I had to share this with everyone because it was a wonderful find. The other day, my mother (who does not have Celiac) was looking through the Washington Post's Food section which had an article on gluten free baking. While rooting around the paper, she found that a local restaurant, Chima Steakhouse in Tysons Corner, is hosting a gluten free dinner! The local Celiac organization here in Northern Virginia called tonight to confirm our reservation and see how many family members had Celiac Disease. I was totally blown away! The dinner is coming up, the beginning of next week I think, but if you live in the area and would like to go, feel free to email me at wheeleks@jmu.edu and I can send you the information to get signed up. The Chima Steakhouse line number did not offer any help in making the reservation, it is specifically through the local Celiac group. I am beyond excited for a great gluten free dinner and knew that only people in this group would fully appreciate the magnitude of this event!!! Happy eating to all!!!

My family and I attended this dinner last night. It was a great event and the price was superb (1/3 the regular price). Kudos to the group for organizing it.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
