Please Rave About Your Faves

I am relatively new to celiac disease, my 3year old daughter was diaged last May. I have been trying new products left and right, some good, some bad, some ugly. So, let's save everyone time and money, please rave about some of your fave gluten free products ( not recipies, I can tweak and play), actual products that you buy that are yummy and save time. Here's my RAVE:

Schar basic white bread mix. We have tried EVERYONE as DD and DH do not like any of the premade bread. I have tried every mix, this is the BEST. Follow the recipe exactly, no need to tweak, make it in the bread machine. It's airy, crusty, good, no after taste. I also follow the directions on the box for pizza dough, again, it is hands down the best dough/pizza we have been able to make. ALL the kids like it, even the non celiac disease kids. They ask for it again and again. Bakes up nice on the pizza stone, crisp, airy, tasty good pizza dough. I just ordered several from the gluten free mall. Need to keep them in stock.

Also, would like to RAVE about the Kinnick ( is that right) 7 inch mini pizza pre made shells!!!!! AWESOME mini pizzas. Great slightly sweet taste. Last night we cut them up, basted them with melted butter, garlic salt, and parm, and toasted into breadsticks. None we left over, all the kids enjoyed them.

Two products I will buy again, and again, and again..........

I've been off gluten for about a month and half...

I love the Tinkyada rice pasta! As long as you don't overcook it, I don't think you can tell the difference from regular (semolina) pasta. It even reheats nicely if you put leftovers in the refrigerator.

I've also been trying some new bars for on-the-go snacking (I used to eat Clif bars, but they have brown rice syrup). Lara bars are yummy. They seem to be widely available because they have them at Kroger. "Kind" fruit + nut bars are also delicious. I especially like the almond/coconut and apricot/macadamia varieties.... they satisfy my foodie cravings :P

I finally got around to roasting more vegetables (not just potatoes) in the oven... zucchini, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots... yum. You just chop them up, coat them with olive oil, sprinkle on some salt and pepper (herbs are nice too) and you're good to go. That's what I'm having tonight with some salmon. I do like to cook, but I don't have a lot of time with a three-year-old and a seven-month-old.

I too like the Tinkyada pasta and Dr. Schar's crackers and breadsticks. Also like Enjoy Life chocolate, chips and cookies (all but the no oats oatmeal). Daughter likes Ener-G donuts and Wylde pretzels.

Yes, there's Gluten-free ravioli and stuffed shells, and they are so good! Everyone at our house loves them. I get mine either at the Gluten-Free Market in Fair Lawn, NJ, or if I don't have time to drive out there, I order them online from the Gluten Free Mall. They come frozen and packed in dry ice. Yummy!!

Most health food stores around me have the Kinnikinick chocolate dipped donuts, so I've never had to order them online.

We had a company send us samples for our support meeting Tuesday night. The company is Shabtai Gourmet. We had Lady's Fingers, Brownies, and some other wonderful marbles cookie. They are gluten free, casein free, soy free, dairy free, lactose free, and corn free. They have a website: www.shabtai-gourmet.com and all internet orders are shipped free, no matter how big or small.

Also available at supermarkets all over NYC, Mrs. Greens Natural Markets, Mortin Williams, Natures Pantry, Wild By Nature, markets on Long Island, and some Shoprites. Certified Kasher too.

It was all yummy!!!

We found these corndogs recently in Meijers new freezer section of gluten-free items. We like them alot better than the Welshire Farms ones. The batter has just that hint of sweetness and is a little more tender and less dry than the others. Open Original Shared Link

I also like the Foods by George brownies. They're not like regular brownies but maybe that's why I like them better.

For chicken nuggets we love Allergy-free brand. Open Original Shared Link

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics. I have had Celiac for 40 years. Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything. I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference. After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made...

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
