Grilled Cheese And Tomato Soup


Corkdarrr

Recommended Posts

I have been gluten-free for two months now and I haven't had any bread. Really, I'm not craving it at all. So that's good. But I could totally go for a grilled cheese with some tomato soup. MmmMmm good.

So. what's everyone's favorite gluten-free bread out there?

And tomato soup? Are there any gluten-free premade brands that I can just pop open the can, add some milk, and go?

That would be so super.

thanks!

Kinnikkinick is perfect for grilled cheese. Annie's makes a gluten free tomato soup that's pretty good. I had to do the same thing about a month in. :)

I like Pamela's Wheat Free Bread Mix. Smells, tastes and acts very much like wheat bread. I use it to make BLTs, PB&J, toast, really anything. Doesn't crumble or anything. It should work just fine.

I haven't tried making Grilled Cheese with it, but it should work out just fine. Might have to try that out.

I do the same thing as Elonwy. The kinnikinnick makes great grilled cheese, my son loves it. I was feeding him that almost everyday for a bit, as it was the only thing he would eat.

I also used the Amys Tomato soup. I think someone on here also posted a recipe on here too. If I remember correctly is was relatively easy.

oh yeah, I made the Gluten Free Pantrys Sandwich Mix too. That worked well too, not as good as the Kinnikinnick though.

I've made grilled cheese with Ener-G Brown Rice loaf and Light Tapioca. Spread with butter and grilled with cheese, they really aren't bad.

For soup, my favorite is Imagine Foods Tomato Soup in the quart sized aseptic package. It's supposed to be served "as is", but we all like to add a little water - I'm sure milk would be good too.

I also vote for the Kinnikinnick or Gluten Free Panty's French Bread mix.

I haven't had it in a while but Heinz makes a great gluten-free tomato soup. This is imported from ENGLAND and I used to find it in the import food at my grocery store. I had 3 cans the week I found it but now am avoiding nightshades and haven't had it in a while. It tasted just like campbells soup. If you find it call and make certain it is still gluten-free.

Thanks everyone! I think I might just try all the suggestions on one day and purge myself with deliciousness..... :)

when I make grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup I dip Kinnickinick bread in egg (one side only, grill the side dipped in egg put cheese in middle... and I use Amy's Creamy Tomato soup, you don't have to add anything, it's yummy the way it is.

I use challah bread for grilled cheese & I love amy's tomato bisque soup..... I use three different kinds of cheese. I also like the fake rye gluten-free bread for grilled cheese also.

I don't care that it's still in the mid 80s down here...sometimes you just need comfort food! :P

Amy's tomato soup is AWESOME!

I was a big grilled cheese and Campbell's tomato soup girl pre-diagnosis, but I think I've come to like Amy's soup better :P

The BEST bread I have ever eaten is from Whole Foods !! It doesn't taste anything like gluten free bread at all. It tastes like the normal white bread I ate before being diagnosed.

The kind I get is called "White Sandwich bread"

I must have tried every gluten free bread it seems and this one is hands down the best.

I personally love the pacific tomato soup in the original or the roasted red pepper i do believe is the other.. the soup comes in like a carton type thing and you refrigrate the rest. You can get it at kroger and wild oats that I know of.

For Bread I love the gluten free pantry favorite sandwhich bread mix its great I have made some fabulous grilled cheeses with it! I hope this is helpful

I've had the Imagine brand creamy tomato soup - it's pretty good and comes in a carton style which is convenient for taking to work.

I like Food for Life brand bread. My favorites are red rice, black rice and millet. The millet makes a great gilled cheese.

Where do you find gluten-free challah bread or do you make it yourself?

DS just asked for this today and I got the Amy's Creamy Tomato soup and we have the Gluten-Free Pantry French Bread.

I can't wait to try it, too!

Thanks, y'all. You totally made me blow my diet <_<

My grilled cheese made with the gluten-free pantry bread and the Amy's tomato soup was quite tasty, thought!

Hey thanks for the suggestion! It sounded so good I had grilled cheese and tom soup for supper :P

I had Pacific brand roasted red pepper and tomato soup (also in a carton like Imagine brand), with Foods By George english muffin. I zap the muffin (microwave) for 20 seconds each side, then cut in half, flip the ends over (sliced sides out), butter, stick cheese on the inside, and grill.

soooo yummy!

THANKS! :D

Because I teach and my school is freezing, (they love air conditioning!) I love a warm lunch.........hard to keep gluten-free grilled cheese edible that way, though.......

SO I buy pacific's creamy tomato soup (So yummy), zap it in the microwave and crumble Dr. Schar's Pizzirilli crackers on top........then a few slices of cheddar on the side.

YUM! It's my favorite lunch to pack for school

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?
