Aurelio's Pizza & Pasta

Last night my fiance and another friend wanted to go out. After going through multiple options of places I decided I shouldn't eat at, I discovered online that Aurelio's Pizza offers a gluten-free pizza crust. I had to call and make sure after being disappointed about hearing that Lou Malnati's just put pizza ingredients on top of sausage. Lo and behold Aurelio's is an actual crust.

We got there (the Addison, IL location) and we were served by the owners wife. She explained in full detail about the crust and pasta. It's made in a dedicated kitchen area and is served on cardboard so that it does not touch the re-usable plastic dishes.

I consider myself pretty sensitive now that I haven't had gluten in a few weeks and did not have any problems. My pizza was only $1.00 more and only comes in the 13" (medium) size which was perfect.

With their pasta they can do pretty much any dish on the menu that would not contain gluten in the sauce. I may try that sometime, but I'm already hooked on the pizza! She said right now they do not sell just the crust to make at home, but doesn't mean they wouldn't. They also offer a "not cooked" pizza that you could take home and freeze for those frozen pizza nights.

Just wanted to share my good experience!

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

      Thank you! What do you recommend in the next 7 weeks until I see my Doctor?  Just start my Gluten free diet?

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      So if the normal range for your tests is below 15.0 U/mL, and your results are 120.9 U/mL HIGH, it definitely looks like you could have celiac disease. Your doctor may want to schedule an endoscopy to confirm this, but with such high results it is also possible that the diagnosis might be made on your blood test results alone (more info on that is below). This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.  In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:
