Well I had my first outback experience! Yummy, I had the alice springs chicken with a baked potato. Now I don't usually EVER eat things smothered in cheese and bacon. BUT! I haven't eaten a decent meal out since I was diagnosed last month, so I was all over that like a rat on a cheeto!!!!! The server said "do you mind if I ask what gluten is" ugh, I didn't want to get into it so I just briefly described it to her. I got a tad paranoid, so I asked the manager (who just happened to pass by the table) if he could make sure my ticket was marked gluten free. She had no way of knowing when she brought the bread that I have celiac, but she almost slammed it right down in front of me, I caught a big whiff and it smelled so good :( To sum it up thanks to all for the advice, I had a great experience, I left fat, dumb, and happy.... :D ( and most important not sick!)

Oooohhhh... Glad you had such a great experience (minus the bread incident). That's become one of my all-time favorite restaurants over the past year. Yum. Did you have the chocolate thunder?

Nope next time I will though...I was stuffed, plus I had my kids, I didn't want to get them all sugar buzzed before bed.... :blink:

Ah... We made that mistake with Tori once. Never again! However, I have to admit, the chocolate thunder is worth the hyperactivity. He he he.

Yay! I was just going to dig up that other thread to ask how your dinner went.

I'm glad that everything went well, despite your server's lack of knowledge on the gluten-free menu.

Definitely get the Thunder next time - or at least bring it home with you for later!!!

:blink: Okay, we went again tonight. I was too busy to put together a huge fuss tonight, plus this damned insomnia has me wiped out! Anyhow....the food took forever, so being a server before I knew they screwed up somehow. When the food finally came we had 2 managers hovering over us offering us all this free dessert, and our waitress just disappeared from that point on. It all turned out okay in the long run so no big deal. I'm glad they took the time to correct whatever it was that happened instead of bringing it out to the table with a bun on it....I think that may have been irritating...and why every time we go, do they put the little cutting board with bread on it right in front of me? Lol....Eating out certainally is interesting now isn't it...

Oh I got that last time I went! I also normally wouldn't order chicken smothered with cheese and bacon, and to be honest had never even glanced at it on the menu. But after hearing everyone on here rave about it I decided to give it a try. YUMMY!!!!! So not something I would think I'd like but damn that is good! LOL!

The first time I went I had the alice chicken, yummmyyyy :P I actually made it at home and it was very easy to do. The honey mustard sauce I got was frenchs, not as good as the outbacks but it was good enough :D

If that honey mustard sauce is the same as their honey mustard salad dressing.. you can get the receipe on the site topsecretreceipes.com. I made it last week and it was out of this world. Someone posted the thread on here about that web site.. you can get a lot of receipes free, some you have to pay for.. but the salad dressings at the outback are free!

Sure.. here is the recipe

Outback Steakhouse Honey Mustard Dressing.. I am not sure if its the exact same thing.. I havent had the real one in a while.. but here is the recipe that I made

1/2 cup mayo

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons dijon mustard

Combine all ingredients. Cover and chill.

Thats it. pretty simple. I really like it. Like I said, I am not sure how close it is to the Outback dressing.. but I find this great.

Enjoy!

I make these great chicken tenders in the oven..I mix the gluten-free gorilla crunch cereal and gluten-free corn flakes, crush them up nice and fine add a little salt, pepper, garlic powder..then dip the chicken tenders in honey, coat with the cereal then bake in the oven till done and crispy[high oven, around 375-400]..I put them on a cookie sheet with the non stick Reynolds wrap, spray extra cooking spray cause the honey is so sticky..then make the dip on the side to dunk..YUMMY!!

I´m glad you have good experiences with Outback. I went on wednesday this week and I almost cry when I saw that amazing bread on the table. I took a deep breath and ask for the gluten free menu. I order the outback special with a cesar salad...... when the salad came.... it has croutons in it, I wanted to kill someone. They change it and brought one without bread. For dessert: instead of "the thunder", I ordered the sundae and it was unbelivable!!!!.

      Oral thrush question

      Hi Everyone, I do appreciate your replies to my original post. Here is where I am now in this journey. I am currently seeing a Naturopath. One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD. My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow. She has put me on some digestive enzymes...

      Oral thrush question

      Hi @JulieRe. I just found your post. It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida. I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment. In the meantime, I have been working with a functional...

      Advice while waiting for testing

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct r...

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
