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

Gracie wandered the woods in NY and never had a single flea. None of the cats either.....until the last year we were there.Started seeing fleas

on our feet as we walked on the carpet. Dang! so, what happened?

 

 

We had used Frontline for years, then Advantage. Then, the flea infestation.
 
Our vet encouraged us to switch up treatments. She felt they could lose effectiveness, 
 
We have to use Revolution now---Florida comes with a different set of rules for pets apparently---

and heartworm is a bigger issue here.Just a suggestion.

 

Dinner last night was ice cream. And a cookie. 

 

I am hoping for more sustenance today, but it depends on how well i can swallow....Soup may be the answer. 

 

note to self: don't sip from the same water bottle as the hubs when he says "I think my allergies are kicking up"

 

That wasn't your " allergies',  dude.  <_< ah well....this, too shall pass.  ^_^

Went to the grocery store for milk and they had Nut Thins on sale so I got those, $2.50/box :D.  Now that most of the new labels are on the shelves, It sure was quicker picking out foods today.  I didn't get much but everything I picked up said Gluten Free right on the label.

Made chicken breasts marinaded in Walden Farms Bacon Ranch dressing--gluten-free and NO calories :D.  and then breaded with some bread crumbs I made from the ends of my Udi bread.  Nummy.

 

Hubs made cupcakes from a King Arthur (I think) box mix.  They are a little dry but not bad.  I got some Cream Cheese frosting to put on them.

I was rather under the weather for a few days. The weather overnight Friday night was stormy and when I got up Saturday I wasn't even sure if it would clear enough for me to go to the market since I don't use a canopy. But it cleared up enough for me to see blue sky over the lake to the west so I headed down. The weather turned out perfect too! Except that it was so cool and perfect it didn't occur to me not to stand in the sun like a moron all day, so I got burnt and ended up sick from it too. Derp. It's easy to forget that sunburn can happen just as fast in cool weather just as it cools off. Lesson learned.

 

But I'm feeling much better, so tonight was taco night. Tomorrow is fish n chips night. I think I'll make some rolls or biscuits or something tomorrow too. And chocolate chip cookies. I'm enjoying this new ATK cookbook way too much. ^_^

Even though I can't eat right now, I am so happy to read your post this morning and pretend I am eating with you.

I told these guys I heard from you a few times and that you were transitioning well to your new home, but it's not the same as having you here  "back at the dinner table" with us  :D

xxoo 

 

Still feeling lousy, Going to make soup in the slow cooker....right after this short nap.

LOVE2  :D   So happy to see you again.  I love googleing what you food is  :lol:  :lol:  I do hope you have a guest house for all of us to come and visit?  Or at least a big tent !!  I would love to see a bit of Croatia, can you email some pics?  It sounds like you are feeling better out of that bitter cold, Hooray for that!

 

For Dinner?  I gave up food.  I only drink coffee now so I might be able to use the facilities..... :ph34r:

They're right, it is good to have you back! Seeing what you're having is always an inspiration to try new and interesting things.

 

A few ears of red corn were ready out in the garden so we'll be adding those to dinner tonight. First picked of the year. It has such an amazing flavor that isn't like any other corn we've ever had (which is why we planted this kind) and we can't wait for it to be time to eat tonight and it's still barely past noon! ^_^

I've never heard of red corn..sounds really good!!

 

I have ribs out for dinner.  Hubs will be home really late so I may do two batches of them so they are fresh when he gets home.

Red corn sounds cool...can't remember where I heard someone was making "Christmas Enchiladas" with red corn tortillas...oh ya, it was on the funnypages from a grade school friend.

Tonight is Baked fish and veggie foil packets with a new dressing I picked up on sale 'Mango Chipoltle'.

Mango slices on the side.

Needed to leave the house today, so went to the store for a watermelon as a consolation prize. It'll be a perfect dessert for the night. The weather is delightful. Cloudy, cool, breezy. Couldn't be better. B)

Not sure what I'm going to make tonight.  Hubs has been working really late all week so I might just skip making anything tonight and just eat whatever :D

Chicken Stir fry.  Wanted to try the San-J Thai peanut sauce but the grocery didn't have it.  Will have to try to make something myself. I never write down how much of what I put in and then - if its yummy - I can't remember what I did the last time!  Probably just melt a little PB and mix with soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, a few pepper flakes, maybe a splash of rice vinegar....

 

Kids are both at college now.  I am trying to use up stuff I have.  Went to the grocery and didn't get any chocolate milk or gatorade or crackers....  Sort of odd.   :unsure:

Kinda odd is right.  Last I went shopping I put his Peach Snapple in the cart, then almost cried.  Skipped the frozen food section all together.  Interesting thing is we talk on the phone more often then we ever talked when he was here.  Don't know if I'll ever get over him being on his own.

 

Hubs put a roast in the KFG, it smells good already  :D

Thank you!  It is nice to be back.  We have now had the internet up and running for a consecutive week!  Yay!!  :D

 

Colleen, of course... if you would like Croatia pictures, I would be happy to email you some, if I am able to choose from the 873,601,274 we have! 

 

Hopefully you are all healthy and back to your normal selves.  :)

 

Tonight is:

 

Roasted chicken breasts with slow-roasted tomato, red pepper and onion sauce.  Chicken pounded thinly to cook evenly and to prevent from drying out.

Herb-roasted cauliflower

Cucumber coleslaw

Fresh blackberry tart which I am about to make.  :)

 

Yes, I am still in the honeymoon phase here :wub: but it is so marvelous to have access to such amazing fresh foods here!  I love foraging for berries.  I would like to for all sorts of mushrooms, too, but will hold off until I can go with someone who knows what they are doing.  And white truffle season begins in about a month...sigh...my weakness!  ^_^  Well, one of my weaknesses!  :lol:

Something has been setting off my stomach the past couple days.  I don't know if it's gluten or just maybe a bug of some kind??  I haven't eaten out, house is gluten-free so no idea what it could be.  Only thing I can think of is maybe Rice Chex and maybe I just can't do rice for a while??  I've had rice chex with peaches the past couple days, Udi bread with peanut butter (that was new and not exposed to gluten stuff), Ore Ida hash browns--says gluten-free on the bag, BBQ ribs--BBQ sauce says gluten-free but I do a rub of a BBQ spice mix that is gluten-free and brown sugar.  Is brown sugar not gluten-free????

Yes.  Brown sugar is gluten-free.  Unless its left-over from gluten baking and might have had measuring cups traveling from the flour into the sugar?

 

There are a lot of ingredients in all those foods -Chex, Udi's, BBQ sauce, etc.  Hard to figure out what might be an issue.  Maybe try less processed foods for a few days?  I don't know what it is about gluten-free breads, gums maybe?  But I can't eat them everyday or my system gets "off".  Ore Ida potato products I could eat everyday......  and I have the thighs to prove it!   :lol:

Brown sugar I just opened to make the ribs and since opening is in a brand new storage container so that should be ok.  I forgot coffee and coffee creamer, N-joy brand fake creamer but it says gluten-free online so who knows.  The coffee is "Donut House" , not flavored, Keruig stuff.  It's also hard to know if it's a response right away to what I'm eating--so the rice chex or peaches, or from last night, ribs and potatoes.  I LOVE Ore-Ida french fries and hash browns :D.  Did you know they sell chopped frozen onions too :D.

I use that Keruig coffee! I have been using the frozen onions for .........my whole life!

Anyway..... I am back to - cut out the processed, multi- ingredient stuff for a couple of weeks and see if you feel better. Then add them in one at a time.

Awesome!!

Just picks up a few pounds of thick and along with a few pounds of regular sliced....whatever shall I do?

Hey where is our bacon dancing dude?

Dinner is fresh yellowtail...I can't eat it even seared of late so made some interesting dipping sauce for my sashimi slices. Hubs is eating light with me and then off to ride around the city in an unruly mob...just kidding...I just don't enjoy ridding in groups...too nerve racking. Just slightly bummed the monthly critical mass ride fell on a Friday night that I feel human and the younger men are all busy....oh well will plan a date night again later.

Oh hey...I do have a date...my new puppy I found while on a bunny hunt ;)

Happy Friday Dinner Peeps (will insert lover boy later when on PC)

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      It has been known for some years that celiacs suffer from migraines at a higher rate than the general populatation. It is an established symptom.

      I suffer so bad with migraines when I eat gluten! Yes diagnosed celiac disease n 2015 and it took me years to discover gluten was behind me having severe migraines.  So yes it happens there has to be others like me!

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.
