Thanks!! We only get the Orgran self-raising flour here. You don't put any shortening/knob of butter (like me mum used to do) or anything in it?

No, no butter. But I have used Orgran and it was fine- a little more runny perhaps? Actually- whats even nicer is if you do 1 cup S/R and one cup brown rice flour, 2 eggs, two cups of milk...mmmm

I made some gorgeous focaccia yesterday so will be having it in sandwich form with honey ham, Provolone and pistachio mint pesto I made in the fall. As I am trying to clean our our freezers I will also be having a smoothie with blueberries, strawberries and raspberries.

Today I made myself Eggs Benedict on a gluten-free bun. As the dish is not exactly fat free I am scarfing down a ton of fresh blackberries.

Today was Pacific organic creamy tomato soup with some Hot Kid rice crisps. I limit nightshades and vegetables so this was a SPECIAL treat for me :D

I was so please yesterday when I shopped that Progresso has labeled several soups gluten free on the front label. I love to support the companies who support us. :D

PS: I live in the US.

Very similar to yesterday - grilled aged provolone cheese sandwich (homemade bread) with a lick of blueberry ginger "jam" I made the other day and a touch of homemade Dijon mustard.

Raw cukes and carrots.

As I knew I'd be making a complex Korean dinner I opted for a simple blueberry raspberry smoothie. That's it!

That sounds heavenly. There's something simply magical about velveeta.

I'm feeling lazy today so I'll probably just slap some sauce and cheese on one of those crusts in my freezer and finally give them a test run. (They better be good, they cost a fortune!)

I saw that movie the other day. So good.

I had pasta with sirloin meatballs and a tiny, tiny bit of tomato sauce.

I am slowly adding tomato back. So far it has been ok.

I really hope this leads to success in the tomato department for you!

Today's lunch was a turkey sandwich on Udi's bread with a little lettuce and red onion.

Nothing spectacular but it was DE-LISH

Raspberry and Mango Smoothie (with lactose-free yogurt). It was lovely and thick as a milkshake. YUM!

Today I will be making myself Eggs Benedict with some lovely local ham and orange-yolked eggs and my guilty pleasure (well, one of them) hollandaise. But I did not bring any English muffins with me (I am housesitting out of town) so I will use homemade bread instead.

I will be having a tropical smoothie. When I make smoothies I use milk as the liquid rather than juice for a thick, milkshake-like concoction. I also add ground flax seed.

Out of the house today subbing at the college. Brought some leftover chicken alfredo and a rather large slice of coconut pie. It isn't often I have to worry about lunch out of the house.

ooh, I like this thread even more than the dinner one! Lunch usually baffles me. I had a sauteed chicken breast with spinach. My seasoning was perfect today because it was unreal banana peel! :lol:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By trents · Posted

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
