Herbed pot roast and veggies in the crock pot. Smells great. I will make some mashed potatoes to go with.

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

I love crock pot pot roast.  No easier way to do it.  I did a similar theme last night and made pulled pork in the crock pot.  Just add a pork ribeye roast, a cup of your favorite bbq sauce, and cook for 6 hours on low, then shred and enjoy.

We seem to be cooking on a similar theme - I has beef stew in the crockpot! Soooooo yummy and easy. I got home and the dog and cat greeted me and then ran to the crockpot! Poor things..... Had to smell it cooking all afternoon.

Have a sour stomach today, so for dinner I just cooked up some chicken breasts, rice, and green beans.  Hope it sits and my tummy behaves!

Hub grilled some chicken a couple of days ago - so we used it to make a nice salad with a spicy peanut dressing!  Tonight we will use it for nachos.  Tomorrow night, we are making pizza!

Something got me yesterday.  I hardly ate so it was either the baked potato with their "buttery spread and sour cream", the Baked Lay's Potato Chips or the Greek Yogurt.  I glanced at labels but I didn't see anything.  I was flying and when I got into the airport everything but the news stands were closed.  UGGG.

last night was 'oysters bienville'

http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Oysters-Bienville-242928

wierd little combination of ingredients, but turned out yummy :)  also, found a REAL BUTCHER SHOP about 30 minutes away.  (i'm  sure they didn't think they were lost, lolz, but i finded them anyway)  and they have fish on friday and saturday, so got us some flounder and breaded & fried them using the hodgeson mills seasoned coating mix - came out yummy :)  mashed cauliflower and jankaroni and cheese (annie's) the husband didn't make a face at the macaroni, so i guess it was ok  ^_^ 

 

also, got some *real* kielbasa, smoked bratwursts, giant pork chops <wednesday i'm stuffing them)  a LONDON BROIL <ok, good ones are actually hard to find down here, so husband aka /Red Meat Man was very happy with that)  fresh chop meat, etc...  i was a little leery about the sausages, but the nice gentleman told me his son is ncgi and he eats them with no problems.  the hot dogs, he said, not so much  <_<   all their stuff is organic and locally sourced (in oak ridge, tennessee, where the nuclear bomb was invented, so i may end up glowing haha)  oh, and not overpriced compared to chain grocery stores.  

 

so much for trying to clean out the freezer for hunting season.... :o  :lol:

I'm on a bagel kick, so I've tried making a couple of batches of bagels, as well as buying some Udi's for comparison sake. My family likes the homemade better.

 

I just got a new rice cooker that has more features than my old one, so I'm enjoying playing with that.

last night our youngest rolled us a whole mess of sushi :)  spicy crab, smoked salmon <philadelphia type roll) shrimp tempura = yummmz!  she is the sushi chef at her grocery store, so she was all showing off her skills.  they had the nori (seaweed) wrapper, and she used rice spring roll wrappers and fresh spinach for mine.  i have not had sushi in four years and it's one of my favorite things, so it was a super awesome treat!!!   

 

i has a rice cooker - it has one setting, lolz  ;)

Here's a blog post for a homemade gluten free instant noodle soup. It uses miso. http://glutenfreeonashoestring.com/gluten-free-instant-noodle-cups/

 

Our lunch menu today was steamed brussel sprouts, white basmati rice, and vegan crab cakes. For dessert, the kids had fruit and cottage cheese and I had fruit and soy yogurt.

I hardly ever show up here but I had to tell you folks, the sauerbraten came out great! I cut the elk roast into chunks, about 3X3 inches. Seared it in a little sesame oil. Then I put it in my crock pot with a pint of vegetable broth, about a half cup of wine vinegar, a stick of butter, and two of the small packages of Pamela's ginger snaps. I put the cooker on low and cooked it for about three hours. Then I put it in the fridge. The next morning I cooked it on low for about two hours. Then back in the fridge. Two hours that evening, back to the fridge. Two hours the next morning, and I finished it off by cooking it for 5 hours last night. Even so, because I cooked it on low it is medium rare.

 

It wasn't as tender as it would be if I had used beef. Wth beef, it just falls apart into strings like pulled pork. With the elk it stayed in chunks but they were easy to cut and chew. The gravy is thick and rich and tasty. No need to thicken it at all. The ginger snaps did that. I just poured it over some of that Schar bread and ate it up. (I'll probably make some rice for tomorrow.)

 

The roast was about five or six pounds. I put a bunch of it in the freezer but kept out enough to eat for the rest of the week. YUM!

that is a great idea, barty - sauerbraten!  i have some venison roasts in the freezer that i was trying to think of something good to cook when everyone is here for thanksgiving :)  that will feed a big crowd and i can do that completely gluten-free because i serve it with potato pancakes.  yay, so that is ONE meal lolz i just need 3 more - trying to keep the gluten out of the kitchen this year - somebody always messes *something* up, ugh   :mellow:

I just realized I said wine vinegar. I said that because I was thinking about the recipe I got which called for red wine, but since wine really hurts my stomach, I used RICE vinegar. 

 

Now that my diet has expanded and I actually get one day off a week, I might be showing up here more often. I guess with a little guidance even the helpless can learn to cook! :lol:

I totally understand not wanting gluten in the house!

 

It's such a relief to be going back to a gluten free house after my kid's gluten challenge was done. I got glutened multiple times and my stress level skyrocketed. My kids just don't understand the concept of not touching my gluten free food after they've touched gluten.

there's hope for you yet, barty!   :P  and my recipe totally uses red wine, so the red wine vinegar didn't sound odd at all  :D  mine is my mom's recipe and calls for the meat to marinade for, like, 5 days or something.  but i can cook everything the day before (except the pancakes) and just warm it to make the gravy.  w00t!   ;)

ikwym!  i have 5 or 6 (grandkids and neice/nephew) ages 5-12 that i watch after school, and they know they have to "wash their little handzies" but i'm still always watching out.  believe it or not, they are better than some adults ("EMBRACE the CONCEPT!!!")  i taught a fun health class and i gave stickers to a group of kids to explain about germs/hand washing.  the idea was to put a sticker everywhere they touched while playing a game of musical chairs.  when it was over, there were stickers everywhere, (representing germs).   :o   i have thought of explaining the gluten thing to *some* people (cough, cough, my brother in law, who i love dearly, but he is quick quick quick!  i'm like, sean!  stop!  you can't put that!....dah....... don't use that!...... dah...  <_<  he's all like 'why not' while he continues lolz)  my sister needs to make him practice at home hahaha  ^_^

Yes, it's tough with kids. My 2 year old is always trying to grab at my face and mouth and also we're a fairly affectionate family, so there was the issue of kissing sweet little gluteny faces. LOL!

 

So glad to be done with my daughter's gluten challenge!

I got some Betty Crocker pizza dough mix so I'm going to try that tonight.  I've been craving pizza but other than the frozen stuff, I don't have anywhere to get real pizza near me.

Pizza sounds so good. Really good pizza...New York style. Yum...nowhere to get good gluten free pizza around here either. Sigh.

For dinner...Pork Milanese, tossed salad, roasted acorn squash.

The Betty Crocker mix is no where near as sticky as the Glutino stuff I tried before!!  It's still a little sticky but responded better to oiled hands :D.  It's par-baking right now so we will see how it tastes in a while.

 

Ok--it was ok.  Just not like regular pizza crust. It was a bit dry and flaky but it is what it is with gluten-free flours I guess.

I have been slacking off not posting what I make here, I got a bad migraine from my last IVIG that is still not totally over 10 days later.    Lets see, recently I have been testing pies for thanksgiving.  Think I have the pie crust figured out, using the KAF recipe: http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/gluten-free-pie-crust-recipe (with lemon juice and no clearjel), and testing an apple pie right now... it is cooling and I am dying wanting to eat it!  Earlier this week I made lasagna and accidentally bought too many ingredients so I had a lot of leftovers, tired of lasagna now, ha.  Also made beef stew since it is getting colder.  Today we ate at a Mexican restaurant that understand gluten-free, it was so nice and I had no idea they could feed me this whole time.  I had gluten-free chips and salsa!  Dedicated fryers steal my heart.  I will probably make grilled chicken tomorrow and some veggies, to balance off all the fat I will be eating today.

      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

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      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.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By Mari · Posted

      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.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
