Hi to all,

i tried something now, that one co-worker of my husband said he had done. This co-worker is a celiac, too. Put your rice cake in your toaster. I know, it says on the package not to do it. But if you put the toaster on low and watch it the whole time, so you could take it out, before it goes black, not much should happen. The result is much better than this untasty rice bread. Me for my part i couldn't see it anymore <_< . It's very yummy :P . I put some breadspread on it that i like. Sometimes plain old country crock, Nutella, liverwurst or cheese. Hmmm!!! Can't get enough.

Enjoy!

Stef

Stef,

What brand of rice cakes do you use for this? Sounds good! I might actually have to break out the toaster again!

GET A BREADMACHINE !!

ENJOY BREAD AGAIN !!

gluten-free bread actually comes out so good that non-celiacs are happy to eat it and won't even KNOW it's gluten-free if u don't tell them.

I use the Quaker's rice cakes. They are very yummy. They also taste "untoasted". But toasted they're much better.

And @ tom: I don't buy a bread machine, because i get one for christmas ;) and then head first in all the breads. Yippie!!! :D Praise to all good mother-in-laws. :lol: Well, i guess she just spoils me, because my parents live on another continent :lol: and she anyway enjoyes having the daughter she never had :P Couple of days ago my father-in-law made a comment about her, because she spoils me so much and buys a lot of stuff for me. She replied, she will enjoy it even more, when there will be three to buy for. Well, as for right now, there's no baby on the way yet. But soon... :rolleyes:

I eat Lundberg's rice cakes. They are much heavier than quaker and are delicious! I too, make my ricewiches, with mayo, coldcuts, tomato and melt cheese on the top. Beats a rice bread sandwich any day! The Lundberg rice cakes do have 70 calories, compared to Quakers 35, but they are nice good healthy calories. They have flavors like Wild rice, brown rice, honey nut, and so on. So you're getting some fiber in there too. Enjoy! :)

Are both kinds gluten-free, both the Lundenburg and Quaker...

I know the Lundberg Farms ones are - everything they make with the exception of a couple of seasoned rice mixes is gluten-free - and Quaker has said that theirs are (most flavors, I think - someone correct me on this one?), but there's a risk of cross contamination that a few people have written about on the board.

What "flavor" of rice cakes do you use?--i don't know if there's a plain, cause i've always had a flavored rice cake.

Thanks :D

Oh, Tiffany, with the Quaker rice cakes I THINK that all of the large ones are gluten-free....and the minis are problematic.....I haven't had them in months, though, so i can't remember the full list

Real Foods are the BEST!! They are "corn thins" and are wonderful for a tuna melt, PB & J, a slice of cheese or just to munch on. They also say not to put them in the toaster, but I haven't had any problems. They aren't available everywhere, but healthfood stores are more likely to have them. Go to www.realfoods.com to see where you can get them.

WELL CRAP!!!! :angry: I just ate a couple of the butter toffee.. nothing no reaction... but if they have barley, out they go. How come it does NOT say barley on it??? It says nothing about it. And it says contains Milk and Soy and may contain peanuts. They can say that but not mention the stupid barley? Gonna start eating carrots and water soon.

Thanks for the ideas.. I am not fan of ANY bread I have made. Manna from Anna is the best... but you still cannot just slice it and eat it. I so miss my sandwiches.. But you see I hated even multi grain bread in my gluten in my days.. I liked soft white bread. :(

The Quaker mini apple cinnimon rice cakes are gluten and casein free, but almost addictive. They are hard to stop eating, I swear. Several of the flavored rice cakes have casein, but these don't. However, check the ingredients.....sugar is the first on listed for the apple cinnamon ones!!!!!!!!! They are still relatively low in calories if you can stop eating them at some sensible time. I miss sandwiches too and good french bread. I have a bread mix here and have never even tried it, but I think I may just give it a try. I don't have a bread machine, so it will be by hand....have been making do with rice/almond and rice/pecan breads from the store which you pretty much have to toast because they are so heavy. They do make good garlic toast with spaghetti, though with lots of butter and garlic. I like corn spaghetti as it keeps it shape just like wheat as opposed to rice spaghetti which tends to get mushy. I make my own sauce with Contadina tomato products cooking slowly and you just can't tell the pasta is any different with a good sauce on it.

My mom just bought me some ACME brand rice cakes, Caramel corn and Pop Corn Flavor. I tried the Caramel and they are pretty good. No reaction thus far. They are the big ones. They don't have gluten free on the package and they say that they are processed in a plant that also processes soy and nuts. But again, no reaction thus far. Is this a good sign that they are gluten-free?

By the Way, my info:

Celiac or Gluten-intolerant by self diagnosis

elimination diet

Going for blood tests within next month.

I am just self diagnosis until I can get actual diagnosis

then I will post results in signature line

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
