Kinnikinick Pizza Crusts

Since I can't eat cheese, I have made my pizza crusts foccacia style. I put olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, hot peppers, etc, on top, then bake. I then cut them up and dip them in olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Oh, great idea!!

Viola, glad you like the cinnamon/sugar idea....I may make that tonight. Ended up trying chocolate chip cookies again last night - tasted good, baked not like a cookie should :unsure:

I LOVE Chebe crusts- yummm! Vydor Scope- have you tried Namaste pizza crust? Very similar to Chebe taste wise (but it's not pre-made so you need to do a little mixing- easy enough) and I am pretty sure it is egg-free. It's goooood! Really good.

tried a couple fo mixes, dont remember which ones.. not massivly impressed with any.

Namaste is another line of really good products. I did not care for their cookie mix, but I don't know if it was the olive oil I used instead of vegtable. It can give a strong taste. Their cakes are AWESOME and they don't have egg in the mix, so you can use egg substitute. They are casein free, gluten free, egg free, and soy free!

Nini-I made the cheese sticks the other night and they were AMAZING. definitely made my night. Before all the "big" chains came out with them, there was a chain that sold them (and still does) called Gumby's. Many are in college towns (like PSU!). I cannot tell you how much money I spent on those, esp late nights after going out! Pokey sticks are the best....these at least give me the idea that I am still young, cool, in college, and not Celiac (wait, I'm out of college, work long hours, and a very sensitive Celiac.....haha!) :D

What a great thread! Thanks for all the great ideas. You know what my problem is.....I have one Kinnikinnick pizza crust left in the freezer. Did you hear me? ONE crust I've been saving until I just couldn't wait longer. (Nearest Wild Oats quit carrying them and haven't placed an order). So, here I am with one crust and so many ideas. I may have to cut it in 1/8's and try them all :unsure:

Here's a different idea for pizza>

1 gluten-free crust

1 can gluten-free mushroom soup (if thin it may need a tad of thickener added)

1 box frozen spinach ( chopped & drained very well)I squeese mine by hand

garlic powder to your liking.

spread the mushroom soup on the crust,put spinach on top of mushroom soup

then sprinle with garlic or any of your favorite spices.

bake as usual.

enjoy!

I live on their stuff. I'm in the same city as they are so I can get all of their products. The pizza crusts are a lifesaver and we have cobbled together many a meal basedon them. The oreos are so good, the first time I had one I cried, thinking I was doing something I oughtn't. I adore their donuts. This company had changed my life for the better. I applaud them heartily.

(But I still hate all Celiac safe "bread" - even theirs).

I'm with you, there bread is disgusting. I can't wait, I'm going to Kinnikinnick for the first time tomorrow.

I've never tried these oreo's you guys' speak of, though I don't know if I can eat them. I've had their gingerbread cookies (I don't know if they ship them or not) which taste like normal cookies I think. Their lemon meringue pie is good too. I don't like their bread though, I find it overly sweet. But I'm heading there tomorrow so I gotta check out these oreos.

I got the buns....I think they were basically like the Engish muffins. Both are great! This is unusual with gluten-free bread products, but both the buns and muffins are THICK....and have a soft nice quality. I always toast the English muffin (split in half--so big I can only eat a half at a time), but I thawed the bun and made a hamburger and it was quite good....my only complaint was that it was actually too thick for me!

I ordered the pizza crusts but haven't tried them yet. I'm glad to hear they're good! :P

I also thought the hamburger buns were too thick, but very good. I would like them better

if they made 6 buns instead of 4 and then I think they would be perfect. I thought I died

and went to heaven. We go camping and I was wondering how long would they keep it

not kept frozen? We don't have a freezer in our Popup Camper.

Thanks mamaw! I love this idea and my dd loves spinach!! I'll have have to try it if I can find a safe mushroom soup.

Hey Vincent ~ I can't use the premade crusts b/c of egg and rice but I found one that is really easy to make. It's at Carol Fenster's site... Open Original Shared Link I use the oil/water/bp as the egg replacer. Your son would probably love it. I just make a bunch at one time, bake them and then freeze them.

CeriA and all others

SPINACH PIZZA

I also sometimes put real bacon bits on top of the spinach . I know others who

put cooked burger on it but I like the bacon bits better . Of course the vegan would not use any....

Just another idea.

I went there today and bought bagels, K-toos, a bunch of other stuff, but the thing I was looking forward to the most was a pie. I can't wait to try it. I love this store. The K-toos are awesome and I don't normally have a sweet tooth.

Nini-

I just had the best dinner, thanks to you! I finally tried your garlic cheese bread with the pizza crusts! Yummy!!! I had white rice tinkyada spaghetti with spag. sauce, the garlic cheese bread, and broccoli! Ohhh...I'm craving the leftovers that I put in the fridge for my hubby!! I can't believe how good the crust turned out. Thank you for posting that picky-eater-friendly recipe! I'm gonna have to order more pizza crusts!!! (Kinnikinnick should owe you money! :) )

Guest nini

LOL Mally'smamma! glad you enjoyed your dinner! See, I DO know what I'm talking about (SOMETIMES!!!! LOL) j/k

have you found the Ian's Allergen free kids meals yet? My daughter absolutely loves them and she's pretty picky.

Kinnikinnick Order Question:

I know that they ship frozen. Do you have to be home to receive the shipment or is it ok on your doorstep for a few hours? They're shipped frozen, but what is the shipping, packing process? Thanks!

For those of you who saw my dilemna of only one crust....I debated and debated and finally used it for a pepperoni pizza, with spinach and mushrooms. I've been putting spinach on my pizza for years ever since eating a gourmet pizza with spinach on it. Love the stuff!

In addition to spinach, mushrooms, and bacon, for those who can have dairy, try a different cheese, such as feta and add some fresh sliced tomatoes before baking. YUMMMM!

I haven't seen them yet... but I also haven't been back to the health food store yet. It's such a pain to go to - but a Whole Foods is opening not too far away in a week - so I can't wait to go there! Are those meals in the frozen section? I'll have to remember to look for them. Thanks for the suggestion!

Guest nini

yep they are in the freezer, Ian's does make a line of foods with gluten so just make sure you get the ones with the Allergen Free/Gluten free labeling on the front of the box.

      Hello again. Thank you for the responses to date. I have had several follow-ups and wanted to share what I’ve learned. About a month after my initial blood test and going gluten free, my TtG went from 8.1 to 1.8. I have learned that my copper is low and my B6 is high. My other vitamins and nutrients are more or less in range. After I glutened myself on 10/24, I have been strict about being gluten free - so about a month. I have been eating dairy free and low FODMAP as well because it’s what my stomach allows. Baked fish, potatoes, rice, etc. Whole foods and limited Whole foods. I have continued to lose weight but it has slowed down, but a total of about 15 pounds since I went gluten free. Along with stomach pain, my symptoms included nausea, body and joint pain, a burning sensation throughout my body and heart rate spikes. I still have them but I have them less now. These are the symptoms that led to my doctor appointments and subsequent diagnosis. I also did the DNA screening and was positive. So, at this point, the answer is yes, I have celiac. I have two questions for this group. Any ideas on why my enteropathy was so severe (marsh 3B) and my TtG was so minimal? Is that common? Or are there other things to consider with that combo? And this recovery, still having pain and other symptoms a month later (7 weeks gluten free and 4 weeks after the glutening) normal? I’m going to continue down this path of bland foods and trying to heal but would love to understand the reasons for the long journey. I read so much about people who stop eating gluten and feel amazing. I wish that was my experience but it certainly hasn’t been. Thank you again!

      @Trish G,  I like dates, they have lots if fiber as well.  But what I found helped most was taking Thiamine (in the form Benfotiamine which helps promote intestinal healing), Pyridoxine B 6, Riboflavin B 2, and magnesium, and Omega Three fats. The absorption of nutrients is affected by Celiac disease which damages the intestinal lining of the small intestines where our nutrients are absorbed.  If you have constipation, where your body is rather pushing your food away and not interacting with it, the nutrients in the food are not being released and absorbed.  You can develop deficiencies in all the vitamins and minerals necessary for the body to function properly.   The B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished daily.  Thiamine B 1 stores can run out in as little as three days.  Constipation (or diarrhea or alternating) is one of the first symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Thiamine needs magnesium, Pyridoxine B 6, and Riboflavin B 2 to make the intestinal tract function.  Thiamine and Niacin make digestive enzymes.  Thiamine provides the energy for nerve impulses to carry messages to the brain and back about digestion.  Thiamine provides the energy for the muscle contractions which move your food through the digestive tract. High calorie meals containing lots of starches and sugars can deplete thiamine stores quickly because more thiamine is required to turn them into energy.   Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements?  Correction of malnutrition is very important in Celiac disease.  Thiamine, the other B vitamins and magnesium will help with constipation better than adding more fiber.  What did your nutritionist recommend you take, besides just the fiber? The association between dietary vitamin B1 intake and constipation: a population-based study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11100033/ Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Association between dietary vitamin B6 intake and constipation: a population-based study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11584952/

      @kpf, Were you eating ten grams or more of gluten daily in the month preceding your antibody blood tests? TTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  Ten grams of gluten per day for several weeks before testing is required to provoke sufficient antibody production for the antibodies to leave the intestines and enter the blood stream and be measured in blood tests. If you had already gone gluten free or if you had lowered your consumption of gluten before testing, your results will be inaccurate and inconclusive.   See link below on gluten challenge guidelines. Have you had any genetic testing done to see if you carry genes for Celiac disease?  If you don't have genes for Celiac, look elsewhere for a diagnosis.  But if you have Celiac genes, you cannot rule out Celiac disease. You mentioned in another post that you are vegetarian.  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  The best sources of the eight essential B vitamins are found in meats.  Do you supplement any of the B vitamins as a vegetarian? Deficiency in Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is strongly associated with anemia which can cause false negatives on antibody tests.  Fatigue, numbness or tingling in extremities, difficulty with coordination, headaches and anemia are strongly associated with thiamine deficiency.  Other B vitamins that contribute to those symptoms are Riboflavin B 2, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9 and B12 Cobalamine.  The eight B vitamins all work together with minerals like magnesium and iron.  So your symptoms are indicative of B vitamin deficiencies.  You can develop vitamin and mineral deficiencies just being a vegetarian and not eating good sources of B vitamins like meat.  B vitamin deficiencies are found in Celiac due to the malabsorption of nutrients because the lining of the intestines gets damaged by the antibodies produced in response to gluten.

      Thanks, I'm not a big fan of prunes but did add them back after stopping the Benefiber. Hoping for the best while I wait to hear back from Nutritionist for a different fiber supplement.  Thanks again

      If you were wondering why milk protein bothers you with Celiac Disease.  Commercial dairies supplement the cow feed with wheat, which becomes incorporated in the milk protein. Milk omega 6 to omega 3 ratio: Commercial Dairies: 5:1 Organic Milk: 3:1 Grass fed milk: 1:1
