Stupid Me-i Got A Griller/cooker Gtxpress 101 Off Tv

Hi

Well--- it sure is smaller than what it looked like on TV. <_<

Maybe they use a larger size on tv as I don't know how you'd get a piece of chicken in this one :ph34r:

I did try it with some gluten-free bagels and a slice of cheese......woops :ph34r: ......but I did! It was ok but holes aren't big enough for a whole one even tho I cut it almost in half. (only used a bagel i'd cut in 1/2 and then cut again.)

Anyway, since I can't use the pre made cake mixes I'm sure hoping someone can have some ideas.

Was wondering if the gluten-free pantry pie mix would work?

Hi Judy

I think I have one of those in our fifth wheel. It has two triangle spaces where you put food in & close the lid for a few seconds? I'm not positive it is the same thing but t is an express griller. A short , stocky ,sweet talking lady advertizes it on TV. I forget her name. I've had this for a couple of years now. I use it for breakfast & for hot sandwiches when we are traveling... pancakes too added fruit in the center. I think I did stuffed french toast in it twice. I'm a gadget person as it seems everyone buys these things for me...

Hey, I'm heading to Philly in June If you would like to meet up I'd love to meet you.....

hi

I live about 1/2 outside philly but it would be fun.

I'm sure this is the same one. I used the gluten-free panty pancake mix so will like into that one.

It just seemed so much smaller.......like i said I don't know how she'd get that one chicken breast in mine. Do you know if there are 2 sizes. I went on line to look at the site and i sure got a big surprise as it was $109 for 2........buy one get one free................and on line said it cost like $69. i'll have to check it out tomorrow.

what mixes do you use? I think for breakfast and lunch it could be great just not sure of the dinner items in the books they sent.

thanks for the reply.

hope others can chime in.

Hi Judy

I think there is only one size unless they came out with a newer version. I don't think that they did. You can fit a boneless small half breast in it but again I mainly use it for breakfast & sandwiches. I have put a slcie of bread in it added some deli meat & cheese & a few veggies , put a top slice of bread & grilled ... It works with pizza sauce ,pepperoni, cheese too. Sometimes I just use bread for that too.... I have used the crescent roll reipe I posted a couple months ago in it also....

When you put scrambled eggs (omlet) in it the egg forms a light crust kinda like ahand held breakfast....Iput mushrooms, onions, peppers in the middle & a bit more egg on top & closed the lid!.

If you would like to meet send me a private e-mail & I'll give you my cell phone number, Someone told me about a great Italian place in Voohees,NJ not far from CC that has a wonderful looking gluten-free menu. We want to try it out. Place we are going to have a Philly Steak. I'm taking my own hoagie roll this time! Would love to meet you....

Hi Judy :)

So glad you had some success with this thing. I have looked longingly at this gadget on TV and considered buying one - just not sure how much I'd use it.

Let us know how you do!

Hugs -

p.s. do you sautee the onions - or pre-cook anything - before you put it into the thing? just wondering....

hi Susie Q

well I've had it 2 days and used it 3 times.

ditto Sande.......only good meats before but it says you can do sausage etc as it's preheating and then finsh with the rest of the items.

nope don't pre cook veg etc.

tip......but off line and DON'T CALL AND ORDER IN A FRENZY WHILE WATCHING TV.

DAMN, IT COST ME 106 DOLLARS BEFORE I COULD GET OUT OF THE DANG PHONE LOOP...........

BUYING ON LINE ..........SOME THING WAS ONLY 69 DOLLARS.

BUY ONE GET ONE FREE BUT THE UTENTILES THAT CAME WITH IT WERE A JOKE......BUT............I'm not laughing............. :ph34r: just junk..........in my opinion.

customer service to get bill adjusted was s ROYAL JOKE..............AGAIN............I'M NOT LAUGHING.

BUT DO LIKE THE PRODUCT. AM PLANNING ON USING IT ONCE A DAY TO PROVE TO MYSELF I WASN'T DERANGED WHEN I BOUGHT IT.

LOOKING INTO gluten-free PANCAKE MIX FOR TOMRROW..........WELL IT'S THE WEEKEND FOR HEAVENS SAKE AND TO STILL BE POURING RAIN FOR DAYS TO COME.

SEE..........MY LIFE IS STILL SO OOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO BORING.

LOVE YA JUDY

Hi Judy

I kept hearing that $69 bucks ringing in my head for days now so I went & looked up what I paid several years ago at an Altmeyer store & it was only $39.99. Man, they sure raised the price of that thing...

I get these gadgets all the time... I do use this & the magic bullet when we are traveling. I use the abkiever pan too...( I think I spelled that wrong!) But my most used plastic gadget is a $0.99 can drainer! It has several nitches in it for any size can.... I love it & use it most of all...

If the world wasn't full of fools it would be a very boring place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm easy prey .....................

Hey Judy

O don't get me wrong if they ripped you off I would call the attorney general's office & have them investigate the company..... My comment was addressing buying gadgets that one really does not need!!!!

I hate it when you call to place an order for something & they rattle on for another half hour telling you about add-ons or other useful products or you can get this for free but every month we will send you three more that cost 59.99 or some thing.I think this is where many people get confused & taken.... I now say when they start the extras if I can't get just what I asked for please cancel my order I don't care for anyhting else nor do I wish to listen to your rambling about it. That usually stops them fairly quickly.

Here in Pittsburgh our TV. station actually goes out & investigate's things like this....most often people get their money back.

I would be more than angry!!!

BEEN LOOKING UP ALOT OF THINGS I CAN gluten-free IN IT AND I THINK I'LL REALLY USE IT. (IF IT HOLDS UP)

Hey Judy

Nothing like an old fool!!!! me anyway!!!! As i'm thinking I put cornbread in that thing also......& a white cake we had with strawberries...... I honestly don't see anything wrong with it but I only use it when we travel. So for me mine has held up even being jarred around in a rear kitchen of a fifth wheel to Alaska& back. Plus the lower 48 trips....

You could make a corndog too. How about something like a calzone or stromboli in it?

Hand pies (fruit ) would work ..gluten-free pie dough fruit & top with more pie dough......

      Your concern about certified gluten-free cricket powder is completely valid, as cross-contamination in both feedstock and processing is a real issue. Currently, the availability of certified gluten-free options is limited, but brands like Chapul and Entomo Farms, which I believe have offered products processed in dedicated facilities and labeled gluten-free...

Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
