Sandwich Meat


Yenni

Recommended Posts

Yenni Enthusiast

I can't have dairy, so cheese is out. No soy/legumes either. I have been getting Hormel Natural Choice Deli Ham for my sandwich. Getting a little tired of it and would like to find something less processed or not at all processed, but I can't find or come up with any ideas.

I was told there is a pretty natural Chicken Sausage out there but none of the stores carry it in my town and I am not sure of the brand.

Does anyone make their own ham?

I tried to find a rice cheese, but they made dairy cheese on the same machines so that is out too.

Ideas would be great!

Tuna I had forgotten about. I never seem to have much left overs, should work on that. I go through everything so fast.

I do eat cucumber and bell pepers on my sandwish daily. Avocado gives me a stomach ache for some reason although I love it.. I wonder what family sprouts belongs too. Shouldn't be Legumes you'd think. I'll google it.

I'll look into the other ham brands. Thanks to you both!

You can get all kinds of sprouts - I prefer broccoli sprouts, myself. :) But some sprouts do come from beans (mung, in particular) so you'd have to be aware of what kind you were getting.

Jimmy Dean Breakfast Sausages are gluten-free and Purdue makes chicken strips that are precooked and packaged for salads, etc. Not all of the varieties, but some of them are gluten-free.

I realize they're not homemade -but they are alternatives in a pinch. It's easy to get in an eating rut and get tired of things!

I often just bake some chicken plain to cut up. I freeze some and then make a real quick chicken salad - either with salad dressing or mayo..... It's nice to have something I can just grab and go. I usually take some tostitos to scoop up the chicken salad.

I try to avoid deli meats, b/c the deli is always so crowded I don't entirely trust that they'll wipe down the machine to de-contaminate it before they slice mine.

Apple slices with PB are also a big stand by for me. Protein, fruit, and yum all in one.

In a real time cruch I use Hormel's microwavable kid's meal "Weiners and Beans" - only 1 1/2 min. to heat up and pretty filling.

Yeah, I am not doing the meats from the deli. Too paranoid of that and not feeling comfortable enough with this to ask thye to clean of the machine yet. I am the shy type.

Can't do peanut butter and I am allergic to apples so that is out. :P

Thanks for all the suggestions. Man do I eat a lot of Chicken already though . hehe ;)

i was told that all Applegate Frams products are gluten-free. I have many...many products from them with out any problems

They have a good product, but just watch out for cross contamination from the deli slicer.

I love their products too, just be careful about the slicers. I got CC's once because the slicer had been used to cut something I couldn't eat and then they cut my turkey. It was as plain as day to me after I ate it (duh!!) but for some reason I stood right there at the deli and watched her slice away without asking her to clean it!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
