Progresso makes a gluten free cream of mushroom soup. I can't use it because of a soy intolerance but am going to try making it from a recipe in Bette Hagman's Gluten Free Gourmet because my husband likes hot dish too! :D

Hey RM,

The only recipe I've found in any of my gluten-free books so far is this one from Living Gluten Free for Dummies:

"Cream of" soups: Use chicken broth and sour cream or half-and-half. Remember to add the food the soup is cream of - mushroom, celery, potato, and so on - to complete the soup.

best regards, lm

Progresso has a gluten free "Creamy Mushroom" soup (not Cream of Mushroom). It is good...I heat it on the stove and thicken it a little bit with some gluten free flour.

Health Valley has a Cream of Mushroom and Cream of Chicken that are both gluten-free.

We use the Progresso ALL the time in our house....as do my parents and in-laws when they make casseroles and such for me.

Can you use rice flour as a thickener or would it be better to use corn starch. I'm actually trying to make a whitesauce as a base for a cheese sauce. I'm always leary of corn starch breaking down if it gets overcooked. What would you suggest?

My favorite thickener for sauces and gravies is sweet rice flour. So far, I haven't had any problems with it...

What is this "hot dish" you speak of? Never heard of it. lm

In general, I use one of the pre-packaged gluten free flour mixes (something along the lines of Bob's Red Mill, Arrowhead Mills, etc. etc.) I rarely use a "single" flour unless I'm making a certain recipe (i.e., for baking, when it calls for specific flours). I substitute "my" flour for anything that generally calls for flour :) Makes it easier on me that way!

I frequently use potato flour, expecially if I'm making a chowder or gravy.

Oh-oh-oh - your suggestion gave me a great idea. :)

I took some dehydrated toasted onions* (about 1T) in about a cup of chicken broth.

I simmered this for a while to soften up the onions.

Meanwhile, I put some Bob's Red Mill all-purpose gluten-free flour blend in some water and whisked it smooth (about 1-1/2 T in about a half cup water).

I added this to the hot broth while whisking, and this thickened it up well.

Now, this in itself would have been good.... BUT...

I had some of AndreaB's cashew cheese in the fridge, and added some of this (about 3/8 cup),. It melted and blended in with the thickened broth. Added some salt, too.

I poured this in a casserole dish over cooked green beans and had a GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE - gluten-free, corn-free, dairy-free, soy-free. I put this in the oven until bubbly.

I haven't had this casserole in years. I'm so excited!

The onions are Rokeach brand All Natural Toasted Onion - has only onions in it. I bought it at a Jewish grocery store and it's labeled "may be used for passover" which means there's no hidden corn in it (for those of you who have a corn-allergy).

Valda,

That is so wonderful! I think your recipe sounds great....you really have to think outside of the box when you have multiple issues...and it sounds like you are doing that wonderfully!

(at one point last year, for 6-8 months, I was reacting severely to all but about 8 foods, and my reactions included all dairy, soy, eggs, all grains-including rice, etc., potatoes, legumes, corn, etc. so I can sympathize. its so important to find things that "work.")

I am now able to use the above-mentioned cream of X soups, and it has been so nice to make "normal" recipes, just modifying it.

Enjoy green bean casserole! :) :) :)

I'm glad you asked the question about cream of mushroom soup, the responses you received will be so helpful to me to prepare things for my daughter who has celiac and crohn's disease.

Good luck with you meals and health.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
