Gluten Free Soups?


Lissa

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)

Thank you all, I can't wait to have soup again!

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
