I have been wanting to bake a homemade pot pie for some time, but struggling to find a recipe that is gluten-free. Is it possible to make a gluten-free pot pie? I'm craving a simple and delicious meal. Thanks!

I use pretty much any basic chicken pot pie recipe for the filling and substitute rice flour for wheat flour in the roux. THen I put it in a casserole dish and cover the top of the filling with a gluten-free pie crust. It's kind of tricky to get it shaped flat enough to cover the dish. I usually roll it out on a baking sheet w/ plastic wrap over it to roll it out, and take the plastic wrap off and flip the baking sheet over the casserole dish.

I make my typical chicken-n-veggies in gravy (then again, I've ALWAYS used cornstarch instead of flour for thickening, so no changes there), put it in a pie pan, then cover it with hot mashed potatoes and bake until the potatoes get a nice brown on them. You can even sprinkle with some cheese (if tolerated) and then stick it back under the broiler for a second to melt/brown the cheese a bit. Boy that sounds good but too damned hot here for that!

The recipe have followed in the past before going gluten-free includes a can of cream of potato soup. That has wheat flour in it. All of your ideas sounds delicious. I just might need a step by step recipe. I am cook illiterate! :(

I have a recipe for a homemade cream of "X" soup mix (throw in mushrooms, you've got cream of mushroom soup; throw in sauteed celery, you've got cream of celery soup, etc.) that uses dry milk, chicken bouillon, mashed potato flakes and seasonings. It makes a batch that will make the equivalent of 8 cans of soup - you just whisk a few tablespoons of mix with some water and nuke it a bit. It's not quite as thick, but much tastier and waaaaaay healthier if anyone's interested.

Oh, and cornstarch, too.

Please post this recipe. I have been looking for a cream of mushroom soup that is gluten free....

Thanks,

P.S. If anyone has a recipe for french onion soup, I would love to get it to make a Jambalaya....

Of course, it goes without saying to use gluten free chicken bouillon. I use Betty Crocker Potato Buds. I just mix this up and keep it in a Tupperware and reconstitute as necessary. As written, the 3 tablespoons of mix makes the equivalent of HALF A CAN. So, for a whole can of soup, just use 6 tablespoons of mix and 1-1/3 cups of water. It's a lifesaver! I used it even before I went gluten free because I use it so rarely and I only cook for two, so a half can amount is perfect. And black pepper is fine - they just use white pepper because it looks nicer without the black specks in it.

It's not as thick as undiluted Campbells *shudder* but works just fine in any recipe that you'd use it for. I don't think I'd eat it as soup, but then again cream soups as, you know, SOUP, have always made me cringe.

That one's super easy- beef broth & onion, simmer. Never fails. If you like it sweeter, carmelize the onion in butter first. On that note, I LOVE taking butternut squash soup and simmering lots of onion in it til the onion falls apart, needs to be fresh sweet onion though or else it gets mealy and blah.

Your cat looks just like my Maui!

I used to make French Onion soup all the time but I made it my own way. I started with a mess of white onions cut in rings then cut in half. I would then sautee these in a mix of butter and olive oil over a somewhat low heat for a very long time until they got nicely browned. I would then slowly add beef broth. I used a boxed broth.

Instead of baking cups of soup in the oven, I tossed some cubes of bread (I didn't use very much as I am diabetic) and Asiago (or whatever kind I had) cheese in the bottom of the soup mugs. I either grated the cheese or cut/broke it in little pieces. Then I poured the hot soup over. Very good and quicker than baking it in the oven.

Alas, I can't have cheese now or I would be making it again.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result. I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned? Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease...

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especia...

      nothing has changed

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can t...

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
