Due to circumstances beyond my control (a neighbor stopped by and lingered forever), we had to have a microwave meal tonight.

It was nachos made with thick corn chips and leftovers from superbowl Sunday (gluten-free chili, pulled pork), grated cheddar and asiago cheese and some salsa with sour cream. We loved them!

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 made rice risotto with coconut milk, peas, scallion, spinach and cheese (not for me), sauted chicken breast (just salt, dry red pepper and olive oil) and fruit cocktail.

I'm not the OP, but I think this might be the recipe referred to...

I haven't tried it yet, and I haven't tried Chebe's for strombolli (on their website) but it looks good!

And lol, we had nachos for dinner again tonight. Tonight we lingered at the neighbor's and DP requested them. Poor dear neighbor was the victim of a smash and grab. (Never leave your purse in your car!) The thief somehow managed to access her savings account and wiped it out, she'll get it back but has to jump through some hoops and wait awhile. Then she got laid off her job less than a week later, and her house was broken into a couple of months ago. She doesn't have celiac, but I think we all know that feeling when everythin starts tumbling down.

She's single and just scraping by.

Good news tonight, she's starting a better job tomorrow. I learned about the opening at my sister's pre-Superbowl Party. Somebody announced they were retiring and I asked if they had anyone to replace them...hooked up my neighbor and my sister's guest. My dear neighbor looks happy for the first time in quite awhile, and she's going to make a better salary! Remember that feeling, I do: hope. I remember when that came back.

yes, marilyn, that is the recipe :) sorry, y'all, i haven't been on here for a few days. do try the dough! it keeps in the fridge for at least 3 days (i had some leftover) and it also makes dee licious pizza crust. i might put a little less sugar next time if i'm making it for pizza dough. i rolled it out and shaped it into a circle, (spray the pan w/olive oil) and i egg washed the top, baked it till it was getting a little brown on the edges, then flipped it over and put my toppings on. NOT soggy, NOT mealy, crust stayed crispy and even reheated really nicely for quick lunch. i am from NJ and pizza is it's own food group up there (cut my teeth on pizza crust lolz) so i am supremely *stoked* :D

May I ask for clarification? :)

the link to the crescent rolls says:

1 c. gluten-free flour mix ( rice,potato starch,tapicoa )

what's the ratio? 1/2, 1/4, 1/4?

thanks a bunch!

i used brown rice flour, cornstarch, tapioca and potato starch. exact measurements? i am a little free and loose with my flour blends. i got a measuring cup and put flour in until it equals 1 cup. mostly rice (probably 1/3 cup) then cornstarch (1/4?) then more tapioca flour and a little bit of potato starch <like a few tablespoons. sorry - i loosely interpreted that as "flour blend" whatever kind you like to use for baking. o, and definitely you will need a mixer to blend the cottage chz with the butter really well. but after that i just folded in the dry ingredients with a spatulator and as soon as it formed a ball, i wrapped it and refrigerated it.

Last night was chicken soup over white rice noodles and tonight may end up being a beef soup if my daughter's throat doesn't stop hurting so bad.

Most flour blends ---even the ones I make up myself--are 1 part flour to 1/2 starches, so that's why I asked. Okay, this works!

Thanks! :)

I just whipped up that crescent roll recipe. I went back to betterbatter website and you can use sour cream, cream cheese, ricotta or cottage cheese. I had sour cream on hand and the dough tastes amazing. That is a really good sign!!!! I am excited to bake this up and will let you know how the sour cream worked.

Gosh, you had energy for that ---after that LONG, busy day at work you had? wow! :lol: :lol: :lol:

(should we tell them we "talked" almost all day long on email and that neither us got squat done?? :lol: )

I saw that you could sub cream cheese or ricotta, too--and I prefer those to cottage cheese (just a texture thing) and so, please DO let us know.

What else ya having??? :)

I was so BUSY all day :) so we had a quickie.

No, not that :lol: ...quick 4- cheese white pizza with garlic and broccoli. Good old CHEBE dough. (THANK YOU, MARILYN AND KAREN!!)

Oh Irish, you ratted me out. I got a lot done in the morning! Then you had to talk me off the "stupid things that doctors say ledge". Thank you for that.

Hope you got that walk in between our blabbering!

We are having steaks, potatoes, crescent rolls and roasted asparagus. Your dinner sounds good!

Yeah, I find that sour cream adds flavor to gluten-free flours. I am all about flavor. And telling my life story on email to you apparently!

I loved every second of it. ;) Yes, walk accomplished.

I agree! SOUR CREAM is the "secret ingredient" in the amazing hamburger rolls my friend bakes---the one who owns the gluten-free bakery?

They are so light and delicious and she says that is why!!

:lol: what's a hamburger roll? or the recipe? IT is the sour cream!

I have no idea what the ratio of flours, starches, x-gum is etc. is--as she is in a competitive business here and probably wants to keep it secret :) ...but I can buy one of the flour mixes she puts together and ship it to you if you want! I send them to my Mom and she makes her rolls up and freezes them. They freeze well. I have several in my freezer! You add the wet ingredients (sour cream, egg, milk)Let me know.

Oh like a hamburger bun! I don't know what I was thinking. I didn't get much sleep last night.

      Awaiting Biopsy results

      I have had my endoscopy this morning with biopsies. My consultant said that it looked like I did have coeliac disease from what he could see. I now have to wait 3 weeks for the biopsy results. Do I continue eating gluten till my follow appointment in three weeks.

      Stomach hurts with movement

      Hi @emzie and welcome to the forum. Perhaps could be residual inflammation and bloating that is causing sensitivity in that area. I was diagnosed with coeliac disease in 2013 and I remember some years ago my sister telling me around that time that she had a lady in her church, also a coeliac, who had real pain when she turned her torso in a certain...

      Hi! One of the usual symptoms I have with a gluten flare up has deviated a bit and I thought I'd search for advice/opinions here. Also to see if anyone goes through similar stuff. Monday all of a sudden I got really bad pain in my stomach (centre, right under the chest, where the duodenum would be located). I ended up having to throw up for 2 hours, my body...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Hi. So sorry to hear about your shingles. There is a lidocaine cream that you can get at Walmart that will help numb the pain. That's what I used for mine. It can't be put near your eyes or in your ears. I hope your doctor gave you valacyclovir which is an antiviral. It does lessen the symptoms. If it is in your eyes, see an ophthalmologist. They have...

      Hi @emzie and welcome to the forum. Perhaps could be residual inflammation and bloating that is causing sensitivity in that area.  I was diagnosed with coeliac disease in 2013 and I remember some years ago my sister telling me around that time that she had a lady in her church, also a coeliac, who  had real pain when she turned her torso in a certain direction whilst doing exercises, but otherwise was responding well to the gluten-free diet. As far as I know is still the picture of health. I often end up with pain in various parts of my gut if I eat too much rich food or certain types of fibre (for some reasons walnuts make my gut hurt, and rice cakes!) and and as a rule, the pain usually hangs around for a number of days, maybe up to a week.   When I bend over or turn, I can feel it.  I think this is actually due to my other diagnosis of IBS, for years I thought I had a rumbling appendix but I think it must have just been IBS.  Reading the experiences of other sufferers, it seems quite typical.  Sensitized gut, build up of gas - it stands to reason that the extra pressure of turning can increase the pain. When I am glutened I get a burning, gnawing pain in my stomach on and off for some days - it isn't constant, but it can take up a few hours of the day.  I believe this to be gastritis, but it seems to hurt irrespective of movement.   Anyway, you are doing the right thing to seek a professional opinion, though, so do let us know how you get on.   Meanwhile, might I suggest you drink peppermint tea, or try slices of fresh ginger in hot water? A lot of IBS sufferers say the former is very helpful in relieving cramps, etc, and the latter is very soothing on the stomach. Cristiana

      Hi! One of the usual symptoms I have with a gluten flare up has deviated a bit and I thought I'd search for advice/opinions here. Also to see if anyone goes through similar stuff. Monday all of a sudden I got really bad pain in my stomach (centre, right under the chest, where the duodenum would be located). I ended up having to throw up for 2 hours, my body was trying to get rid of something from all sides and it was just horrible. Since then I havent been nauseous anymore at all, but the pain has stayed and it always worsens the moment i start moving. The more I move the more it hurts, and when i rest longer it seems to dissapear (no movement). I've had this before, but years ago I think around when I first got diagnosed with coeliac, where each time I moved, my stomach would hurt, to the point where I went to the ER because doctors got freaked out. That only lasted 1 night though, and Now it's already wednesday, so 3 days since then, but the pain persists and remains leveled. it doesn't get crazy intense, but it's still uncomfortable to the point I cant really go out because Im afraid itll turn into a giant flare up again. I couldn't think of where I could possibly have been glutened at this bad of a level and why it hasn't passed yet. I went to the GP, and as long as I have no fever and the pain isnt insane then its fine which I havent had yet. Tomorrow im also seeing a gastroenterologist specialized in IBS and coeliac for the first time finally in years, but I thought I'd ask on here anyway because it still hasnt dissapeared. It also hurts when someone presses on it. Maybe it's just really inflamed/irritated. I'm just frustrated because I'm missing out on my uni lectures and I do a sports bachelor, so I can't get behind on stuff & next to that i'm also going to go to the beach with my boyfriend's family this weekend: (

It can't be put near your eyes or in your ears. I hope your doctor gave you valacyclovir which is an antiviral.  It does lessen the symptoms. If it is in your eyes,  see an ophthalmologist.  They have an antiviral eye drop that can be prescribed.  Shingles in the eye could cause blindness.  I was unsure whether you have celiac or not.  If you do,  follow the diet.  I believe that extra stress on your body does affect everything. Shingles can recur. If you start getting the warning signs of nerves tingling,  see the dr and start taking the valacyclovir to prevent a breakout. If I sound technical,  I am a retired pharmacist.

      celiac disease and braces

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You are right to be proactive, as research does indicate that individuals with celiac disease can have a higher predisposition to enamel defects, cavities, and periodontal issues, even with excellent oral hygiene. While many people with celiac successfully undergo orthodontic treatment without complication, your caution is valid. It may be beneficial to seek a consultation with an orthodontist who is familiar with managing patients with autoimmune conditions or who is willing to collaborate with your daughter's gastroenterologist or a periodontist. They can perform a thorough assessment of her current oral health, discuss your specific concerns about recession and decay, and create a tailored hygiene plan. This second opinion could provide a clearer risk-benefit analysis, helping you decide if addressing the cosmetic concern of the lower teeth is worth the potential risks for your daughter, especially if they are not currently affecting function or her confidence.
