    tacos?

    My son eats the ones that don't list gluten ingredients - his favorite being Double Dark Chocolate and Fudge Graham (does not actually contain graham). He probably eats one a day on average, and his bloodwork remains negative and he is thriving. I consider Zone bars a lifesaver for him, especially while travelling and during sports seasons. It's been...

    Made fish tacos for the first time ever - lightly (rice) floured cubes of ahi tuna browned in a skillet with olive oil, then served with tomatoes, guacamole, white shredded cheese and cole slaw in warmed corn tortillas. Pretty awesome!

    Very good! I am a Chemical Engineer as my paying job and mom as my non-paying job. And somehow the home mechanical-type stuff usually falls to me as well. Luckily for my son, my love of "chemicals" (which is not a dirty word, by the way - in essence it just means "stuff") and experiments spills over into the kitchen. My gluten-free repertoire...

    Are you an engineer, or just thinking like one??? Either way it's a good observation.

    OK - all you dieters please cover your eyes, but I always wanted to try making a gluten-free French Silk Pie and I did it over the weekend. Turned out great (it's long gone by now) and was much easier than I thought!

    Thanks for your comments. My understanding is that all freshmen are REQUIRED to live in the dorms. We'll be finding out more very soon. I've spoken to the dining services director once, but have more follow up to do for sure.

    You can make a skillet dinner with cubed chicken, red beans and rice, diced tomatoes, seasoning (chili seasoning or just seasoned salt, or salt & pepper). Add ins: onion, peppers, jalapenos, cheese. Serve with tortilla chips. I just cube and cook the chicken, then add everything else using Minute-rice and plenty of liquid from canned tomatoes, and...

    My son has Celiac and is starting at Mizzou this fall. I was trying to make some contacts before going for a campus visit in March, and I got in touch with Beth Jacobs <bethhjacobs@gmail.com>, and she passed along my contact info to a gal named Cheryl, who promptly emailed me a bunch of local info on restaurants and grocery shopping. I think both...

    We have bought tires there also - cheaper than anywhere else I have found.

    We have a membership - luckily, my work pays $15 toward it. But things we buy there: chips, paper towels, TP, sandwich baggies, laundry detergent gum, M&Ms (giant bag), mixed nuts Crunchmaster crackers Hormel pre-cooked bacon, shredded cheese, canned tuna Some baking supplies (chocolate chips, brown sugar, Pam spray) Some fresh...

    What's on your mind?

    Thanks so much for your response. Just by chance, my daughter and I recently went on a high school choir trip to NYC, and we were waiting for the Ellis island ferry when we got to see the Endeavor fly right over us! Got some pretty cool pictures!

    We are going on a quickie family vacation in a couple of weeks. Staying about a mile from the white house and we won't have a car. Any restaurant suggestions? Looking mostly for bar & grill, burgers, pizza type of food. All suggestions welcome - thanks!

    Here are all my secrets for chocolate chip cookies. I use the Tollhouse recipe, but always use Butter flavored Crisco instead of butter/margarine. I add about 1/4 cup extra flour so they don't spread too much. For my flour I use about 1/2 Sorghum and 1/2 Featherlight mix (white rice, tapioca, corn starch). I also throw in 2 heaping tablespoons of ground...

    would you mind sharing the recipe?
  18. bbuster
    I do that also.

    Several cookbooks discuss this, and it's been awhile since I read specifically about the subject, but the only ones I keep in the refrigerator are brown rice and almond flour (and mixes containing them). And I keep potato flour in the freezer since I use so little at a time. I do bake a lot, but I keep the rest of my flours/starches in the pantry: white...

    I have posted on this a few times. I swear I don't get kickbacks or anything! Their labels say: manufactured in a facility that processes ...... and wheat. I have called them directly and their customer service rep was very knowledgeable. They have to make this disclaimer, but also said about how they clean thoroughly when changing products. We...

    My son was diagnosed at age 10 (he is now 17). Most days for lunch he packs a ZonePerfect bar. Not all the versions are gluten-free, but several are, including Double Dark Chocolate, Chocolate Almond Raisin, and Fudge Graham (despite the name). Supplements with chips, snack pack pudding, applesauce, and fresh veggies or fruit.

    I went to college in Rolla, back when it was UMR.

    My son has been receiving these for almost 7 years now. We have 4-5 other people at our parish who receive them too.
