Oh, shoot. Sorry! :(

Thank you anyway. No yeast or eggs is making bread tough to find right now. Maybe eventually I will figure something out, we have been doing some experimenting with almond flour lately so hopefully I find something suitable.

Oh, I bet it makes it very hard. Have you tried something like an Irish Soda bread that does not require yeast? This recipe has no yeast or eggs. Perhaps it might work? I personally omit the currants and caraway (not a fan) but the base is good.

I just KNEW there was something obvious I was missing when I was typing above - PASTA!!!! Fresh, homemade fabulous durum pasta. I'm making my own gluten-free pasta but it is just not the same. :( I stick fresh herbs between sheets and roll out, creating lovely patterns and flavour to try to make up for the missing gluten.

FYI cakes and cupcakes are really easy to make gluten-free. People cannot tell they are gluten-free. I have all sorts of recipes if you are so inclined. :)

That would be awesome! Thanks so much!!!!

The weather just turned real cool here. It made really miss making homemade noodles and chicken noodle soup. I made chicken and rice..but it was not even close to the same comfort food!

I really miss Panera's cinnamon bagel too..fresh and chewy. It used to be my treat on the days I ran errunds.

I tried making a pizza, but the dough seemed more like a biscuit than pizza dough. Very disappointing!

I used to make cream puffs every Christmas. They were a family favorite. I found a recipe, but haven't tried it yet.

My sisters will be VERY disappointed if I can't make their favorite treat, so I hope this recipe works.

Man. People mentioned cinnamon rolls... We moved to California a couple years ago, and soon after, a vegan cinnamon bun joint opened up nearby. They're really delicious... But I was getting sicker and sicker and didn't know about celiac. Once I figured it out, I got some rolls for my gluten "bender" before I went in for an endoscopy... Just being in the store was enough to give me a

Reaction, and eating the rolls was hell.

What rotten luck, I sometimes think. I move to a vegan wonderland for food, and two years later, I can't touch most of it! The loss of convenience is the bummer, especially in our convenience-oriented world.

I miss pizza so much as well but what I really miss the most is eating some of my families peruvian and chilean dishes. I went to Chile a few years ago and eating their empanadas and completos were amazing. I also miss a good beer here and there but definitely my families food. We have converted a few things but you know..it's not the same! :unsure:

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      Hello, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis about 3 years ago. At that time I quit gluten and it really helped my symptoms. I hadn't known that I should've tested for celiac before doing so.  Up till recently, gluten would cause my symptoms to flare up, although I never noticed anything with cross contamination, so I wasn't strict about that. But recently, I noticed I could get away with more gluten, and so I decided to do a gluten challenge to see if I had celiac and if I had to be strict. Note that my thyroid antibodies had been decreasing steadily up to this point. My anti-TPO had reached 50 IU/ml from 250 IU/ml (reference range 0-5.6) when I had first been diagnosed. After just a week of the gluten challenge, I measured my thyroid antibodies and they were at 799 IU/ml! I felt fine, but a few days after I started to feel the symptoms. Extreme brain fog, insomnia, diarheaa, fatigue, sleepiness yet cannot sleep, stomachache after eating gluten, nausea, swollen throat (probably due to my thyroid), burping, and gas. I cannot function properly. I'm also worried that I'm killing my thyroid. Should I just quit the challenge? It's been almost two weeks, but the first week I wasn't tracking well, so that's why I didn't want to count it. I can't eat gluten anyway because of my thyroid, but I wanted the diagnosis to know if I should be strict about cross contamination or not.

      Should I ask for more testing? Celiac vs. Gluten Sensitivity

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      You really saved me as I was on day 4 of 3 g per day for 6 weeks. Thank you very much!

      Two weeks is the minimum according to the guideline. I would go for four weeks if you can endure it, just to make sure.

      Thank you so much! So I can do 10 g worth of gluten in the form of gluten powder per day for two weeks and that should be enough?

      It applies to both blood tests and biopsies. Guidelines for the gluten challenge have been revised for the very issue your question raises. It was felt by medical professionals that the longer term but less intense consumption of gluten approach was not proving to be reliable for testing purposes and was resulting in too many false negatives. But do keep in mind that the gluten consumption doesn't have to be in the form of bread slices. It can come in any form: pasta, cake, wraps, etc. Another approach would be to buy gluten powder at a health food store and mix it in a shake. The idea is to get at least 10g of gluten daily, whatever form it comes in.
