I am just starting (at the old age of 25, how pathetic) to get back into cooking and baking. I haven't done much since I was diagnosed as I went right into college after diagnosis and then med school where I dont' have TIME. But I getting inspired and I have bought some cookbooks but I wish they had pictures of the food like normal ones do. Any ideas? Or a regular cookbook with pictures that is easily adaptable?

Thanks !

I love pictures too! Have you checked out the many gluten-free blogs out there? Here's one to get you started. Open Original Shared Link Then you can click on the links there to other blogs to see what they have to offer.

Gluten Free Cookbooks I have noticed are hard to find with pictures. Sometimes it is frustrating b/c it would be nice to see what you are trying to make (on somethings).

Below are two neat websites, sometimes the person who posted the recipe did a picture too. Just put in gluten free and a lot of recipes will come up:

www.recipezaar.com

www.allrecipes.com

There are some on this site that still use their old cookbooks and change over the ingredients that need to be changed to gluten free ones.

GOOD LUCK!!

Glad those helped. When I get frustrated with gluten-free cooking, especially baking, I have to be patient with myself sometimes and remind myself what things were like when I started to learn to cook almost 20 years ago. I made some breads that were like rocks! In two years gluten-free I have only mastered one bread recipe and one cookie recipe. So many flops! My New Years resolution is to make decent casein-free, gluten-free pancakes and not give up no matter how many flops! I'm having to get creative with the flops to repurpose them so they don't go to waste. Cookies can be used for cheesecake crusts. We've ended up with alot of tough pancakes, so they get cut in strips and sent for school lunches with a container of syrup for dunking or spead with jam and made into sandwiches. Bread crusts and breads that we don't like end up as bread crumbs or french toast.

Michael Eberhart's book "Gluten Free & Wheat-Free Gourmet Desserts" has photos of every recipe in the book. I also like to have a photo of the finished product.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
