  1. Hey - check out my topic I added about my George Foreman grill. It made an amazing grilled ham and cheese with the Whole Foods sandwich bread - and it was my very first try. I just thawed the bread (just on the counter) for about 30-45 minutes first. I hope you enjoy your bread. Did you by chance by the biscuits? Those are FANTASTIC!!!
  2. I recently bought a George Foreman counter top grill. After a recent trip to Whole Foods (one just opened in my area) I purchased a loaf of their sandwich bread (gluten free). Tonight I thawed 2, slices, spread real butter, added a slice of american cheese and several slices of thinly sliced smoked ham (gluten free). Just a regular grilled ham and cheese...
  3. I have run into the same problem since going gluten free. My main problem is that I did not want to offend anyone. However, after getting "glutened" almost everytime I ate outside of my own kitchen, I learned to better care for myself. For family get-togethers, I take my own plate of food. Period. My mom loves me- but she does not have a good grasp on gluten...
  4. Thanks to you both for posting. I know what you mean about being too scared to ingest it on purpose. You know, these recent symptoms do remind me of what I was feeling before diagnosis. Although, it was all the time, because I was eating gluten all the time. I appreciate your responses. I really do think that is what is going on. I ate out late Sunday...
  5. Hi everyone. I have been gluten-free for 2-1/2 years. Since being off gluten, I have had very distinctive reactions when I have accidentally ingested gluten. At first, it would happen almost exactly 12 hours from ingestion. I would have severe stomach pain for 6 hours, with severe nausea and some vomiting. At the end of the 6 hours, it was over and done....
  6. I've made bagels numerous times using the Pamela's bread mix. The recipe or the bagels is right on the bag. I foud they were very good toasted for breakfast wth a topping and I made "bagel pizzas" all the time. The recipe was fairly easy- but ther were several steps and the dough had to rise - so make sure to allow enough time!
  7. I LOVE WINGS!!! I have been tinkering with my "recipe" for a while now and have finally ended up with a good and easy way to make them at home. a I cook them in my electric frying pan in about 1 inch of oil, turning them frequently, browning them and cooking them through until done. Then, I make aluminum foil pouches - because my family likes them...
  8. I've been eating a lot of Rice Chex the last week, myself. My husband bought me 2 boxes and he joked yesterday that he should have bought 10!!!! I hadn't thought about making anything with them yet - I've been way TOO BUSY eating them. The rice chex treats sound heavenly, though. Thanks for the ideas!!!!
  9. Tonight was country style pork ribs in the crockpot with Sweet Baby Rays, white rice and gluten-free cornbread. (made from Pamela's pancake and baking mix - recipe on her website). My regulars are lasagna (tinykada noodles, prego sauce, mozzerella and cottage cheese), tacos, chicken breasts (just sauteed and dipped in whatever I feel like at the moment...
  10. Acid reflux was my worst gluten symptom. I had others, but the heartburn and reflux were the WORST!!! I tried all the medications, OTC ones and prescription ones. Nothing ever helped - until I went gluten free. However, I still had intermittently problems. When I get cross contamination - I get the reflux/heartburn symptoms again. Once I stopped eating...
  11. Celiac mommy - Rachelle : I just wanted to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't post much - but I read often and read through the chocolate chip cookie thread (of course). Your recipe for your perfect chocolate chip cookies was AMAZING. I had just received a box of Pamela's baking and pancake mix and had everything on...
  12. Great thread - we can all use new ideas! Here's a list of my quick and easy standbys: 1 - Chicken breasts cut up into bite size pieces, cooked in a frying pan with just a little oil. I only add salt and pepper, cook until brown and dip in Sweet Baby Rays. I usually have this with baked potato with butter, sour cream and bacon bits. The chicken cooks really...
  13. Hi everyone. I posted a few weeks ago asking for suggestions of food to take along on a 5 day trip (10 hour car ride each way). The suggestions were fantastic and I made it through the whole trip without getting glutened!! I packed pepperoni's, string cheese, Glutino pretzels and Mi-Del ginger snaps for the car. I used Wendy's for my fast food safe choice...
  14. Hey Lisa - I'm gluten-free 9 months - but I wanted to tell you I have a lot of trouble with nuts - especially peanuts. I can handle a little bit, but I've noticed that if I eat them over several days (in any form) I get a very "gluten like" reaction. Just my 2 cents. Melissa
  15. We're traveling to Kentucky later in the week for a competition for my son. Toot's restuarant is a favorite of the team - they have been in previous years. From the website, Toot's is a regional chain, only a 4 or 5 restaurants in Kentucky in Tennessee. I am going to call the Bowling Green location, to see if I can talk to someone, but was wondering if anyone...
  16. I just wanted to thank everyone for the great ideas. Now I have a pretty god list of things to take. The canned bread idea was amazing. I would never have imagined that! Now I need to go get some bread mix and give it a try!! Thanks again for taking the time to respond! melissa
  17. Hi everyone - I need some help. I am going to be traveling to Bowling Green, Kentucky the end of June. Its a 10 hour trip - and while I have pretty good plans for some meals while out there - I'd like some suggestions for what people pack in the car to take for snacks. I do not have any other food intolerences, just gluten. My biggest problem is that I have...
  18. Hey Donna - I know we all react differently - but that was a very good description of what happens to me when I get glutened now! Very, very similar. To the original poster - sorry you're having problems. A week is about normal for me. I've been gluten free for 9 months - and its happens very infrequently now. However, I did eat something last...
  19. Sorry you're not feeling better. I tired gluten-free a couple of years ago for 6 months, but kept eating Rice Krispies, soy sauce and oatmeal. I felt better, but not normal. I finally convinced myself it must not be gluten that was the problem, went back to eating whatever, and then a year later (last summer) I was the sickest I have ever been in my life...
  20. Hi everyone. Thanks for the invitation to post - some of us need a little nudging to get out of the shadows! I visit and read on a regular basis - mostly this forum and the baking and recipes forum. I've even posted a few times!! The information here has been so helpful to me. I've been gluten free a little over 6 months. I've had trouble for almost...
  21. First of all, congratulations on doing so well on your diet and getting control of the food in your own house. That in intself is a challenge. I, too, thinknig eating at someone elses house is the hardest part. I always feel like I'm being difficult - and I'm scared to eat, too. I just blows my mind how easily some people accept it - and how hard other people...
  22. Okay - I've been doing some experimenting in my great search to satisfy my pizza craving. I bought the Kinnikinnick small pizza crusts and made pizza - crust, sauce, some pepperonis, mozzerella. Nothing fancy, and pretty good. I love the texture of hte pizza crust, but I thought it was a bit sweet. So, my experiment. I decided instead of pizza, I'd try...
  23. Hi all. I've been gluten-free since the first of October - no diagnosis - but feeling absolutely GREAT! I had made the decision not to do back for an official diagnosis, just to remain gluten free. Then, over the weekend, I started feeling bad. Saturday night, my husband asked me what was wrong, and I told him that my body felt funny. Achy, I was tired,...
  24. I got glutened accidentally this week. Saturday afternoon and evening, I just felt "off." No stomach symptoms, just tired, achy, headache, etc. Sunday morning, I had the horrible indigestion, then the diarrhea most of the day. I know I was completely gluten free Sunday morning, all day Saturday and Friday night for dinner. So, it took a while to see the obvious...
  25. Great thread! JerseyAngel - ME TOO!!!! I am using potato starch flour for EVERYTHING. I ordered a CASE of it! I'm only gluten-free for 2 months and Roben Ryberg's Gluten Free Kitchen cookbook I picked up the first week. It is so wonderful. The cake donuts and gingerbread are my favorites!! Tinykada pasta - eveyrone in my house eats it and no one...
