Someone in this forum asked for this recipe, but didn't give me an address ~ so I'm posting here, hoping this won't get moved to recipes..... :)

Okay -- homemade, nutrient dense gluten-free granola bars:

4 C crushed flaked gluten-free cereal (like Amazon crunch)

1.5 C sliced almonds, crushed (put 'em in a bag and whack away)

1C dried fruit (cut it into little pieces if need be)

1C mini choc. chips (optional)

mix all those together in a big bowl. In a small saucepan combine

1C peanut butter

3/4 C light corn syrup

until they are warm and smooth

Pour the syrup over the cereal mix, blend well, wrestle into a Pam-sprayed pan (or non stick; don't grease the pan or you'll have it going everywhere) about 9X13 (I actually use a slightly smaller pan--definitely don't use bigger) and press down HARD. Put it in the refrigerator until it's hard enough to cut up into whatever size you want. (I do kudo-size rectangles). Wrap them in waxed paper and freeze for later, or refrigerate. One weekend my husband actually melted chocolate and dunked a bunch of these, to make himself candy bars.......

Those sound really good. I miss granola bars a lot. I had gotten a granola bar mix from Miss Roben's and it just didn't have much flavor. I'll have to try these, sounds good!!

Thanks for the great sounding recipe- with so many options too. Can't wait to get settled into our new house so I can try these. The candy bar idea sounds great or I might just drizzle a little over the top, to entice the little one.

Thank you so much for posting this. I was the one that emailed you for the recipe. This board is new to me, so I am still trying to figure things out. The recipe sounds really good, can't wait to try it out.

Thanks again,

I made this recipe tonight and added a couple of things. I used dried cranberries for the fruit and added crispy brown rice cereal to the corn flakes. These are really good and my celiac daughter loves them!

Thank you for the recipe.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
