Recipe please! :)

I figure if you can eat it, so can I ;) ....... I'm just starting this candida thing and need food with flavor. <_<

Oh me-oh-my-oh, it seems like it'd be a challenge to make a bad one. I couldn't believe how varied the recipes were, as far as qtys/ratios of basil leaves, pine nuts, garlic.

Somewhere ....need to find them .. . .I have a few sheets w/ 10-12 classic versions. I think I use the nuttiest one, since the parmesan is a no-no.

And that's not even delving into all the other varieties - seems any leaf/nut combo can be pesto.

But the classic is basil/pine.

I don't make it often enough to remember salt/pepper measurements (one batch lasts me awhile, w/ most put into ice cube tray for freezing, then cubes into freezer bag)

One problem for me was that recipes will measure the basil in cups but it's bought in ounces. There may be a 400% diff in lightly packed vs slightly packed!!!!

If ya have a Trader Joe's, they have a good sized container, 4 oz, for <$3.

Many stores sell the teensy ~0.75oz packet for almost $2!!!

So . .. ..<checking kitchen for which scoop I use> I use 1/2 cup of toasted pine nuts w/ the 4oz basil.

Some ppl (most?) toast in a dry skillet, shaking or flipping them around often but that's too much standing for me so I just bake @250F for ~10-12min, starting from cold oven. No idea of the timing for pre-heated. They're done when ya smell 'em.

Got mortar & pestle? :o

Neither do I, so I toss the leaves, toasted nuts & 3-6 cloves of garlic & however much salt&pepper my sheet says (salt = 2x pepper) (maybe I should track down the sheet) & rarely a bit of lemon juice (and sometimes squirting a little on it when using the pesto later) into a food processor.

Hmmmm how much extra virgin olive oil??

Needs a good oil, btw, since it's not cooked & part of the flavor.

I'll guess I'd start w/ maybe 1/4 c evoo (not measured).

Starting amount matters little since once it's all somewhat mixed together the KEY is drizzling evoo thru the hole while pulsing or mixing until the pesto is the desired consistency, which is . ....uhhh . ..blobby? Is that a useful or useless word?

Precise consistency doesn't matter much either because serving consistency gets adjusted when using it.

With pasta, use pasta water. It "wakes up" the pesto to a brighter green. As does a surprisingly small amt of lemon juice.

Besides w/ pasta dishes, I'll coat skinless chicken breasts or salmon before baking - it goes on like frosting a cake. Ohhhhhh SO delish!!!!!!

Yipes I wrote a lot but feel like I forgot sumfin .. . .. :huh:

Soooooooo many variations - wouldn't surprise me if there's a dandelion greens w/ pistachios version. Or 20 of those.

And I bet all are tasty too!!

shooooo! I finally caught up again. Full of chicken chili and hoping ready to get going

My grandmother used to eat dandelion greens!!!! I remember helping her to pick the greens. As a treat she let me help her fix them and eat them......a huge bag boiled down to almost nothing....and after all of that they were nasty! <_<

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.

      @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 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!

      @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 the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?
