    I would add 2.5 tsp xanthan gum in with the dry ingredients. Use the Bob's mix-if you like it...-cup for cup for the flour. Don't over mix it either.

    I found this at Fred Meyer and Safeway (better price at Freddy's), bought it, love it!! Vitasoy df/gluten-free peppermint chocolate soy "beverage" For those of you who love their peppermint hot chocolate, this stuff is AMAZING and my dd hasn't asked to go to Starbucks since I bought it I also heated it, frothed it and added 2 shots of espresso to it at...

    I found a gravy pkt at Fred Meyer (health food section) and at New Seasons (local grocery store)-not sure if it's new, but boy is it yummy!!! 99 cents and you add it to your turkey drippings (or water, or whatever)-it says 1 pkt per cup of liquid, but with all the flavor of the turkey drippings, I probably used 3 cups of stock and another cup or so of water...

    Here's my recipe for mac and cheese, my dd actually asked for it this morning for dinner tonight-whenever I ask her what she'd like for dinner, she asks me to make my "famous homemade macaroni and cheese" To preface, I'm not much of a measurer, I also try different cheeses-I usually just dump stuff in until it's the consistancy and flavor I want.....

    We live in the Portland OR/Vancouver WA area and we have a gluten-free store: lingonberriesmarket.com They try to keep their costs below Whole Foods, I love it-you don't have to think about anything (as long as it's just a gluten allergy)

    I have one of each. My dd was able (thank God) to test into kindergarten at age 4-she also missed the cutoff by a bit, but was so ready to start school that there was no question for us (she tested into 2nd grade!!). Our ds is only 3 right now and has an August birthday. Since going gluten-free, he's had an enormous growth spurt and went from an almost...

    I made one last year-did all the layers in a big bowl, so the cake was dome shaped, it looked cool-it didn't have any cake in it, just ice cream and toppings--it was a replica of Red Robin's mile high mud pie. I now have one of those Betty Crocker dome cake/ice cream cake molds, but I haven't used it yet.

    I use the Libby's pumpkin pie recipe with my gluten-free crust. Other's have used gingersnaps as the crust for a pumpkin pie, which I might try this year. For the most part, my family has been very supportive. I understand that it's hard for anyone who doesn't have it or doesn't live with it (with their kids) on a daily basis really can't get it. The...

    It's your responsibility as a parent to make sure your kids are safe--especially young kids who don't fully understand. My 4yo dd might have gotten it then, but my son won't--then if it's 24hrs later, they don't correlate why they feel sick now if they ate something yesterday....

    I thought this might be fun-instead of wondering the day after, what to do with all the leftovers, I wanted to get some ideas of creative ways to use all that food, besides the turkey sandwiches for days We had our 1st "Thanksgiving" last weekend and I ended up with 4c extra sweetened, spiced sweet potatoes. I knew no one would eat them, so I made...

    Open Original Shared Link It's very forgiving with using different flours. I use my own gluten-free blend to replace all the listed flours except for the cornstarch and flax. I don't like the bean flours. I've never had a batch turn out badly.

    I would take over some information on the perils of untreated Celiac disease (and if they keep poisoning him-it's untreated) and calmly tell them that you can't take any more chances when it comes to your children's health, and what they are doing is harming him. You tell them that if they have any questions at all, you'd be happy to sit with them and help...

    I use Lorka's gluten-free flax bread, from recipezaar. Rise and bake in muffin tins.
  14. celiac-mommy
    We've used that brand, the Leader brand and the Motrin brand with no problems

    I use BioChem 100% Raw Foods and Whey vanilla protein powder. It tastes really good, I use it as my recovery drink. I also mix it into my ds's yogurt since we have a hard time getting protein in him.

    I made something similar to this this weekend, and I used crushed gingersnaps mixed with a little melted butter as the topping-it was stellar!!

    That fat free oatmeal cookie crust looks really good!! Thanks!

    Here are 2 I found-haven't tried but got good reviews (obviously sub gluten-free bread on the 1st one, 2nd one is gluten-free...) Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link

    Thanks for all your yummy recipes! You're an amazing woman, you seem to manage it all in stride-your family is very lucky! I have a really good snickerdoodle recipe if you want it, you can PM me. They're my favorite besides the chocolate chip

    That sounds amazing!!!

    We always have scallop potatoes and homemade coleslaw with ham.

    I am doing Thanksgiving this year, my 1st totally gluten-free holiday. I have been pouring over cookbooks and this is what I've come up with so far: roasted turkey-stuffed with celery, carrots, garlic(for flavor), turkey gravy made with cornstarch stuffing-cooked outside the bird, made the day before (gluten-free bread and cornbread) Open Original Shared...

    We came home from work, had a Halloween themed dinner (full of protein and fiber to fill them up ) and left to trick-or-treat at about 645. They lasted about an hour and a half. We came home and dumped all the candy out on the table to separate. They ended up getting to "keep" about 3/4ths of it, which surprised me. The candy of the year in our neighborhood...

    I made individual beef and bean pot pies last night for dinner (w/jack-o-lantern faces cut out ) and I like to do only a top crust to save some calories. The filling is already cooked, so basically you're just heating through and browning the crust, so it ends up baking at 350-375 for 25-30 minutes. If I do bottom crusts too, I bake a little longer and...

    not all hay is wheat. I use the term "hay" but it can be straw, which I've heard is usually wheat. It depends on the farm. I just call and ask what kind of hay or straw they use in their bales, if it's wheat, we don't go. Most of them here (Portland OR) use wheat. The dust gets into your nasal passages and mouth when you breath, you swallow and it gets...
