I ate a south beach and a Lean cuisine one with no problems. I have also eaten Amy's but some have made me sick. I also take leftovers and put them in gladware and freeze them. Then I have a frozen meal all ready to go!

I just make a lot of extra food at supper, and then eat leftovers for lunch and sometimes breakfast!

I do the same thing because I not only have to avoid gluten, but soy, also. I don't think I've ever seen a frozen dinner that is gluten-free and soy free. I do miss the convenience and variety, though :(

Lean Cuisine Glazed Chicken is gluten-free.

Amy's has lots of frozen gluten-free meals. But make sure you check because not all are safe.

And Bell & Evans is coming out with chicken nuggets.

10 ounce trays--> Sweet and Sour Rice; Chicken and Rice

Microwave Bean and Ham soup

At this time of year, Meal Mart (part of Alle processing corp.) has frozen meals for Passover. They are available for a short time. The company has informed me that they are gluten-free. I found them at my local Acme. A contact # for the company is 718-894-2000, and they have a website if you google them. I emailed customer service and received a really prompt and thorough response.

Some of their gluten-free meals include:

salisbury steak w/ gravy

stuffed cabbage

roasted chicken legs

I haven't tried 'em yet.

Also, I usually take a Sunday afternoon and bake some chicken - then I cube it and freeze it to make a quick chicken salad or stir fry. Do the same w/ hamburger patties, so if I'm in a time crunch I have the basics in the freezer.

This post has a very useful list of gluten free foods by the ConAgra company:

There are a few frozen dinners on this list. There are 3 Healthy Choice dinners listed, which you should be able to find at a regular grocery store.

Every mainstream one that I've tried, one lean cuisine meal and one south beach meal, I got very ill from. I like all the Amy's except the mac & cheese, which I did get sick from once, but I think they are working on thier cross contamination issues on that particular item. All my stores here sell Amy's so its easf for me.

Ironically, the only one I like and never makes me sick is the Amy's gluten-free mac n cheese.

I eat it like 3-4 times a week ... LOL!

Hi, Just would like to mention three companies whose products have made my life much easier and my diet more interesting. First is Breadless Breading -- absolutely wonderful frozen breaded, but gluten free chicken breasts and chicken tenders. Sold only at Publix. www.breadlessbreading.com. My non-celiac husband loves them.

Blue Diamond Nut Thins are gluten free crackers that come in a variety of flavors and taste like REAL crackers. You could easily serve them at a party with dips and spreads and no one would suspect that they were anything but tasty crackers. www.bluediamond.com.

Last, I've just discovered Schick's Bakery. They make a bunch of gluten free desserts. Their Chocolate Nut Roll is TO DIE FOR! www.schicksbakery.com .

there are a few meals by Seeds of Change that are gluten-free... also, Ian's is now making gluten-free/allergen free kids meals. So far I've only seen the chicken nugget one, but they also make chicken nuggets by themselves and fish sticks... I've also heard rumor about mini corn dog bites?!

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
