I Just Had The Best Sandwich Ever!

I know I have mentioned this bread before, but I really think it's worth mentioning again.

I just had a pastrami sandwich on mock rye bread and it was the most incredible sandwich ever!! I didn't even have to toast the bread. I got the bread at the Gluten Free Bread Basket in Chester, NY (I know they definately ship).

You seriously won't be able to believe you are eating gluten free bread. I'm not sure if I can possibly describe how good this bread is. I also tried their country sandwich bread... equally as good.

My dad actually went there today and got me a ton of stuff (the breads, muffins, cake, croutons and hot dog buns). I'll report back as I try things.

I just got my shipment today from the gluten-free Bread Basket!! Last time I got the Country Sandwich (White) and this time I got the Mock Rye, Cinnamon Raision and the white.

They are EXCELLENT!!

They taste like real bread - even more so if toasted.

The Rye even SMELLS like rye bread (I think the smell we associate with Rye is the Caraway Seeds and this bread has Caraway in it).

The Cinnamon Raisin is yummy and smells great. They all hold together too.

GOOD STUFF.

Also good is the Ener-G stuff. Open Original Shared Link

On the site is the story of the business which is quite interesting. Makes you realize how dedicated they are. (Same for gluten-free Br. Bskt).

Wow, those look good. How much do they charge for shipping? I looked on their website and couldn't find shipping charges listed. Also, do their breads freeze well? Do you thaw them in the fridge or in the microwave?

(I'm starting to get tired of making EVERYTHING from scratch!)

Not sure about shipping cost, but I put everything in the freezer so hopefully it will freeze well.

As for thawing, I just took out a couple slices and left them on a paper towel for about 10/15 minutes until it thawed and then made my sandwich. :)

And yeah the Rye definately even smells like rye. I don't know how these women do it, but this bread is truly amazing!

Bread, real bread?? :D

The EnerG granola bars are wonderful, but a little too much sugar for me.

This sounds like a great topic for a thread.....Jmunchkin, ok if we hop on????

No, I just had the best sandwich ever ....

Avocado and Tomato on Jalepeno/Cheese Bread

For starters, I made some homemade jalapeno cheese bread. I just followed the recipe for cheese bread on the side of Pamela's Amazing Wheat Free Bread Mix and added the optional jalapenos. The rest was easy. Sliced bread, tomato, and jalapenos, a smidgen of mayo. Oh my gosh! That was a very divine sandwich. (Homegrown tomato is a MUST. The jalapenos were, too) Ummmmmmm!

I am an EXTREMELY picky eater! I had a gluten-free bun early on in the gluten-free diet. It was AWFUL. Gagging awful.

So I was REALLY REALLY skeptical when someone on here said that the Gluten Free Breadbasket breads were really good. I had just about resigned myself to never having bread, rolls, pasta, pancakes, etc ever again in my life.

BUT, I TRIED the "Gluten Free Breadbasket" breads.. And LOW AND BEHOLD they are GOOD. REALLY good texture. I even ate the Cinnamon Raisin WITHOUT toasting!! And WITHOUT butter or jam!

Seriously, the texture is good. I don't know about the buns. Haven't tried them yet (got to get brave).

And my husband just sent for the samplers (2, one for breads only and one for snacks & breads) from Ener-G. Their pretzels are great. REALLY. Will let you know about the bread and rolls when I get them.

Two years ago, I would have called a 9 dollar shipping charge highway robbery, but with gas prices these days, it's not so bad, is it?

Sorry, been MIA for a few days.

But the texture is great!!! I actually took a couple plain slices of the country sandwich bread with me to work this morning and ate them (GASP) PLAIN and UNTOASTED!!!!

I truly can't believe how close this is to real bread.

I'd be shocked if anyone said the didn't like it.

Oh and haven't tried the rolls yet, but I did get some of the hot dog rolls so I will let you know when I try them.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.
