I was strolling the grocery outlet (the one with the rainbow) while on vacation at the beach yesterday. I passed the freezer section, they have amy's dinners!! Rice lasagna!! then today, out of curiosity I went to the one in Salem, they have them too!! This one also had mac n cheese and penne bowls. All gluten-free!! And the best part? They were between $1.50 and $2.00!! I bought them out. I asked the checker, and he said that the guy who orders for the store can order them as long as there is a demand... This MIGHT be the case for all grocery outlets, so go check!! I'm eating one right now!

Yay! I hope you find them. My freezer is bursting at the seams!! I usually don't eat prepackaged food. But this is a good back-up. Mmm yum. I haven't had mac n cheese for 10 months. Until today. Amazing. Yay!

I will check! Maybe they can order Bell & Evans & Kinnikinnick too! :D

For those of you in Oregon and Washington--Fred Meyer usually has the mac&cheese, and Amy's bowls (shepards pie, teryaki chicken, enchilada etc) in their health food area freezer section. I also HIGHLY recommend Lingonberries in Vancouver, (east of SR 500) The entire store is gluten-free and they have everything you can possibly imagine--including gluten-free grown and processed oats for those who want to add them back into their diet. It is owned by a nutritionist and her husband (she has celiac). They are a great resouce. For those who have kids, we are always looking for new members for our ROCK group!!! Let me know if you're interested. Take care.

I do my regular shopping at freddies. But the amy's stuff is super expensive!! Portland is 90 min away. I refuse to drive 90 min for food!! Salem has Lifesource, it's a little store, but they have some specialty gluten-free stuff. Freddies has a ton of stuff, but $1.50 for gluten-free mac n cheese, you can't beat that!!

Oh and the woman who owns lingonberries isn't celiac, she just follows the diet. I met her at the Salem support group meting. That's what she told me anyway, maybe something changed.

I agree, pretty much all of the specialty food is super expensive. I will stock up on certain items when they are on sale-our Wild Oat's has pretty good sales, but for the most part, I alter regular recipes, batch cook and freeze in small containers for my daughter. If you're looking for a good mac&cheese, the Better Homes and Gardens recipe is what I modify. If you want the recipe, I can write down what I do... I was mistaken about Dee. She is a registered dietician who LIVES gluten free, but specializes in diabetes and celiac disease. She was at our home not too long ago and was telling me about certain foods that make her sick, I just assumed....

my daughter loves mac & cheese. I usually just buy the Tinkyada elbows (follow cooking directions - boil water and add a little salt and add pasta. cook for 15 minutes (do not overcook, otherwise it gets mushy -- rinse the pasta under cold water) I add american cheese and milk. She's happy with that.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      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!
