Albers is also a popular brand that is quite tasty. Stores tend to carry either Quaker or Albers. Just stay away from the instant=yuck!

Some of you might remember my "hope I don't offend you southerners" post of a week or so ago, about eating grits. Well I learned a lot in that thread, lol. So this morning I made my grits, and fried up two pieces of bacon and two eggs over easy. Broke up the bacon, put it and the eggs in with the grits, "mooshed" (I think that was the word) it all around, salted it... o.m.g... B) Delicious!

It's mornings like this where I don't miss my gluteny cereal. :lol:

Thanks to all of you who suggested it. ;)

OK all you "new southerners" - time to try grillades and grits, a very old Creole dish, is a favorite at fancy-dress balls and other social gatherings of the current Carnival season. Sort of braised round steak with real good seasonings severed with grits.

Grits for a quick lunch or dinner:

1 cup chicken broth to boiling

1/2 cup cream

1 tablespoon butter

Bring back to boil

Toss in quick cook grits.

Serve with anytype of meat: our favorite:

Cook bacon, then saute peppers, onions, mushrooms, toss in shrip.

Plate grits and top with your favorite meat or veggies:)

this morning i made "quick cooking grits" (kroger store brand) as a sub for farina/cream of wheat (comfort food for this jersey girl!) and ate them with sugar and milk - absolutely delish and no (didn't realize it till this morning when i was waiting for that familiar gut feeling) aftermath - another choice for breakfast!! also, i am thinking shrimp and cheez grits one of these nights for dinner :)

Had shrimp and cheese grits last night. They were good. I don't really have a recipe. My dad had made some at the holidays. He used wostershire sauce, minced garlic, either hot sauce or chili sauce, I think bacon grease is involved too. I searched for recipes with these ingredients and several came up. I just mixed up what I had at home and kept tasting it.

I went to Cracker barrel on March 31. When I asked what was gluten free the manager came to our table and handed me a gluten-free "menu". This menu also contains information about Soy, fish, shellfish, treenut, and peanut allergens. This is what it states for Gluten:

"Wheat (Gluetens) Allergen:

The following foods can be recommended for guests who are allergic to wheat.

eggs

BBQ Pulled Pork

Side Items: Apple Sauce, Carrots, Cole Slaw, Corn, Green Beans, Pinto Beans, Turnip Greens

Tossed Salad and House Salad or Country Chef Salad (without Croutons)

All Salad dressings are Wheat (Gluten) free

***All fried items should be avoided due to cross-contamination from the cooking oil***

***All grilled items should be avoided due to cross-contamination from the grill surface***

Biscuits and Dumplins are made from scratch all day in an open kitchen so the potential for cross-contatmination of wheat glutens is very high and we cannot guarantee a meal will be completely gluten free."

I had the pulled pork, applesauce and cole slaw and did just fine.

I don't suppose anyone has a recipe for home-made grits, we don't have them here, but all this talk is making my mouth water!

You'll have to find the coarse-ground corn somewhere. Then you just boil it with water and a pinch of salt like any porridge, stirring occasionally to keep lumps from forming. When it's cooked to your liking, you can melt in cheese, crumble in bacon, add butter or half and half, or serve with ham and some drippings or sausage.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results. Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
