Really Goooood!!! I was SURE I was going to hate it because it doesn't rise at all and I'm not sure why yeast is even used. I'm using a pizza pan with holes in it. I also added parm cheese and garlic powder to the crust.

I generally don't like a thin crust, but it was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I'll need to double or triple the recipe next time because the pizza is pretty small.

I love this one because its easier to work with - its more like a batter than a dough. I get too frustrated with pizza dough because its so sticky.

See, Suzanna, you can have pizza!!! Let's see...now you need angel food cake?

Both recipes sound good and I've printed both of them.

Yes, Sylvia! I couldn't stand it any longer - the cravings for those foods. I think I ate 5 slices of pizza tonight. I bought all the necessary ingredients for one angelfood cake recipe. The pictures look good, but there are no reviews on the recipe. Once I conquer those two recipes, I think I'll start feeling a little more positive about my diet! That is, until the holidays are upon us! ;)

Glad you finally satisified that craving!!! I also craved pizza but was trying to avoid dairy right away. So when I finally did make it, I pigged out, too. :lol: Now I make it quite often.

You'll have to let us know how the angel food cake goes...I haven't made one yet. When the holidays are near, I'm sure someone will come up with lots of things you can make!

Wonderful recipe! I've been using it almost every Friday night over the past 2 months and my kids and I both love it!

It certainly heats up better than most gluten-free crusts as well!

I also melt butter and add garlic powder and salt and brush it on the crust when it comes out of the oven the final time - reminds me of Domino's crust.

I have even brushed it on before the 2nd cooking and it made the crust crispy (but easy to burn if you don't watch it.)

I've noticed that it doesn't rise, despite the yeast. I'm considering letting it rise for 30 minutes next time OR doubling the recipe to make for a thicker crust. Have you tried either of these?

I haven't made this recipe but most recipes involving yeast require you to "proof" the yeast first and also let it rise. This recipe just has you throwing everything into the bowl and mixing it, which explains why the crust didn't rise at all. Which is really strange because it has all the components you need to proof the yeast first. Ideally, what you should do is mix all the dry ingredients except the yeast. Then mix yeast, warm water and few tablespoons of the dry ingredients in a small bowl. Let it sit for 15-30 minutes or until it's bubbly and smells yeasty. Then mix the proofed yeast with the dry ingredinets and everything else, spread it out on the pan and let it rise for 30 minutes. The recipe I use for gluten-free pizza (King Arthur's gluten-free recipe) has two rises--you let it rise for 30 minutes in the bowl after mixing (covered in a warm spot) and then spread on pan and let it rise a second time. Proofing the yeast and letting it rise at least once should help the recipe a lot. Let us know how it works if you try it!

Well, I *did* proof the yeast. I just can't, in good conscience, not do that. Doesn't matter what the recipe says, I put the yeast in warm water along with some sugar and let it get frothy. I was wondering why it didn't require any rising. I might try this next time. That's how I would do it with "normal" dough. Plus, I would think it would be easier to work with once it rises. I'll bet it turns out a lot better if I do that. I'll let you all know!

I'm super excited to try out the recipe you posted Suzanna. My one weakness is pizza and if I can find a delicious replacement, then it will be much easier for me to stay gluten-free.

I plan on trying to make this pizza this weekend... key word "Try". I'm not the best cook. :-)

I love ranch sauce and red sauce, but am not sure what brand to use. Any recommendations? Thank you

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…

      Food Allergies

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      7yo struggling!

      By JForman · Posted

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?
