Wow! Great Stuffed Mushrooms!

Because of the "What's for Dinner" thread, I bought ground lamb at an outrageous price, $8.99 per pound. (I had to try the gyros!) I had left over 'shrooms that I bought for pizza. I googled lamb stuffed mushrooms and regrettably can't attribute the author, but had a yum moment tonight.

I mixed about 1/8 cup ground lamb with about 3 T. minced onion and scallion, a T. of chopped sage, and the chopped remains of the mushroom stems. Then I mixed in approximately 1/3 cup feta cheese. I filled the mushrooms with that mixture and baked them at 400 degrees in a casserole dish for 30 minutes. I originally placed those shrooms on a cookie sheet, but realized they'd produce liquid, so stuck them in a casserole dish.

Once they were cooked through and browned nicely, I removed the stuffed mushrooms to a plate. I added about 2 T Greek yogurt to the baking juices, stirred that up, and drizzled the sauce over the stuffed 'shrooms. OMG. It tasted better than beef stroganoff.

We had other stuff tonight, but it was all about the 'shrooms. I love it when we discover new good things, this was one of those moments.

I know I've read somewhere that mushrooms are good for people with AI diseases. OMG those mushrooms were good! Let us know how your's turned out... :)

that sounds deee licious!! what a great idea - i am *always* stumped by the 'what's for dinner?' question - nobody ever makes any suggestions. some day i'm gonna feed them cat food. maybe that'll teach 'em HAHAHA

marilyn - the grocery store didn't have any ground lamb (just my luck) the recipe i was loosely following called for 2lbs so i subbed 1 lb ground pork and 1 lb (of all things) organic buffalo meat that was on manager's special. i would bet 1 lb of pork and 1 lb of lean ground beef would work pretty well also. 4 kids + no $$ = i am the Queen of the Improvise.

("yes. there IS mayonnaise in this cake. i had no eggs. you want cake or not?")

ROFLOL notme!

Good for you for improvising! For the gyros, I'm using lamb and lean ground beef and I'm going to whirl a few pieces of bacon up in the blender, or maybe not. (The thought of having to wash my blender after whirlling up bacon is right up there with eating cat food!) I was planning to use lamb and ground chicken, but the grocery didn't have ground chicken.

I had the 'shrooms for lunch today. I eat before everyone else and everyone in sniffing distance of the lunchroom said, "Wow that smells great, what are you eating?" It was kind of gratifying being the object of food envy from my co-workers that can (and do) eat anything on the planet! :D

Did you make the gyros yet?

notme Experienced

i did make the gyros :) i have a food processor from 1985 (seriously! it is a GE and it still works lol) so it was 1 lb ground pork, 1 lb ground buffalo about 8 cloves of garlic and 1/2 an onion, salt n pepper - just about killed the old processor <been trying to kill this thing for yearssss.... ! anyway, got that ground up into a "paste" and jammed it into a loaf pan and baked at 375F for about an hour , took it out of the oven (drain grease) then set another weighted loaf pan on top of it for 20 minutes and it squished the rest of the grease out of it. it was the first time i made it this way and it turned out so good (and it was easy) that i won't make the meat any other way now. i may use different meat, though, just for variety. or what's on sale lol! did you try the udi's pizza crust? that is what i ate my 'gyro' on (just made a pizza out of it and put tomatoes, lettuce, onion, cucumber/yogurt stuff that i can't spell, etc on at the end) next time i might just make a giant pita out of the crust and bite it in a huge sammich. yummmzz :) first, i am trying your mushrooms :D i'll just TELL them it's cat food HAHAHAHAAAA!! :evil:

Wow! That GE food processor can take a lickin and keep on ticking! :D

We had gyros tonight, yum! I used a reciped from the slow cooker 365 site modified with an Allrecipes recipe.

Mine was on a flatbread I make with chick pea flour. (We have an Indian grocery store so the flour is inexpensive.) I haven't tried Udi's pizza dough yet. Is it good?

I for some unknown reason decided to add shredded red cabbage to the yogurt sauce last night. So our sauce was pink! (Not pretty, but by gosh it tasted good!) I loved the gyros!

Gyros will become something we do evey month I think.

By the way, I found a recipe on how to make your own yogurt on the crockpot site. I'm thinking about trying that. :)

Hi Cougie,

Here's the link. I think I remember in the comments section that it said you can make it with lactose free milk but the person who tried it with coconut milk failed. Not sure it will work with your casein free diet, but here it is... I'm pretty sure nobody tried it with cashew or rice milk, and I think the person who tried coconut milk didn't use raw coconut milk. Good luck, hope you have good results with your yogurt making. There's another link for making coconut milk yogurt somewhere on the forum. but I for the life of me can't remember where.

I think I'd try it with homemade almond milk vs. almond breeze. Here's a link that explains that. I had a problem (probably soy connected) with almond breeze...

If it works, let me know! Good luck!

      Thank you for sharing this — it’s really important. The FDA is actively seeking public input on improving gluten and ingredient labeling, which could directly impact how people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity shop and stay safe. Clearer labeling would help reduce accidental gluten exposure and make it easier to identify hidden sources of gluten in foods. I encourage everyone here who is affected by celiac or gluten sensitivity to read the announcement and submit their own suggestions — real lived experience matters and can influence policy changes that benefit the whole community.

      A low tTG is great news, but it doesn’t always mean the small intestine has fully healed yet—iron and vitamin D absorption can lag behind for months or even years, especially in young children. Many kids need supplements for a period of time while the gut repairs itself, and that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be lifelong. Morning stomach pain is also commonly reported in celiac kids and can be related to slow healing, reflux, motility, or even low iron itself. It sounds like the supplements are clearly helping, which is reassuring, and ongoing monitoring with her doctor can help determine when (or if) doses can be reduced as absorption improves. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      A lot of gluten-free packaged foods do rely on extra sugar, starches, or sodium to replace texture and flavor, so focusing on simpler options makes sense. Many people do better with naturally gluten-free proteins like eggs, plain yogurt, nuts, seeds, hummus, beans, and minimally processed protein bars with lower added sugar and higher fiber. Pairing those with whole foods can help you feel more “normal” without triggering symptoms. Subscription boxes can be hit or miss, so checking labels carefully and using them as an occasional supplement—rather than a staple—often works best.

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.
