I'm new to gluten problems. I have been off of them for about 3 months now and feel much better, that is if I don't cheat. I am having so many problems with being bored of the same chicken, veggies, potatoes. Can anyone help me with some good gluten free food. Naturally that is, I have to stay away from Pamela's cookies and gluten-free browinies....not good for the weight. I need to lose about 15lbs still.

Thanks

Shae

You could have some gluten free yogurt, I eat kroger brand, but yoplait is good too.

Lots of different fruits are a good snack.

Add Brown rice to your dishes, its healthier than white.

Fresh Fish.. Salmon ( good for you fats ) Tilapia, and tuna just for some examples.

You can incorporate nuts as long as you can tolerate them and watch your portion size

Hi -

If you browse the recipe forum you'll be able to find some great recipes using naturally gluten-free foods. You can also get a raw cookbook for some new ideas.

I love spaghetti made with spaghetti squash. Pork chops baked with apples are good. Stirfries are another quick favourite for me. You can make almost anything you used to eat (except for the baked stuff) with a few substitutions.

Indian dal, blanched greens, and rice. Tasty, healthy, and quite variable if you have an indian or pakistani grocery in the area.

Gazpacho? Cucumber and yoghurt soup?

I also make garlic potato salad with smoked paprika, no oil, and scallions. Oh, and garlic.

Penzey's spices help food be more interesting. I am great fan of their spice mixes:Greek, Southwestern,Fajita, etc. I use the rubbed sage to make my own turkey sausage. And they are really reasonably priced.

As much as I love to cook, I am still a creature of habit.

I usually have an egg white omelette in the a.m. with salsa and cheese (or gluten-free cereal with bananas and berries)

For snacks during the day, I have yogurt and gluten-free energy bars (glutino)

For lunch, I usually have turkey and pepperjack sandwiches (with lettuce and mayo) (and kinnikinnick bread). I also have celery, carrots, cucumbers, salad, applesauce, Kozy Shack pudding, yogurt, or Lays Staxx potato chips

Snack is again Yogurt or energy bar or applesauce

Dinner is usually baked chicken with veggies (marinated in Annies Tuscany dressing), Tinkyada pasta with Emeril's or Classico sauces, gluten free turkey meatloaf, steak, pork chops, Chelsea's country fried steak, Ian's chicken nuggets, Amy's Mac N Cheese (really any of Amy's meals are good for lunch or dinner), homemade chicken tenders, mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, potatoes au gratin, thai kitchen noodle dinners, shelton's turkey chili, Imagine soups, Progresso's creamy mushroom soup, tostitos and salsa, Delimex Taquitos, Ore Ida Fast Food French Fries, Carl Buddig Luncheon Meats, Homemade steak/chicken tacos/tostadas/burritos.

That is off the top of my head, LOL

Be careful--Amy's has 2 different mac'n'cheeses, and only one of them is gluten-free~

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      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!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
