Help am out of ideas! :o

Lately I have been getting really bored of the usual dishes I eat and I would be so grateful if anyone has some quick and easy gluten free and dairy free meal ideas and recipes.

Thanks :D

Ham Chowder;

Dice pre-cooked old fashioned ham

Put into a pot half full of water, add one or two bay leaves.

Simmer while you peel and dice potatoes

Remove bay leaves, add potatoes

Add finely chopped onions and dried parsley and ground pepper (do not add salt!)

Just before you serve add a mixture of potato four and water to thicken the chowder (can use milk if you are not dairy free)

Serve with a warmed gluten free bun

Also www.glutenfreeda.com is offering a 90 day free subscription. They are an oline gluten free recipe site. They have 30 minute meals. Plus tons of other recipes. Not sure if that link will work, first time I have tried to hyperlink anything.

Just tonight I fixed a meal my husband and I both liked a lot...

Seasoned chicken nuggets:

chicken breasts, deboned, cut into 1" pieces

fried in a small amount of oil until cooked and browned.

sprinkle with a seasoned salt - I made my own (salt, pepper, paprika, parsley, oregano)

I added a little water under the chicken and stirred to moisten the seasoning and kept it hot on a low burner.

green beanswith sundried tomatoes and red bell peppers

I moistened a few sundried tomatoes and then cut in small pieces. Added these and a few large pieces of red bell pepper to the pan of frozen green beans and let them cook along with the beans. When done I cut the bell peppers into smaller pieces, and added a little salt and olive oil.

gluten-free biscuits

Sorry, no recipe - I sort of made it up - but they were good so will have to figure out the measurements next time.

One of my all-time favorites is "Diet Coke Chicken."

I don't really have a recipe... I just toss a bunch of stuff in the crockpot and simmer all day.

Basically:

Chicken. (I use boneless skinless breasts, but you could use whatever you want)

Then I mix up some BBQ sauce (gluten-free of course) with some ketchup, and add some diet coke - and mix it up well, to taste.

The diet coke tenderizes the heck out of the chicken.

I shred it a few hours in...and then let the shreds soak up the sauce.

When it's time for dinner, I serve on gluten free rolls, along with corn and fries. My family loves this!

Check out allrecipes.com. They have everyday meals and then it breaks them down into the time it takes to prepare them. They have a ton of 30 minute meals. Just browse through and click on ones that you think might be gluten free. Most are already gluten free, and if they're not they can be easily adapted. Allrecipes.com has literally saved my dinner many, many times. I love that site.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
