I bought the lasagna noodles a little while ago but haven't made any yet because I haven't eaten lasagna withOUT any cheese. Not sure how to do this - any ideas?

Just go with the noodles, sauce, meat, and spinach (yes I do both)?

If you have tried it this way, is it just too squishy?

Go to walmart, get the "real" thing. Kraft puts the "cheese" out in a shaker can. Its the same powder thats in thier mac and cheese boxes. Its gluten-free and many ppl here use it with great success. I have only seen it at Walmart, but you might see it at other grocery stores. It looks like a shaker for putting cheese on popcorn. Often found near the "shelf stable" cheeses.

you are so kidding me right?!

they just make the cheese where you can buy it?

omg, I feel stupid.... I heard that the Kraft cheese powder was gluten-free but then I was thinking about the CC issues since it's in the box with poison (gluten noodles) but you can just buy the cheese?!

thank you *goes to walmart to look for it*

Do you mean RISO pasta?

My husband went to an italian market last weekend and showed up with a bag of Riso Fettucinni. Man, was so expensive...I'm gonna try it this weekend with sundried tomato and basil pesto.

I worked in a restaurant a couple of years back, and OUR RISO pasta was simply pasta that was shaped more like rice....so PLEASE double check before you eat yours! I fear that you may accidentally get glutened! Let me know!

And hey....if it is indeed gluten free, let me know that, too, cuz I wanna get me some :)

Pasta in the shape of rice is called "orzo". Maybe you got the two names mixed up? :)

I love Tinkyada pasta. :D

I was just curious though....does anyone know why when you cook the noodles the water turns sorta cloudy and even sorta thick sometimes? I wasnt a cook at all until I had to go on this diet and in "my previous life" (as I'm calling it now) I ate alot of mac & cheese from the box but the water never turned thick and white like this. Is it just me? :unsure:

Yep--it does make the water more cloudy than regular pasta! I think it's just the nature of rice pasta :blink:

my husband claims that it's more "starchy" and that's why the water is that way, he likes to rinse the noodles after he strains them

WOOO HOOO!!!! I found it. Cooked it tonight with Tinkyada elbow noodles and YUM!!!

Thanks. :D

Ty is the only gluten-free pasta eater at our house. He likes the Tinkyada "Little Dreams". Probably because he can spend the meal counting shooting stars, airplanes, rabbits, etc. and we have plain old noodles or spirals. No Wacky Mac anymore.

Yeah, I know it's usually called orzo, but where I worked, RISO was made from regular pasta. Just wanted tp be sure nobody gets glutened :)

Thanks to everyone who put in ther 2 cents worth!! We made it and the boys LOVED it -and asked for more!! That is all the proof we need!

I am also putting the Kraft cheese in a can on my list...the boys love Mac & cheese, but they just can't get into the Annie's...so we will give that a try...thanks for the ideas!!

      Celiac Disease and Skin Disorders: Exploring a Genetic Connection

      Maybe they can attribute certain skin conditions to either being susceptible to getting Celiac......or the other way around....but I have to ask if certain people are prone to Celiac because of genetics and some people aren't. It's kind of the same thing as what came first.....the chicken or the egg.?

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities. If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering...

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac...

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      Dizziness after eating green beans?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?
