I think the Chebe crust is the closest to normal that I've had in a long time.

Vydorscope- I got a whole new colander for my pasta. I noticed that after I thoroughly cleaned mine that there was still a pasta residue. I just got a cheapy colander for my gluten-free pastas.

yep--I would (and did)..I had a plastic one, too. Just didn't trust that all those little holes were clean of gluten. I got a nice porcelain one at Target--not expensive at all.

Don't skip the spaghetti, do what I did before I got the new strainer. Just take the spaghetti out of the pot with tongs or a spaghetti fork thing. Scoop it out, hold it over the pot for a second to drain and put it in the dish. Same result--little bit more work.

Most if not all of the Classico Sauces are gluten-free. It's Heinz, so its a label reading scenario.

I mostly make my own, but when I'm in that "I just worked all day I'll be d$@ned if I'm cooking dinner too" head space I like to have a bottle of this stuff around to use.

Vydorscope - go to a dollar store. I got a plastic strainer there for $1. I prefer plastic to our heavy stainless one and sure enough you can't get the gluten pasta residue off the plastic ones.

If you never ever use gluten pasta in the colander and it's been thoroughly cleaned, I wouldn't worry about it. BUT, if you want to be real cautious, colanders are cheap. I have one of my own but live in a house with two gluten eaters.

      Is this celiac?

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps. I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday. I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testi...

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps.  I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday.  I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testing but the PA recommended me to a celiac specialist. Unfortunately the first available is mid-December.  As far as diet, I am a pescatarian (have been for 25+ years) and I stopped eating dairy mid-last week as my stomach discomfort continued. Right now, I’m having trouble eating anything. Have mostly been focused on bananas, grapes, nut butters, DF yogurt, eggs, veggie broth.   I ordered some gluten-free meal replacements to help.  But I’ll get all the items (thank goodness for Instacart) and try the diet you recommended to get me past this period of feeling completely awful.  Yes, my doctor diagnosed celiac. I was concerned it wasn’t right based on the negative blood test and my continued symptoms.  Even if you are ‘glutened’ it shouldn’t last forever, right? Is four days too long?
