Ian's now has tv dinners for kids that are gluten-free and allergen free! The one I saw yesterday was chicken nuggets with corn, mashed potatoes and a piece of gluten-free chocolate cake!!!! My daughter loves their allergen free gluten-free chicken nuggets and fish sticks, so this is a great thing for those nights I am too tired to cook and I still have to feed the kiddo (yep the kiddo still has to eat even if I don't feel like cooking! ;) ) I just have to say that I can't wait to see what other meals they are coming up with !

Wow, that is awesome! I wonder if they make vegetarian ones? (says the 24 year old who is still a kid at heart) :rolleyes:

I'm glad I saw this--Saturday, I saw Ian's chicken nuggets at Acme. They were marked allergen free as well as gluten and wheat free. I didn't buy because I hadn't heard anything about them--and they were over $4 for the small box. If they are good, I want to try them--just don't want to have to end up throwing them out. Anyone who's had them--are they really good?

Yes - the chicken nuggets are really good. Everyone in my house likes them - even those who can eat gluten. We haven't tried the fish sticks. I made my girls the Alphatots last night and they loved those, too.

They now even have gluten-free corn dog bites. They sound good!! I'm excited, but I haven't found them in the stores yet.

I like the fish sticks more than the chicken nuggets. They both seem a little dry to me, but better than nothing on nights when you don't want to cook.

We hate the chicken nuggets and think the fish sticks are just Mrs. Paul's fish sticks.

Thanks! There are so few "quick" things that are gluten-free. I'm going to buy a box the next time I go shopping and make some McCain's fries to go with them! :)

My daughter doesn't like the chicken nuggets, but does like the fish sticks. So, I buy those occasionally.

I found a great recipe for chicken nuggets that I have been making on weekends as I have time and then freezing them in individual sizes for the "fast food nights". I deep fry them in canola oil. I'll share the recipe if anyone is interested. My son even declared them "better" than the evil Mc!

Wellshire Kids makes a gluten free chicken nugget. They're really good! They're expensive, but sometimes convenience is worth the extra money.

Where do you guys get Ian's?

Whole Foods - in the frozen section. They are in little yellow square boxes. Ian's makes some products without gluten and some with gluten so look carefully at the front of the box (I think, but am not positive, that the gluten free line has a purple banner across the front). They are between the frozen waffles and the ice cream. My daughter really likes them. My local Shaws supermarket carries Ian's but not the gluten free stuff...

i liked the ian's nuggets MUCH better than the wellshire farms nuggets.....the ones shaped like dinosaurs haha...they're spicey :(....and the fish sticks were good. i just had a bit of an incident with them getting dethawed then refreezing them and eating them later

moral of the story. don't do that.

I bought two boxes of Ian's fish a few days ago. I was so happy to try them that night. Gosh, I could barely choke them down. For me it was very fishy, but it's better then what I"ve been eating, so I did eat all four that I made.

I love the Ians chicken nuggets! Actually, they have recently changed the shape and taste of the gluten-free nuggets. The old ones I thought were good but not great. These new ones taste so much better! When I first opened the package of these "new" nuggets I was worried they were the regular (gluten-full) nuggets and were just packaged incorrectly. So I emailed the company and they wrote back that they changed the shape of the gluten-free nuggets (they are now "neater" and shaped more like your traditional chicken nuggets). The email did not mention a changing of the recipe to make them taste better....but I think they taste soooooooooo much better. I can now say I love them rather than like them...

I sprinkle the Kraft mac and cheese topping on them and they taste great...

I like both the chicken nuggets and the fish sticks! I swear I am ready to threaten the local store if they do not get the mini corn dogs in! They are not for my kids, they are for me :)

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Food and environmental allergies involve IgE antibodies.  IgE antibodies provoke histamine release from mast cells.   Celiac disease is not always visible to the naked eye during endoscopy.  Much of the damage is microscopic and patchy or out of reach of the scope.  Did they take any biopsies of your small intestine for a pathologist to examine?  Were you given a Marsh score? Why do you say you "don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease"?   Just curious.

      I was tested for food allergies and environmental allergies about 7 months before I started taking Naltrexone, so I don't think that is the cause for me, but that's interesting!  The main thing with the celiac thing that is throwing me off is these symptoms are lifelong, but I don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Kara S! Warrior bread is a grain free bread product. Google it. There are commercial mixes available, I believe, Youtube videos and many recipes.

      Gluten related ??

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Colleen H, I have had similar reactions and symptoms like yours.  I started following the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet developed by a doctor with Celiac Disease herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, is very helpful in understanding what's going on in the body.   Not only do you have antibodies attacking the body, there are mast cells spreading histamine which causes inflammation.  Foods also contain histamine or act as histamine releasers.  Our bodies have difficulty clearing histamine if there's too much.  Following the low histamine AIP diet allows your body time to clear the excess histamine we're making as part of the autoimmune response, without adding in extra histamine from foods.  High histamine foods include eggs, processed foods and some citrus fruits.  The AIP diet allows meat and vegetables.  No processed meats like sausage, luncheon meats, ham, chicken nuggets, etc. No night shades (potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant).  No dairy.  No grains.  No rice.  No eggs.  No gluten-free processed foods like gluten free breads and cookies.  No nuts.  No expensive processed gluten-free foods.  Meat and vegetables.  Some fruit. Some fruit, like applesauce, contains high levels of fructose which can cause digestive upsets.  Fructose gets fermented by yeasts in the gastrointestinal tract.  This fermentation can cause gas, bloating and abdominal pain.   The AIP diet changes your microbiome.  Change what you eat and that changes which bacteria live in your gut.  By cutting out carbohydrates from grains and starchy veggies like potatoes, SIBO bacteria get starved out.  Fermenting yeasts get starved out, too.  Healthy bacteria repopulate the gut.   Thiamine Vitamin B 1 helps regulate gut bacteria.  Low thiamine can lead to SIBO and yeast infestation.  Mast cells release histamine more easily when they are low in Thiamine.  Anxiety, depression, and irritability are early symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  A form of thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Thiamine works with the seven other B vitamins.  They all need each other to function properly.   Other vitamins and minerals are needed, too.  Vitamin D helps calm and regulate the immune system. Thiamine is needed to turn Vitamin D into an active form.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Taking a B Complex and additional Benfotiamine is beneficial.  The B vitamins are water soluble, easily lost if we're not absorbing nutrients properly as with Celiac Disease.  Since blood tests for B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate, taking a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and magnesium Threonate, and looking for health improvements is a better way to see if you're insufficient.   I do hope you will give the low histamine AIP diet a try.  It really works.
