Just recently diagnosed. I don't have any symptoms but my son did and was diagnosed first. He is only 6 and hasn't had the year of experiance with the good food. Any suggestions on the bread???

Yes! The absolute best gluten-free bread we've had is a homemade recipe found here: Open Original Shared Link

The recipe above is versatile- I make hamburger rolls out of it, and dinner rolls as well. My son takes a PB&J sandwich on the hamburger roll to school every day. It's also forgiving- people make all kinds of substitutions, and it pretty much always works. The only substitution I make is, I use sorghum flour instead of garfava. The ingredient list may look intimidating, but trust me it's WORTH it. I keep the dry ingredients mixed in ziploc bags in the fridge, to pull out when I need it.

The best premade bread in MY opinion is Kinnikkinick, which is in the frozen section at Whole Foods.

What other things are you looking for? I have a really good pizza crust recipe I'll post if you want it. I also have a good chocolate cake/cupcake recipe- much cheaper than buying a mix.

I have two boys- both on a gluten-free diet. One is 4 1/2, the other will be 7 in a month.

IMHO the best premade bread is Kinnikinnick's cheese tapioca bread. It has to be toasted lightly though to taste good. You can get it shipped to you from www.kinnikinnick.com. Their donuts and bagels are also amazing, so stock up.

You may also want to try the Gluten Free Pantry's favorite sandwich bread. Its really good and its super easy to make.

I agree about the above bread recipe--it really is the best.

But a very close second (and a WAY faster and easier recipe!!!) is this (and start to finish, it is really 30 minutes or less!!!!!):

gluten-free--Flaxmeal Skillet Bread

I have to also vote for Kinnickinick. My favorites are the Italian white bread and the Pizza shells. I use the pizza shells with hummous as well as pizza toppings. Be sure not to forget that almost all of our breads need to be nuked or toasted for the best texture. I didn't realize that the first year and my poor DD got to take sandwiches to school that fell to pieces with the first bite.

Our best luck with bread has been Chebe. We use the kind you add cheese to. Even the non-gluten-free eaters we know love the stuff!

We haven't had much luck with sandwich bread, but my daughter does like the white sandwich bread by kinnickinnick for toast.

The best bread I have had is Against the Grain. It comes in baguettes, bagels and roll. Whole Foods has it, at least the Boston ones do. It is made in Vermont. I believe the have a website. If not I can get you there info. It contains, tapioca starch, eggs, mozzerella and salt. Incredible. My son who is not gluten free won't eat any other bread excpect this one.!!

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam. The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach. The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery. Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years. Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      I had MRI scan a few years ago showing everything normal, and now it's no longer triggering the nerve pain when I bow my head today - it only seemed to happen yesterday, and that was the only time it happened! Just seemed weird as no movement has caused my usual nerve pain before. It's normally just random.

      COVID-19 a Possible Trigger for Celiac Disease in Those with Genetic Risk

      This hypothesis certainly lines up with my experience. Avoided getting Covid until August 2022. Celiac diagnosis three months later, and they think they caught it early (not a ton of damage in my EGD). I'd suspected the connection before, so it's nice to see researchers are interested in this question.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Very good pizzeria with small dining room in back of the restaurant. The owner's daughter has celiac & they have gluten free pizza & a gluten free menu. Some items from the regular menu can be made gluten free also. They have a lunch menu which we ordered from & my chicken with spinach & mozzarella over gluten-free penne was delicious. They also have Tuesday night pasta specials & Thursday night chicken pasta specials. We plan on going back for dinner soon.
