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

Some other easy foods- Campbell Chunky Chicken, Brocolli, Cheese Soup; Dinty Moore Beef Stew

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?!

      Welcome to the forum, @Trish G! "Gluten free" does not necessarily equate to "no gluten". According to FDA standards it actually means that a food product contains no more than 20ppm of gluten. This is safe for most celiacs but would not be for those who are on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. So, it would depend on the individual celiac and their level of sensitivity to minor amounts of gluten. That's the long and nuanced answer. The short answer is that it is a product derived from wheat and so you can be certain it will contain some residual amounts of gluten. No gluten removal process is 100% effective. So, to be absolutely certain, stay away from it. Have you tried chia seeds? Very high in fiber and quickly turns into a gel when added to water. Make sure you get seeds that are gluten free if you decide to try it.

      I was taking Benefiber for my IBS-C before my celiac diagnosis. It does say Gluten Free but lists Wheat Dextrin on the label. I really dont like psyllium fiber, so is there anything else I can take or is the Benefiber really ok for someone with Celiac disease?  Thanks!!!

      Abdominal pain and an itchy stomach were the symptoms I asked to see a GI about. Now I’ve learned these other symptoms—that I have but attributed to other issues—could also be related to celiac disease:  fatigue joint pain canker sores numbness or tingling in hands or feet difficulty with coordination anemia headaches neutropenia I never dreamed in a million years she would consider celiac disease. It was a shock to me. It’s definitely not what I went to her for.

      @Rejoicephd, I'm not a doctor, but I experienced severe thiamine deficiency.  Your symptoms seem really familiar.  Malabsorption is a real thing that happens with Celiac.  A multivitamin is not going to prevent nor correct nutritional deficiencies.    Doctors do not recognize nutritional deficiency symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi is not recognized often.  Caused by thiamine deficiency, high dose thiamine supplements or IV administration with other vitamins, minerals and glucose under doctor's care is needed.   Thiamine deficiency is found in anemia.  Thiamine deficiency in the kidneys can result in electrolyte imbalances and cloudy urine.  Thiamine deficiency can cause high blood sugar which can cause cloudy urine.  Dehydration can cause cloudy urine.   I'm linking some PubMed articles.  You see if your symptoms match.  Discuss the possibility of Gastrointestinal Beriberi with one of your specialists soon!  Just to rule it out.  I'm very concerned.   I'm linking some PubMed articles.  You see if your symptoms match.   Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/#ref3 From Section 3: "In conclusion, TD limited to the gastrointestinal system may be an overlooked and underdiagnosed cause of the increasingly common gastrointestinal disorders encountered in modern medical settings. Left unattended, it may progress to wet or dry beriberi, most often observed as Wernicke encephalopathy.". . And... Refeeding Syndrome https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK564513/

      What are your symptoms? What has brought you to the point where you sought celiac disease testing?
