Gfdf Replacements For My Old Favorites?

OK, I'm having a hard time here trying to keep SOME things in my life.

I need "milk" in my coffee in the morning. How do celiacs with milk issues lighten their coffee? (I've tried rice and soy milk with unsatisfactory results)

Also, I found a bread that I like, but I'd like to toast it and put something on it for my breakfast in the morning. I have always used butter and now don't know what to use.

Any suggestions?

My dh puts peanut butter or honey on his toast. I used to put coconut oil on toast but I am not a bread eater unless its the muffin kind ;) How about just jam or a scrambled egg sandwich?

I forgot to mention no eggs, no oats for me either.

I think I have some jam downstairs in the pantry. I'll try that tomorrow (the others are used by the kids and are def. CC)

Are the fake margarines or olive oil spreads OK to use?

I haven't tried them, my dd is vegan and uses earth balance margarine, jam or pb. She puts refried beans or avocados on various bread items too.

Couldn't answer the coffee question b/c I hate coffee...sorry :blink:

I second the honey suggestion, that is what I use on my toasted gluten-free bread for breakfast, and I love it!!

Also, for coffee, I have never liked it, so I am not sure =)

I also use Earth Balance margarine and I really like it. Coffeemate is GFDF. Thats what I use. There is a creamer from silk too that is good if you can tolerate soy. Personally it gives me gas, but the coffeemate is good and has all kinds of flavors.

I use earth balance if I ever bother with toast or make muffins.

As far dairy - in cereal, I use either soy milk (different brands taste differently, I prefer unsweetened silk) or almond milk (also unsweetened) if I'm doing cereal, and almond rice milk or hemp milk in a smoothie or when baking. (Almond milk if I'm making chai tea.)

I use Smart Balance organic spread in the green tub. It is gluten free and dairy free and tastes just like the real thing. You can use it for baking and cooking as well.

I use the smart balance spread that darkhorse mentioned on things like toast and veggies. I use the earth balance sticks for baking. Both seem to work great.

Almond milk is great, I use it to make mashed potatoes with it and My mom, who is picky, even likes it. They also make chocolate almond milk that is great in coffee. Or great just out of the box.

It has taken me time to find replacements for some things that I miss. but with time adjustments can me made. or new favorites can be found.

I am not sure if anyone mentioned it but you should have your own toaster one that is gluten free.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
