Aizlynn posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Happy Easter! Well this year we are opting to eat at home instead of out (thanks to my family understanding gluten-free) So what is everyone making??? My mom just realized the ham she bought at Safeway has wheat starch (she was upset for me) So any ideas for a scrumptious breakfast? I would love to make a quiche but don't have a crust recipie for... -

ARCHIVED Multi Vitamin

If you find you can't take that, I have use the Solary brand with no reaction, it is a bit expensive, but found that it's composition doesnt bother my tummy either. -
ARCHIVED Reading Labels
Aizlynn replied to hathor's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I agree, it is a very confusing issue, but what upset me was this morning I was eating my "Wheat Free" waffles from trader joes, and on the back it says made on equipment containing wheat!! I have always prided myself by eating healthy by shopping at TJ's but I am finding more and more that their products are always made on shared equipment. just a note... -
ARCHIVED Arrowhead Pancake Mix
Aizlynn replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Well none of them are like the real thing anymore, especially if you can't mix them with cow's milk. I Have tried a few diff kinds, and found that rice milk and adding maple syrup and a bit of vanilla extract to any batter just makes it taste better even my kid will eat it! -
ARCHIVED Weight Loss Suppourt Thread (shannonl) And Any Others Who Want To Join
Aizlynn replied to a topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hello, I agree that since I have gone gluten free in the past few months I have actually GAINED weight, which stinks cause I thought I was eating healthier. I am not a doctor, but I have taken over 3 1/2 years to loose 100lbs (went from 120 to 220, down to 110lbs) I stressed constantly over the amount I weighed daily, and that I feel now was not the best... -

I seem to do fine when I make a martini with absolute vodka, but am worried about the olive because of viniger...are those olives safe? -
ARCHIVED Favorite Sandwich Fillings With Laurie's Amazing Bread
Aizlynn replied to SandraNinTO's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
so the regular slice genoa hard salami you get in every grocery store is not gluten-free??? I must have missed that...it sure explains alot, and I thought spending 2 hours in the store reading labels did the trick! it's always a learning curve -
ARCHIVED Sun Neen Figh Lok! - Happy New Year!
Aizlynn replied to GeoffCJ's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Just wondering what recipies everyone uses for their rice paper wrappers, I am still experimenting. Though I found that deep frying them like lumpia or egg rolls does not produce the same result, they are very greasy. but I still love the taste of the wrapper. any recipies? -
ARCHIVED Chinese New Year's Menu
Aizlynn replied to miles2go's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Yes, a wonderful meal, I made rice paper spring rolls, but do soooo much miss won ton wrappers, how did you make those? and also how did you make the buns? There was an earlier thread from "Men in Trees" where a character made gluten free dumplings...oh please do tell! -
ARCHIVED I'm Panicking About Spending 2 Months In A Non-gluten-free Household
Aizlynn replied to mesmerize's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Well I am in similar situation. I just end up cooking my own stuff, or we do a group meal and I check all the lables or share my food. I do not use the toaster etc. It's not fancy, but I went to Costco and got a pack of paper plates and bowls to use. The plates come in handy for chopping food vs using a cutting board. I keep my gluten free bread in a bag... -
ARCHIVED Vitamin Deficiencies?
Aizlynn replied to angel42's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I also take vitamin B-Complex. It helps me with depression and that time of the month. and for some reason, the black circles under my eyes are starting to slowly go away. -
ARCHIVED Rice Paper & Your Asian Market Shopping List

There is a rice wrap at the asian market that has a red rose on it and I have had success with that! and it is soooooooo cheap. -
ARCHIVED Serious Salty Junk Food Craving
Aizlynn replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have found the Terra Chips to be very yummy, and not all of them are potato. They do a combonation of yucca, parsnip, taro etc. I am going to inquire on the gluten part though. I have taken it into my own hands to take items like taro root, parsnips yucca and slice them thin, spice em up, and bake them in the oven. It would be cheap and you would be assured... -
The Great Value Brand of soy sauce at Wal-Mart is also labeld gluten free and taste great! I can only find it at their superstore though, not all of them carry it.

ARCHIVED Chocolate Swirl Cheese Pie
Aizlynn replied to wowzer's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
This will definately be on my valentines day list! has anyone tried to use the Pamelas gluten free cookies crumbled up to make a crust?? sounds like a good idea. -
Silly question, are best foods or kraft mayo's safe to eat? they do not list gluten or wheat but have soybean oil in them? I really don't care about the healthy aspect of fat right now just the taste. I use it all the time for my chicken salads/potato salads. thanks

I saw it too and was wondering how to make it, my mouth started to drool! I want to live in Elmo. The show reminds me of a modern northern exposure. I would assume the recipie (if for real) would be a rice based dumpling, will have to experiment and research the net!

ARCHIVED Gas, Gas, Gas - Is This Celiac's?
Aizlynn replied to laglut's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
This is my favorite side effect from wheat (NOT), when I went to my GI doctor he said that the average person passess gas up to 14 times a day. Maybe we should try getting in the book of records! I do know that when I eat too much brocolli/cabbage/ or just raw veggies I get the musical orchestra too. -
ARCHIVED Random Acts Of Kindness
Aizlynn replied to angel-jd1's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Have you seen the movie "Pay it Forward" great one to watch! A few months ago while going on the weekly work Starbucks run, I went to my coworker to ask if she would like a Starbucks? She had just came back from there, but told me a surprising story. When she went through the drive up window to pay for her order (about 15 cars deep in the morning),... -

Aizlynn replied to Aizlynn's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thank you all for the great comments, just after a week of reading information here I have become much more educated in the daily life and have started to feel less frightened of food I actually visited an asian market today and found many of the flour/tapioca startches/flours at a VERY fair price ($.79 vs $$3.00) and finally found the rice spring roll... -
ARCHIVED Are There Any Good Ricecakes Out There?
Aizlynn replied to darlindeb25's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
After reading the posts in here about Quaker Rice cakes I had to call them on Monday. I called the 1-800 # on the package, and they were very friendly, I asked to speak about the ingrediants, and the gal immediatly asked me if I was referring to Celiac Spru... She explained that while they do not add any gluten products, they are processed, so there is a...
