Breakfast/brunch Ideas?

sarahelizabeth Contributor

Does anyone have a yummy breakfast/brunch casserole or likewise recipe to share?? My dad is newly diagnosed celiac and they are staying over for Chrsitmas morning. I don't have a whole lot of time to experiment unfortunatley so I am looking for something tried and true!

I do have a son with celiac so I am used to cooking gluten free... the problem is he also has multiple food allergies so he's FAR more restricted then my dad. Plus he's picky and won't eat most combination foods... or anything that normally an adult would want to eat.

Any help would be appreciated!! TIA!!

Try the omlet in the ziploc idea. A big bowl of scrambled eggs with other side bowls of onions, mushrooms, cheese, etc. Let each person scoop some eggs into his or her own bag and add ingredients that each person wants. Not quite sure of the amount of time to cook, because I haven't tried these, but saw the recipe several times. Zap in the microwave. Maybe someone has the original recipe. If not, try a sample before the family shows up....

Search allrecipes for Oven Baked Eggs.....Easy, doesn't need to be watched over, and can add any combination of ingredients. We have it often.

Cider Sausage is another.....

Hatfield Sausage, crumbled and browned

Jar of Apple Sauce (Chunky is best)

Onion chopped

All baked together

Great on crackers or on its own and even better if cooked ahead of time and re-heated.

My momma makes this and its delicious if you can do both eggs and dairy

take a casserole dish and line it with hash browns. we always used frozen hash browns but i dont know any gluten free brands off the top of my head. then put in eggs and sausage and cheese and any other things you night like. and she always baked it at 400* for maybe a half an hour or so. i would google it though to be sure becuase its been a long time since i made one

good luck. now you have me craving breakfast :P

My family likes breakfast burritos on white corn tortillas. You could speed things up by cooking meats the day before and reheating. Prechop any veggies. Then just cook the eggs and hashbrowns sprinkle on cheese... Serve with fruit, cocoa, juices, muffins...

How funny, I just ran across a recipe for "Baked Omelet" in a Taste Of Home magazine. If you need the recipe I can post it. Let me know for sure b/c I type Veerryyy slooowwww :mellow::lol: No breads or flours just dairy, meat, eggs and veggies.

What is Hatfield sausage? I assume it's a brand. I've never seen it though. But that sounds like a good thing to make for Christmas breakfast.

I have served this recipie lots of times. It has eggs, asparagus, bell peppers, zuchini. Open Original Shared Link

You can add feta cheese (if you're adventurous) or other cheese. (Read the reader reviews.)

For Christmas, I use red bell peppers so you have the Red and Green colors.

Or I make a Farmers' Casserole, like Hannah says. Hash browns, green onions, ham (cubed), cheese, eggs, a bit of milk.

My other fav is from Pasta & Co.'s cookbook. It has caramelized onions, spinach, bacon or canadian bacon and parmesan cheese.

I can post these other recepies tonight if you want me too...they're saved in my computer at home.

I tried this once, even used the heavy duty platic bags and the darned things warped and melted <_<

This is what I was going to suggest, I make it frequently. It's super easy and you can assemble the whole thing the night before. You bake it at 350 for 30-45 minutes--when eggs are set, it's done!

Omlettes in a bag are delicious and fun to make. The way we have always made them are :

Large sauce/stock pan boiling water

1 quart size FREEZER ziplock bag per omlet

1 or 2 eggs

any thing you would like in your omlette

cheese

onions

peppers

sasuage

ham

mushrooms

asperagus

salt and pepper

butter

(choices are endless)

Break your 1-2 eggs into your bag, add any other ingredient you would like, Zip your bag and squish the mixture together.

Drop bag into the boiling water and cook 7-10 min. it depends on how much stuff is in your bag. no more than 5 bags per pan or they dont cook well.

when they are done take out of water, unzip bag, and slide out onto plate.

we would also cut designs, or marks, on the top edge of the bag to have a way of remembering who's bag is who's.

Brother has been recently diagnosed with gluten intolerance (trying to learn as much as I can about it)

      Hello @CeliacNew, If you are Vegan to help you feel better, reconsider returning to omnivore.  Actually, since you are already on a very restrictive diet, transitioning to gluten free might be easier for you.  Read the ingredient labels, Particularly vitamin D and Choline require supplements for vegan diet because our primary source is sun, eggs and beef.  B12 also.

      Once you've completed testing and still don't have improvement, start a trial gluten free diet.  Looking for imprvement that may indicate Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, which is 10 times more prevalent than Celiac Disease. Deficiencies in vitamins B6, B12, D, and C can manifest as skin rashes.  Virtual guaranty you are deficient in vitamin D.

      So those rs numbers tell researchers where the dbSNP is located in a Genome so that other reasearchers or an AI system can look in that specific spot for that Snip of information.  You can look those rs # s by pasting the numbers after rs into the lookup on this page https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/ right under the Blue header bar at the top of the webpage.  Since you are not a researcher, I do not know how this will help you though.

      So I posted here once before, and everyone advocated that I get into a GI doc.  I finally got into my functional health appointment on 6/16 to get my blood results evaluated and get the Gastro referral. I was told that I would be fortunate to see a gastro doctor by December, because of the number of people waiting to get in, but they did believe that I needed to see a GI doc among others.  Well, the stars aligned. I got home. I looked at MyChart and it showed an appointment available for later that same day. I never clicked so fast on an appointment time. The gastro doc ran some additional blood work based off the December values that had confirmed my daughter's suspicion that I have undiagnosed stomach issues.  Gastro has also scheduled me to get an upper endoscopy as well as a colonoscopy since it has been 8 years since my last one. She said it would rule out other concerns if I did not show Celiac per the biopsies.  Those biopsies will not occur until August 29th and like everyone here stated, Gastro wants me to keep gluten in my diet exactly as everyone suggested. To be honest, I was barely eating any gluten since I figured I would have plenty of time to do so before testing.  Doc is also looking for the cause of the low level heartburn that I have had for 30 years.  I have mentioned the heartburn to PCPs in the past and they always said take a tums or other OTC drug.  The upper endoscopy is for ruling out eosinphilic esophagitis, h. pylori, and to biopsy the duodenal bulb and second portion to confirm or exclude celiac. The colonoscopy will have random biopsies to rule out microscopic colitis. I didn't really catch her reasoning for the bloodwork.  Doc looked at the December numbers and said they were definitely concerning for Celiac.  She also said, “Hmm that’s odd; usually it’s the reverse”, but I did not catch which result made her say that. She seems very through.  She also asked why I had never bothered to see a GI before.  To be honest, I told her I just assumed that the heartburn and loose stool were a part of aging.  I have been gassy since I was born and thought constantly passing gas was normal?  Everyone I know with Celiac have horrible symptoms that cannot be attributed to other things.  They are in a lot of stomach pain.  I do not go through that.  I attribute my issues to the lactose intolerance that comes with aging, but have slowly been eliminating foods from my diet due to the heartburn or due my assumption that they did not agree with a medication that I was prescribed. I have already eliminated milk products especially high fat ones like ice cream; fats like peanut butter; acids like citrus and tomatoes; chocolate in all forms; and breads more because it is so hard to get in 100 grams of protein if I eat any foods that are not a protein.  I would not have even done the testing if my daughter had not brought up the fact that she thought I might have an undiagnosed condition since she has issues with bloating and another sibling has periodic undiagnosed stomach pain that GI docs throw pills at instead of helping.  Who knew that Bristol scale 5 and 6 were not considered normal especially multiple times a day? I watched my MIL go through basically the same bowel changes starting at 50 so to be honest, I really did think it was normal before this week's appointment.   December 2024's blood tests ran through Quest Labs were:  Deamidated Gliadin (IgA) 53.8 U/mL Above range >15.0 U/mL; Deamidated Gliadin (IgG) >250.0 U/mL Above Range >15.0 U/mL; Tissue Transglutaminase (IgA) 44.0 U/mL Above range >15.0 U/mL; Tissue Transglutaminase (IgG) <1.0 In range <15.0; Immunoglobulin A (IgA) 274 mg/dL In range 47-310 mg/dL 6/16/25 bloodwork:  Until today, I did not really know what all the four tubes of blood were for and since I did not understand the results, I got into the clinical notes to see what was ordered, but it did not exactly explain why for everything. Immunoglobulins IGG, IGA, IGM all came back in range:  IGG 1,010 mg/dL In range 600-1,714; IgA 261 mg/dL In range 66-433 mg/dL; IGM 189 mg/dL In range 45-281.  How do these numbers help with diagnosis? Google says she checked these to see if I have an ongoing infection? I do have Hashimoto's and she did say once you have one autoimmune disease others seem to follow. Celiac Associated HLD-DQ Typing: DQA1* Value: 05; DQA1*DQA11 Value: 05; DQB1* Value: 02; DQB1-DQB11 Value: 02; Celiac Gene Pairs Present Value: Yes; Celiac HLA Interpretation Value: These genes are permissive for celiac disease.  However, these genes can also be present in the normal population. Testing performed by SSOP.  So google failed me.  I think these results basically say I have genes, but everybody has these genes so this test was just to confirm that there is a vague possibility?  Maybe this test result explains why I do not have the horrible symptoms most individuals with celiac have?  I told the GI my assumption is that I am just gluten intolerant since I do not have the pain? So maybe this test explains why I have antibodies? Comprehensive Metabolic Panel: Everything was in the middle of the normal range.  Google says this just says I am metabolically healthy. Tissue Transglutaminase ABS test results – Done by the Mayo Clinic’s Labs –  T-Transglutaminase IGA AB --Value: 3.1 U/mL – Normal Value is <4.0 (negative) U/mL; Tissue Transglutaminase, IgG -- Value: 15.3 U/mL High -- Normal Value is <6.0 (Negative) U/mL – Interpretation Positive (>9.0) – These are the only labs the GI did that have been labeled Abnormal.  I am confused at how/why these came back different than the December labs? Because these numbers seem to be the opposite of what the were in December and I know I have eaten less gluten.  They were definitely measured differently and had different ranges. This must be why she said they are usually opposite? Molecular Stool Parasite Panel said I was Negative for Giardia Lamblia by PCR; Entamoeba Histolytica by PCR and Cryptosporidium Parvum/Hominis by PCR.  So at least I do not need to do a parasite cleanse like everyone on TikTok seems to be doing. So I guess, I am just really asking why the Tissue Transglutaminase numbers are different.  Was it because they were truly different tests? Is it because I have not consumed the crazy amount of gluten one is suppose to eat prior to testing? To be honest, I thought that was only for the biopsy testing. I generally only eat twice a day, and the thought of eating the equivalent of 6 slices of bread is daunting. Even in my youth, I probably only consumed the equivalent of maybe 3 slices a day. Like I said before, now I usually focus on trying to eat 60 gram of protein.  I am suppose to consume 100 grams, but have failed to succeed. I will focus on eating gluten starting in July now that I know my procedure date.

      I agree with @trents and wiping down the spot you eat your lunch, and eating the food your brought from home should be safe for even sensitive celiacs. Gluten can jump on your food, so it would likely better better for you to continue eating where you prefer.
