ARCHIVED Slow Cooker Recipes
chocolatelover replied to isiskingdom's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
On that chicken recipe...how high should the liquid come up the chicken, and do you do it on high or low? How long? I just happen to have a whole chicken sitting in my fridge waiting to be cooked, and I'm working all day tomorrow--what a great find today! Thanks! -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Graham Crackers A Bust
chocolatelover replied to buffettbride's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
If you are into baking, here is a really good recipe that I found (I think it's from Rebecca Reilly's cookbook). My kids loved them. We ate what we wanted and then put the rest in the freezer and they did great. Graham Crackers 1 cup gluten free flour mix 1 cup brown rice flour ... -
ARCHIVED Why Is gluten-free Food So Freaking Expensive?

I would love a recipe for granola as well--we miss it terribly in our family! -
How do you get tested for either candida or heavy metal toxicity?

I have heard of the Paleo diet but have never researched it. What exactly is it? I can't eat sweet potatoes for another several weeks on this diet yet. Potatoes don't seem to give me any more problems than I have when I don't eat them. I have also thought that perhaps candida could be a problem, and it was just suggested to me tonight to get tested...

Hi there...havean't been on in a long time, but here is my story...I was diagnosed with lymphocytic colitis in January (causes chronic diarrhea, some say it's the large intestine version of celiac), diagnosed with celiac in April. Several weeks ago I did a blood test to test for about 150 foods and cemicals to see what I react to. I have been found to have...

ARCHIVED Anyone Ever Get Hives From Gluten?
chocolatelover replied to chocolatelover's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
It's now about 24 hours later...Benadryl helped the itching and she was ok today. No more spots and no more itching, but now she has a sore throat. Maybe it is allergies to something--I know grasses are very high right now. I'm thinking it's time to get her allergy tested! Thanks for your responses. -

ARCHIVED Anyone Ever Get Hives From Gluten?
chocolatelover posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm wondering if anyone has ever gotten hives from a glutening. My 13 y.o. daughter developed very red itchy hives this afternoon and we're wondering if it could have been from an accidental glutening. She is gluten intolerant and at some Dibbs this afternoon, which she hasn't had since being off gluten. My son and I also ate some (he is also gluten intolerant... -
We like 2 breads in our family. One is the Gluten Free Pantry Favorite Sandwich Bread--it's the closest thing we've found to real white bread. I also make foccacia out of it that is absolutely delicious. The other mix I use is Pamela's Wheat Free Bread Mix, which is my daughter's favorite. They are both very easy to make. I use my kitchenaid and just...

ARCHIVED Daily Eating Habits

Skinnyminny--I'd love to have you post your recipe again! I bake a fair amount and have found some really good mixes, but they're just so darn expensive! Thanks, CL -
ARCHIVED A Used Breadmaker
chocolatelover replied to isiskingdom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Could you just order a new basket for it? Though I stopped using mine because I, too, figured out that my bread comes out better in the oven--didn't like the huge hole the paddle made, and since it doesn't have to knead a second time, it's just as easy to mix it up in the kitchenaid and throw it in a pan in the oven. -
ARCHIVED Come Out, Come Out And Show Yourself
chocolatelover replied to pedro's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I don't even remember how I found this site...I just know that it's been such a blessing to me. I lurked for a long time, and then when I finally got up the nerve, it seemed like every time I posted I killed the topic! I still spend a fair amount of time lurking, but I really try to share my experiences, thoughts and recipes, etc. Anything to make... -
ARCHIVED Raspberry Sauce?

This works every time: Raspberry Coulis 10 ounces raspberries in syrup -- (1 package) 2 Tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice Pur -
Isiskingdom, I noticed you are eating cocoa pebbles sometimes. I have read here on this site that they are no longer gluten free, so be sure you double check the package to make sure before you buy them again! Also, Thai Kitchen bowls can be found in any grocery store. Good luck and happy anniversary! CL

Gluten Free Hair Products
chocolatelover replied to smiley1nyc's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have always read that all of that does matter--the shampoos, conditioners, cosmetics, lotions, etc. Even though you are not ingesting it directly, it is still on your hands, which then inadvertantly go into your mouth, touch your face, make your food...so there is still a good chance that you will accidentally ingest some. It may not be a huge amount... -

ARCHIVED I Am Soooo New - What Makes Up A gluten-free Flour Blend
chocolatelover replied to jmd3's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Here are the ones that I use and that I have found to be good...they are by that famous gluten free baker. Note that potato flour and potato starch are different things, but that tapioca starch and tapioca flour are the same thing. Confusing. Also, I hear (have never tried this one myself) that you can't baking gluten free without xanthan gum--it just... -
ARCHIVED Kid Friendly Recipes
chocolatelover replied to chocolatelover's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
That's what I use for the foccacio with the gluten-free pantry bread mix. My dishes are round, but they're the perfect size for something like a hamburger bun. I don't know how they would work for hot dogs, though--do you think they're skinny enough? -
ARCHIVED Kid Friendly Recipes
chocolatelover replied to chocolatelover's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I didn't even know they made french bread pans. That would certianly make things easier, especially since this particular dough is so sticky. I've heard the gluten-free Pantry one is good, but at $5.75/box, I haven't yet tried it. Don't know about the hot dog pans, but there is a thread somewhere here about someone just making hot dog rolls. -
ARCHIVED Bread Maker Queston
chocolatelover replied to Joanne11's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have two things that I do...first, after it's done mixing in the bread maker, just take the paddle out with a wet or Pam-sprayed hand. It doesn't need to knead because you're not developing the gluten like in regular bread, so it doesn't matter if you then take the paddle out. The other thing I've started doing is just using my Kitchenaid to mix the...
