Very Yummy Gluten Free Brownies

after a week into "the change" i wanted brownies - ok i NEEDED brownies - I needed something 'naughty'

I went into the gluten free section of a store called Publix (which is nice! such a HUGE selection! - even has fig newtons) and I got Pamela's Products Chocolate Brownie Mix with rich Dark Chocolate Chunks

I made the recipe the Decadent Cake way - where I added 3/4 cup a milk to it - and my Gluten eating husband almost fell out of his chair and had a choco-gasim from how good it was. Had I honestly not told him (and had he not taken me to the store to pick it up LOL) He would have had NO IDEA it was gluten free (my son has not had any yet LOL )

I have been making the Betty Crocker or gluten-free Pantry mixes. My hub keeps saying they are the best brownies he's ever had. They are more fudgey than cakey which is how he likes them

I made a batch in a 9x13 pan with parchment paper on the bottom. Use the paper to lift them onto a cutting board. Cut them with a serrated or plastic knife. I spread a bunch of Cappacino Chip frozen yogurt on one, then put another on top and froze. Then I put some ganache on top and froze. You can have brownies and ice cream any time!

Wow! You are creative! My last batch was gluten-free pantry and I decided Betty Crocker's is my new favorite :)

Editing to say that Pamela's was my favorite for a long time, early to mid 2000s.

I always make Ina Garten's outrageous brownies on the food network. The recipe makes a lot and there's so little flour in it, the substitution of Better Batter gluten-free flour I have isn't noticeable at all!!

I can buy single servings for a buck at my store, Pam's

is as good as it gets. I always add stuff, toasted sunflower

seeds are awesome! Dried cherries make it wow. AND, use less

liquid and you can make cookies, just a couple or four.

Have you ever tried the brownie mix in a waffle maker? Smile

      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.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
