:rolleyes: I am not sure who recommended this, but I am pretty sure it was someone on this board. I tried it tonight and it was so GOOD!! Just wanted to say thanks!!

For those who have no clue what I'm talking about.....you can make a pizza crust out of hashbrowns.

I used a pie plate, thinly sliced hashbrowns

Pour some hashbrowns into a lightly Pam'ed pie plate/pizza pan.

Defrost Hashbrowns and press onto the sides of the dish.

I added some garlic powder and oregano and basil to the hashbrowns.

Bake for about 20 min at 350...or until slightly brown and crispy.

Top with pizza sauce, toppings(meat, veggies) and cheese bake for another 10-12 min. and you now have a great quick pizza!! YUM!! :D

I posted about hash brown crust like you described for quiche, but have not tried it for pizza- it sounds yummy ! I will have to try it soon. My kids are probably more upset about not having pizza than any other food. We have tried gluten free pizza crusts (from the mixes) and have not liked them.

sounds yummy- I use potatoes and or onions sliced thin as a crust for quiches and other things like that.. hadn't thought of pizza... but had been debating trying it in a lasagna recipe... layers and all..

I made this again the other day. Made a Ham and pineapple pizza was SOOOO good.

I used regular sauce, but then also added a little bbq sauce (sweet baby ray's) for some extra kick. It was AWESOME!!!

Do you buy frozen hashbrowns or make them from home? If you buy them whih brand do you get?

I use Ore-Ida Hashbrowns..the thinly sliced NOT the country style(chunky). Mr. Dell's is another gluten-free brand that you could use, and I have used before.

I just made this and it was okay. I think next time I will cook the hashbrowns longer and use less sauce but it's still yummie!

Pardon my ignorance: I'm Australian. We have something here called hash browns, but they don't sound much like what you're talking about. Could you please elaborate on what they are? Thanks!

I'm new to celiac disease and this board. Thank goodness for this and other internet resources; I'd still be following a lot of bad advice without them. You people are very supportive and encouraging, and I've learnt a lot from you already.

Just a little about me: I'm 47, supposedly asymptomatic (though I've run a bit of a gamut over the years, I now realise), though definitely coeliac, with blood results over the top and biopsy showing 'severe' damage. Been gluten-free a month now, and loving it - mostly. Still having the odd foggy brained day, but oboy, is this what normal digestion feels like?

My biggest problem is not boring my friends & family, as I'm still excited to realise all the things I CAN eat. They're very patient, but it's not of great moment to them the way it is for me when I find I can adapt another recipe or find a great tasting substitute. Successes so far: home made gluten-free pasta and crepes. Failure: scones (I think you call them biscuits?) which absolutely failed to rise. They made good soft crumbs, though. Dubious: bread, the formula for which I made up as I went. It rose fine and looked fabulous but tasted to me like dry cake. My partner, on the other hand, had no idea it was gluten-free and ate it quite happily, so I guess it was my expectations that made it a dubious success, not the thing itself.

Thanks for being here!

Hashbrowns are potatoes thinly sliced. They are usually fried as a side dish.

I saw a recipe on Foodtv where someone ( I can not remember which show) made a crust using pasta but I bet it would work with shredded potatoes (hashbrowns). this is assuming you can have dairy. Basically make a mixture of hasbrowns, shredded cheese and eggs in a oven ready fry pan. Fry it until it the bottom is crispy then put under the broiler until the top is crispy. I bet it would make an awesome pizza crust. I am going to try it this weekend. Very high calorie though I am sure!

Lima,

Americans have about 5000 versions of cooked/fried potatoes -- its no wonder people get them confused -- even Americans have differing opinions betweem hash browns, home fries, potatoes o brien, etc.

When you grate a potato on a cheese grater, the "pieces" are hash browns (well, they become hash browns with some oil, salt and pepper...)

Hope this helps,

If you can find frozen hashbrown potato patties (like McD's hash browns) they make very good mini-pizzas with even less work. When I was newly diagnosed and feeding my family english muffin pizzas, this was my version of dinner, and everyone pouted when I wouldn't share. :lol:

Hi Lindy! I'm a mad baker myself so one of the first things I did after my endoscopy (even before the official diagnosis) was to head straight for the kitchen & start experimenting with different flours. Do you know about xanthan gum? It replaces gluten in recipes to help bind the starches, aid rising & keep the crumble factor down. You just need to use a little bit, so don't freak out when you see the price. It goes far. Also, run out and get some sorghum flour to use in the bread-- it REALLY helps with the moistness. Bette Hagman & Annalise Roberts have great baking books that will help a lot. I've made both biscuits/scones & yeast bread with enough success that my family ate them with gusto... actually the biscuits were gobbled up in no time, just like the old wheat ones! Now if only all those flours weren't so doggone pricey!

Happy Baking,

Leah

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Thank you for the information ill will definitely bring it into practice .

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
