ARCHIVED What's For Breakfast Today?
BlessedMommy replied to GlutenFreeManna's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Scrambled eggs, sliced avocado and tomato, and zucchini potato patties with ketchup. I love breakfast and can eat any type of food in the morning. Stir fry, salad, pizza or whatever depending on what mood I'm in. -
The What's For Dinner Tonight Chat
BlessedMommy replied to jess-gf's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Lentil soup (with kale and rainbow quinoa in it for a little variation) and hopefully either homemade bread or pull apart dinner rolls, whichever I get around to making this afternoon. -

Nonstick coating easily gets scratched and any scratches can harbor gluten. -
ARCHIVED How Did You Heal Your Gut? Besides Giving Up Gluten...
BlessedMommy replied to icelandgirl's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'm curious, when people say grain free, do they mean literally grain free, as in eliminating only grains or do they also eliminate seeds like quinoa, amaranth, and buckwheat? -

By zoodles, do you mean zucchini noodles? I do have a spiralizer that makes zucchini pasta. -
The What's For Dinner Tonight Chat
BlessedMommy replied to jess-gf's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Thanks Irish! The zucchini that I got given to me were enormous and the pancake recipe came nowhere near using them up! I will check those out. I used to work in South Florida--I did a 9 month missionary project down in the Florida Keys. While I was there I stayed on Grassy Key, about 6 miles from the town of Marathon. -
The What's For Dinner Tonight Chat
BlessedMommy replied to jess-gf's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I'm making zucchini potato pancakes for breakfast. Yummy and especially great since we just got gifted more zucchini! http://theprudenthomemaker.com/index.php/zucchini-potato-pancakes I use Pamela's Artisan flour blend in place of the flour. Everything else in the recipe is inherently gluten free. -
ARCHIVED Hotel Waffle Makers With gluten-free Waffle Mix?
BlessedMommy replied to SMRI's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have been known to take my personal dedicated gluten free waffle iron with me on road trips. I have this one: Open Original Shared Link It's expensive, but well worth it because it's heavy duty, lightning fast and makes two at a time. Usually for road trips where we're going to be at a hotel, I pack some KIND granola and non-dairy milk and have... -

So are the scrambled eggs at a continental breakfast often safe? I've always avoided them since I wasn't sure. -
ARCHIVED What's In Your Kitchen Kit?
BlessedMommy replied to BlessedMommy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I found something new for my kitchen kit! The store was having a clearance sale on a lot of cookware and I picked up a little mini enamel coated cast iron skillet for $4. It is very cute and small and fits easily into my kitchen kit. It's the perfect size for heating up a small can of chili or for cooking two eggs. We had a church campout this weekend... -

ARCHIVED 4 Months And Stressed Out
BlessedMommy replied to Serielda's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I know where you are coming from, as I try to take care not to overdo rice also. However, cut yourself some slack, you've only been G.F. for 4 months and you're vegetarian on top of it. I'm vegetarian too and I know the extra challenges that come with combining the two. Hang in there! -

ARCHIVED Jif Individual Peanut Butter Cups
BlessedMommy replied to Dianaw's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Looks like they have about the same amount of grams of sugar and they just replaced the hydrogenated oil with palm oil. My favorite peanut butter for home is Krema which is made of only peanuts, but I wanted to find something for my car kit. -
ARCHIVED A Few More Questions Regarding Gluten In Meds/foods
BlessedMommy replied to 3bears2's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Lundberg Farms processes all their products in a dedicated gluten free facility. I use Earth Balance buttery spreads on a regular basis. All of their buttery spreads are gluten free. A quick look at the Earth Balance website products shows that their only products containing gluten are their vegan "cheesy" crackers and macaroni. I see no reason why these... -

ARCHIVED Gluten Sensitivity - Post gluten-free
BlessedMommy replied to jdaily's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi! You are in a great place, I've found this forum to be a real source of support and encouragement. I would encourage you to read the Newbie 101 and make sure that you have a handle on the basics like cross contamination and what ingredients are safe or unsafe. I went gluten free 4 1/2 years ago and just this year I've tightened up my diet in some... -
ARCHIVED Which Recipe Book Would You Recommend
BlessedMommy replied to Zebra007's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Honestly, I mostly get my recipes off places like Google and Pinterest. If I want something in particular, I hunt for it until I find something that sounds good. For example, this weekend I wanted to make a vegetarian waldorf salad with my Beyond Meat chicken free strips, so I did a Google search and found a Pinterest recipe to check out. For my house... -

They weren't open tonight when we went to town, (they close at 8 PM) but I will definitely check sometime when I'm back in town. -
ARCHIVED Jif Individual Peanut Butter Cups
BlessedMommy replied to Dianaw's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Well yay! When I went to the store tonight, I went and looked over in the peanut butter section to see if any options had appeared and Jif has natural peanut butter cups! I did not know that they had that option. So I picked up a pack of them for the road. Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED Glutened Reaction?
BlessedMommy replied to tpchan85's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yes, you do need to eat gluten before being tested, but keep in mind that if you've been gluten free for awhile, your symptoms when reintroducing it may be worse. You should not go overboard and eat gluten at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. One sandwich a day for the 2-3 month period is enough. I was unable to complete my gluten challenge due to an extremely...
