Feeling like I needed something "fancy" to boost my spirits and keep me on track.

Grilled romaine, cold quinoa salad on sliced fresh mozzarella and Costco chicken. (Because a girl only has so much energy.)

I had picked up some instant quinoa that microwaved in it's pouch long ago and it was nasty. I doubt I would have tried it again if they hadn't had a cold salad when I took my husband out for father's day. It was delicious so I decided to give it another go. It doesn't burn nearly so easily as rice. :lol:

I'm having Tinkyada brown rice spaghetti-style pasta with doctored-up ready-made spaghetti sauce that I've had stashed in my freezer in single serving sizes. Yum! This time I'm trying the quick cook

This weekend I made Gumbo for the first time, from Emeril's cook book. I used Bisquick gluten-free Mix and it made a roux just fine, although I got a bit impatient stirring and stirring....but well w

yes, ma'am - i was born & raised in new jersey, so, i KNOW what you're talking about - hard to get things to grow in such a short growing season!

....and our season here is far shorter than New Jersey as we are far north of you. At least we have very long summer days! :D

I'm trying for tacos tonight.

Don't know how this will work, I'm used to traditional foods...not tacos. Wish me luck.

Tonight I finished off my quinoa salad with a burger on an arepa. Since Velveeta is one of the few cheeses I can eat now that's what I topped my burger with.

What's your recipe for split pea soup? Do you get dry peas? And do you think turkey bacon would be a sufficient sub for ham? Maybe brined chicken?

Turkey bacon would be ok. The soup that Irish have may call for ham and is provably very, very delicious, but it can be done with bacon. The soup will taste like bacon and who likes bacon will like the soup too. I will cut bacon on tiny slices, and roast it without oil. When the bacon is nice and crispy, I will mix bacon and dripping from it into soup- as the last ingredients because I like to preserve crispiness of bacon.

I never made split pea soup, or sauce with ham (nobody does in my family). I'm using dry peas because peas from can is very sweet. I tried to make the soup once from canned peas, but nobody liked it.

I'm going to throw my Costco chicken carcass on the stove this afternoon and turn it into chicken rice soup for supper. I'm completely off store bought stock and bouillon so for the first time the pressure is on to get the broth just right. (I've done it before but never under pressure.) I'll probably have more grilled lettuce with it instead of a regular salad.

I made my own mayo last night, yay! Making tuna salad today so I'll have a tuna melt on an arepa with fresh mozzarella. I think I'll have grilled tomatoes to go with it. I keep telling my husband to bring me a watermelon to grill but he keeps coming home empty handed and it isn't like I can drive until I have my vision back. :( I'd walk for it but I'm not carrying home a watermelon!

Actually, I believe that EatMeat4Good loves chicken livers, too. :) You've got company. Enjoy!

It is VERY hot here today, and even though I hate it, the AC is on, so I pulled out the counter top rotisserie and herbed up a chicken.

A mixed green salad with goat cheese, dried cranberries, carmelized walnuts and balsamic dressing.

I've been away from home for several days (dog/housesitting) so have not been cooking. Instead, I did all the cooking before coming out. Very simple tonight:

Buffalo Pulled Chicken

Lemon-infused Rice

Broccoli Slaw

Strawberries

Can't wait to do serious cooking at home in a few days! Though I do LOVE it out here in the country... :)

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I have had low Vit D for years before my Celiac diagnosis. I recommend Nature Made, it’s everywhere. GET THE TABLET, not the oil based capsule. The soy oil in the capsules give me diarrhea!

      I'm not yet diagnosed, seeing a GI March 4th I'm keeping a food diary and yesterday I went to play cards at a friends house and ate things I don't ordinarily eat- mainly a bunch of those mini chocolates that ppl typically give out at Halloween (hershey kisses, mr goodbar. milkway, snickers) I ate er... too many.  also had a tiny bit of some kind of creamy salad dressing on raw veggies.  I had SOO much pain last night in my feet- burning, numbness and pain in my feet and ankles, and a bit less so in my knees. Lasted for hours, kept me up half the night at the same time, the trouble with constipation that I've had ever since being put on the chlorthalidone, has started to improve but then gets worse again...and I can't figure out what is making it worse and what is helping it   it is like my entire digestive tract just shuts down.   Before finding out that I may have a renal calcium leak, I did not use fortified plant milks and did not consume dairy. Since being told to consume 1000-1200 mgs of calcium from food per day- I switched to fortified soy and almond milk and added some non fat or low fat plain yogurt (It is very hard to get that much  calcium from other sources without eating an enormous amt of food- I'm 70 and just can't eat that much. I'm already seeing my weight creep up which is disturbing)   I am seeing that ppl with celiac can have issues with dairy- what would those issues be? Did I get glutened yesterday unknowingly or does chocolate or that tiny bit of salad dressing I had have gluten in it?   My feet are fine this morning! thank goodness but the pain was excruciating last night.   I don't know what to do.  I am thinking that I should ditch the dairy  (which I never really wanted to consume in the first place) and maybe anything with calcium carbonate in it (that is very constipating for me) not only has my GI system slowed down, my stools are strange-  round and often float. This so so different from what used to be my normal (on the Bristol stool score it was in the ideal range) I will go several times a day - these meatball sized round floaters I don't know if I'm still dealing with the after affects of the chlorthalidone (which has a very long half life- my last dose of that was Feb 9th or 11th - I'll have to look that up but I think it's been almost a week.   I just want all this pain and discomfort to stop. but I don't know where it's coming from. those 12 days on gluten have just wrecked my whole system it seems.   any ideas what I might do to help things get back to normal?

I need to find another gi but its useless because its going to be same thing around here.i just feel lost and in tbe medical file they are writing what ever and its really not ok. In fact i dont want to go unless they record the conversation. Yes its that bad.im only having  care and concern for my ms whose Not part of the same health association that pcp and gi are with.I will have to look into changing to another. Mayo clinic is great but its the celiac, sibo, ect and all related issues that need addressed but current " careteam says call when needed. No plans of scheduled dates
