Gluten Free Soups?

Does anyone know of a gluten free soup? Soup used to be my favourite food, and I miss it. Or does anyone have a good recipe for soup?

Thanks!

Several of the Progresso varieties are gluten-free. Soup is generally pretty easy to make and if you make it yourself you know it is gluten-free.

Here's a couple:

Easy Cream of Tomato Soup:

1 Part Ragu 'Old World' Pasta Sauce

2 Parts Milk

I usually add a tablespoon of butter for a richer taste; and when I have it on hand I stir in a tablespoon of cream; but even without, its great. Reminds you of Campbells Tomato Soup and so good with a grilled cheese sandwich.

Chicken Noodle Soup:

Whenever we have chicken and noodles, we always have a lot leftover because there are only two of us. After dinner, I add two or three cans of chicken broth to the chicken and noodles, and whatever veggies we had like carrots or peas or chopped up california blend, a little finely chopped onion and some celery if I have it, then give it a quick stir and put in the fridge. Makes a great quick lunch.

Watkins also have 3 gluten free Soup and Gravy Bases which I always keep on hand. They are Chicken, Beef and Cream. The Cream base makes a good Potato Soup with some celery and onion added; and also New England Clam Chowder. (With Watkins I always taste as I go because too much of the base makes it too strong)

Hope this helps...we love soup too.

I'm also a soup lover; and that was a big thing for me to find gluten free soups too.

As mentioned, Progresso has a lot of gluten-free soups. They will clearly label, so just read the ingredients.

Wolfgang Puck also has a lot of gluten free soups. The french onion soup is my favorite.

Heinz also has a tomato soup that tastes just like the Campbell's one I missed. It's not in the regular soup isle, but rather in the international isle with the products from England.

Open Original Shared Link has many gluten free soups. This link goes directly to their Special Diets Gluten Free list, and they have much more to offer than soups.

I've used the Pacific Brands without reaction but read the labels carefully. I've found products by them that have wheat starch but claim to have no wheat protein and therefore is gluten-free.

Their organic French Onion soup is listed as gluten-free. When I clicked on the nutrition info it listed: Filtered water, organic onions, natural sauteed onion concentrate (onions, salt, butter, onion powder, yeast extract, natural flavor), white wine concentrate, organic flavor (organic onion flavoring, organic sunflower oil), organic cane sweetener, sea salt, autolyzed yeast extract, organic garlic powder, carrageenan. Contains milk and wheat.

They also have this statement with some of their products: This product is gluten free. Gluten Free (By definition this means less than 10 ppm gluten.)

I also found this in their FAQ: We also have produced products that contained wheat in the form of wheat fiber, but not wheat gluten since there is no protein present in the fiber (gravy formulas prior to 2007, and Organic French Onion Soup).

I personally like this brand because they give you a lot of information about their ingredients and are clear (at least on their website) about what they mean by gluten-free since there is not a regulatory definition in the US right now.

The Pacific Foods creamy tomato is the best tomato soup I've ever had. They have a butternut squash that's good too. Imagine foods has a bunch of gluten-free soups as does Amy's and Health Valley. There is a lentil and a veggie soup that are really good (I think it's Amy's)

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      By Russ H · Posted

      Do you have the standard range for the test results you received? A level of anti-tTG2 antibodies at least 10x the standard range is almost certainly (>98%) due to coeliac disease. Moderately raised levels can be caused by other conditions as well as coeliac disease. Accuracy of the No-Biopsy Approach for the Diagnosis of Celiac Disease in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis It is possible to have latent or early stage coeliac disease without histological changes visible by microscope. As has been suggest in this thread, if the repeat test comes up negative and serology is high, request an HLA genetic test from your specialist. Only 40 % of the population carries an HLA gene variant enabling the development of coeliac disease - if you test negative for this, it is quite unlikely that you have coeliac disease.

      The Struggle Has Overtaken Me

      Hi @Ginger38, By now you know that these things improve without gluten. I once saw an interview with a corporation executive where he proudly declared that his wheat products are more addictive than potato chips. Dr Fuhrman (Eat to Live) said find foods that are friendly to you to be friends with.

      Hi @CC90 Ah... that is very interesting.  Although it is very annoying for you to have to go through it all again, I would say that almost sounds like an admission that they didn't look far enough last time?   I could be wrong, but I would not be at all surprised if they find something on the next attempt.  Coeliac damage can be very patchy, as I understand it, so that's why my own gastroenterologist always likes to point out that he's taken lots of samples!  In the kindest possible way (you don't want to upset the person doing the procedure!) I'd be inclined to tell them what happened last time and to ask them in person to take samples lower down, as  if your health system is anything like the one in my country, communication between GPs, consultants and hospitals isn't always very good.  You don't want the same mistake to be made again. You say that your first endoscopy was traumatic?  May I ask, looking at your spelling of coeliac, was this done at an NHS hospital in England?  The reason for the question is that one of my NHS diagnosed friends was not automatically offered a sedative and managed without one.  Inspired by her, I tried to have an endoscopy one time, in a private setting, without one, so that I could recover quicker, but I had to request sedative in the end it was so uncomfortable.    I am sorry that you will have to go through a gluten challenge again but to make things easier, ensure you eat things containing gluten that you will miss should you have to go gluten free one day. 😂 I was told to eat 2 slices of normal wholemeal bread or the equivalent every day in the weeks before , but I also opted for Weetabix and dozens of Penguin chocolate biscuits.  (I had a very tight headache across my temple for days before the procedure, which I thought was interesting as I had that frequently growing up. - must have been a coeliac symptom!)  Anyway, I do hope you soon get the answers you are looking for and do keep us posted.

      Hi Cristiana   Yes I've had the biopsy results showing normal villi and intestinal mucosa.  The repeat endoscopy (requested by the gastro doc) would be to take samples from further into the intestine than the previous endoscopy reached.

      Transglutaminase IgA is the gold-standard blood test for celiac disease. Sensitivity of over 90% and specificity of 95–99%. It rarely produces false positives.  An elevated level means your immune system is reacting to gluten.  Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) does not typically cause high levels of tTG-IgA. Unfortunately the protocols for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease are aimed at proving you don't have it, leaving you twisting in the wind. Genetic testing and improvement on a trial gluten free diet, also avoiding milk protein, will likely show improvement in short order if it is Celiac; but will that satisfy the medical system for a diagnosis? If you do end up scheduling a repeat endoscopy, be sure to eat up to 10 grams of gluten for 8 - 12 weeks.  You want  to create maximum damage. Not a medical opinion, but my vote is yes.
