I've never run across a corn tortilla brand that wasn't gluten-free. I use Mission brand usually, and never had a problem. The sauce I make myself- here's a great enchilada sauce without flour, much better than ones with flour IMO.

In a saucepan, sautee 1/2 small yellow onion and 2 cloves of garlic (or use a little garlic powder if you'd rather) in 1 tablespoon olive oil.

In a blender, put 1 14 oz can tomato sauce, the sauteed onions and garlic, 2 tsp cumin, 1/4 cup ground chili (use mild, medium or hot ground chili depending on your preference), 1 tsp salt, a pinch of Mexican oregano (fresh is best but dried is fine) and blend until smooth. Pour into the same saucepan and simmer until desired thickness is reached. You should taste it and add more salt if desired.

This makes a very flavorful sauce because there is no flour to dilute the flavors. If you prefer, you can add some chicken stock and corn starch to subdue it, but I prefer it full- strength.

I put a recipe on the "enchilada sauce" entry in gluten-free Foods, Products, etc... It's easy to make.

Pastor Dave's wife here,

This is an old family recipe I have converted. I take corn tortilla's and layer them with sauce and cheese, cook for 20 min and have a wonderful meal that is great for company.

Sauce recipe:

1 container Daisy sour cream

1 can canned chicken (including broth)

1 cup milk (or substitute)

2 cans chopped green chilies

1/2 cup water

heat on stove until simmering and well-mixed

I use lots of chedder cheese, but I am a cheddar cheese addict. I think the original recipe of my grandmothers called for one to two cups of cheese over the top. I layer the cheese with the tortillas and then add lots to the top (makes a full casserole dish.)

If you like a red chilie sauce Las palmas is gluten-free. My mother cooked with it, I cook with it, I guess I grew up with it. All my relative love it, especially when I use the medium hot! I live in CA so I hope you can find it in your town.

      Thank you for sharing this — it’s really important. The FDA is actively seeking public input on improving gluten and ingredient labeling, which could directly impact how people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity shop and stay safe. Clearer labeling would help reduce accidental gluten exposure and make it easier to identify hidden sources of gluten in foods. I encourage everyone here who is affected by celiac or gluten sensitivity to read the announcement and submit their own suggestions — real lived experience matters and can influence policy changes that benefit the whole community.

      A low tTG is great news, but it doesn’t always mean the small intestine has fully healed yet—iron and vitamin D absorption can lag behind for months or even years, especially in young children. Many kids need supplements for a period of time while the gut repairs itself, and that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be lifelong. Morning stomach pain is also commonly reported in celiac kids and can be related to slow healing, reflux, motility, or even low iron itself. It sounds like the supplements are clearly helping, which is reassuring, and ongoing monitoring with her doctor can help determine when (or if) doses can be reduced as absorption improves. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      A lot of gluten-free packaged foods do rely on extra sugar, starches, or sodium to replace texture and flavor, so focusing on simpler options makes sense. Many people do better with naturally gluten-free proteins like eggs, plain yogurt, nuts, seeds, hummus, beans, and minimally processed protein bars with lower added sugar and higher fiber. Pairing those with whole foods can help you feel more “normal” without triggering symptoms. Subscription boxes can be hit or miss, so checking labels carefully and using them as an occasional supplement—rather than a staple—often works best.

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.
