Need Help For A Picky Eater

Can anyone suggest good brands of gluten-free bread, pasta, and/or frozen waffles? I am ridiculously picky - always have been - and haven't been able to find any that I like at all. Plenty of other things I can eat, but it would sure be nice to find some bread-type products to have.

Thanks!

Hi zoogirl.

We like Udi's bread and baked goods, Tinkyada pasta and Van's waffles (they also make regular waffles so make sure to read the package). I have had good luck with gluten-free Bisquick for pancakes, garlic cheese biscuits and peach cobbler.

I second Udi's plus Grainless Baker for premade. Gluten Free Pantry makes a French Bread Mix that is really good for pizza crusts but I usually use Kinnickinnick premade pizza crusts as they come 4 to a package for about $9. For crackers I like Glutino and the Snyders new gluten-free pretzels are good and a little less pricey than some of the other brands.

I love Udi's bread. The cinnamon and raisin bread is really good for french toast. I am on a long break from pasta since I was just glutened by some so called gluten free. I bought a 10 dollar waffle maker at Target and make my own waffles out of the gluten free bisquick. They are really good.

Thanks for all the suggestions! :) I have some Udi's bread in my freezer that I've been afraid to try after my last few purchases and I finally found gluten-free Bisquick at the grocery store just now. So, I'm excited to try out some of their recipes. Yea! I miss my Eggo waffles in the worst way - a couple of those with some peanut butter was my go to breakfast. I'll have to give the Bisquick version a try.

Hmmm... tried the gluten-free Bisquick pizza crust tonight. :( Not too crazy about it. Everything just seems to have this same funky aftertaste to it that I can't get past. I'm going to try your idea of cutting it in half for a thinner crust though. It was really thick - maybe that will help.

I made a pizza once using gluten-free Bisquick...and didn't like it at all. The sauce soaked into the crust. I didn't notice an aftertaste but the crust tasted more like a biscuit, not a pizza crust. That may be due to the fact that it lacked yeast. On the other hand, I think the pancakes were really good.

If you have Gluten Free Pantry mixes where you are try their French Bread mix, the pizza crust recipe is on the box. I like thick crusts so I use one box for one crust although they do say to split the 'dough' onto two pans. It took a bit for me to get used to having to use a spatula to spread the dough, I oil the spatula to get it to spread easier.

I haven't tried Bisquick for pizza crust but the first time I made bisquits all I could taste was egg. Someone here suggested just using the egg whites instead of the whole egg and that worked much better.

We eat the Bisquick pizza crust once a week and it's delicious! Try this, add twice as much italian seasoning and 1 cup of grated parm cheese (Kraft in the shaker) It makes a huge difference.

I'll definitely try that! It wan't horrible, but just not quite right. Maybe these tweaks will make it just right. Thanks!

I'll look for that mix. I think I've seen it at one of our stores around here. Thanks!

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
