Chebe's Fans

KarenG mentioned heating up frozen Chebe's breadsticks in her toaster oven. I don't have one and don't have room in my galley kitchen for another appliance.

Frozen pre-cooked Chebe breadsticks can be plopped in a standard toaster (my setting is at 3) and they come out pefect!!!! :)

I made some of the breadsticks into knots, and two of those frozen knots fit into my toaster (so I'll be flattening future batches), and they turned out good, but a bit cool in the middle. (Im thinking a double toast would be good at a "2" and they'd be awesome for breakfast sanwiches or BLT's.

The toasted breadsticks/buns were so much better than UDI's, and the toasting really improved the texture of the bread. The best thing is that they were ready so quick, I actualy thought of this during our meal. :) "Do you want some bread, hon?" "That would be great!"

Just thought this could help someone else, so wanted to share.

Thanks!

I do have an oven toaster (no slice vertical one, though).

I am liking Chebe so far. I really like the focaccia bread, as does hubby. FYI I think they serve it at The Ritz Carlton for gluten-free guests!!!

I tried the pizza crust and I think I undercooked it but it was still ok. And FAST. Bought a pizza pan (holes in it) today so may try again soon.

Have the breadstick and rolls box but haven't tried it yet.

I bought the focacciia mix but have't tried it yet. The local HF store had Chebe's on sale for $2.29 last week! (I stocked up.)

Good luck with your holy pizza pan. I find it best to stick it on a lower oven rack for (still trying to determine the right amount of time, but I think it's 2/3 the time, then rotate it and move it to the top of the oven for the remainer 1/3 baking time. I use the holy pizza pan for the breadsticks and rolls, I think you'll be happy with your purchase.

And designate AN oven mitt or use a dish towel to cushion your fingers, or just suck it up and turn the breadsticks over miday through baking. (I know you're wondering why I don't use tongs, but they haven't worked thus far.

I love the flavor of Chebe bread. When I was a little girl, we brought nickels and pennies to Sunday School for the poor children in South America who had no bread. They had to eat bread made from manioc flour. I want my money back! That's good stuff.

We reheated frozen cooked pizza today in the oven. It was good, but I tought outloud that next time I'd try reducing the amount of chese in the crust. DP thought it was fabulous, but he likes everything, and said it was like a New York crust. I think next time I make the crust I'll use 1/2 vs. 1 cup of cheese. It was good, but the crust was moist in the midddle (so I think DB made that up about NY).

I used less cheese the second time I made the focaccia.

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person.  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      A gluten ingestion can last for many months.  Many years ago there was a celiac conference in Fl.  Everyone there got contaminated with some having difficulty 6 months to recover.  It will hit your Lympatic system and spread  through the body and effect your nevous system as well. Most times when I get glutened it is from a prescription med that wasn't checked close enough.  the Pharmacuticals change vendors all the time.

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps.  I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday.  I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testing but the PA recommended me to a celiac specialist. Unfortunately the first available is mid-December.  As far as diet, I am a pescatarian (have been for 25+ years) and I stopped eating dairy mid-last week as my stomach discomfort continued. Right now, I’m having trouble eating anything. Have mostly been focused on bananas, grapes, nut butters, DF yogurt, eggs, veggie broth.   I ordered some gluten-free meal replacements to help.  But I’ll get all the items (thank goodness for Instacart) and try the diet you recommended to get me past this period of feeling completely awful.  Yes, my doctor diagnosed celiac. I was concerned it wasn’t right based on the negative blood test and my continued symptoms.  Even if you are ‘glutened’ it shouldn’t last forever, right? Is four days too long?
