I made a fabulous spicy Mexican marinade for chicken which will be grilled. We are also grilling red onion. Then, with queso freso, we are making quesidillas which will be grilled until everything inside is ooey gooey.

To go with the quesidillas will be zucchini fritters and corn on the cob with chipotle butter.

I would love to have a zucchini fritter recipe, care to share? Pretty please:)

It's a bit cooler today so we are having sirloin burgers on the grill with lots of new fresh tomatoes and pickles and lots of fresh veg. Watermelon for dessert.

I'm cooking a cabbage soup with Hungarian dry sausage and tomato sauce and with that we will have garlic knots rolls. I made them from my Challah recipe. Yummy!!

Steak again... poor me, such suffering. :lol: Salad with fresh, still warm from the sun, orange tomatoes from my garden and corn on the cob.

I also picked up some gelato today, I saw it on sale for BOGO and was tempted to buy out the whole store. Of course I just had to have my husband along and he was all blah blah blah you know you shouldn't have the chocolate ones. <_< Jerk. Okay, okay, I know he's really just looking out for me but at that moment in time all I wanted was the double chocolate. Anywho, that's what's for dessert. I was a good girl and got the vanilla which is absolutely amazing.

Just substitute the gluten-y AP flour for your favourite AP blend.

Thanks for the recipe l2t. I am going to try it as soon as the weather gets cooler.

No cooking today. I have a basket of tomatoes that are all ripe so I think I will just cut big fat slices and put Parm, salt,pepper and oil on them. no one seems to be very hungry anyway.

A BLT on Annalise Roberts' Basic Sandwich bread and potato chips. I haven't had a BLT for ages and my Early Girl tomato plant is becoming prolific.

Friday night we had pizza and mint chocolate chip ice cream topped with whipped cream for my daughter's birthday.

Saturday was the birthday party and we had scrambled eggs, hashbrowns, bacon, sausage, mini corn muffins, cinnamon apple wedges, fruit salad (watermelon, blueberries, strawberries and grapes)and mini brownie bites with whipped cream for dessert.

Tonight I'm making chicken topped with leftover sauce, leftover pepperoni and some mozzarella cheese plus noodles and sauce.

Another fabulous family gathering supper was had here, lake side ofcourse due to this beautiful weather!! We had pork loin and steak on the grill, new potatoes, beet greens, rhubarb chard, green salad, deviled eggs, and homemade vanilla ice cream with butterscotch topping to finish the evening off.....holy lovin' I'm full!! Haha my Aunt has always said that if you go hungry around here, it's your own fault!! She's right!! ????

Sweet onion Bubba burgers with cheddar cheese, mayo and ketchup on Rudi's bread served with roasted potatoes.

the other night, i made potato gnocchi. to. die. for! first time i made it and it was soooo easy i can't believe i never tried it before. we had it with fried sausage, carmelized onions and wilted spinach. no sauce on the gnocchi, really, just boiled and then tossed in brown butter. i copycatted it from a martha stewart show recipe :)

as we were (NOM NOM) eating the yummy pasta potato pillows, we were thinking of all the different sauces that would go with the gnocchi. i would like to try an alfredo-ey sauce with them next, i think... or a mushroomy stroganoffy type sauce. or just veggies in butter.... o, the possibilities!!

plus: it was EASY and CHEAP - two of my favorite words :D

~**caselynn**~ Enthusiast

Tonight is steaks on the grill with potatoes and onions grilled as well!

Pork chops, cauliflower with cheese sauce, maybe some taters. Not really sure but I feel like I need something else there. The hubs is having french fries but I don't really need to be stuffing my face with something deep fried.

Grilled burger night with all the fixins! Caramelized onion, homemade BBQ sauce, chipotle mayonnaise, capers, aged Pecorino, tomatoes (our garden tomatoes are not ready yet, Sylvia!). Not my homemade buns this time - I'm using Udi's. Baja cabbage slaw and grape popsicles. You've got to be kids every now and then! :P

Would you please let me know when you're making this again and give me directions to your house? laugh.gif

I'm going to have some leftover spinach quiche and a salad.

Isn't gnocchi great? I love it when I hear of people making it. It's almost embarassing how easy it is but tastes so luscious. And talk about endless possibilities! I make it often. Last week I made it with a local spicy sausage and tomato ragout.

Hmmm...that's not exactly what my kids would have thought as being a "kids" meal. laugh.gif

I told my son last night on the phone that I was going to be ready to give them tomatoes this week...even if I eat them 3 times a day, I won't be able to use them all. And I have only one Early Girl tomato plant, which will produce until frost.

I love gnocchi's too.

I made stir fry with beef and broccoli, red pepper, baby corn, sprouts and onion on rice noodle.

      Wow!! Scott, Trent and Christiana thank you so much for your fast replies!! The information you have shared with me has helped me tremendously.   Thank you for all the articles.  I appreciate you all so much!! I’ll keep you posted in this post.  I will encourage her to get tested.  I feel a little better!

      It was gradual, just not being able to catch my breathe like I always had to take a deep breathe even taking a few steps I would be winded.

      Hi Marie Welcome to the forum. I am so sorry your daughter is pointing the finger at you like this.   I am afraid children of any age can be very cruel to their parents - I certainly look back at some of the things I said to my mother and father in the past, and wish I could unsay them.  Sometimes people just need a safe place to vent, and unfortunately having a go at one's parents is the all too easy option.  If she is anything like me, she will regret what she says one day.  (Oh... if only I had the chance rewind the clock!) I just wanted to add one more thing to Trent's and Scott's excellent posts and that is regarding diet:  I have to say, not one person  (my nutritionist, my gastroenterologist or GP) has EVER suggested that a poor diet was the cause of my coeliac disease.    In all the various clinics I have attended these past nearly 12 years no-one has ever asked if I was brought up on processed food, or questioned if I eat 5 fruit and veg a day.  Sure, unfortunately I am only too well aware that I could do a lot better with my diet and it's a constant challenge for me not to give into what I like (unfortunately I've always had a sweet tooth).   But I know some super healthy 10 fruit and veg a day types who still got coeliac disease, and equally, a lot of people who eat all the wrong stuff and they still have cast iron stomachs. Do encourage her to get checked though - it may be that she hasn't got coeliac disease at all. Come back to us if you need any more support through the process. Cristiana

      Welcome to the forum, @Marie70! The first thing to know is that celiac disease has a genetic base. The two main genes that have been identified as providing the potential to develop celiac disease are HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8. About 40% of  the general population carries one or both of these genes. However, only about 1% of the general population ever develops celiac disease. So, we know that in addition to possessing the genetic potential to develop celiac disease, there has to be some triggering environmental or medical "stress" factor (or factors) that switches the gene or genes on such that they are awakened from their latent condition and become active. What may be the triggering factor (or factors) is the subject of much debate. Here is an article that discusses this subject: Second, what will your daughter have to say if her testing for celiac disease is negative? She may have to add crow to her diet. Third, and this is what I really want to focus on because my wife and I are dealing with something similar in our relationship with our own adult daughter: the real problem is not whatever shortcomings you, as the family cook, may have had when providing meals, the real problem is with your daughter's heart/soul/attitude. If it turns out to be true that she has celiac disease, it is likely she would have developed the condition sooner or later even if her diet had been healthier while growing up. She is angry about the prospect of having to deal with the dietary and social limitations that having celiac disease would impose upon her. She doesn't want to face up to the fact that this may be a new reality that will dramatically changer her life and she is looking for someone or something to blame. And she has conveniently turned her wrath on you rather than saying to herself, "Okay, this is what it is. Now what can I do to make adjustments in order to with it the best way I can?"  When faced with a life-changing reality, people will either accept it for what it is, make adjustments and move on or they will become angry and look for something or someone to blame and get stuck. For now, at least, your daughter has chosen the latter option. Don't let her problem destroy both of you.

      It sounds like you’re carrying a lot of guilt, but please know that you didn’t cause your daughter’s potential celiac disease or your son’s Crohn’s. These conditions have strong genetic components, and while diet can influence symptoms, it does not cause autoimmune diseases. You did the best you could with the knowledge you had at the time, and no parent is perfect. Your daughter’s frustration is understandable, but it’s likely coming from a place of fear and uncertainty rather than true blame. Let her get tested, and if she does have celiac disease, you can support her moving forward. Instead of focusing on guilt, try shifting the conversation toward healing and learning together. You’re not alone, and you don’t deserve to carry this weight on your own. This article might be helpful. She needs to be screened for celiac disease before she can be sure that she has it. Another approach not discussed in the article is a genetic test for celiac disease, which she could do without eating gluten.
