I generally cut up baked or grilled chicken breasts, add onions, bell peppers, black olive slices, passover mayo, celery, and mix (other things you could add would be nuts, grapes, diced tomatoes, etc. anything your can imagine).

I too love chicken salad with grapes!!! I just add helman's or miracle whip salad dressing to the chicken until moist then toss in lost of grapes cut in half. If she likes walnuts toss those in too. It is very yummy!!!

My mom's secret is to put a dash or two of lemon juice in---makes it yummy!

Chicken Salad

1 1/2 cups chicken, chopped or shredded

1/3 cup grapes, cut into wedges

1/4 cup celery, chopped

1-2 tablespoons onions, finely chopped (more or less is your preference)

1/4 cup coarsly chopped walnuts, can be raw or toasted

dash of black pepper

mayo (enough to make it creamy)

chop all the fruits and vegetables.

mix all ingredients into a bowl and stir well.

serve as a sandwich filling, or on a bed of choped lettuce.

*All measurements are approximate and you can add more or less of anything to your liking. There are no real set measurements, I just estimated to give you an idea of about how much I use. I basically just chop everything up and toss it all together.

**I have also added chopped apples occasionally, as well as substituted dried cranberries when I didn't have fresh grapes. You can use almost any type of nut if you can't eat walnuts (or don't like them).

A quick chicken sandwich filling

1 Cooked chicken without the skin with all bones removed and pulled into little parts. Mix teaspoon turmeric, mayonnaise and apricot chutney together. Mix the sauce with the chicken. Use grilled red bell peppers/capsicum or ungrilled raw pepper, cut into 1cm strips. Take 2 slices of bread place a lettuce leaf or two on each side put some grilled red capsicum/ red bell peppers on the bread and some of the chicken mix enjoy the sandwich.

Or

Chicken salad

Make a salad use the chicken mix ad some lettuce leaves, strips of freshly cut red bell peppers/capsicum and add half a cut melon cut into blocks. Add some slivered almonds optional. Add some pealed lychees Open Original Shared Link

This is a richer version that is great for an appetizer - just mix chicken, chopped red apples, chopped celery and cream cheese. I put this atop homemade crackers - I roll out Pamela's Biscuit Mix pretty thin and bake on 425 until they're brown, turning once. Mmmmmm...

For crackers and sandwiches, we do: chicken, chopped celery, green onions, red peppers, mayo and a tiny squirt of yellow mustard, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
