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

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
