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 .

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?!

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

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
