ARCHIVED I'm Sick Of Eating The Same Food
DawnS replied to jasonD2's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I would suggest trying things you've never eaten before just because you never felt like you needed to for variety. I've learned to love new vegetables. Using new spices and vinegars can add lots of variety to your food even if you're using the same basic ingredients. I could eat rice every night of the week and never have it taste exactly the same. Get... -
ARCHIVED Food For Life Brown Rice Tortillas
DawnS replied to DawnS's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Definitely! I made some last night and they tasted pretty good, but weren't tortilla-like (too dry/hard). I'd love the recipe. Thanks :-) And I'm actually not sold on brown rice as being the best, they're just what's been available. I really would love to make something using at least partial bean flour for the protein. I'm a gluten-free/soy-free vegan... -
ARCHIVED Food For Life Brown Rice Tortillas
DawnS replied to DawnS's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks,Tom. I see that you are also soy-free. Am I correct in assuming you've had no problem with these being made on the same equipment? I did just call my tj's and they are out right now, but expect a shipment of them tonight. -
ARCHIVED Food For Life Brown Rice Tortillas
DawnS replied to DawnS's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I am not too far from one of them. In fact I was just there yesterday and didn't know they carried them so I didn't look. Do you happen to know if those tortillas are also vegan and soy-free like the ffl ones? -
ARCHIVED Food For Life Brown Rice Tortillas
DawnS posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I did a search and didn't see this anywhere on the board...I hope I'm not duplicate a topic. But I'm wondering...am I the only one having a hard time finding the FFL brown rice tortillas? There used to be 3 grocery stores in my area that carried them and all of them have been out for at least 2 months. I asked at WFM and the purchaser said he keeps ordering... -
ARCHIVED Please Help With My School Project
DawnS replied to DawnS's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Whew! I'm finished...and 28 hours early!! I couldn't have done it without you. Thanks so much for all your help! For those of you that thought you were getting free psycho-analyzation...sorry. This was strictly a graphic/visual thing. There is this "golden ratio" in the math world. It is present in nature. It is widely believed to have been used in... -
ARCHIVED Please Help With My School Project
DawnS replied to DawnS's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Thanks everybody, I'm still collecting data. But somebody (tom)here is pretty quick and on top of their math! It's just a short little research paper (supposed to be 2-3 pages...but I can hardly write a letter that's only 2-3 pages!), but when I'm done I'll give you more info and might even post the paper on my website. The survey part is a little something... -
ARCHIVED Please Help With My School Project
DawnS posted a topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Hi. I'm sorry for the short notice, but if you have a couple minutes to help me out - that would be great! A short (6 questions) survey for a research project. The first question is just male/female (be sure not to miss it, i didn't design it very well!) Then the rest are groups of graphics (lines, squares, circles, etc) and all you need to do is... -
I've actually done this with turkey, but would do it the same way for chicken. I can't have eggs either, so I make the flax seed egg replacement. Then I roll the turkey nuggets (cut breast cutlets to the right side) in that. Eggs would work if you can have them. Then I make a mixture of quinoa flakes and whatever gluten free flour i have (usually i use...

I'll have to do a little experimenting as i don't use much corn and am allergic to eggs. But the basis sounds really good and pretty easy. Thanks :-)

My favorite at my local Chinese restaurant is General Tso's chicken and I haven't gotten that quite figured out yet. And at least next week I'm going to do a vegetarian/detox diet so it'll be a while before I get that. But since I've got the "soy sauce" pretty close and I know how to make "chicken nuggets" I think I'll get it eventually BUT...I finally...

ARCHIVED My Story
DawnS replied to karma's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I second the probiotics idea. I'd also suggest looking into glutamine powder. It's really good for the health of your intestines. Unhealthy intestines affect everything else in the body. I hope things will improve for you soon. -
ARCHIVED Bare Minerals (essentials) Makeup
DawnS replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I used to use the mineral veil with whatever other brand(s) of makeup I was using at the time. I only quit using it because I found out a few of the ingredients are no-nos for me. It was great stuff! -
ARCHIVED Fantastic Flavor - Bad Consistency
DawnS replied to DawnS's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Open Original Shared Link Here's the link. It's called Habib's Raw Nut Cheese. The semester started today so I don't know whether I'll get to start it tonight or wait til the weekend. But if I get to it before you, I'll let you know how it goes. -
I hope you don't get a major reaction! But just because you don't this time, doesn't mean much for later. Last year after being about 6 mos gluten/dairy free (right after dx) I went out of the country where I didn't have any choice about what I was served to eat. So I ate everything...with no reaction. The cravings started back for those things and...

ARCHIVED Thats It I Fired My Dr!
DawnS replied to loco-ladi's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Good for you...fire away! I had my gall bladder removed (there were some problems there, but after the surgery we figured out not THE problem) the a little while later I spent months on an acid reducer and had such bad chest pains that I ended up having tests leading right up to a heart catheterization!. Thousands of dollars later (which I'm STILL paying... -
I haven't tried it, but I have read that you can do that. Or use lemon juice with the almond milk. I tbsp per cup of milk

ARCHIVED A New Weight Loss Support/accountability Thread
DawnS replied to lonewolf's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Well in that case, it's definitely the Marble Slab ;-) -
I live in Clayton, NC (about 30 min SE of Raleigh) and I work in Raleigh. Momma Goose, I wish I had been more active on this board a month ago...I was just on a weekend vacation in Edenton! It's certainly a lovely town. I was staying in the historic district just a couple blocks from the courthouse and the sound.

after reading your signature line, i was going to ask if you had any good gluten-free/soy f Chinese recipes. I like Chinese food and have pretty much given up ...i'd give anything for a good General Tso's chicken. Well, maybe not anything, but it would be worth a lot. Especially since I've got a pretty heavy case of PMS going on today! lol

Wow, now having somebody who tries to do this diet with you? That is a blessing! Everything is easier with somebody that will do it with you. And you don't have to feel that your comments are lame, we've all been there and it's great to have somebody to listen to us, so it's our pleasure to do it for you :-) Take care and let us know how things are going...

ARCHIVED Insensitive Family Members

One of my favorites is "but how much could possibly be in this little tiny cookie?" or something like that. Well meaning, loving people who just don't get it! -
ARCHIVED A New Weight Loss Support/accountability Thread
DawnS replied to lonewolf's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I don't know if I'm drooling more over the Marble Slab or the sleeping til 1pm. -
Glad to hear that you think this will help you. It's amazing how much less time I spend in the kitchen and how much better I'm eating. In fact, this week I have enough stuff in the freezer from earlier that I didn't take out, that I might not have to cook at all. I had family in over the weekend and didn't get to, so I might just get to skip it I'll...
