Nini, I saw a post where you described how you do an oven-fried chicken using tater flakes. Please post that again. It looked delicious and I can't find it anywhere. Thanks!

Hi Nini--That was perfect timing for me! I bought the potato flakes on Saturday and made shepard's pie with them tonight (to make the meat part). I will be trying your chicken, too. Thanks :)

jaten Enthusiast

Tonight's supper is sure to be yummy. Thank you!

Guest nini

you are quite welcome. I have served this dish for company and got RAVE reviews! Every time I make it my husband comments on how good it smells while it's cooking and how tender and juicy it is! I just love it.

I always use Springer Mountain Farms antibiotic free, hormone free chicken... I think that using "clean" meat makes a difference in the taste too.

jaten Enthusiast

DELICIOUS!! And it did smell so wonderful while cooking. I had to use different brands but the result was mah-velous :D

Guest nini

YAY!!! I am so glad it worked out for you! It is one of my fave meals to serve for company!

Nini ~ I made your chicken last night! It was a hit with everyone!! Thanks so much!!

RoseNNJ Apprentice

I made it too! I used Boneless Chicken Breasts, thin sliced. Awesome! Thank you!!! :D:D:D

Guest nini

Success! I made it the other night too! I used Chicken Tenders, my fave to use when I'm wanting chicken fingers for dipping... I was hoping for leftovers but my hubby devoured the rest!!! (I made a big batch!)

I haven't made this yet, but I was looking for a recipe to replace my tenders recipe that used crushed saltines and hidden valley ranch powder (not gluten-free, right?).

I'm going to make these soon, I've had a hankering for chicken tenders! :D

Thanks for sharing, Nini!

Guest nini

you are welcome. It is soooooo yummy!

we came up with it one night when we were craving fried chicken and I started doing research how to do oven fried chicken and discovered I could use instant potato flakes... the rest is history!

penguin Community Regular

Nini, you've inspired me!

Tonight, I will be working like a mad scientist trying to raise my ranch chicken tenders up from the ashes!

***Lightning strike for dramatic effect****

All ranch powder is is spices and buttermilk, right? I'm going to try to find a gluten-free buttermilk powder, and then add typical ranch spices and some vitamin A or C powder for the acid vinegar would give...

Mwah ha ha...

To the laboratory! :lol:

(well, after I get off work anyway)

think I'll make this tomorrow night, I sure hope any brand of gluten-free potato flakes are ok.

I always make a homemade dip for my tenders, its great

just mix up a few Tbs of mayo, tsp yellow mustard, Tbs spicey mustard, honey to taste..yummy!

thanks for sharing

Yeah, I think any gluten-free flakes would work. I can't find Barbara's here, but Idaho Spud flakes worked great. Erbetty, your dip sounds yummy too.

Ok, the other night I just did chicken pieces because I wanted a "fried chicken" substitute. Now I'm needing some "chicken tenders." I miss Abner's tenders since dx. Chicken tenders with comeback sauce, Ore Ida fries, spinach salad. Sounds like a meal to me.

Guest nini

just check your brands... Kraft and General Mills will clearly label if there is any WBRO in the product... I use Barbara's because the ONLY ingredient is potatoes! That's it... no additives to guess about. Read your ingredient labels, and when in doubt about a brand, call the mfr., I try to go shopping during the weekday and use my cell phone right in the grocery store if I find something I have questions about.

ebrbetty Rising Star

hi nini, whats WBRO?? I have" Idaho Spuds" brand

you are not stupid! There are no stupid questions here!

No, but there are funny ones.

I'm so very glad this is a place we can all laugh together.

That's ok, Erbetty, we all have those moments. I'll have another cup of coffee just for you....I was just looking around for a good reason to finish off the pot. For what it's worth, it took me the longest to figure out all this dh, dd, stuff that you see posted everywhere here. I think I finally got it. If I'm wrong I might be embarrassing myself in my recent decision to use them :lol:

ebrbetty Rising Star
:P I don't think there's enough coffee for me today, still paying for my stupid move last night by eating gluten-free mac and cheese...I found out I can't have that much cheese :angry:

Thank you for the confirmation, Nini. I knew that DH was Dermatitis Herpetiformis, but got confused when people were talking about recipes their rashes enjoyed. My brain had to do some scrambling to catch up, but I got it.

jaten Enthusiast

Wow! Last night I used Nini's recipe with chicken tenderloin. This was so very delicious. Finally, the chicken tenders that I had loved so much. Served with Comeback sauce for dipping, OreIda fries, and spinach salad. Can hardly wait for the left overs tonight.

      Nope its just me because they can eat wheat and when we use same pans I found out last year thanks to you guys and the autoimmune website im learning,we are not to share though clean, same with sponge. I just wish doctors understood. I am with new gi and new pcp but im falling apart because blood work is fabulous.Im so ANGERY.I have reached out to my local representative, in Stanislaus but its just weekly stuff.Im going to need to physical go down there.Any recommendations on what to say and do because this is absolutely ridiculous. If I didn't have my husband though we are really hurting with one income, I would absolutely be one of the homeless population. Thats alarming begging to be heard about a diagnosis that was given as an adult and dealing with this, medical needs to stick to patients regardless of switching insurance or doctor.

      If you haven't noticed a difference yet, bump up your Thiamax.  Add in another Thiamax with breakfast and lunch.  Increase the NeuroMag as well.  You can add in another Benfotiamine, too.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Taking more is fine. I had to bump mine up several times when first starting.  It's a matter of finding what works for you.  Everyone is different.   Stick with it.  Some of the health improvements are very subtle and gradual.   Keep going!  You're doing great!

      Hello, @hjayne19, About half of the people with Celiac disease react to the protein Casein in dairy the same as to gluten with the inflammation and antibodies and all.  Reacting to Casein is not the same as lactose intolerance nor a dairy allergy.  Damaged villi are incapable of producing lactAse, the enzyme that digests lactOse, the sugar in dairy.  When the villi grow back, the villi can resume making lactase again.  I react to casein. Keep in mind that part of the autoimmune response to gluten and casein is the release of histamine.  Histamine causes inflammation, but it is also powerful excitory neurotransmitter, causing heightened mental alertness.  Histamine release is what causes us to wake up in the morning.  Unfortunately, excessive histamine can cause insomnia.  Our bodies can make histamine, but foods we eat contain different amounts of histamine, too.  Our bodies can clear a certain amount of histamine, but if overwhelmed, chronic high histamine levels can keep inflammation going and cause other health problems.   I got very weary of playing Sherlock Holmes trying to deduce what I was reacting to this week, so I adopted the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet designed by a doctor with Celiac, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, has been most helpful.   The low histamine AIP diet cuts out lots of foods that are known to be irritating to the digestive tract.  After a few weeks, when my system was calmer and healing, I could try adding other foods to my diet.  It was much easier starting with safe foods, adding one thing at a time, and checking for reactions than trying to figure out what I was reacting to with so many variables.  I learned to recognize when I had consumed too much histamine from different combinations of foods.  Everyone is different and can tolerate different amounts of histamine in their food.  B Vitamins help us make enzymes that break down histamine.  Vitamin D helps regulate and calm the immune system.  Supplementing with Thiamine helps prevent mast cells from releasing histamine.  Keeping a food-mood-poo'd journal helps identify problematic foods.   I hope you will consider trying the AIP diet.

      You may be cross reacting to the protein "casein" in dairy, which is structurally similar to gluten. People assume lactose intolerance is the only problem with dairy. It is not, at least for the celiac community.

      Hi @knitty kitty  Just revisiting this to get some help. I found after understanding the extent of my anxiety, my sleep got a little better. Flash forward to a few weeks later I have had a few bad sleeps in a row and I feel desperate for a good nights sleep. I understand worrying about it won’t help but one thing I had tied things too was dairy. Initially when I went gluten free I felt great for the first few weeks then started having some stomach pain. So thought maybe I was lactose intolerant. I started eating lactose free Greek yogurt and that did help take the cramping away I guess. Over the last few months I haven’t eaten it every single day and I went a few weeks without it. The last few nights I did have a small amount with breakfast and noticed that was the only new thing I’ve really added to my diet. I had seen a few other posts about this. Is it possible to still react to lactose free? Would this potentially be a dairy allergy? Or something else.
