I made spaghetti for dinner and made Chebe breadsticks to go along with them.

OH MY GOD THEY ARE SO GOOD!!!!!

Crusty on the outside and airy and chewy on the inside...almost like real bread!

I added the cheese and baked them on a baking stone (on parchment)

DH and I (ok, mostly me) snarfed all 10 of them.

I make pizza with chebe mixes every week, so I knew how awesome those were, but the breadsticks...

Heaven :wub:

Luckily, cheese has protein :D and so does pepperoni :D and sausage :D I make pizza every Friday to help me keep my sanity!

If I ate nothing but the breadsticks, I would have a problem, but in conjunction with spaghetti and meat sauce, it works fine.

Seriously, I personally find that after lunch and into the evening, most of my hypoglycemia stuff is under control, it's in the morning mostly that I personally have problems if I'm not careful. Actually, I pretty much just snack all day and eat smaller portions at lunch and dinner. With the exception of my chebe binge :P

I don't deny myself anything, I just don't do anything dumb like eat sugar coated donuts for breakfast (I never liked donuts anyway). My college roomate used to eat pop tarts and mountain dew for breakfast, just watching her eat it made me nauseous! That combination first thing in the morning would have killed me!

Here's a list of places in TN that carry Chebe stuff: Open Original Shared Link

My local Wild Oats carry it. I use the red bag for pizza (it really is better than the pizza mix) and the breadstick mix for breadsticks. And for gluten-free, it's not very expensive, I think it's like $3.95 a bag here. The pizza makes like a real size thin crust pizza, too. Not like the dinky kinnikinnick expensive crusts!

Here's a link to online ordering: Open Original Shared Link

regarding the hypothyroid issues - I was just diagnosed with celiac but have had hypothyroid (been on levoxyl) since I got pregnant 2 /12 years ago. Will a gluten free diet fix my thyroid problem and allow me to stop the medication?

Chebe now has a DF/gluten-free focaccia bread!!! mix and an all purpose DF/gluten-free mix which tastes like biscuits and makes into decent buns. The focaccia bread is very good and I add sliced tomatoes, more, fresh this time of year, rosemary, and coarse sea salt.

I have always used the breadstick mix to make two mini french loaves and now I use it to make mini rolls and I add sun dried tomatoes mixed in and on top, I drizzle with olive oil and a little coarse sea salt - very tasty!!!!

I ordered online and got a case (8 packeges) of these, cheaper than in a store and shipping is included, and went a little bread crazy for a few weeks and am calming down but plan on another shipment soon! It is just too good - I don't even crave their pizza as much.

Fat and protein are good friends :)...

Cheese has got a pretty good amount of protein in it, though I don't have numbers in front of me. I'm thinking at least 4 grams protein per ounce for most cheeses like mozzarella and cheddar. You can also get low fat cheese, but make sure it's the 2% kind, the fat free cheeses have a bunch of sugar and salt and crap in them.

I use the original mix and add cheese as they reccomend and follow the on-the-bag instructions for pizza. DH has gotten so used to it that he thinks normal pizza tastes wierd. :)

I think I used the onion/garlic mix for breadsticks. Stripey green bag, I think, but not the pizza one.

The Foccacia is good! It's great dipped in homemade bruschetta (sp?)

I made the breadsticks once and ate way way too many. I felt like a big ball of tapioca for like a week afterwards...but it was worth it.

Chebe is my one exception to my not really ever eating any type of bread rule :P

For the CF folks, make sure you get the packages that are marked CF (obviously)...and the pizza crust is great with just tomatoes, canadian bacon, itailan herbs and olive oil. No cheese needed. :P

DO you guys do the dry mixes or the frozen oven ready dough?

I have only done the mixes. They have frozen? If they do, I didn't look - of course, I only look at gluten-free/CF/DF.

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
