I'd like to hear the dream foods of members then ask if anyone can convert their recipes for all of us.

I cannot eat ice cream and read about the company that makes it with coconut milk and agave. They looked delicious but out of my budget. Can anyone make a great dairy free ice cream with the coconut milk that I like?

Hi,

I'm sure if you search for Vegan Ice Cream Recipes you'll find lot's

because it's vegan, it's egg free as well.

.

Try looking around Vegiac.com (the gluten-free Vegetarian site)

.

Best Regards,

David

Great Idea for a post. The thing that I miss the most is a decent slice of sour dough or french bread. It's been 2 years for me now. I have to say before I went gluten free, I avoided bread unless it was a nice fresh loaf of good bread. I have pretty much given up trying because it is expensive and you feel guilty if you don't eat it. I'm hoping that the gluten free restaurant that is near me comes up with a good bread. As far as goodies, I do a good job. I have had great luck with cookies, scones, muffins, bar cookies, cheesecake, and a gooey butter cake. Thanks or starting the post.

For my dd, I tried many brownie recipes, then was greatly satisfied with this one...all but the calories ;)

I've tried 5 or 6 pizza crust recipes so far and today I tried this one. It wins! The best one yet and very easy to make.

I made 3 mini pizzas with one recipe. Chewy good.

I've made this french bread a few times, I think it's really good. Super crunchy on the outside and soft inside!! It makes amazing french bread pizza too :)

White Castle....

Best 6am meal in the world was 3-4 White Castle Cheeseburgers fresh off the steamer.

That is the only thing I miss, I gave up the rest without a second though.

You might want to check into an Australian study that showed sour dough bread prepared a certain way did not cause a immune response in Celiacs even though it had gluten.

I forget the exacts but it had to do with the way the dough was 'soured'. It had gluten, Celiacs ate it, and for some reason had no immune response.

This was not a specialty bread, it was a normal off the shelf sour dough but some part of their process caused it to be non-responsive. I did not have much luck and I even emailed the professor who had done the study but that was just about 2 years ago so unfortunately no longer have the info.

I tried the sweet potato and black bean enchiladas, really good. And the breakfast brownies...a regular at our house and you can put all kinds of yummy things in them like pumpkin seeds and chopped dates. Make a batch and while the dry ingredients are out, bag up some for a future batch.

The pueblo bread wasn't so good except when it first came out of the oven. The maui wowee bars are awesome and easy.

I saw that recipe but haven't gotten to try it yet. Thanks for reminding me. That would be good when it warms up.

Me too...I tried it twice I think, my gluten-free dd doesn't live at home, so I never made it again. It was good, just like french bread.

Different time frame and continent, but this sounds awfully close to what you described:

Luckily for me (I guess), I couldn't even get my favorite pre-gluten food if I tried. Until about 20 years ago, the supermarkets in the SF Bay Area sold a fresh ravioli and red sauce in the meat dept. If anyone remembers it, the box it came in was divided by a paper shelf, to separate the two sheets of ravioli inside. I left SF in the mid-80's, and it was nowhere to be found on return trips shortly afterwards. I can still taste it, it was so good. Those ravioli with a loaf of dark crust late bake sourdough and a bottle of a good red wine was my perfect meal.

Perhaps of the food I could still get, a good Napoleon, or a white cake with whipped cream frosting and fresh strawberries would be what I'll miss most.

Here is some more info regarding this:Open Original Shared Link

Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon talks about presoaking grain in an acid changes the gluten. Don't quote me as its late at night and I no longer own the book. I am going to see if I can get it at the library and re-read it to see what she was talking about.

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long? DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule. This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are produced in response to. TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      Food and environmental allergies involve IgE antibodies. IgE antibodies provoke histamine release from mast cells. Celiac disease is not always visible to the naked eye during endoscopy. Much of the damage is microscopic and patchy or out of reach of the scope. Did they take any biopsies of your small intestine for a pathologist to examine? Were...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      I was tested for food allergies and environmental allergies about 7 months before I started taking Naltrexone, so I don't think that is the cause for me, but that's interesting! The main thing with the celiac thing that is throwing me off is these symptoms are lifelong, but I don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

Why do you say you "don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease"?   Just curious.
