Has anyone tried using quinoa flakes in place of oatmeal in recipes? I thought they might be a good replacement in things such as oatmeal cookies and meatloaf or meatballs. They look more brittle than oatmeal however, so not sure how it will/would work. I'm going to do some experimenting but let me know if you have tried it. I would love to hear experiences...

ARCHIVED Your Favorite Homemade Pizza Crust?
angel-jd1 replied to kactuskandee's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I know this isn't "homemade", however if I am going to eat pizza, then darnit I am NOT spending all day in the kitchen making it. I use amy's rice crust pizza, fry some hamburger, onions, and peppers. Top the amy's pizza with my toppings (pepparoni, mushrooms, hamburger mixture, more cheese) and bake in the oven. I have tried some of the other... -
ARCHIVED Please Point Me To An Online Gf Letter ...

Here is a letter that I use sometimes, I found it somewhere and changed a few things in it: Sometimes I just use this: The first letter seems too long, I seem to get better responses from something short and to the point. Hope it helps you out. -Jessica -
ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed: Horrible Mood Swings
angel-jd1 replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
You need to speak with your doctor immediately. Depending on the medication, quitting it "cold turkey" could do some severe damage also!!!! So against the advice of others, please do NOT stop taking your meds until you talk to your doctor. BUT you do need to speak with him/her immediately. Taking meds that contain gluten isn't safe either, but the effects... -
ARCHIVED Enviorkidz Products!
angel-jd1 replied to terryjean's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Envirokidz had some issues about a year ago with contamination. They were not testing their batches to make sure they were OK. I sure hope this problem isn't comming up again. You might try giving them a call to see when the last time they tested was. -Jessica -
ARCHIVED Kid-friendly Granola Bars
angel-jd1 replied to ryebaby0's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
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!! -Jessica -
ARCHIVED Complete List Of Symptoms?
angel-jd1 replied to anerissara's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Here is a list that GFforlife compiled on the "old" celiac.com board. It has some of the symptoms. The complete list of 200+ came from the NIH conference last summer, however it was never released because the symptoms change or some other odd reason. But this list is very good so here it is: -Jessica -
ARCHIVED Help! Progesterone Med Gf?
angel-jd1 replied to Donna F's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Donna- You are not going to absorb gluten vaginally. The gluten must pass through your intestinal system to do damage. The only reason you would need to worry is if you have DH. Otherwise you should be fine. Gellcaps are made of gelatin which is usually made of animal bone. You could just have a burning from the medication itself. Nothing to do... -

ARCHIVED Training Camp In Pa
angel-jd1 replied to stef-the-kicking-cuty's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
Steff- YMCA does gluten free camps for kids through the GIG (gluten intollerance group). You might want to try to contact that "camp" to see how they do things and how they got set up. I know they have been doing it for a while now. -Jessica -
The first thing that screams out at me is the mcd's shake. CONTAMINATION!!! They use the same equipment to make malts and shakes. Unless you asked them to clean the machine, it was probably contaminated. Also, maybe you are having some issues with dairy!?! Many people do and get the same type of symptoms as when they get "glutened". You might start...

ARCHIVED Great Fried Chicken & Cod Dejonghe Recipes
angel-jd1 replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I had tried making those nuggets with the potato chips. I really didn't care for them much. They tasted "ok". They were just way too much work for what came out. I wouldn't waste my time making them again. Just my opinion. However, I bet it would make a good coating for the fish you suggested. -Jessica -
To me, any situation where you can mention celiac disease creates awareness. Awareness of the disease is what we need more of. I'm not sure HOW it could be negative to create awareness for us as a group. Talk about it, spread the word, lay out the brochures if you can't talk directly to the people. -Jessica

There are over 200 symptoms associated with celiac. Muscle and joint aches and pains are among those. Possibly you are still getting some gluten. You could post a list of your diet here lately (including brand names) and people could check it over for possible issues. That always seems to help people out a lot. As far as the diagnosis part goes,...

ARCHIVED Help I Have No Idea What's Causing Symtoms
angel-jd1 replied to terryjean's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Have you checked the gluten free status on both meds? Could also just be your body adjusting to the change in medications, and not necessarily a gluten reaction. Have you talked with your doctor? -Jessica -
ARCHIVED What Makes Reeses Pb Cups Non-gf?
angel-jd1 replied to Donna F's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I found some small heart shaped reeses pb at valentines day that had wheat flour in them. They were wrapped in the foil, not the plastic. Just teaches us that we ALWAYS need to read labels!! Hershey is a company where I feel very confident reading their labels and knowing if I can have the food. -Jessica -

The celiac sprue association also will mail you phamplets for free. You could always make your own phamplet with information that YOU think is important to know about celiac disease. ...
