WOW.....You are a fancy lot of GFers this evening. I am a little embarrassed with my dinner selection....but here goes.

A bowl of corn

2 slices of toasted udi's bread with butter

2 ounces of Balsamic Asiago cheese

I take a bite of toast, then a piece of cheese, and a spoonful of corn in my mouth at the same time....yummy..

Last night I had a hamburger on a Rudi's bun. The bun was okay. It was the only brand my local health food store had. I think I can do just as well by making my own hamburger buns and a whole lot cheaper than $5.99 for four. I still want to try Udi's.

Tonight will most likely be breakfast casserole and either gluten-free biscuits or cinnamon buns. A bowl of fruit on the side.

Tonight we had yummy leftovers from last evening (Swedish meatballs et. al. with the addition of freshly-baked gluten-free bread slathered with homemade strawberry jam). This weekend we are dogsitting in the country and are taking things along to make the following for tomorrow night:

Cider Brined Roast Chicken with Saffron, Citrus and Honey Glaze

Roast Potatoes, Garlic and Carrots (in with the chicken)

Crisp Haricot Verts with Pignoli

More homemade gluten-free bread likely with fig honey we brought back from Croatia

sb2178 Enthusiast

mmm, now I'm thinking of pignoli cookies.

Any, my supper was:

quick steamed cabbage (s & p only)

split pea falafel

bread (gasp)

homemade nutella

Strawberries

and wine

Leftover breakfast casserole for me and the big kids. A fresh batch of rice flour biscuits for everyone. Probably fruit and cheese to go with the biscuits for the little kids (they don't like eggs).

We had Chicken fried steak, mashed poatoes and spinach. All smothered in gravy. Good ole Southern Comfort Food. :)

I made baked chicken, carrots and broccoli.

His and hers pulled pork sandwiches. His on hamberger buns, her's open face on toasted Udi's. :D Both of us had saurkraut on the side. His with BBQ sauce.

We had banana nut chocolate cookies for dessert. (I think that's the only thing I bake anymore.)

For some reason that strikes me as so very cute! Not to mention delicious. Pulled pork is just so darned comforting.

We had sea bass seared in butter with just a little salt, pepper and garlic. The hubs wanted potato chips and ketchup (which I generally find to be offensive) so I made a salad out of fresh cauliflower, green beans, cucumber and dill and mixed in a couple of tablespoons of yogurt, finished off with a little squeeze of lemon. Even my son ate it. :ph34r: It was delicious.

Also had some vinho verde. My favorite summer wine.

kareng Grand Master

I feel I have something worth reporting:

Salmon on the girll with a grilled pinepple salsa, rice, peppers, cheese casserole, a lovely Chardonny..

Oink!

Tonight I am making homemade gluten-free ravioli filled with my own mint ricotta and homemade pumpkin seed pesto, finished with a drizzle of pumpkin seed oil. Microgreens from the garden with apple cider vinegar and sumac vinaigrette. Homemade gluten-free bread with garlic chive butter.

My husband tells me almost daily how grateful he is! But I love to cook and bake so much that it is a pleasure. If I open a restaurant you will be the first to be invited! :lol: Thanks for the kind words.

I have something to look forward to when I get over my dairy intolerance!! Buttermilk biscuits and sausage gravy. OMG. You're giving me food envy! B)

I'm a skinny thing and need to put weight on my bones, would love to do it with biscuits and gravy!

Love, pulled pork only takes 30 minutes in a pressure cooker! (But you brown the pork and onions, carrots, etc first.) I used a N. Carolina BBQ sauce found online that was just apple cider vinegar, dried pepper, brown sugar, red pepper, garlic and knowing me I added onion. Made that the night before, and stuck it out on the porch. I added left over pinapple juice too.

I think the BBQ sauce will be good on any meats as a marinade, and perhaps as a good insect repellant. (Hope so, made 1/2 a gallon of it.)

Last night I made pressure cooked beef shank Osco Busco.

      If you mean continueing on Gluten Free my answer is yes.  She showed significant improvement in her behavior and that translates to a happy family.  Do get her tested as sooon as you can.  You might want to investigate genetic testing for Celiac Disease.  Children recover more quickly than adults.  It took my son about 6 months on Nutramigen before going to regular food, gluten free.  Blood tests are not always accurate in very young children. You may be advised to see a gastroenterologist instead of relying on blood tests results. Logic: She is better off gluten than before.  Wheat flour has no nutritional value and has an omega 6: omega 3 ratio of 22:1.  Our bodies do better at 3:1.  Omega 6 causes inflammation. When my son was diagnosed, back in 1976, his doctor recommended my wife and I also go gluten free.  We declined and lived to regret it.  I started GFD at 63 and have spent the last 10 years undoing the damage, some of my symptons went all the way back to my childhood and things I lived with all my life got better.

      Hi @Nicbent35,             When my son was diagnosed with Celiac Disease when he was weaned, so I understand your frustration.       With improvement so dramatic, it cannot be a coincedence. Get her to the doctor and tell the story and insist on testing.  In the meantime, though, continue on GFD.  Her health is more important than convincing a doctor.  Bring videos of her behaviors if you can.  Even if the blood tests and biopsy prove negative, that is part of the diagnosis process for NCGS and later when she is recovered you can always do a Gluten Challenge.      This is an important time in her developement.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption syndrome, leading to malnutrition, regardles of what she eats.  Though NCGS may not cause malabsorption, it will affect food choices which can lead to malnutrition.  There may be benifits that an official diagnosis may have, but they don't trump a healthy child.      Get her healthy, then worry about validation later.  Celiac Disease is difficult to diagnosed, especially in children, because doctors look for antibodies in the blood and young children have immature immune systems.  Also you don't mention any gastrologic symtoms and celiac disease is traditionally considered gastrolic only.  Not true.  There are over 200 symptom that celiac disease and the accompaning malnutrion mimics or causes that often causes misdiagnosis and delay in recovery. While at the doctors, ask them about vitamin D deficiency and Iodine deficiency in particular. Milk being the primary source of iodine in the diet, but concerns exist regarding the lower iodine content in organic milk and reduced milk consumption in certain demographics.  Vitamin D deficiency is 40% of the industrialized population and a recent study in the Great Britain showed a wopping 60%, beaten only by some areas of Canada at 70%. And B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6.  Deficiencies in these are common in untreated Celiac Disease and they affect energy production. Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results?
    • knitty kitty
      @plumbago, Are you taking any folate with your B12?   Folate helps regulate HDL levels.  You may try taking a methylfolate supplement with your B12.   If there's a folate deficiency because you aren't absorbing sufficient folate, or have the MThF mutation causing a functional folate deficiency (methylfolate trap), you can have a functional B12 deficiency despite supplementing, resulting in HDL levels not getting regulated, but running high or low.   Pushing the envelope in explanations, too. P. S. Are you taking a B Complex?  Folate and B12 Cobalamine need enzymes made from B6 Pyridoxine's interaction with Thiamine, and B2 Riboflavin's interaction with Thiamine.  Is your Vitamin D low?

      Thank you for all that helpful info, does that mean it’s not a good idea to do what I’m doing? Or since it’s only been a week should I see if I could get her tested now? Would it show up still since it hasn’t been long if they tested her?

      Welcome to the forum, @Nicbent35! There is something called gluten withdrawal that might have come into play here as well. As strange as it might sound, gluten has some addictive properties similar to opiates and some people feel physically and emotionally out of sorts for a few weeks after it is removed from their diet. There are two recognized gluten disorders, celiac disease (aka, "gluten intolerance") and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (aka, NCGS or just "gluten sensitivity" for short). They have symptoms that overlap. The difference is that celiac disease is an autoimmune condition that causes inflammation in the small bowel lining and, over time, damages the lining of the small bowel. There are specialized blood antibody tests that have been developed for diagnosing celiac disease. NCGS, on the other hand, does not damage the lining of the small bowel. No tests are yet available for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out in order to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS but NCGS is 10x more common than celiac disease. Please be aware that if your daughter is on a gluten free diet, the celiac disease blood antibody tests will not give valid results. For the testing to be valid, she would need to have been eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months leading up to the day of the blood draw. If you remove gluten from her diet as an experiment, valid testing can be done later on but she would need to be restarted on gluten for weeks/months ahead of the blood draw. Also be aware that once on a gluten free diet, restarting gluten can produce more severe symptoms because all tolerance may have been lost.
