I'm New Here, And How I Came To Be Here Is A Long Story.

Hi everyone!!

I'm not sure how this site works, but here's my story:

I am a nurse. I do not have celiac disease (or a food allergy). I have friends that do, and what I've experienced with my friends/patients is that it is a very difficult thing to deal with- the learning how to eat all over again to avoid some of the suffering that you guys have to deal with.

I'm trying to make the world a better place, one gluten free dessert at a time. Silly? Maybe. I'm a Southern girl, though, and we're always feeding everyone!

I created a recipe for gluten free lemon bars, and I was wondering if you all would take a look. Or better yet, make it and tell me what you think.

I'm also interested in what other desserts people like that may not be available without wheat based flours.

I have made it my mission to make gluten free stuff that actually tastes good.

I thank you so much in advance for your help, and I'm really excited to hear from you guys!!!

You forgot to post the recipe. :)

You forgot to post the recipe. :)

Well, it's not that I forgot, it's that I posted it with a link... Which as I found out today, is against the rules. So the link was deleted, and I am afraid to post the recipe for fear that Google will flag me for duplicate content, even though I don't think one can plagiarize their own work. Sighhhhhh.

I wish there were a way for me to do that little emoticon with its head banging on the wall. It's TOTALLY appropriate here.

It's okay to post a link to your own content, as long as it is on your profile page, not in the body of the forum. :)

Give that a try.

Thank you so much for helping me find a way around this. Since I'm still super new (and all my posts have to be viewed and approved by a moderator), I will do it first thing tomorrow if you can tell me how. I looked around on the profile page, but I'm unsure how best to proceed. You. Are. Awesome.

Hi!! As soon as I figure out how to post it on my profile, it'll be there. I'll let you know when that finally happens, and if you're still interested, I'd love it if you'd be so kind as to give it a whirl.

Ps- I love NC. Spent a lot of summers in Brevard as a child :)

Maybe you can copy and paste your recipe.

They look delicious! I really miss lemon bars, and I'm going to give these a try this weekend.

Thanks for posting!

kittty!!! I would be BEYOND flattered if you would. I'm working super hard on this stuff, so please (pretty please with sugar and all the good stuff) let me know how you like them.

Don't spare my feelings. :)

On the coast like Outer Banks coast or elsewhere?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
