  1. Ditto. I read about a test "they" did to see which chocolate was the one better for you and dove dark was high on the list, even higher than some of the bars at the health food store. But who knows how accurate it was. "They" only tested like 10 kinds.
  2. I found one today I think you would be interested in. I posted it : chocolate chip cookies. Really good, good for you and easy! Here's the link: Open Original Shared Link I skimmed through some agave nectar web sites.

  4. Open Original Shared Link Awesome Chocolate Chip Cookies I just baked a small sample of these cookies. So easy. Only 7 ingredients including the almonds. I ground up some almonds in the blender to make the flour. You will have more flour than nuts so grind less than the amount called for, then remeasure. Didn't have any df chips so I used some...

  7. High Fructose Corn Syrup, HFCS, can make you gain weight. Its in everything. Like ketchup, syrup, BBQ sauce, other sauces, drinks, soda pop, some canned goods- tomatoes, etc. See if you are consuming any. Diet pop can make you can weight too.

    Forgive me , I am not very good with computers. So my dd helped me find a photo and its over in my control panel displayed in the box. How do I get it where I can see it next to my posts? Plz make it real simple...step-by-step. Another dumb? What does IMO stand for?? I also am having a problem with having to scroll to every post instead of clicking...
  10. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with everyone. I studied some natural/alternative methods last year and so I know some (only a little compared to your education ) of what you are talking about. You always have the correct answer from what I have read. I really enjoy and learn alot from your posts. I am glad to hear you feel so much better!
  11. You can find some no-tomato substitute recipes (and lots of others) @ Open Original Shared Link or Open Original Shared Link click on recipes...then sauces Fun place to spend an hour
  12. My dd has not been tested for Celiac but she is gluten intolerant. She is 5'3 1/2". I am 5' 3". Dh is 5'4", his mother was maybe 5'. Both of them, dd and grandma, have alot of symptoms. Grandpa is about 5' 9" and no symptoms. Slight change of subject matter here...my dd(19) is almost gluten-free since Feb. and her chest grew one size bigger . Hope for you...
  13. I remember reading somewhere that whole wheat bread has more gluten in it than regular white bread. I also read that your body reacts the same way. Think of it likes fleas on a dog...you try to kill them right away. Compared to fleas on the carpet...you smoke bomb the whole house. Both cause harm/trouble. The dogs can get worse, spreads to other animals...
  14. Scan the baking/cooking section and look for threads that say quick, fast, easy, etc. refried beans on corn tortillas or with chips crock pot of chili, beans and ham spaghetti with meat sauce instead of meatballs or use shredded chicken tacos/nachos trail mix...make your own and put in baggies to go peanut butter/celery or apples nuts and seeds for...
  15. 47???
  16. Someone posted that they ate the really dark chocolate and so only needed to eat a little to curb their chocolate craving. You could chop it up for cookies Just be sure its "allergy free". Bake a bunch of cookies and freeze them. You know you can have them anytime without having to bake often. Lots of good recipes on the "baking/cooking" section. If you...
  17. FYI, I tried this casserole in the crock pot today. I used brown rice, about 20 oz. of canned flavored tomatoes, pureed a bit. Set it on 350 and it was done in about 2 hours. Watch it b/c it soaked up the liquid just like it does in the oven. Adding cheese after serving. Oh, I added some already cooked chicken when the rice was done. Easy if you if don't...
  18. What all is she allergic to? I have a good applesauce oatmeal muffin recipe if you can't get yours to work. I can post if you want it. Another good recipe I tried recently called Breakfast Brownies, list to use 1 1/3 cups oats or to try 1 cup Quinoa flakes. They are so good. They taste like gingerbread cookie and my hubby said applecrisp. You can add any...
  19. Can you tell we want your beautiful baby girl to have a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

  22. Can she have chocolate as in baking cocoa? I just altered a recipe I have and tried it. So I will rename it. Its only 1/2 recipe Chocolate Banana Cupcakes 1/4 tapioca flour (same as starch) 1/4 cup potato starch 1/2 T. ground flax 1/4 cup sugar 2 T. baking cocoa 1/4 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. baking soda 1/8 tsp. xanthan gum...
  23. Here is the web site for the frosting: Open Original Shared Link It has alot of substitution recipes that might help. There is a carrot cake that doesn't have flour(weird?) but it has 1/2 cup honey you may need to sub and it has 1 1/2 cups apple juice- you could sub Welch's white grape juice. It has raisins. If you find a recipe you can...
  24. I don't bake much with coconut flour or almond flour but you could try it. Also you might try just the the starches. There is a book out by Ryberg (sp?) that only uses starches in the recipes. Experiment with 1/2 a recipe.
  25. Replacement...you can cut up drinking straws, they even make colored ones if you can find them. Also look for the ones that don't bend on the end or you may have to cut it off. Try the $ store too. Some are bigger than others so keep your eye out, the smaller ones will be harder to push the string through. We used to use them at my day care and they don't...
