Just caught Oscar's date.....that's what I get for trying to skim thru posts.

...But still.......I DID get a PM from an Oscar :D

Edit: Just looked for it, but then I remembered........it was an e-mail in response to something on the psillie thread......still think it's the same Oscar. Oscar had a last name.........actually........a lot of names!

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:

elye Community Regular

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. :)

What?? There is something else to drink? Who knew? Must go fetch another libation. :lol:

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)

Ya know, a libation sounds good.....we have an opened bottle of wine in the fridge......

It's got to be POeter?? :unsure:

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

EM cooks it as faux porridge?? :unsure:

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:

Jestgar Rising Star

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.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats. 
    • Scott Adams
      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
