Fun!

Gluten free Bisquick! Gotta have my waffles and pancakes.

If I to chose something in a package it would probably be Better Batter flour. There are very few things we eat packaged right now and with all our other restrictions it was really nice to just be able to make a normal loaf of bread.

For my daughters I think it would be peanut butter and jelly larabars.

Snickers. Ha!

It's so hard to name just one! I'll have to name a few!

Udi's Bread

Udi's chocolate chip cookies

Pamela's Baking Mix

Betty Crocker gluten-free Brownies (better than regular!)

Cool! What are the rules? Can this include intrinsically gluten-free stuff or is it pre-made gluten-free products? All the gluten-free products that come to mind are those that are already gluten-free like duck, truffles, shark, langoustines, lamb, vanilla beans, fresh herbs, lemons, pink peppercorns...

But if it is pre-made gluten-free snack stuff I would choose falafel chips with homemade hummus. I have yet to find many processed gluten-free products I like but I do like those! Cannot recall the brand and am too lazy to get up to check. And Lara bars sound fabulous! As soon as I see some somewhere I'll snatch 'em up.

Larabars without a doubt

Lara bars sound good..Wish I could have them are there any nut free ones?

For everday, I love and rely on my banana flavor protein powder from Bioplex Nutrition.

For once in awhile treats, Pamela's Gluten Free Brownie Mix. So YUMMY!

GlutenFreeManna Rising Star

Chebe and King Arthur gluten-free flour. I use both to make pizza crusts most of the time, even though I can no longer have cheese on my pizzas, these crusts are good enough to stand on their own. Sometimes I just use them to make garlicy breadsticks and dip in pizza sauce. :)

For commercial products, Kettle Brand Sea Salt and Pepper Potato Chips. 2nd place would be Dark Chocolate Nuggets with Almonds by Hershey's.

From nature, a perfectly ripened non-fibrous mango, sliced and eaten plain.

(There are different varieties of mangoes, just like there are different varities of any fruit of veg.)

Tonight I had a perfect mango. It was better than any gluten-free commercial product you could ever hope for.

You can't go wrong with Larabars! The cherry pie bar is amazing!

We also can't live without Udi's bread, Pirate's Booty, and Target Brand fruit strips. DD is now devouring grape tomatoes and string cheese. Namaste pizza crust mix is great.

"product" = packaged

Ancient Harvest Quinoa pasta (corn alert)

Marianated artichoke hearts

Roasted red peppers (yes, I buy them in a jar)

Chia Goodness "cereal" is weirdly delicious

Nutella (I'm going to make my own with coconut milk, as soon as I remember to buy hazelnuts)

food = ingredient

blueberries (I've eaten so many in the last two weeks I'm in danger of turning blue)

kale/collards

fresh herbs

apples

lentils (I opened a jar of them I hadn't opened for a while yesterday and just thought...yum! at the lovely lentil smell wafting out)

buckwheat in all shapes and forms

OLIVES

and cumin and ginger and garlic and ras el hanout and garam masala and cinnamon and cardamom and cloves and... and...

I never get bored of food. what do you like?

Me, neither. I scratch cook/bake daily because I love it so darned much! As I also teach cooking/baking classes I stay on top of culinary trends. My pantry is huge and full of all kinds of cool ingredients from our travels.

I, too, love ras el hanout et. al. My spice collection is exotic - I have almost 90. I try to purchase whole, dry roast them and grind them either in my spice grinder or M&P. Making my own spice and salt blends, rubs, BBQ sauces, sambals, ketchups, mustards, salsas, preserves, pestos and tons of sauces is my idea of fun. :P I would never, ever tire of food talk. Other than family, travel and food are my obsessions. Oh, and good books and gardening.

modiddly16 Enthusiast

No rules! I'm just so bored with my daily food routines, I figure if there are any new products out there or ideas that I'm not aware of, here would be the place to find it!

I love gluten-free Bisquick too!! I can't eat Udi's, it makes me sick oddly enough, no other gluten-free product does that.

I've actually trimmed mine down, as I just don't go through them fast enough and things so stale when I cook primarily for one. 90! I wish. I've been thinking I need to do more herb salts. Any suggestions? My community garden has a beautiful herb section, and I'd love to preserve more of them but have limited freezer space for my typical olive oil-herb ice cubes when it's also being stuffed full of greens and blueberries to last the winter (well, as much as will fit).

To OP: If you do the rigamarole of finding the link to my blog via my profile, there is a section on my blog called the "to-cook list." That has links to a bunch of things I'd like to make, but haven't gotten around to yet. Might be a little inspiration. (If you can't find it, PM and I'll try to make the link formatting transfer.)

My favourite herb salts to make are orange, lemon and lime with rosemary; lemon zest, pepper and oregano; sage and lemon.

You likely do this but I love to make compound herb butters to freeze. I really like garlic, chive and lemon; chili lime; sage and lemon and so on.

And to use some basil (aside from pesto) I make blueberry basil vineger and basil jelly. Not to mention apricot chile jelly, mint, lavender, etc. Sometimes I get a bit ridiculous - I currently have 27 vinegars in the pantry (most homemade). I'm a hoarder. There. I admitted it!

The chocolate flavored Chex cereal is pretty insane.

I can't find nut free one's here so if you do let me know too!!

modiddly16 Enthusiast

I haven't tried the chocolate chex yet!

Bearkat used to make this mexican rice bowl that I had for lunch like everyday. I don't think they make it anymore but I loved it!

Lara Bars all have nuts as far as I can tell, but Enjoy Life makes some good bars that are free of the top 8 allergens (including gluten, dairy, soy, eggs, all nuts, etc).

anna34 Enthusiast

kinnikinnik tapioca english muffins (taste like a "real" english muffin - mmmmmm....toasted with butter for a real treat)

I'd love to try the Bisquick. It's made in Canada, but not sold here. :blink:

My honest to goodness FAVORITE gluten free product is anything by Against the Grain.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks!

      @JudyLou,  I have dermatitis herpetiformis, too!  And...big drum roll... Niacin improves dermatitis herpetiformis!   Niacin is very important to skin health and intestinal health.   You're correct.  dermatitis herpetiformis usually occurs on extensor muscles, but dermatitis herpetiformis is also pressure sensitive, so blisters can form where clothing puts pressure on the skin. Elastic waist bands, bulky seams on clothing, watch bands, hats.  Rolled up sleeves or my purse hanging on my arm would make me break out on the insides of my elbows.  I have had a blister on my finger where my pen rested as I write.  Foods high in Iodine can cause an outbreak and exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. You've been on the gluten free diet for a long time.  Our gluten free diet can be low in vitamins and minerals, especially if processed gluten free foods are consumed.  Those aren't fortified with vitamins like gluten containing products are.  Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, medicine, or vitamins? Niacin deficiency is connected to anemia.  Anemia can cause false negatives on tTg IgA tests.  A person can be on that borderline where symptoms wax and wane for years, surviving, but not thriving.  We have a higher metabolic need for more nutrients when we're sick or emotionally stressed which can deplete the small amount of vitamins we can store in our bodies and symptoms reappear.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards. The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.    Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.   However, another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.   I recommend getting checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  More than just Vitamin D and B12.  A gluten challenge would definitely be a stressor capable of precipitating further vitamin deficiencies and health consequences.   Best wishes!

      And I agree with Wheatwacked. When a physician tells you that you can't have celiac disease because you're not losing weight, you can be certain that doctor is operating on a dated understanding of celiac disease. I assume you are in the UK by the way you spelled "coeliac". So, I'm not sure what your options are when it comes to healthcare, but I might suggest you look for another physician who is more up to date in this area and is willing to work with you to get an accurate diagnosis. If, in fact, you do not have celiac disease but you know that gluten causes you problems, you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). There is no test available yet for NCGS. Celiac must first be ruled out. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel. NCGS we is not autoimmune and we know less about it's true nature. But we do know it is considerably more common than celiac disease.
