Colleen, Are you in the Vancouver School District?? -
ARCHIVED Lachoy Teryaki Sauce
celiac-mommy replied to buffettbride's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
We use the Premier Japan Teriyaki sauce. Will use the LaChoy if desparate. The PJ one is on the spendy side but it's REALLY thick, so I dilute it before I add it to the stir fry (or whatever). It ends up lasting longer than the cheaper brands. -
ARCHIVED Nasty Oats
celiac-mommy replied to imsohungry's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I buy the BRM oats because they're substantially cheaper here than the others--(5-6$$ vs 12-15$$!!), I eat them every day and like them a lot, but I bake them so they're really well done... here's the recipe I use. I actually divide it into 2 bowls instead of 4, it's really hearty. I make them the night before and they reheat really well (you can also... -
I made this last night, it was so good! I tried it out on my co-workers this morning and everyone loved it! Ingredients Nonstick cooking spray 1-1/4 c Pamela's baking mix (see note at bottom) 1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel/zest 3/4 cup granulated sugar 3 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/...

ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed 15 Mo
celiac-mommy replied to zenmama's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I think so. Like I said, I knew nothing different. Everything happened so fast, I didn't know there were any other options. I just wanted her to get better and I felt we were getting fantastic care, so I went along with it and only researched Celiac Disease. Everything I read said the biospy was the only confirmation, that was how it was truly diagnosed... -
We always ask for an omlette (dd likes just cheese) in a clean pan, not put on the grill. I always specify the allergy, explain as easily as I can to make them understand and scare them-just a little on how sick she gets. We always ask for a side of fruit instead of the other sides. I don't trust the hashbrowns anywhere. If we're trying a new place, I...

I got all my weight lifting info from the Mens Health magazine website, if you search the 'abs diet' on that website, it should bring up the workout info--it's for women too. It has a breakdown with pictures for each day of the week. I usually do it 3x week. If you're interested and can't find it, let me know and I'll see what I can find.

ARCHIVED Lasagna Noodles
celiac-mommy replied to celiac-mommy's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Thanks everyone! I'm going to make it tonight and try my recipe with the extra 1/2 cup water, I always add extra sauce, so hopefully I'll be OK. You're all the best! I REALLY appreciate all of you, every day! -
I want to make lasagna tomorrow. I have a great recipe, but long for the days I could use no boil noodles. Can I do this with the tinkyada (sp?) noodles? Has anyone tried this? I love lasagna but hate boiling the noodles.....

ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed 15 Mo
celiac-mommy replied to zenmama's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I understand how you feel. 2 of the places I work in the hospital is in surgery and the endoscopy lab. I see adults daily having this same procedure, so I thought I was prepared for watching my DD go thru it. I have to say, NOTHING could have prepared me for what I saw. They warned me once they started the meds "in about 10 seconds she's not going to... -
ARCHIVED Help With Breakfast Please!
celiac-mommy replied to blondebombshell's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Fruit and a protein--Yogurt, string cheese, LARA bars, nuts, gluten-free granola, gluten-free oatmeal if you have time... You also don't have to stick with just 'breakfast' foods. Right after a workout I like banana with PB, ham rolled up with a piece of cheese and deli mustard, 1/2 sandwich Hope this gives you a start. -
ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed 15 Mo
celiac-mommy replied to zenmama's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Hi! Welcome! If you're going back in April for the biopsy, she can't be off gluten--the test results won't be accurate, epecially after that much time. Do you know why they want to wait that long? When our daughter was diagnosed (age 4) it was a whirlwind of appts, I didn't know which end was which, but she had the positive blood test results and then... -
ARCHIVED The Dry Muffin Dilemma
celiac-mommy replied to andanin's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I would try maybe adding an extra egg and sub oil for the butter. I always use oil in all of my muffins and cakes. -
No Problem!! I love to cook, I collect cookbooks and I'm always trying out new things. Baking is really my thing and it's been a little difficult to try to create these recipes and make them taste like their gluten-filled counterpart but also be healthy. Lately things have been working out pretty well-I guess lots and lots and lots and lots of practice...

I made the broccoli dredged chicken nuggets. WOW! They were fantastic, I had everyone try to guess what was in it, No one could. My 2y/o son who eats nothing let alone a vegetable ate one without spitting it out claiming "I no like that!" DD and DH were fighting over the leftovers. Regarding the baked oatmeal recipe--I'm having girlfriends over for breakfast...

Took me a while to type it out but here ya go! Baked oatmeal (not from the book, but made it this morning-super good-I ate 3 of the 4-breakfast, lunch and snack, DD devoured it!) Cooking spray 1 c gluten-free oats

I'm on call tonight, so I probably won't get a chance till tomorrow--I'll try to put some stuff together and get back to you tomorrow.

In a giant bowl, I mix 1 container of mixed nuts from costco--and everything else I add is UNsalted, couple handfuls of mini-marshmallows, pkg each regular and peanut m&m's, honey roasted soynuts, sunflower seeds and a pkg of 'just fruits' mixed fruit, craisins. It makes a ton, I store it in a large cereal container.

As far as I can research back, I'm Irish nearly 100% (I guess I'm considered 'black Irish' or so I'm told...dad's side. Mom is a freckled redhead), DH is English and French. We haven't done the gene testing, so we don't know who donated to our DD.

ARCHIVED Can Not Stop Gaining Weight!
celiac-mommy replied to b91hd7fjk's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I like to hear about other's stories, how they got to where they are now. Mine started when I was hitting puberty ~12y/o. I have a brother and sister who could eat whatever they want and stay abnormally skinny. I was always compared to them. The question was often asked "Don't you wish you could look like your sister, don't you wish you could be as thin... -
ARCHIVED Where Do People Buy Their gluten-free Flours From?
celiac-mommy replied to chlobo's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I buy most of my stuff by the case at amazon. It's free shipping over $25. It's cheaper overall if you buy it by the case. I also check prices online at Bob's Redmill, if I choose to have it sent to me, shipping isn't much because I live within 10 miles and you get a certain percentage off if you buy by the case--I only do this with products I know and... -
I bought that book too. If you're going to cook dinner with a recipe anyway, it doesn't take any extra time to modify a recipe (from my experience with it). My kids love it and everything works out great--I guess the only extra step I add is adding xanthan gum as necessary in the baked goods, otherwise I just straight across sub my gluten-free flour mix...

ARCHIVED Can Not Stop Gaining Weight!
celiac-mommy replied to b91hd7fjk's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I'm sorry if I misunderstood. Although I'm in cardiovascular services, I have done extensive training in nutrition and weight loss. I don't have a degree in it--wanted to but I my DH says I make too much $$ doing what I do and I do like it. I've worked with a lot of women with their health and nutrition so I feel really comfortable with my 'methods' but... -
ARCHIVED Baking Flour?
celiac-mommy replied to Electra's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have found that I can't use the Pamela's straight across for flour in recipes because of all the other stuff in it--baking powder, soda, xanthan gum, etc... I do use it (and LOVE it) for pancakes, muffins, etc... Their website has some fantastic recipes on it--biscotti YUMMMMM!!! The chocolate chip recipe on the side of the package did not turn out right...
