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.

Hormel has some microwave products that are gluten free (buy them off the shelf- not frozen)

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 .

Guest nini

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?!

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/

      Hi, @Ginger38, I've had shingles in the past.  I understand how miserable you're feeling.   Not only do i have the chickenpox virus lurking about, I also have the cold sore virus that occasionally flares with a huge cold sore on my lip when stressed or exposed to gluten.  The virus lives dormant in the nerves on the left side of my face.  It causes Bell's Palsy (resulting in drooling).  The cold sore virus is also in my eye.  My eye swells up and my vision is diminished permanently whenever I have a flare, so it's of the utmost importance to keep flares away and treat them immediately if they do happen so I don't lose any more vision.   I take the amino acid supplement L-Lysine.  Lysine messes with the replication of viruses, which helps the body fight them off.   I haven't had an outbreak for several years until this year when exceptionally stressed and contaminated, it flared up again. Lysine has been shown to be beneficial in suppression of viruses like the cold sore virus (a herpetic virus), the chickenpox virus (also a herpetic virus), as well as the HIV virus, and even the Covid virus.   I also take additional Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) because Thiamine has antiviral properties as well.   For pain, a combination of Thiamine (like TTFD or Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride), with B12 Cobalamine, and Pyridoxine B6 have been shown to have analgesic properties which relieve pain and neuropathy.    The combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B12 really does work to relieve pain.  I take it for back pain from crushed vertebrae in my back.  This combination also works on other pain and neuropathy.   I usually buy a supplement that combines all three and also Riboflavin B2 called EXPLUS online.  However, it's made in Japan and the price with the tariffs added makes it really expensive now.  But the combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and B12 Cobalamine (and Riboflavin B2) still work even if taken separately.   I can't take Tylenol or ibuprofen because of stomach upsets.  But I can take the vitamin combination without side effects.  However, you can take the three vitamins at the same time as other pain relievers for added benefit.  The vitamins help other pain relievers work better. I hope you will try it.  Hopeful you'll feel better quickly. Interesting Reading: Thiamine, cobalamin, locally injected alone or combination for herpetic itching: a single-center randomized controlled trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23887347/ Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ Analgesic and analgesia-potentiating action of B vitamins https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12799982/ A Narrative Review of Alternative Symptomatic Treatments for Herpes Simplex Virus https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10301284/

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.
