Gluten Free, Lactose Free, Egg Free And Yeast Free

Ive been gluten-free for months, so thats not a problem but very shortly I am starting a detox/cleanse diet to try and re-build my body with good bacteria and starve out my yeast infection....(on the recommendation of my natropath)....

Im terrified though - what can I cook for dinner?

Breakfast, lunches and snacks should be ok - I'll just live off smoothies, fruit and salads but what can I have for dinner?

gluten-free pasta should still be ok and rice but iver never been good at making things from scratch - im a jar/can/packet mix kinda girl!

Please help! Does anyone have any tasty/easy meal ideas?

Thanks

Erin

p.s - Sorry, I should have specified before but with this detox/cleanse diet I will not only have to be gluten free but also lactose free, egg free and yeast free....*sigh*...im not looking forward to it! I guess meat and veg or spaghetti with home made sauce?

Soups and gluten-free bread?

Plain meats are safe--it is the seasonings in prepared meat that could be a problem.

Plain vegetables and fruits are inherently gluten-free. Choose the ones you like, and add only seasonings you know are safe. Pure herbs and spices are gluten-free. Avoid prepared seasoning mixes. Butter and margarine are gluten-free.

A baked potato is easy to make and is gluten-free. Garnish it with butter (or margarine), chives, bacon bits, cheese or sour cream. All of those are gluten-free.

There are lots of gluten-free pasta products available.

Just a few ideas off the top of my head.

i've been craving a nice hot bowl of chicken and rice soup the past few days, so that's my suggestion. boil some chicken legs/pieces in water for half an hour. remove from water, take the meat off, then throw the bones back in. add chopped celery, carrots, onions, maybe a little garlic, and boil for an hour or so. shred the chicken, cook up some rice, and add that. hm, now i might just have to go make some :)

maybe some fish/chicken w/ steamed veggies. squeeze a little lemon juice on top. or a shredded chicken salad. my husband's fave meal is chicken (w/ some herbs or spices) and potato wedges (tossed in a little olive oil, salt and pepper, baked for half an hour).

good luck!

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here. I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      Probiotics

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem...

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
