Dying For Pizza....

I am recently diagnosed, and have been working very hard at learning to cook gluten-free (not easy, but getting there). I really want to eat some pizza, and have found several recipes for the crust but what about the toppings?

Which toppings are gluten-free, like pepperoni and sausage?

Thank you for all your help!!!

We buy the Welshire Farms uncured pepperoni. I think Hormel is gluten-free too. There are many chicken sausages that are gluten-free and say so on the label. So many, in fact that I don't remember the names, I just look for the words gluten-free on the package. We like homemade italian meatballs, halved, on a pizza, with zucchini and garlic.

Look for Hormel Naturals, I found the pepperoni in Walmart. With sausage I found that I like best just buying the ground pork with no added anything. Then I add my own spices. I know what's in it that way. After that just go for any other gluten-free toppings you love!!

Love that PIZZA!!

We use Hormel pepperoni (says gluen free on it), Hormel Naturals sliced ham (says gluten free on it), Hormel real bacon bits (I believe it also says gluten-free on it), plus mushrooms, pineapple, Kraft mozarella, Kraft cheddar, Kraft grated parm. cheese. I make my own sauce out of tomato paste, tomatoe sauce, sugar, and spices.

Don't wait another day for pizza! For the sake of health, we limit pizza to one night a week (but I cheat and make 2 pizzas and the leftovers are for whoever gets there first!). For added fun (as if pizza night needed any help!), we make it pizza and a movie night and we "eat out" by eating in front of the TV while watching a rented movie.

This is making me hungry for pizza...we might have to have a middle of the week pizza night!!!

I like the frozen Glutino pizzas that I get at the grocery store. They're plain cheese but then I can add whatever I like to them. (tomatoes, bacon, and spinach for me). I tired Amy's but didn't like the crust near as much. It was gross.

I beg everyone here to read the following before buying another Wellshire Farms product:

I use Carol Fenster's recipe with her flour mixture. It's a combination of sorghum, potato and tapioca starches. It's SO good!! Chewy, a little crispy, all around YUM! I really didn't think I'd ever have pizza crust like that again.

And YES, I agree with jnbunnie. I refuse to buy another Wellshire Farms product. Please read the link.

Boar's Head Pepperonni is gluten-free (marked as such) and delicious--not too greasy.

For sausage I use the Jones Dairy Farm All-Natural (Breakfast) Sausage Roll. I make little tiny patties with it and fry then up, then use them to top the pizza. They make them in both regular and hot varieties.

As for Ham, I get Boar's Head ham at my butcher. I ask him to cut a few slices extra-thick and just dice them up for the pizza.

For a really easy crust, I use the Chebe mix for pizza crust. It makes a thin crust, and I don't think it would taste right as a thick crust, but having a crust that tasted like crust was important to my dh. Even though I'm still a gluten consumer, I like this crust. (Before anyone panics, I'm not the celiac, dh is, but we try to keep the house fairly gluten-free)

This is slightly off topic from the orignal poster's question, but if you want to go out for pizza and are in the right area, there is a restaurant chain called Pizza Fusion that makes gluten-free pizza. It's a touch on the expensive side, but it does closely resemble "normal" pizza. The crust becomes a little more fragile than regular dough as it cools, but right out of the oven you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference. Good stuff. The chain is in several states...see if there is one nearby you, perhaps.

      Help with genetic testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The genetic testing results you provided indicate that your child carries two copies of the HLA-DQ2.5 beta chain (DQ Beta 1 *02:01, *02:01), which is a high-risk genetic marker for celiac disease. However, the alpha chain (DQ Alpha 1 *05:01, *05) is only partially present, as HLA-DQ2.5 typically requires the alpha chain *05:01 paired with the beta chain 02:01. Since your child has two copies of the beta chain (02:01) but only one full *05:01 alpha allele (the other appears truncated as *05), this suggests they are heterozygous for HLA-DQ2.5 rather than homozygous. The term "permissive for celiac disease" means your child has genetic susceptibility but not necessarily the highest-risk genotype (homozygous DQ2.5). Since celiac disease development also depends on environmental triggers and other factors, further testing (such as antibody screening or biopsy) may be needed to confirm a diagnosis. Consulting a genetic counselor or gastroenterologist can help clarify these results and next steps.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      As my doctor said, you don't have to eat breakfast food for breakfast.  I may have a leftover piece of chicken and left over squash or eggs or I am actually more likely to skip breakfast as I do intermittent fasting.  In that case I eat lunch around 11:30 and have some guacamole and a salad with chicken or tuna.  For dinner I have pork, shrimp, chicken, lamb, or turkey with half a baked sweet potato and some broccoli, green beans, beets, carrots or cauliflower.  I do not eat any grains on the advice of my doctor.  I do not eat commercially processed products, even if they say they are gluten-free.  I make Warrior Bread every few weeks.  It has no yeast and contains almond flour and dried sweet potato.  Very tasty too.  A good book to help in this regard is No Grain, No Pain by Peter Osborne.  Thankfully, I can eat coconut and nuts and use those flours in baking and also use nut milks in cooking.  Since I am allergic to chocolate and vanilla, lemon is my go to flavor for something sweet.  My migraines totally disappeared once I went gluten and casein free.  I can occasionally eat certain high fat cheeses that are low in casein, as well as grass fed butter.  I use lots of Organic Olive and Avocado oil. The problems I thought I had with nightshades went away when I went fully organic.  And, the rest of my issues went away by avoiding the foods I tested positive to as well as avoiding all grains. I will be the first one to say that it is a very expensive way of eating, but thankfully we can afford to eat that way.  The good news is that I take no prescription meds at age 72.  At 54 before diagnosis, I was a mess and on a boatload of pharmaceuticals.

      With that many foods removed from your diet, what do you eat?  I also have histamine issues and migraines so that takes out certain trigger foods and high histamine vegetables.  Have allergies to coconut and issues with nuts so those are out.  I'm beginning to think I may have to remove dairy and some of the grains beyond wheat to get allergies under control.  Just having so many issues figuring out what to make at meal times.  What's a typical breakfast look like for you?  Thanks.

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.
