Here is a good snack idea that my children enjoy, one has Celiac and one doesn't. I got the recipe from www.clanthompson.com in their cooking section. Hope it helps :)

Fruity Pebble Muffins

Ingredients

2/3 cup of sugar

3 TB. shortening or butter

3 eggs

1 cup of rice flour

1/4 cup corn meal

1/4 cup soy flour (or bean flour)

3/4 tsp. salt

3 tsp. baking powder

3/4 cup milk or water

1 1/2 cups gluten free fruity pebbles type cereal (adjust amount to taste)

Mix sugar and softened butter. Beat in eggs. Mix flours, salt, baking powder together and add to egg mixture alternately with milk. Add fruity pebbles cereal. Put a small pat of butter on the bottom of each muffin tin. Pour batter into tins and sprinkle with a little extra sugar and butter if you like. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

Hi, I am 17 and do a lot of cooking and baking! My parents both work so they don't have much time but I really enjoy cooking and baking!

Cookies:

I make cookies almost every week with Gluten Free Pantry's Old Fashioned Cake and Cookie Mix. I either add chocolate chips or coconut to the mix (my fav is coconut!)

Try ordering gluten-free cookies online or get them at a health food store. I have tried many and try new ones all the time! Some are okay, some horrible, and some great! It's really up to you to find ones that you like! That goes for all gluten-free food, including recipes and baking mixes.

Other Snacks:

Fruit

Vegetables and dip

Yogurt

gluten-free crackers with cheese

salsa and chips

chili

rice krispy treats made with gluten-free puffed rice cereal

rice cakes

pizza made with chebe pizza crust

garlic sticks made with chebe mix (www.chebe.com- i use the original mix and add my own spices)

thai kitchen instant noodle soup

and for the good stuff:

Ice cream

French Fries (make your own or McDonalds are fine)

Chips (Frito-Lay has a gluten-free list and I follow it even though some people have issues with cross-contamination)

thats all I can think of but there are many, many more! Just use your imagination! :P

Yea,

the genisoy bars are really good, also break bars from glutano are really good if you like chocolate they are basically a gluten-free KitKat. :D Blue Doritos are gluten-free and those are really good go to Open Original Shared Link and they have a gluten-free list of all their chips and dips. I have a lot of fruit also because I really like fruit and it is really good for you.

My mom makes some really good peanut butter cookies that don't have any flour in them. You need:

one egg

one cup of sugar

one cup of peanut butter

You put them on the cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. If you like hershey kisses put one in the middle of each cookie after baking them and you will have your self some really good peanut butter cookies.

Personally I think these cookies are better than the peanut butter cookies with flour!

Who likes pancakes? Well, almost every weekend my dad makes me some pancakes made from corn bread mix. We use Betty Crockers' Golden Corn Muffin and Bread Mix. You just fallow the directions like you are making corn muffins but just add a little more milk than what it says too ( so that it is kinda soupy/ runny). Then you just make them like regular pancakes. ( FYI there is some flour in it just so you know I can say that they don't bother me and hopefully not you!)

Hope you like these!

I'm new, don't know much, been living on:

Rice Cakes -- very goood, I'm trying not to eat too many and get tired of them

Canned Fruit (mandarin oranges, peaches, etc.)

Obviously, fresh fruit

Sorry, I don't have much experience yet

In response to "JoeMoe"

"some" flour is extremely harmful to a celiac and I hope that you were not mislead by this! If you have celiac you absolutely cannot eat even a TRACE of gluten! Not to scare anyone, but even the slightest bit of gluten will damage your intestines, and over time lead to complications such as anemia, osteoporosis, and even cancer!

If you want good pancakes, try pamela's pancake mix:

I think it is even better than regular pancakes!

You are sure right about the flourless peanut butter cookies, they are really easy to make and good too! I like to add whole peanuts to them sometimes or some gluten-free cereal like Bakery on Main granola.

I don't know if this is the same corn bread mix you are talking about, but this one has wheat flour in it, so it is not gluten-free. I don't think I have found any mainstream cornbread mixes without wheat flour in them. Specialty gluten-free cornbread mixes are ok tho.

I've just discovered (and fallen in love with) Amy's gluten free burritos. They look weird like they have holes in them but I spread a little sour cream and some salsa on them.. So good!

DelilahStark Newbie

Scharr brand table crackers are delicious!!!! They taste like saltines and club crackers had a baby. I am super picky about what I eat and these rock pretty hard.

miss-molly Newbie

Smartfood popcorn is gluten free. So is Pirate's Booty. Yogurt is good too. Yoplait yogurts say clearly under the ingredients whether the flavor is gluten free. Careful with the Doritos mentioned early. Not all flavors are gluten free. You can check them out here: Open Original Shared Link

Good luck!

If you haven't tried those cookies yet I highly recommend them! I also flatten them with sugar on the bottom of the cup and then smooth out the kiss on top after it has been on for a minute...mmm....I am actually eating them now :)

Betty crocker makes EXCELLENT gluten-free cake and brownie mix. I'm not a fan of their cookies, but some people are.

Some times I make a trail mix with peanuts, m&m's and popcorn.

Chocolate covered fruit always hits the spot.

Quick pancake mix....I use Betty Crocker gluten-free mix. It's fantastic!

BakingQueen Newbie

I use allerenergy bars, enjoy life trail mix (they also have bars and granola), and salted nuts.

taquitos

ZonePerfect bars - check the labels, because not all of them are gluten-free.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      That's great news, you can do this.  Let us know how things go and don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions. Cristiana 😊
