I want to see what other people eat. I eat awful but I'm on a rut and need some new ideas.

I ate mini beef tacos for breakfast w/ salsa, lettuce, tomatoe. I'd love to eat 4 but i had two.

For lunch I had a small salad, beef stew w/ carrots, celery, and a slew of greens. I cook the beef seperate from the veggies and then mix it all together. Allows me to do many things with the beef.

For dinner I will work on the huge package of chix breast. I was thinking of breading it with sour cream and chive corn puffs ground in blender. Makes a great breading. Then I spray it with EVOO and into the oven for 20 minutes.

I enjoy cooking and treating myself like the Queen that I am. I only get to do this once......why not at least TRY?

Mostly I make huge batches so I can have leftovers all week. So easy to throw it together when it's cooked.

In between meals it's apples with almond butter or raw carrots or celery.

I make "tacos" out of anything and everything. My fav is kimchi carrot taco, an aquired taste for some but I love them. I am really fond of the 1/2 size tortillas I can get around the corner, 2-4 make a meal, one is a great snack! You could cut a tortilla in 1/2 but it's just not the same?

We made vegan cho chip cookies and I ended up adding eggs and white rice to spiff it up. Boy, they were too healthy!!!

And right now I am having a truley homemade cup of hot coco. A real treat.

Today is gluten-free Rice Krispies and ham for B.

Haven't decided what L will be-maybe brown rice pasta, tuna, mixed frozen veg. olive oil sauteed onion and pasley for the "sauce"

Dinner will be leftver brown rice that's in the freezer, the remains of some breakfast sausage patties that I made this week and sauteed kale.

Yesterday was those same sausage petties for breakfast, plus cooked steel cut oats with rice milk.

L was a bunless beef burger patty, oven fries and sauteed zucchini and onions

Dinner was a shepherd's pie. I made 2 individual ones this past weekend.

Tomorrow's breakfast carb is roasted baby red potatoes. I roasted them along with the oven fries yesterday at lunch.

I don't snack often.

I find I don't have an appetite in the morning. I had the day off today and loved a bowl of homemade chicken fennel soup around noon with some almond flour crackers.

I snack on nuts or seeds or fruits, some dried fruits. I like the almond flour because it's high protein, low glycemic, and really satifies the hunger. Even my non-gluten-free DP likes them.

The other snack I like every now and then is Kettle Brand Sea Salt and Pepper Chips. They're yummy! :D

Breakfast was the last piece of the crustless spinach, bacon, and swiss cheese quiche I made Sunday. Lunch was a bowl of leftover meat sauce over cauliflower instead of pasta (also made Sunday). Dinner will be some of the crockpot turkey Makhani with carrots and basmati rice that I made - can you guess? Yes, Sunday. Whatever hasn't been eaten already this week will go in the freezer in single-serving portions. I'm big on hot meals, so I make big batches on the weekends. Tomorrow I will forage in the fridge or freezer, and then start all over again on the weekend. I'm thinking stuffed shells and bean soup. Or risotto with butternut squash and whatever the farmer's market has.

      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.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.

      Hello all, I was diagnosed at the age of 2 as being allergic to yeast.  All my life I have avoided bread and most products containing enriched flour as they  contain yeast (when making the man made vitamins to add back in to the flour).  Within the last year or so, we discovered that even whole wheat products bother me but strangely enough I can eat gluten free bread with yeast and have no reactions.  Obviously, we have come to believe the issue is gluten not yeast.  Times continues to reinforce this as we are transitioning to a gluten free home and family.  I become quite ill when I consume even the smallest amount of gluten. How will my not having consumed breads/yeast/gluten for the better part of decades impact a biopsy or blood work?  I would love to know if it is a gluten intolerance or a genetic issue for family members but unsure of the results given my history of limited gluten intake.   I appreciate the input from those who have gone before me in experience and knowledge. Thank you all!

      I know what you mean. When I get glutened I have severe gut cramps and throw up for 2-3 hr. and then have diarrhea for another several hours. Avoid eating out if at all possible. It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you can be sure will not get cross contaminated like a boiled egg, baked potatos, steamed vegies, fresh fruit. Yes, I know that doesn't sound as appetizing as pizza or a burger and fries but your health is at stake. I also realize that as a 14 year old you don't have a lot of control over where you eat out because you are tagging along with others or adults are paying for it. Do you have support from your parents concerning your need to eat gluten free? Do you believe they have a good understanding of the many places gluten can show up in the food supply?
