    ARCHIVED Alzheimer's

    purple replied to purple's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Wow, thanks guys! I am mailing off all the info I have to them today and I will include all these web sites and info too. They will appreciate it so much. The couple got married when she was 16 and now she's 55. He was a college professor and had to retire a few years early to take care of her, she was a nurse. I know that she was addicted to pop out of the...

    This is not a complaint! Learning to cook gluten-free was hard but now adding vegan to that is 100 times harder. The good thing besides eating healthier and trying new foods is I am learning how to cook things I have never made before and eat them (I am picky). Today I made West African Chicken(minus the chicken) and Groundnut Stew. I found out groundnuts...

    I use Carol's flour blend: 1 1/2 cups sorghum 1 1/2 cups potato or corn starch 1 cup tapioca flour In Carol's Quick and easy book she lists the subs for corn: arrowroot, potato starch, amaranth starch. Subs for potato starch: arrowroot, cornstarch, lotus root starch, or amaranth starch. This is my favorite flour mix and I make muffins very often...

    Sides: jar or homemade salsa guacamole (homemade is the best, don't know if premade is safe) corn enchiladas rice and beans fruit tray layered bean dip cookies refried beans Hard corn shells if you don't want to fry the soft ones Canned nacho cheese is not safe You could just fix all the toppings and serve with lots of chips...

    You can buy extra milk and freeze it in containers if you have a big freezer. We live an hour from the nearest big store. Our milk in our tiny town costs over a dollar more per gallon(1/2 gal here is the same price as a whole gallon at Walmart). So I learned to freeze milk. Write the freezing day with the expiration day on freezer tape so you know how many...

    My suggestion to add to all the other good ones above is to let her help in the kitchen as much as she wants to. She can learn at a young age how to make gluten-free foods. Give her several choices each time so she can be in charge of what is to be made. Kids love the kitchen and helping. I used to have a daycare and the kids loved helping. Also let her choose...

    I made lasagna last week and never had a problem. Here is what "I think" I did. Filled a large, flat, nonstick,frying pan about 1/2 full of water(adding another cup or 2 if it needed it). Added a few drops of olive oil. When water boiled I put in 3 noodles criss cross like a triangle. Set timer for 15 mins. Half way thru I rotated them so the bottom one...

    Now Now...What about your chocolate stash? I have one too! (I thought I just read it on another post...ha ha) My dd had a stash in college last year. I remember one time she walked out of the store b/c there was nothing to buy She hates to cook and is better now at buying something to eat-fruit, tortilla chips and a tomato...hmmm.

    Be sure to check out the breakfast brownies @ Open Original Shared Link She lists lots of alternatives and they can be dairy and egg free too.

    I think I remember reading someone's post not to trust Quaker, possibly cross contamination at the factory. Try another brand to see if you react to them.

    I guess my splurge is to not run out of coconut oil so I can pop organic popcorn in it. Love to crunch a bowl full several nights a week while I read. I gotta have several bags of chocolate chips in the cupboard for baking cookies and muffins...my favorite thing to do. And of course you have to have all those flours to go with them too.

    I made these today, taste just like a salted nut roll. The original recipe is from Pillsbury Simple Summer Recipes. I converted it to be gluten-free (my notes included). Tweak it all you want to if needed. Salted Peanut Chews Crust 1 1/2 cups Pillsbury Best All Purpose or Unbleached Flour (I used Carol's gluten-free flour blend noted below...

    Open Original Shared Link Has a recipe for breakfast brownies (not the choc kind) that are amazing! Taste like gingerbread or apple crisp. I put chopped nuts, seeds and dates in them. You can put anything in them. Coconut, chips, raisins, macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. They can be made dairy and egg free. There are healthy flour...
