You got me craving grilled cheese! I can't have any dairy, so here's what I did instead: Took two slices of Rudi's bread and spread them with roasted red pepper hummus and the outsides with coconut oil. Drizzled a little olive oil in the pan and fried it up just like a grilled cheese. The bread stuck to the pan a little but was nicely fried and crispy just like a grilled cheese made with butter. The hummus is the closest I have found texture wise to melted cheese (I can't stand the fake cheese subs). The only thing I will change next time is I may add a slice of smoked turkey or something so it is more like a panini. But yum!

Sounds wonderful :) ,, makes me wish legumes agreed with me

I still can't do black beans but hummus, cooked chick peas and lentils never bothered me. I'm also back to being able to have pinto beans as refried beans in small amounts but I can't overdo it. I would gladly give up the few beans I can eat to go back to eating cheese. I guess we always want what we can't have. I just tell myself it could be worse and I could have neither option. Got to make the best of it.

I'm going to be boring and have a couple of scrambled eggs with a piece or two of cardboard....oops I mean gluten free bread, toasted. I'll probably follow that with some fruit :)

Lacklustre! A thick chunk of homemade banana bread with flax and pecans and a piece of provolone cheese.

A piece of coffeecake, peanuts, coffee, ice-water. Will eat a piece of cheese later in the morning for my protein.

Coffeecake was very dry, but still good. Hum, maybe add 1/2 cup of pumpkin next time for moisture.

Two pieces of banana bread that I made yesterday and coffee. Am sure I'll have a more substantial breakfast later as this will never hold me until lunch.

A burger on a Udi's bun. :ph34r: Bad I know, but I did eat it around 10 AM and didn't have any lunch so I consider it more like brunch. Now I'm making some sweet potato fries for a 3 PM linner or should I call it dunch? :lol:

I've never had my grits sweet. One of these days I will have to try it. Ever since I had to give up dairy, grits are just not the same without lots of butter and cheese. I usually just put salt and pepper on them now.

Hi!

I never ate my grits salty. My grandmother was cooking it for us all the time. Her versions were: Spread grits on plate and sprinkle with:

- cinnamon, sugar and "melted" butter (butter must be golden brown, not just melted)

- "melted" butter, and Nesquick, or something like Ovaltine, or cocoa powder and sugar

It was delicious. I miss it. I tried to make it with Earth Balance, but It wasn't the same as with butter.

My grandma made us Farina and polenta the same way. Yummy..

And today I had two slices of Udi's bread with tuna fish pate (scallions, tuna fish, mustard, Earth balance butter) and l cup tea.

Two hard-boiled eggs, 2 pieces of zucchini bread (made with Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix) and coffee.

This morning I had roast beef on original Rudi's bread, it was on sale so we finally decided to try it and my girls had the cinnamon raisin Rudi's for the same reason.

Not sure if our tastes have changed alot or what, but the bread wasn't too bad and didn't feel like eating cardboard. It was also testing eggs for my youngest so I really hope it works out since she used to be able to eat them in things.

I have been testing Udi's breads ( are they the same as Rudi's??) and seem to be able to tolerate the eggs when in baked items.

I do get some heartburn but I think that is the potato starch/flour not the eggs.

It's a different brand. These are the ingredients for the original Rudi's:

Water, potato extract, rice starch, rice flour, sorghum flour, organic high oleic sunflower/safflower oil, organic evaporated cane juice, organic honey, egg whites, organic inulin, yeast, sea salt, organic molasses, xanthan gum.

We haven't tried the Udi's because I haven't seen it in the stores here, but looking online at the ingredients it looks like the ingredients are similar.

Chives from your garden? Sounds good.

Chives from your garden? Sounds good.

Our chives (and everything else) are growing rampant! Our raised beds are against our white house surrounded by gravel. With the rain we have had things are monstrous. Am trying to keep up with all our herbs!

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
