Quinoa

Just thought I'd share this with everyone.....if you haven't tried Quinoa flakes, definately give them a shot. The added perk is that they are CHEAP! I bough a box for $3, and it's lasted two weeks.

I've used Quinoa flakes for mock oatmeal cookies before, but this week I used them to make hot cereal. It has a texture similar to grits or cream of wheat, and has a very mild flavor that you can make savory or sweet. My kids are even eating it, I just add butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. I have found it to be very easy on my stomach, I seem to have trouble tolerating heavy foods in the morning.

I also made pancakes this week with Quinoa flour, and the kids ate them! It did have a bit of an aftertaste, but it's much more nutritious than the rice flour I was using. Definately give this grain a go, it's my new favorite food find!!!

I second that!! :D

Quinoa flakes are yummy! I've been using it in just about anything I'd normally use breadcrumbs for as well. And yes, it is WAY cheaper than anything else I've found!!

(I love to bake a chicken breast, with dijon mustard on it, then sprinkle crushed corn tortilla chips with the quinoa flakes on em...kinda like shake n' bake!!)

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
