  1. Last night we had chicken pasta salad with olives, marinated artichoke hearts, onion, celery and broccoli, with italian dressing.
  2. Drink it often. It is my "cure" for a glutened stomach - sears it
  3. Sometimes it is hard to respond to these posts without sounding like a whacko (which I don't think I am - at least one hopes not ) My sister and I are both gluten intolerant (she lost a lot of weight, I gained a lot of weight, she is chamically sensitive, and also reacts negatively to salicylates; I have psoriatic arthritis and more food intolerances...
  4. I just start off with leeks, carrot, celery sauteed in some oil with seasoning - then you can cook the chicken in the water you add so that it gets extra flavour. You could try gluten free noodles instead of rice (either elbow or break up some spaghetti), or you can add other veggies like swiss chard or green beans.
  5. Do you just add water? Or does it require seasoning?
  6. That is a very fitting description for me, although I think I actually have "floppy ligament syndrome" (don't know about the tendons - could be also ) The podiatrist didn't know what the heck I was talking about - this crazy woman who can't hold her foot together I had my foot jammed hard on the brake in a head-on accident and tore the heck out of the...
  7. That is very interesting, Cass. Our dad, who we suspect had celiac disease, was diagnosed with polymyalgia rheumatica and was on prednisone for the last 10-15 years of his life. I saw him infrequently on visits to NZ so did not really know his symptoms, but he told my sister that he felt like he was "walking around on bags of bones." Not a symptom of...
  8. OMG, the very thought of a pound and half of RIPE bananas a day makes me want to barf I am definitely in the no-brown-spots camp when it comes to bananas. The only exception I make is for banana bread, where it doesn't really count anyway. Even the texture of a ripe banana, let alone the sweetness, gets to me. Of course I am a big avocado eater and again...
  9. I can't buy any commercial bulk flour because of either soy or potato starch. I make my own mixes which almost invariably involve sorghum and/or buckwheat, also brown and white rice, tapioca, arrowroot. My favourite is 1 cup sorghum, 1/2 cup brown rice, 1 cup white rice, 1/2 cup tapioca. This is my all purpose flour. I try to buy these flours in bulk...
  10. love2travel, you could make a living writing menus for restaurants Everyone would want to order every dish.
  11. Just washed some baby lettuce from the garden for a salad, and cut some swiss chard - don't know what's going with that yet (maybe a mini white lasagna for two), but have you ever tried boiling enough water to wash your veggies in all the time? What a PITA They keep saying they are going to lift the restriction "soon" What a lot of energy will be saved...
  12. I haven't decided yet (still have time) but one of the dishes is going to be baked fennel with parmesan. Maybe some Italian sausages and pasta with zucchini.
  13. HaHa, you sound like me. Lake Tahoe your summer, New Zealand our summer except I change hemispheres
  14. That's because you don't get any training
  15. I dunno, I think I would head for the Bahamas myself That's practically the Arctic Circle in my book.
  16. Damn! How far north do you live and at what altitude
  17. I think it has a lot to do with the combining with other foods. The egg is just a minuscule amount of the muffin, and may sneak through and not make contact with the intestinal wall, but if you eat it on its own, well, there it is, blam in your digestive system. It can't ignore it.
  18. For those who don't consume nightshades there is a delicious version of this using parsnips instead of potatoes (use a little less cabbage )
  19. Now mole and cooking nonsweet with chocolate is something I've always been afraid to try
  20. Hey, thanks Jess, that sounds great, and thrifty too
  21. I thought I was SO over potatoes, and then you had to go and post this They look and sound awesome
  22. Don't know about tonight, but last night we had a shrimp and mushroom risotto with parmesan and cream.
  23. Shaken, but not stirred !!!

      OMG!! I thought of you today and I am hoping you are all right!! All good wishes, Ginny (IrishHeart)

  24. Just to make matters confusing, my reactions have changed over time. Gluten used to equal diarrhea, bloating, insomnia, vaso-vagal syncope - now it's nausea and retching. Lactose was diarrhea, stomach cramps, gas., - healed from that now. Corn was and still is (not that I eat it) bloating, gas, diarrhea, vaso-vagal syncope. Other intolerances were all...
  25. I want to say thanks for all your helpful thoughts --to me-- and on so many of the posts on the forum. You are an amazing wealth of information and your compassion for others is so obvious. Many blessings to you!! :>)
