So what's up with this new trend of saying 'I've got wonderful news!' and then NOT TELLING WHAT IT IS? Didn't they teach you to share in kindergarten?!??!?!?!

Nikki, cooking quinoa?!?! :lol::lol:

I actually like it, but don't cook it at all anymore though since I don't eat many grains. I found it came out best in the pressure cooker. Pressure cookers are even scarier to use though than the quinoa itself, sooooooo

I'd say quinoa is a no go for you :lol:

I sometimes make up a batch of quinoa (I don't bother rinsing it at all - -too lazy), and keep it in the fridge for heating up in the morning as a hot cereal. Both my kids love it as a porridge, with milk and a bit of honey or brown sugar. It sort of has a nutty taste.. . . . . . yum.

We buy Bob's Red Mill--it is already rinsed. When making it, the secret that we have found is in choosing the liquids. You add one part whole quinoa to two parts liquid, then bring to a boil and simmer for about 15 minutes.

Plain water works from a physical perspective, but the result is rather bland. To enhance the flavoUr, use something other than water as part of the liquid. We have used, and like and continue to use, one tbsp of VH gluten-free Soya Sauce in a cup of fluid. White wine also makes a good flavoUr enhancer. Hmm...must try Cabernet Sauvignon sometime. Jess, maybe you could try some red wine, if you have any left over after making pudding. :huh:

Chicken or beef broth would also liven up the quinoa.

Momma Goose, yes, it is good to see you being silly again. :)

When I was in grad school, in Utah, good beer was hard to come by (the reason why we made our own). Periodically I'd road trip to Colorado, where the was a handy liquor juuuust on the other side of the state line. I'd fill up my car and drive home. My drinking buddy came over one day and opened my frig. I had at least 6 cases of beer, and a bottle of ketchup. And nothing else. B)

My Gaaaawd!!!!!!!!!!! JOOLS cooking quinoa in a pressure cooker??????...........run for your lives!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did cook it in stock as it has an air ofnothingness aboot it - BUT methinks TOO much fluid and it greedily soaked it all up and proceeded to go to gruel.

Yeah!, some red wine!!!! Isuppose it could work like Jess's pudding! :wacko: ......and after a while yer wouldn't even care if it was slop :lol:

yyYYYYAAAAAAAWWWWwwwnnnnnnn

Woke up a little after midnight and I've been awake since. It's rainy here, with a high probability of snuggly cats. It'd be a perfect day to call in sick......but it wouldn't do me any good in the long run, so may as well go in.

      Celiac Disease and Skin Disorders: Exploring a Genetic Connection

      Maybe they can attribute certain skin conditions to either being susceptible to getting Celiac......or the other way around....but I have to ask if certain people are prone to Celiac because of genetics and some people aren't. It's kind of the same thing as what came first.....the chicken or the egg.?

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities. If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering...

      Celiac Disease Patients Face Higher Risk of Systemic Lupus

      What kind of practitioner did the blood test? Was this a medical doctor, a naturopathic doctor, a GI doc? I would certainly follow up with them and ask why they advised you not to eat red meat. I mean, it could be something like they, themselves, are a vegetarian and give that advice to everyone. Have you had an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel...

      Dizziness after eating green beans?

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees. People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits. Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease. Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of...

You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      I found out the age of 68 that I am a celiac. When I was 16, I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 I was put on a medication because I was told I had fibromyalgia.   going to Doctor’s over many years, not one of them thought to check me out for celiac disease. I am aware that it only started being tested by bloodwork I believe in the late 90s, but still I’m kind of confused why my gallbladder my joint pain flatulent that I complained of constantly was totally ignored. Is it not something that is taught to our medical system? It wasn’t a Doctor Who asked for the test to be done. I asked for it because of something I had read and my test came back positive. My number was quite high.Are there other people out here that had this kind of problems and they were ignored?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to celiac.com, @EndlessSummer! Do you react to all vegetables or just specific kinds or families of them? What you describe with green beans sounds like it has an anaphylaxis component. Like you, walnuts are a problem for me. They will often give me a scratchy throat so I try to avoid them. Does it matter if the vegies are raw or will-cooked in how you react to them?
