I discovered yesterday that Post's Cocoa Pebbles are gluten free!! I never expected to be so happy to see my daughter eat 'junk' cereal but she was so happy that it was 'normal' food and had Fred Flintstone on the box.

What is your favorite?

While I was waiting for the page to load I was thinking about Cocoa Pebbles.

I found gluten free graham crackers and gluten free ice cream cones yesterday at a health food store near me. I was so excited to find these for my daughter. Now she can have graham crackers at preschool with the rest of the class. Not to mention they seem like they will make a good pie crust for something. And the ice cream cones...what 3 year old doesn't want a ice cream cone like everyone else! I haven't tried them yet, but I am thinking positively!!!

Envirokids Koala Bars. The kids love them and they're so nice for on-the-go snacking.

Pamela's baking mix and gluten-free pretzles (and I think they taste better than regular ones)

Amy's frozen mac and cheese. It's great to have for a quick lunch. My parents keep boxes at their house in case of a babysitting emergency. I keep a box at school in the freezer for an emergency lunch for my son. My kids love it and would eat it all day if I'd let them!

What kind of gluten free graham crackers did you find? I've been looking for some.

They are called S'morables by Kinnikinnick. I was quite impressed with the taste and my 3 year old loves them!!

My 2 favourite gluten-free foods of all time: the ready-made Pyrogies (which are worth paying almost $6 for a dozen), and recently Glutano soup crackers are back. LOVE the soup cracker. I am a huge fan of Glutino mushroom soup, so the Glutano crackers go along perfectly!

Other gluten-free cereals...

Rice Chex is now. This just occurred in the past 2-3 months.

Little Einsteins is but we cannot find it anymore anywhere.

Fruity Pebbles too

Glutino's english muffins. They make great toast. Much better than gluten-free bread IMO. Not cheap of course at about a dollar a shot.

Rice Chex for sure.

Mine isn't one discovery but I was VERY pleased by the grocery store Wegmans and their gluten free aisle! I bought SO MUCH food for Violet! Tons of stuff that didn't have rice in it too! Violet is allergic to rice and it seems like so much is made with primarily rice flour but Wegmans had a ton NOT with rice flour! If you have one near you I highly rcommend this grocery store! I even found one pizza dough kit not made with rice!

Glutino English muffins? Really?? Where do you fnd them? I love everything Glutino but have never seen the muffins. We get Kinickkinik(sp?) and they are a bit greasy to me.

I was thrilled about the Rice Chex of course. I've found all sorts of uses for them. Even use them for crumbs to make meat loaf. Another favorite of mine is Glutino's feta cheese and spinach pizza.

Omg yes...I usually would not eat either ingredient, but one day tried that pizza, and fell in love with it!

Surprisingly, the big health food stores here in DFW, Central Market & Whole foods, don't carry Glutino. But we have a Sprouts Market, a small version of Whole Foods, and that's where I first discovered Glutino products. They also carry Glutino crackers, pretty damn good IMO.

BTW, the Glutino english muffins are also a bit on the greasy side, but tasty.

The only 2 bread products I like from Glutino is the baguettes and the hamburger buns. Mmmm hamburger buns. Too bad I can't eat hamburgers very often lol. But next time I plan to make a trip to Wendy's I think I'll take a bun along!

gluten-free Crackers! Glutino is AWESOME and one of my favorite brands!

I also discovered that mixing peanut butter and jelly in a bowl and eating it is just as good as a PBand J sandwich. And rolling up most other sandwich ingredients together are just as good too.

But I can't find any decent gluten-free hot dog buns....

      Canker sores

      i used to get cold sores frequently before I went gluten free. Then I only got them when stressed. Then I cured my gut dysbiosis, and haven't had one in 20 years.

      Pear Bread

      To me, this bread is pretty special. The first time I tried adapting it I used a commercial gluten-free flour blend and it was good, but when I experimented using individual flours I tried the almond flour and it took it from good to special. I add walnuts or pecans to a lot of my desert bread recipes but I haven't tried nuts with this one. I would guess...

      Sorghum, Kale and Roasted Cherry Tomato Salad

      It's kind of funny that before my celiac diagnosis I did a lot more "functional eating" where I just needed a meal and wasn't so worried about how interesting/delicious it was, just needed to eat something. After my diagnosis I've become a dedicated cook and I am very tuned into flavor and novelty. In answer to your question, I find the recipe very forgiving...

I add walnuts or pecans to a lot of my desert bread recipes but I haven't tried nuts with this one. I would guess that adding either of them would result in the whole being less than the sum of the parts because the almond and other nut flavors would be competing. I wouldn't want to add almonds because of the texture. But you never know until you try. Have not tried cinnamon in this recipe. I imagine it would work. As I modified this recipe from the original, I reduced the sugar. The posted recipe is what I currently use. You are right that the pears bring a little sweetness to it.

After my diagnosis I've become a dedicated cook and I am very tuned into flavor and novelty. In answer to your question, I find the recipe very forgiving for trying add-ins. I've supplemented the greens with green onions, bell pepper (any color), celery leaves and stalks, and fresh parsley. Sometimes I throw in pepitas (pumpkin seeds), craisins, walnuts and/or sunflower seeds. One thing I tried that didn't really work was currants. I think that maybe it's because they are too small and too sweet. I haven't experimented with cheeses beyond the 2 in the recipe. I would guess that grated hard cheeses would work, medium hard cheeses (like swiss or cheddar) might work, and soft cheeses would not.

      Pear Bread

      By Harris · Posted

      That actually sounds really nice. Pear bread feels like one of those things that would be soft and a little sweet without being too heavy. I like the idea of using fruit like that instead of just relying on sugar. It probably makes it feel more fresh and homemade. Have you tried adding anything like cinnamon or nuts to it, or do you keep it simple?

      Sorghum, Kale and Roasted Cherry Tomato Salad

      By Harris · Posted

      That actually sounds really good, I wouldn’t have thought to mix sorghum with kale but it makes sense. The roasted cherry tomatoes probably bring a nice bit of sweetness to balance everything out. I’ve been trying to find more simple gluten-free meals that don’t feel boring, and this feels like something you could make ahead and just keep eating through the week. Did you add anything else to it, like nuts or cheese, or keep it pretty simple?
