Hey guys! Need some quick help!

I have Hurricane Ike :huh: barreling toward us and I need some easy non-perishable gluten free ideas for my two girls, 11 & 14 and if anyone is allergic to soy like me I'd appreciate any ideas for gluten free, dairy free and soy free!

Any help and ides would be appreciated. I have bought some Bush's beans, however I've never eaten them before so I'm a bit paranoid about putting something new in my mouth during a time like this..............Any suggestions would be more that appreciated!

Marsha :blink:

When we didnt know what Hanna was gonna do and the one before that one we did a little shopping.

I bought canned tuna. Plantain chips and fruit that doesnt go bad fast. And my beloved Almonds by "Back To Nature". I was delighted when I called them and they were very up on Celiac and said all of their products are gluten free. Hemp milk. Apple sauce and canned fruits. This was enough for me to feel secure for up to 2 weeks.

Good choices are apples and peanut butter or almond butter. Tuna and corn chips. Trail mix. Canned refried beans, salsa and corn chips. Could get corn tortillas too (they dont have to be refridgerated).

Apple sauce and almonds. gluten-free cereal with the small individual rice/almond/hazelnut milks.

Get some plastic plates, silverware and cups.

Buy ice and put in coolers.

Dont open the fridge or freezer if you lose power. Things will stay good for a few days if you dont open them. Hopefully power wouldnt be out long.

If so....make sure you have lots of charcoal for the grill, so you can grill what you can.

Thanks for the reply Shay! My brother lives in New Hampshire and gave him a hard time about Hannah. He has a neice named Hannah! Told him she reached out and gave him a big hug! LOL

I do have tuna for the girls, again I get paranoid because I'm allergic to it and my lungs close up pretty quick so I just hesitate to even have it in the house...........I'll be glad when I can get passed the emotional aspects of all this.....

I just got in today from Canada some kinninnick or however you spell it bread and I'm pleased! I bought me some peanut butter to snack with the bread. We do have a gas grill to use. I'm just not a fan of alot of boxed sugary treats. I purchased some fruit, but my girls may not want to eat it. (Guess they will not have a choice) I read that the Libby's vienna sausges are gluten free, however this isn't something I would feed them before their celiac diagnosis......so now what.........

Considered canned chicken. I don't believe it contains soy, but double check. I can't handle the mercury in tuna so I keep a dozen cans of chicken in my emergency box instead of tuna.

Hormel chilli is gluten-free as well. And they have those easy open indivudal containers. Buy a couple blue ice blocks if you can. They stay cold longer than ice, don't melt all over the place, and can be refrozen if you get somewhere where you can pop them in a freezer for a couple hours.

Swanson canned broth is gluten-free. You can always throw some canned chicken and some rice noodles in to it for a quick soup.

How about things like carrot or celery sticks? Whatever you do, don't forget a can opener and serving spoons. How about raisens or cranraisens, do the kids like them? SPAM? I know, I know, but it's canned, easy to open, and it can be sliced for sandwiches, or thrown in soup or even, heavens, BBQ's with BBQ sauce on it. Don't forget condiments as well. It's amazing how much better life is with salt and pepper and a little ketchup. If you can keep them somewhat cold and have the time, boil a dozen eggs; they're pure protein and easy to handle.

Good luck. Let us know how you're doing.

Dinty Moore beef stew comes in pop top cans and is gluten free. Also Lara Bars are good. :)

I keep jugs of assorted sizes of water in the freezer. You can refreeze them or drink them when they thaw. Or use them to wash with. Our power goes off many times a year.

Thanks Violet! The ketchup advice made me laugh! It is true. Heinz ketchup was one of the first gluten free finds for my girls-on their own! I do like the egg idea! I will do this. I eat them in my salads and my 14 year old will at them too! It's the 11 year old that all she wants is scrambled eggs and sausage. I appreciate all the information and will keep in touch!

Keep an eye out. I'm in Houston, so if you watch the weather channell they are in Galveston, Texas 45 minutes away.

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
