Hi everyone, I'm going nuts looking for a good recipe or a brand of bread that I can buy to use for sandwiches and veggie burgers. Does anyone have anything that they really like and would like to recommend? Thanks. :rolleyes:

I love the Kinnikinnick brand. Their italian white is fantastic, like all of our breads it needs to be zapped and or toasted but it has the texture of bread not cardboard and doesn't fall apart. They also make a frozen pizza shell that is flaky and doughy and is also good for cream cheese and jelly. Their hamburger and hot dog buns are good also and make sure you pick up and try their version of a sandwhich cookie, chocolate and vannila are both good for eating plain, dunking and crumbing for ice cream and pie crusts. Others will be on with their fav's I am sure so I'll stop now. :)

Although I have never tried it, I have heard people rave about Kinnikinnick bread. I use Grainless baker, but that may not be in your area.

If you feel up to baking, I used this one and thought it turned out great. So far, it's the only one that my daughter will eat even if it's not toasted. (She preferred her wheat bread toasted, too)

At this point, my daughter is the only one that has to eat gluten-free (son is being tested). The rest of us are eating gluten-lite. We all try her gluten-free items and help pick out the versions that are most like the prediagnosis, gluten-filled items. The rest of the family agrees, that so far, this is the best bread.

I use Chebe brand bread mixes, they are very simple to make and they are delicious, once I make them, the whole family goes nuts, I can't keep the bread in the house and you can freeze the dough to use it at a later time, they have a website, I believe it is chebe.com. Check it out and let us know what you think about it. You get to add your own spices, and cheeses you want too.

Kinnikinnick is great, as others have mentioned. My favorite bread recipe is posted Open Original Shared Link. It is from the book "Open Original Shared Link" by Elizabeth Barbone, which I also heartily recommend.

Breads from Anna mixes are amazing. Also Against the Grain bagels, baguettes and rolls are amazing. You can buy them in Northeast Whole Foods. I don't know about the rest of the country. They are made in Bratteboro VT and I think there is a website.

I 2nd the Grainless Baker. I had a delicious turkey with swiss sandwich on mock rye today for lunch with their bread. No toasting and crumbling. And last night I had a yummy grilled cheese with it.

If you want a mix, I like the Anna breads.

I also love Breads by Anna. She came to a local celiac support group meeting last night with samples of 6 of her bread mixes. If you want to bake your own yeast or quick breads, I recommend her mixes. You can make sandwich breads or burger buns from her mixes. She also makes an easy to prepare pie crust.

However, if you want to order premade breads that last at least a year unopened on the pantry shelf or several months in the freezer after opening, I recommend Ener-G's Seattle Brown bread, hamburger buns and hotdog buns. They also have a great Corn Loaf (tastes like sour dough), Harvest Loaf (very dark and sweet) and Brown Rice with Sweet Potato English Muffins. Unfortunately Ener-G has developed a bad rep, because they offer their (HORRIBLE) rice and tapioca loaves in nation wide stores. Meanwhile all the other great breads they make are only available online for many people. Fortunately I live in Seattle, where Ener-G has their bakery. So I can walk into their bakery and see everything they offer, sample products and get discount 'sale' products. They also offer monthly online 'sales'. Also several Seattle area health food stores carry the better tasting Ener-G Breads I mentioned (Seattle Brown, etc.).

I have to recommend Kinnikinnick. Our whole family is gluten-free and have tried lots of different breads. So far theirs seems the best. Plus, they make yeast-free/egg-free/milk-free breads. Im sure you could make a good bread with the right recipe, but we are pretty busy and don't have time to experiment. We usually buy two dozen loaves at one time and freeze them. To thaw we bought a toaster that has that defrost/toast option, so its easy to make sandwiches, etc.

      Welcome to the forum, @Judy M! Yes, he definitely needs to continue eating gluten until the day of the endoscopy. Not sure why the GI doc advised otherwise but it was a bum steer.  Celiac disease has a genetic component but also an "epigenetic" component. Let me explain. There are two main genes that have been identified as providing the "potential" to develop "active" celiac disease. We know them as HLA-DQ 2.5 (aka, HLA-DQ 2) and HLA-DQ8. Without one or both of these genes it is highly unlikely that a person will develop celiac disease at some point in their life. About 40% of the general population carry one or both of these two genes but only about 1% of the population develops active celiac disease. Thus, possessing the genetic potential for celiac disease is far less than deterministic. Most who have the potential never develop the disease. In order for the potential to develop celiac disease to turn into active celiac disease, some triggering stress event or events must "turn on" the latent genes. This triggering stress event can be a viral infection, some other medical event, or even prolonged psychological/emotional trauma. This part of the equation is difficult to quantify but this is the epigenetic dimension of the disease. Epigenetics has to do with the influence that environmental factors and things not coded into the DNA itself have to do in "turning on" susceptible genes. And this is why celiac disease can develop at any stage of life. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition (not a food allergy) that causes inflammation in the lining of the small bowel. The ingestion of gluten causes the body to attack the cells of this lining which, over time, damages and destroys them, impairing the body's ability to absorb nutrients since this is the part of the intestinal track responsible for nutrient absorption and also causing numerous other food sensitivities such as dairy/lactose intolerance. There is another gluten-related disorder known as NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just, "gluten sensitivity") that is not autoimmune in nature and which does not damage the small bowel lining. However, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It is also much more common than celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS so, because they share common symptoms, celiac disease must first be ruled out through formal testing for celiac disease. This is where your husband is right now. It should also be said that some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease. I hope this helps.

      My husband has had lactose intolerance for his entire life (he's 68 yo).  So, he's used to gastro issues. But for the past year he's been experiencing bouts of diarrhea that last for hours.  He finally went to his gastroenterologist ... several blood tests ruled out other maladies, but his celiac results are suspect.  He is scheduled for an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 2 weeks.  He was told to eat "gluten free" until the tests!!!  I, and he know nothing about this "diet" much less how to navigate his in daily life!! The more I read, the more my head is spinning.  So I guess I have 2 questions.  First, I read on this website that prior to testing, eat gluten so as not to compromise the testing!  Is that true? His primary care doctor told him to eat gluten free prior to testing!  I'm so confused.  Second, I read that celiac disease is genetic or caused by other ways such as surgery.  No family history but Gall bladder removal 7 years ago, maybe?  But how in God's name does something like this crop up and now is so awful he can't go a day without worrying.  He still works in Manhattan and considers himself lucky if he gets there without incident!  Advice from those who know would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.
