I've seen this link once or twice on the forum already, but I decided it deserves a thread of its own because it just rocks that much!

This woman's 2008 New Year's resolution was to use the CrockPot every single day for a year, no repeats-- and her family is gluten-free! She does a lot of experimental stuff, and I've found tons of thing I want to try already. She also has a great sense of humor in her writing. :lol:

A new gluten-free CrockPot recipe every single day?! It's my personal dream come true.

Thanks for the complement about the blog! I am excited about it this week 'cause I have 2 excuses to make fancy birthday cakes. I'm going to add photos and recipes for them after I bake them. Let me know when you try the Satay sauce, I was really happy with it and particularly on the bean thread noodles. I didn't add any additional spicy stuff to it, but my hubby added a lot of ground red pepper to his and he said it was good that way...just in case you like it hot!

I'm going to have to get the crock pot out and try a few meals in it in the next few weeks. I sort of forget about it in the summer and use it a lot in the winter!

Me too, she is really phunny! :P

I actually like to use the crockpot even more in the summer, because it doesn't heat up the whole kitchen like the oven does, AND I'm usually a lot busier in the summer.

I'm making one of her recipes for tonight . . . Cream Cheese Chicken (May 23rd Recipe). I think it looks fabulous!! The kids will probably turn their noses up at it because they've never "seen" it before. Might have a chance since there are no visible vegetables. :lol:

definitely agree with you on this one too! so much nicer. my mother in law and i were just talking about how you can make baked potatoes in the crock (she didn't believe it could be done, i showed her this blog). some great ideas for cool kitchens!!

WOW! I got a Crockpot for Christmas and love it but I typically only use it in the fall and winter because I associate it with heavy, warm, winter meals, but not any longer. I can't wait to try several of these recipes!

Whole chicken doesn't work so well. It cooks fine, but it's totally pale, and mine didn't have the infusion of flavor I was hoping for. I did cook it on high, so maybe a longer, slower cook would work better.

I'm in! Anything I can do easily and don't have to think about too much is great. I can't believe anyone could think to do this. My husband will also be happy that I am cooking again.

Thanks!

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

      By catnapt · Posted

      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.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By SilkieFairy · Posted

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
