Gluten Free Brooks Chili Replacement

I make my dad’s chili which is a very simple recipe. It’s a comfort food for me and I’ve been eating a lot of it since the quarantine and getting laid off. However it’s been making me sick and it’s because I realized one of the ingredients, Brooks Quick Chili Mix, has wheat flour in it. I hadn’t eaten this chili since before being diagnosed. Does anybody have a very simple, easy chili bean solution they use? I don’t need anything fancy, or something I have to invest a ton of time in. I’m not opposed to making my own bean mix either, I’m just worried about seasoning them. Al l recipes I find are super complicated or whole recipes when all I need are the beans. I don’t want to change the rest of the recipe at all. Any advice or suggestions? Recipe for context: 1 can brooks chili mix 1 can brooks diced tomatoes 1 can tomato paste Chili powder Ground beef

There are a few chili mixes out in the market that are labeled gluten free — Shilling and Carroll Shelby (excellent by the way).  Perhaps you can order online.  If not, make a mix from scratch.  Lots of recipes on the internet/YouTube.

Read the history of this site.  If you eat this chili, you might be inspired to race cars.  ?

      Hey Julie! I was in a similar situation before my biopsy and my gastro said Tylenol was fine. Just avoid ibuprofen or anything anti-inflammatory until you're cleared. Hope your surgery goes smoothly!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.
