I wouldn't say its close to the real thing--not a soft thick crust. It is thinner, maybe between chewy and crispy, depending on how long you cook it. That aside, I really like using the crust alot. I probably use it most of the time for me because its 1. fast (no yeast to deal with etc) and 2. tastes good. However, if you are going to be *really* picky about texture etc... you might want to try a yeast based mix first.

I use it exclusivly. I have a receipe for one (yeast free) but it is so chewy. It isn't "normal" like Jen said but for me, it works and is very easy.

thank you...last week I tried the Gluten Free pantry french bread/pizza mix, I did exactly what the package said and let it rise for 40 mins in a warm spot, it was a sticky mess, couldn't even roll it out..the whole thing went down the drain!

does the Chebe make a big enoyh crust for 3 ppl??

Bette Hagman has an excellent recipe for pizza crust that is really easy to make and turns out absolutely delicious. It's the closest thing to "normal" pizza that we've tried. Even my husband enjoys this treat, my friends couldn't even tell the difference (and the one girl works at Pizza Hut). If you want the recipe, PM me. It's the Easy Pizza recipe in Bette Hagman's Gluten Free Gourmet Cookbook. I didn't like the Chebe crust, so after about 10 different recipes, this is the one I settled on.

Hmm, I'd say chebe is more for 2 people/adults. What do you think Kate?

I was a pastry/bread baker pre-diagnosis and made homemade pizza every Sunday night for my family. It took me 3 years (and MANY failed/nasty crusts) to come up with a recipe that even my father (who does not have celiac and is probably the pickiest eater on the planet) likes. If you are interested-send me an email and I will get the recipe to you!

Re: Chebe-I think it makes a decent breadstick, but not a great pizza crust

I actually really like Chebe, but my favorite is Cause Your Special World Famous Pizza Crust (or something like that). Mmmmm...

Used to eat Chebe until I found out I was also allergic to dairy and eggs. Can I make a decent crust with the mix by substituting for the eggs and cheese (asked for on some packages of Chebe)? I don't want to buy it and try it if you'all have already concluded it doesn't work. Thanks!

I make it without dairy. I just use rice milk and leave out the cheese. I'm thinking an egg replacer wouldn't be too much of a problem, but I'm not an expert on that...

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
