Omg, I Am In Bread Heaven!

Move over Udi's, I've just made my first batch of Chebe. I made the regular rolls, the little round ones. omg... {faint} -- they're crusty and chewy and soft in the middle, just what I've missed in bread. I had to keep myself from eating them all at once because I want to save some for lunch. I'm going to put some butter and cheese on them, one of my favorite things. Yeah, not overly healthy. But I don't care! lol..

And, I'm thinking that this will make a good communion bread. I tried dunking it in my coffee and it did NOT fall apart!

It's the little things that make it easier to cope with all that celiac entails. I've been feeling sorry for myself lately and this has cheered me up. (this, plus all the yummy grits recipes you all provided! :) ) B)

Chebe is so heavenly! I made the cheesy little rolls for Thanksgiving dinner and they got wiped out in no time! Their pizza crust is amazing too. I bake it in a 12 inch cast iron skillet and it's perfect!

Rachel, I had to order it on Amazon since there was no where near me that sold it. And, by ordering it like that I had to order a case -- eight packs of mix, I think. I hated to order that many without ever tasting it ahead of time, but based on all the rave reviews I decided I'd try it. SO glad I did. :)

I haven't tried Chebe, but I had the WORLDS BEST GRILLED HAM AND CHEESE SANWICH for supper tonight. I found Rudi's gluten-free bread. (I have loved Udi's but OMG-Rudi!!) I toasted a piece the other day and it was reallly good. Then, I tried to make a sandwich and I was disappointed. But tonight, I got home late, had to grocery shop and was starving. I pulled out the ham and cheese I just bought and decided to try a grilled sandwich. It was OUT of this WORLD! Soft, perfect for grilled cheese!! HMMMM...I'm drooling even now! :lol:

Chebe is my favorite gluten-free food BY FAR. My husband and I go through so many packages a month we buy it in bulk now. I took it for Thanksgiving and Christmas with my family and they like it too. I would have loved it before I went gluten-free, I think.

My favorite way to eat it is with tacos. Just split it open and put a little bit of taco meat in there. Yummmm so good. I am going to try making it as hamburger buns soon.

Here is a link to another topic to a recipe that you can make these from scratch. I buy Ener G brand tapioca starch in a case of 12 now because my family has me make these so much.

The Chebe bread stick mix is great! I made it for Xmas dinner and the gluten eaters gobbled them up. We used shredded Asiago instead of grated parm. Halfway thru the baking, we brushed them with olive oil and sprinkled garlic salt & garlic powder. They would be good with pizza sauce to dip.

Also, fun for kids to make. You roll them in your hands like a play dough snake. Paint on the olive oil & sprinkle.

No, That's the cost for a case, eight packs. It's slightly cheaper on Amazon. :)

Isn't it great? I recently figured out how to duplicate the pizza crust mix using tapioca flour. I use a food scale, put about a teaspoon of dried oregano, half a teaspoon of garlic powder, half a teaspoon of onion powder, and a teaspoon of kosher salt in the bowl on the scale. Then I add tapioca flour until it weighs the weight on the Chebe bag (I think it's 7 oz?). Then I add the other ingredients (eggs, parm, oil, almond milk) and make it like the package. I save so much money doing this because I can get a 1 lb bag of tapioca flour at the international foods store for under $2. Chebe was costing me $6-7 per 7 oz bag. I haven't tried to make their bread and other products like this, but it works for the pizza crust for sure. Tastes just like the Chebe pizza crust mix. Yum!

That's a good tip, I'll remember that. I bought my Chebe online so it comes out to about $2.50 per package which isn't bad. I have yet to venture into any of the Asian or other international markets we have around here, but I really need to do that! :)

$2.50 is a really good price! I may have to check out that site that starts with A for other things. I bought my first couple bags of Chebe from my local Allergy friendly store. I really do want to keep supporting them, but the mark-up is so high it kills me to buy everything there. I will keep making my tapioca pizza crust from scratch however because I can't tell the difference between it and Chebe.

      Are Gluten-Free Processed Foods Making You Sick? (+Video)

      Thank you! It’s very easy to make seedy crackers. They are much more nutritious than commercial gluten free bread,

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve. thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poo...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies. Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree. Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant. That may happen even with endoscopy. Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end...

      here are the lab ranges. Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      Just diagnosed today

      By JoJo0611 · Posted

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
