  1. Now you have me curious too. We've been using great value tea bags and buying mcd's sweet tea and my gluten-free stepdaughter hasn't complained so I am assuming that they are ok.

    Quick Question

    Yeah, some of it is pricey. I have found a lot of gluten-free stuff at walmart, their great value brand, which has been helpful since we are limited at the stores near us. Another walmart about a half hour away even has gluten-free pasta. It's a little more, but when I make pasta, I only make what my gluten-free stepdaughter will eat and the rest of us...
  3. Well, not so much issues per say, but my stepdaughter is finally here and I know I glutened her, but she has had no reaction to it. I am thankful she didn't, but I am wondering at the levels of being glutened and how severe reactions can be. She has also been eating TB tacos regularly which are apparently something that could have gluten in them or do have...
  4. Thanks for the recipe. I saved it and plan on trying it on our next menu. I make my own non-traditional version of enchiladas and will have to modify it anyway, so I think instead of modifying that, I am just going to find a new one that is gluten-free we can enjoy... this might be it!
  5. Stepdaughter has been here for a few days and is already gone to church camp. Her dad went with her to make sre she can get to the right gluten-free foods etc. I think we did ok with her meals while she was home though. She eats buddig lunch meat and block cheese and lays potato chips for lunch, which she seems happy about and is what she eats at her mom...
  6. Thanks for all the replies. Looks to me like based on the list TB provides she can "safely" have tostadas or the beans and cheese. Many of the local TB's near us don't even have tostadas anymore... and as far as we are concerned it is now off limits. I even showed their information to my stepdaughter so she could see for herself. She always got a #8 which...
  7. I am surprised the meat has gluten in it, as my stepdaughter supposedly did research and found that the tacos are safe to eat and has eaten them. In fact, she ate them on her way to our house and hasn't seemed to have any adverse reaction that I am aware of. I kind of wondered though because my husband LOVES the TB meat seasoning packets in the store and...
  8. We eat pasta at least once a week, because it is cheap and easy to make and just an all around simple meal for us. It isn't that big of a deal to make her's separate, esp since she eats so little of it.
  9. I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I was told Taco Bell has gluten-free items, and that things like tacos were ok... that is what my gluten-free sd gets. But when I was at the store and looked at Taco Bell taco seasoning for meat, it is def not something we can use... so do they use something different at the restaurant? Or is the meat not safe...
  10. So my husband's daughter has been diagnosed and some of you may have seen some of my posts here... well, she is with us now and of course, this is a learning process for us. We weren't with her when she was diagnosed, nor did we go to the dietician with her and her mom/stepdad (they live in Virginia, we are in IL) so my husband has only got what his ex has...
  11. I love Jennie-O turkey dogs. That is what I always buy now and they have gluten-free turkey dogs and hamburgers (love their hamburgers too!) Open Original Shared Link Do you have a listing of JENNIE-O TURKEY STORE
  12. Awesome, because we actually have this on hand and I wanted to make a roast when my stepdaughter is here.
  13. These products are ideal for recipes requiring Beef Stock. Use in place of bouillon cubes, bouillon granules or canned broths. USDA inspected meat fats and just the right amount of seasonings instantly adds delicious homemade beef flavor to all foods. Open a container, add to water or add directly to foods as you are cooking and stir. INGREDIENTS:...
  14. So I have been researching and adding things to my blog, which has a gluten-free tag to keep all the gluten-free posts together. Open Original Shared Link (look for the gluten-free tag) I read two books last night (kid books) and posted some information from them that I wanted to keep. And, I posted some links. Nothing else new at this point...
  15. As I've mentioned previously, my gluten-free stepdaughter will be coming for her summer visit so we are getting the pantry/fridge/kitchen cleaned up and organized etc. She will be here for a month or so. Now, while she is not here, we like to eat our share of homemade bread/pasta so there is no shortage of flour in our home. I keep some in the paper package...
  16. Thanks! I think we might get a couple of cards if ppl think they are helpful.
  17. Looks like Holiday World wins so far as being the most gluten-free friendly park near us. That's actually a good thing since that has become our yearly family vacation spot with my inlaws. I bookmarked their food/restaurant page for future reference. Looks like Cedar Point, otoh, has no gluten-free food.
  18. I saw this mentioned in another thread and wondered what it is? Also, for those of you who are parents of a gluten-free kid, how do you handle sleepovers when your child goes to a friend's house? I know my stepdaughter mentioned spending the night at her friend's house and when I asked her what she ate, all she mentioned were some chips and some popcorn...
  19. I Have a 6 year old daughter with celiac disease and it is very overwhelming at first. i want to reassure you it ges easier.gluten has to be ingested. so you dont have to worry about shampoo because at 14 I dont think your step daughter will put it in her mouth but be concerned with envelopes, stamps, anything with adhesive. As far as putting the whole family on a gluten free diet that is so expen

  20. I wanted to bump this up and see if there were any updates. We are taking my stepdaughter to Chicago in Aug to see Wicked (the musical) and would like to be able to feed her while there. We'll be gone two days and I was hoping to find some kid-friendly places she might be interested in eating at. She's 14, but usually pretty picky. Thanks!
  21. Nope. No Meijer's close by. I have started looking for gluten-free products at my local stores. There isn't much, but there is some.
  22. If the spring weather hasn
  23. Is it going to be safe for my stepdaughter to use our microwave since it has been used previously with food that had gluten in it? Would it have to be cleaned after every use if something with gluten is heated in it before she could use it? Or can she even use it at all?
  24. Yup! I am a Michelle. My 5th grade year we had FIVE Michelle's in my class, so I guess it has been a pretty popular name!
  25. Hi, we live in Paris, IL... right near the Indiana state line. Our town is small so I really don't anticipate there being anything LOCAL to us, but was hoping maybe there would be something in Terre Haute, IN, Charleston, IL, Mattoon, IL or even Champaign, IL. The further away the less we could attend but something is better than nothing.
