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.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results. Thank you

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to...

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes...

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
