I thought it might be fun if we had a thread where we shared what we're cooking up for dinner:) I am not an experienced cook so coming up with gluten free menus for me and my boyfriend feels like a ch

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

Broccoli rabe most likely, if it is mostly stems.

Making some Portuguese Pulled Pork, creamy coleslaw and roasted garlic mashed potatoes. Will have leftover chocolate pots de creme with toasted hazelnuts and cacao nibs.

It has warmed up to -15 (minus 15) so my walk was unusually lovely. So much nicer than -32 and colder....brrrrrr....

Weird. I did not intend for this to appear in the square! <_<

Chicken stir here, nice bit of bok choy plus the usual suspects.

We are mostly doing wet and windy here, nearly got blown away by the beach yesterday. I think I love the windswept beach as much as the sunny one ( just in shorter doses).

My cure for the winter vegetable blahs is always a roast up of root vegetbles - sweet potatoes, potatoes, parsnips, onions, shallots, and a zucchini if you can find it and some tomatoes tossed in at the end.

I love things like this. I also have a nice stash of squash I haven't quite used up yet. Vegetables that don't feel all in your face but are more comfort food and wintery and palatable when all you want is meat meat and more meat.

Tonight I'm just making a quick beef and broccoli since we had lunch at about 3.

Speaking of lunch, just have to say that I have the best mom. We went over to visit and weren't going to stay long, but mom decided to make my daughter a loaf of bread so she can try grilled cheese. So we were spending a little more time with them and then my gram wants sandwiches so my mom goes out to the store and buys my girls Schar white bread and Schar chocolate dipped cookies and made them ham, turkey, salami and provolone sandwiches with pickles and dill pickle chips for lunch.

Ditto! I loves me some root veggies (with a little wine and brussel sprouts thrown in but please hold the tomatoes for me)

What a sweet Mom/Gramma! :wub: Those Schar choc- dipped cookies are pretty tasty. I had them once and thought, okay, maybe it is best if they are not around all the time as I do not need to be waddling..

Steak with Quick Onion Confit

Broccoli

with Mac & Cheese for the guys -- loving using sharp cheddar cheese spread for quick mac and cheese -- they are loving it more ;)

Walked 6 miles in the rain this morning with my dog -- she hates rain and water but was a trooper -- mile 4 she said she was done -- a little pep talk and she sprung back to it -- gotta love their spirit.

Then movie theater hopping date with my 17 year old -- Les Mis plus Silver Linings -- and I still am not tired. Is this how non celiacs feel their whole life?

Going to experiment with these spring roll wrap things. I'm kinda scared of them, they are so thin :blink: . But I'm up to the challenge.

Last night - grilled steaks ( marinated a bit in Teryaki) and some red potatoes with olive oil in foil packets. Green beans. Got some odd red potatoes. The select the ones you want we're picked over so I grabbed a bigger bag. They cooked up really soft and were yellow colored on the inside. M said they are like buttery potatoes. Today I looked at the bag and they are called Butter red potatoes and meant for mashing. We liked them.

Tonight we are having lasagna. I might add a layer of spinach so we don't have to have salad, too?

I like to put what I am fixing on here because I think this talk of conflicts and pots de creme might scare regular folks away! :)

Even if they fall apart, the fillings will still be tasty.

If its a tomato based sauce, blend it up into really small pieces and stir it in. You can pass it off as parsley if asked :P I believe you can also do this with broccoli too.

Mac and cheese i think. I forgot to lay something out and yeah... ^_^

Yo Ski!

While watching the Travel Channel today, I saw a place called Hash House A Go Go in SD.

He's big on bacon and even serves a BLT Mary (a bloody Mary BLT) That would be fun, except his place looks like gluten hell--all those waffles

and such.

Dinner tonight:

Pork tenderloin with onions

Applesauce

Roasted root veggies

Also:

I made some of Bette Hagman's English Muffins for the hubs yesterday. Toasted them up with his eggs today--and he was just so happy!

:)

Seen it...haven't been there -- the Bacon Bloody caught our eye as well -- once I get bacon tomato and vodka back we'll go give it a shot :D

Be sure to tell him "hold the bread" on yours ( apparently, he serves it with bread and thick tomato slices) One lady was making YUM YUM sounds

on camera, so it must be good.

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      Aw thank you so much for replying so quickly. Just wish the endoscopy had been clearer but as you say she might be in the early stages although she’s had gastric intestinal symptoms for a few years now but was told it was IBS. She won’t get the results for about 12 weeks which is frustrating, so hopefully if she trials a gluten free diet things will hopefully improve even if only slightly. I know improvements aren’t likely to happen immediately

      Blood results

      By trents · Posted

      Well, you've done both stages of testing now, the blood testing and the scope/biopsy so there is no reason to postpone trialing a gluten-free diet. And, yes, we get many reports on this forum from people with similar diagnostic experiences that leave them without desired clarity. My take would be your daughter is in the early stages of developing active celiac disease, perhaps transitioning from NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) to celiac.

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      Hi  My daughter has had her endoscopy and biopsies done but still none the wiser as to whether it’s coeliac even though she has many of the signs and symptoms. Gastroenterologist not 100% convinced as herEMAb blood test was negative even though her TTG Ab19 was positive at 19, lab range was 0.0-7.0. Bulb D1 biopsy potentially looked a little flat/strophic, D2 relatively unremarkable. Also found some oesophagitis and mild gastritis, biopsy taken from there. She has also to hand take another stool sample for faecal Calprotectin which I’ve never heard of!! Als advised to trial a gluten free diet. Just wondering if anyone has had similar results. Thanks so much

      Nutrient deficiencies despite normal MARSH and strict gluten-free diet

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Natalia Revelo! Yes, I've been in a similar situation.  You can read about my journey in my blog here. I found most doctors and others do not pay much attention to vitamins.  Herbal supplements can be helpful, but they can't help as much as supplementing with vitamins.  You're not deficient in herbs, you're deficient in essential nutrients. Vitamins are chemical compounds that our bodies cannot make.  The body must absorb theses essential vitamins from what we consume.  The Gluten Free diet can be low in these vitamins.  Gluten free processed facsimile foods are usually not fortified nor enriched with vitamins to replace those lost in processing like gluten containing foods are required to do.  Malabsorption of celiac disease can cause deficiencies in these essential vitamins as well.  Correction of nutritional deficiencies is essential.  Doctors are not required to complete many hours of nutritional education (twenty hours compared to seven years in medical schools funded by big pharma companies).   There are nine water soluble vitamins, the eight B vitamins and Vitamin C, four fat soluble vitamins, A, D, E and K.  There are about a dozen trace minerals heeded, too.  Without these, our bodies' health slowly deteriorates.   Iron deficiency requires not only iron, but the eight essential B vitamins, and Vitamin C to make red blood cells.  The B vitamins and magnesium and other trace minerals like boron are needed to build the bone matrix.  Vitamin D is needed to regulate the immune system, make hormones and build bones and healthy joints.  Vitamin D helps with depression. The eight essential B vitamins are needed for brain function.  Deficiency in Thiamine B 1 and the other B vitamins can cause weight loss, anorexia, depression, as well as anxiety and panic attacks.   I suffered through the same symptoms because my doctors did not recognize nutritional deficiencies.  I had studied nutrition before switching to Microbiology at university, because I wanted to find out what those vitamins were doing inside the body.  They are instrumental in repairing and healing our bodies.  They are necessary for proper brain function.  Nutritional deficiencies develop over time and our health declines on a sliding scale as our vitamin stores are depleted and not restocked.  Nutritional deficiencies can drag on for years.   Blood tests for nutritional deficiencies in the B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  The best way to see if you're deficient is to take B vitamins and look for health improvements.  High dose thiamine can help immensely.  Mitochondria die if there's insufficient thiamine, adding to poor health.  Thiamine Mononitrate is frequently used in vitamin supplements because it won't deteriorate in a jar on a shelf, Thiamine Mononitrate is shelf stable, and is as unreactive in the body as in a jar on a shelf.  Other forms of thiamine are easier for our bodies to utilize.  Benfotiamine promotes intestinal healing.  The form of thiamine called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) improves brain function, mental health problems, and therefore body function.   Celiac disease greatly affects ones ability to absorb essential nutrients.  Correction of nutritional deficiencies quickly is important because, well, we've seen how bad our health can get if deficiencies are allowed to drag on for years.  We cannot eat sufficient food to correct  nutritional deficiencies.  Supplementation with essential vitamins and minerals is required.
