Does anyone else like humus? I really miss it and I was wondering if there is any gluten-free humus out there or if someone knows how to make it?

Finding a recipe to make it would be as easy as a google search or go to foodtv.com and search.

I haven't seen a commercial hummus that does have gluten, but you should always check. Just call the company.

Its easy to make on vegweb.com there's a bunch of recipes look under appetizers. As for store bought Emerald Valley Hummus is gluten-free and they also make some other tasty bean dips.

Hi, I've purchased gluten free humus at Safeway and Whole Foods. Sorry I don't know the brand (there are several of them). It was in a refridgerated section with the dips/etc.

I've also never seen a hummus with gluten, but I always find it *way* easier to make. I've got one recipe (sun-dried tomato hummus) already on Open Original Shared Link in the recipes section, and will add two more (italian hummus and garlic hummus) tonight. the basic premise, however, is simple:

garbanzo beans, either canned and drained or dry - soaked overnight and drained

tahini

lemon juice

garlic

olive oil

I'm not a huge fan of tahini, but a bit is needed, so I only used 1/8 - 1/4 cup.

and I like the taste of olive oil, so I use extra virgin, but some may prefer a lighter flavor.

and I love the taste of garlic, so I use plenty of fresh garlic.

it all gets blended in a food processor until smooth. I like to add a bit of cayenne and paprika, for fun and amusement, but that's option.

I know Tribe brand is gluten-free, and I think athenos is also.

I loveeee making my own, my mom taught me well, and being from a mediterranean family helps, but if you do feel lazy and u just want to buy some try Tribe, being spoiled from fresh homemade hummus, this is the best alternative Ive had...They were actually at a Celiac Support Group Meeting we had here in Mass last month giving free samples...yum!

and they have

-No cholesterol

-No saturated fat

-High in both protein and fiber

-No sugar

-High nutritional value Hummus meets recommended non dairy protein guidelines

I got Athenos red roasted pepper as my friend said was gluten-free. I got really sick! The company never returned my email either! So use caution with Athenos until you check with them.

It is organic and yummy.

I got addicted to hummus when I was living in the Middle East. The best is when you soak and cook dried beans, but I never have time to do that so I make my own...

1 can garbanzos, drained

juice of 1 lemon

lots of chopped fresh garlic..to taste

about 1 to 2 big T of tahini

1-2 T olive oiil

Mix well in blender, and add extra water in small amounts if it's too thick.

Put in dish, and drizzle olive oil on top.

I used to use pita bread to dip, but of course now that's out, but I still love it using carrot sticks and lettuce as dippers. This stuff is sooooo addictive. I can't stand commercial hummos...I've never had one that tastes good, or perhaps my taste was just formed from what I got used to during my years in the M.E.

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?
