I made a nice dish with quinoa the other day. I added chopped dried mango, toasted pinenuts and shallots that had been sauted in a mix of butter and olive oil. I've done these same additions to rice too.

I was sitting in my doctor's office this afternoon and they have a tv on at all times with a health watch tv program. There was a lady on there talking about how good quinoa is for you, and she made a dish that looked delicious! She had some cooked quinoa, and made her own version of a fresh pesto (she basically said to make it however you like it) and then some sauteed veggies, like peppers and onions. She mixed this all together to serve cold as a salad, it looked delicious! My mouth has been watering since I left there...which is odd because I was there because I've been sick as a dog for 2 days and couldn't even hold down toast.

Collette, this sounds amazing! I absolutely love mushrooms. I made a beef stew last week that was delicious, but would have never thought to serve with quinoa. Thanks for the ideas!

I am intrigued w/ quinoa, and do NOT know how to rinse it. It's too small for colander and strainer, I think..........how do you guys rinse this stuff and get rid of the soapy taste? :blink:

I'd love to use it!

I have a very fine strainer that I use.

I pre-soak the quinoa in a pot for 30 minutes or so, then drain and refill the water and repeat the process and soak again. Then I drain them and cook with fresh water. The soaking removes the saponins, which is bitter tasting and that soapy froth you see when you run water over them.

I use a finer strainer to drain them, the holes are very small and the grain doesn't slip through. You could always put a couple paper towels in the bottom of your strainer if the holes are bigger.

Hi!

Those recipes sound AMAZING!!! I heart Quinoa!!!

I actually made the yummiest breaky out of quinoa....:

Warm up leftover quinoa (or cook some) and add craisins (mmm), brown sugar/honey, cinnamon, a pinch of flax seeds and fruit of your choice. I personally love adding frozen blueberries..I like the temperature and texture the frozen berries bring to the dish.

I know it's simple, but quinoa as breakfast is healthy and keeps you full for a long time!

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10). Since then it has gone up to 10. I am not happy with that. I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I...

      Low iron and vitamin d

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer. Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks...

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
