I am about to go home and cook some rice, green beans, and cod. My diet has been mostly consisting of rice and fish here lately since it seems to be the only thing my stomach can easily tolerate...

Roasted Chili Fries with Melted Aged Cheddar and Scallions (planks cut into 1/4" wide slices - they were nice and crispy)

Sauteed Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta and Crispy Capers

Tonight we are going to my moms to celebrate my sisters birthday and she is making meatballs (made with rice chex) and mashed potatoes with steamed green beans. I am bringing thin rice noodles, spinach, tomatoes and chicken with a bit of Italian blend cheese. For dessert I am bringing Yoplait Splitz (strawberry sundae and strawberry banana split flavors) and my mom bought a gluten free cake that she found at the grocery store.

Irish, I can tolerate most dairy! YAY!!!!! I cannot drink regular milk but I happily use lactose-free milk (and yogurt). Feta still bothers me, too, but I can do aged cheeses and yes, I did ricotta with only a few tummy rumblings. I do not eat young cheese very much at all. In fact, I try not to eat any sort of cheese more than 2-3 times per week just to be sure. But for now that is alright. :)

Last night we made terriyaki grilled chicken with swiss, arugala, spicy humus and red onion.

Served it with corn on the cob for the family (I am not a fan) and sweet potato french fries.

I was pretty impressed with the Udi's buns.

Chicken and Cheese Enchiladas

Stuff rice tortillas with diced cooked chicken, grated cheese and fresh chopped spinach

Sauce - a mixture of Cream and lots of Garlic, tsp salt and ground black pepper

Top with cheese and green onions.

Bake covered for 15 and uncovered for another 10 or until cheese is bubbly and starting to brown.

Of course these aren't good for those with dairy concerns and I can't have tortillas...so I make a separate very small casarole at the same time by just layering the other stuff.

IF you don't have a problem with nightshades...add a small can of jalepeno peppers to make the sauce even better.

If you have no problem with corn...you can use corn tortillas.

so simple and very yummy :)

Steak and cheesy broccoli rice. I have missed cheesy broccoli rice, we used to eat it about once a week and we haven't had it in almost a year now.

squirmingitch Veteran

Breast of chicken marinated in Italian dressing (homemade) & then baked.

Potatoes baked & then cut in half, studded with butter & a nice sharp cheddar cheese & then baked again until browned & crispy.

I can't have the butter or cheese so mine was treated with a little coconut oil & lightly sprinkled with grated parmesan cheese as the very hard cheeses are okay for me.

Salad made of baby spring greens and romaine lettuce with leeks, yellow squash, zuchinni, garlic & campari tomatoes. Olive oil & wine vinegar dressing.

Hmmm! May not be very tasty :blink: although the cheese might help. I imagine you could come up with some pretty creative menus if you let auto-correct write them :o

I've got a bad cold so took it very easy today. I made Chicken a la King with steamed peas. Strawberries with balsamic vinegar for dessert.

      It has been the most terrible illness ever! Going on 3 weeks now… I had chicken pox as a kid… crazy how much havoc this dormant virus has caused after being reactivated! No idea what even caused it to fire back up. I’m scared this pain and sensitivity is just never going to improve or go away

      OKJmartes. Skin and eyes. Also anxiety and frustration. I have read that Celiacs have more skin problems than people who do not have Celiacs. I take increased levels of Vit. D3, very high levels of B12 and an eating part of an avocado every day. KnittyKitty and others here can add what they take for skin health. A Dermatologist might identify the type of skin condition. By eyes you may mean eyesight problems not just irritated, red eyes. It is not very difficult to get a diagnosis of which eye condition is affecting your vision but much more difficult to find an effective remedy. The ophthalmologists I have seen have been only a little helpful. There seems to have been some advances in eye treatments that most of them are completely ignorant of or just won't add to their treatment plans.  Forcertain you may as well buy some remedy from a facebook ad but that is obviously risky and may actually damafe your eyes. However it is known that certain supplements , taken at the effectivelevels do help with eyesight. Two of them are Luten and zanthamin (spelling?)and certain anti-oxidants such as bilberry..    Hope this helps.

      I refused to do the gluten challenge for a long time because I knew how sick I would be: I have always had and still have positive antibodies and have so many symptoms my  GI was 💯 sure I would have a positive biopsy. I didn’t want to make myself sick to get a negative biopsy and be more confused by all this.  He couldn’t guarantee me a negative biopsy meant no celiac bc there may not be damage yet or it’s possible to miss biopsies where there’s damage but he was so sure and convinced me I needed that biopsy I went back on gluten. It was a terrible experience! I took pictures of the bloating and swelling and weight gain during the challenge. I gained 9 pounds, looked pregnant, was in pain , couldn’t work or function without long naps and the brain fog was debilitating. And in the end he didn’t get a positive biopsy… so I wish I had never wasted my time or health going through it. I haven’t been truly straightened  out since and I am currently battling a shingles infection at 43 and I can’t help but wonder if the stress I put my body under to try and get an official diagnosis has caused all this. Best of luck to you - whatever you decide. It’s not a fun thing to go through and I still don’t have the answers I was looking for

      It's completely understandable to struggle with the gluten challenge, especially when it impacts your health and studies so significantly. Your experience of feeling dramatically better without gluten is a powerful clue, whether it points to celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. It's very wise of you and your doctor to pause the challenge until your holidays, prioritizing your immediate well-being and exams. To answer your questions, yes, it is possible for blood tests to be negative initially and become positive later as the disease progresses, which is why the biopsy remains the gold standard. Many, many people find the gluten challenge incredibly difficult due to the return of debilitating symptoms, so you are certainly not alone in that struggle. Wishing you the best for your exams and for obtaining clearer answers when you're able to proceed.
    • Scott Adams
      It's smart that you're seeing the gastroenterologist tomorrow. While it's possible this is a severe and persistent inflammatory reaction to gluten, the fact that the pain is movement-dependent and localized with tenderness is important for your specialist to hear. It could indeed be significant inflammation, but it's also worth ruling out other overlapping issues that can affect those with celiac disease. Is it possible you got some gluten in your diet somehow? This could be a possible trigger. Hopefully, tomorrow's appointment will provide clearer answers and a path to relief so you can get back to your lectures and enjoy your weekend. Wishing you all the best for the consultation.
