    I am totally amazed at the outpouring from the very depths of everyone's soul with these postings. Crying makes me even sadder. Right now I am laid off from my paraprofessional school job. In over 43 years of working, I have never been fired, laid off, asked to leave or anything like that. I have had this job for almost 14 years but the budget problems...

    :(I have been having the "woes" lately and got into a conversation with a friend about what makes women cry. We came up with lots of "chick" things that make us cry. Example: Sad movies, seeing a baby born, personal verbal attacks, missing someone who is no longer in our lives, watching someone else cry, feeling frustrated, touching commercials, regretting...

    I use these often, mostly with a rice and salmon filling and make up a teriyaki dip to go along. Sometimes I spray a frying pan with some butter flavored Crisco and fry them until they are crispy, other times I eat them fresh. If there are leftovers the next day, I usually fry them. They are delicious and look great. I use them as a meal or when we have...

    I just found out that the Chocolate Emporium in Cleveland not only carry Katz Gluten Free bread, muffins and pizza crusts, but that their chocolate is gluten free and dairy free. Many of their items are nut free. All of their goodies are parve Kosher meaning there is absolutely no dairy in their shop. They use dark chocolate - never milk chocolate. They...

    I used half sunflower butter and half almond butter, 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup dark brown sugar, 1 egg, 1 tsp. vanilla and chopped pecans - maybe there were 9 or 10 that I chopped pretty good. They came out a little sweet but soft. I got 2 trays full. I used a tsp. to measure out the batter and cooked for 9 and 1/2 min. I let them sit for a couple...

    I've actually never tried cooking with coconut milk. Did your fish have a strong coconut flavor? Coconut isn't my favorite flavor so I was wondering.

    Had my favorite "go to" fish meal when I am hurting. Easy MW Lemon Fish. 1 1/2 lb. fish fillets (I defrosted 2 large pieces haddock, 1/2 cup dairy free margarine, 1 TBSP. cornstarch, 1 1/2 TBSP lemon juice. Melt the marg in a MW safe dish and mix in the cornstarch and lemon juice. Add the serving size fish pieces and flip flop them in the sauce and arrange...

    I also have several issues to deal with. I need to eat foods that are gluten free, totally dairy free, no fresh vegetables or fruit, low in acid (no tomato, citrus), easy to digest (no beef), as low in fat as possible. It is absolutely overwhelming to say the least. At 61 I was trying to prepare the foods I had grown up eating and loved. It just wasn...

    I used to buy the Corn bread. It was ok. I like the Katz and the Udi the best. I made wasabi toast over the weekend with our chicken. Basically made a mixture of dairy free Smart Balance margarine with a healthy amount of gluten free wasabi powder, dash of salt and a sprinkle of onion flakes. Generously buttered the Udi bread and put it into the...

    Grilled chicken breasts with a rub of brown sugar and paprika, cooked rice and steamed carrots. Great dipping sauce made with Chun's sweet chili asian marinade mixed with soy sauce and a dash of sesame oil.

    What did you use as a binder? My friend told me she uses leftover mashed potato....

    I just made another huge batch of salmon patties using my recipe above. I am going in for surgery on Wednesday (total knee replacement) and I have been making food for DH to bring to the hospital. They will not provide gluten or dairy free items. My patties are individually wrapped right next to my frozen Katz and Udi bread. All he has to do is grab a...

    That was the first product I purchased when I went gluten free... it was almost enough to send me packing. It is disgusting. If you live near a Sprouts, they carry fresh gluten free pizza. It is a personal size with light sauce, light cheese and 8 minutes in the toaster oven and it is crisp and delicious - only 3.99. Ok... it's not quite Dominoes.....

    My background from the mid 70s has been in teaching cooking and writing about food but as the years went on and I developed lots of health issues I lost my interest in food preparation. Living with a gluten/dairy free diet and adding in lots of other diet restrictions has made my meal planning terrible. About 2 years ago I decided that the only one who...

    I love the Kinninneneck (sp?) pancake flour. I make them up like little silver dollar pancakes. They have a sweet vanilla flavor. I don't even use syrup, but instead I use dairy free margarine and sometimes a little gluten-free blueberry preserves. I even freeze them. Yummo! Warm them up in the mw the next day and they taste just as wonderful.

    I have bought the Udi muffins - the lemon ones and they are good but just too expensive. Last weekend I made up that recipe on the Betty Crocker site where you use the package of brownie mix and the box of chocolate chip cookie mix and drop alternating spoonfuls and bake. I baked for less time and they were still a little dry (next time I will bake for...

    I have been ordering it from the website. I believe they are waiving the shipping fee now which was quite high. They are in the north and I am in Dallas. It is now being carried in Whole Foods I understand although the product is not supposed to be down here until May or June. You can order a sample pack from their website.

    The funny thing is I can't eat the Rudi gluten free bread. I think it has molasses or something that just doesn't sit well. I eat the Katz gluten free bread when I want something sweeter than Udi. I eat Katz for breakfast with sunbutter but use the Udi for sandwiches. Yummo!

    All the Welch's fruit jellies in bags are gluten and dairy free. I pack them in the little snack ziplock bags and keep them in the pantry for a quick grab and go snack.

    I use this type of shrimp often. I love the taste and convenience. I do notice that the shrimp tastes differently depending on where you buy it. Walmart brand is yucky. I have a Tom Thumb and Albertsons and watch for the sales - very good product. I use this shrimp in lots of ways. Sometimes DH will pick up Orange Chicken and rice at Panda Express...

    There are times that I am in pretty rough shape and that is when I turn to babyfood. Yes... babyfood. I buy jars of plain fruits (apples or kiwi), rice cereal that I mix with hot water, jars of simple vegetables and those boxes of little biscuits made from rice. It often only takes a few days to straighten out my system and then I begin with some homemade...

    If you live near a Sprouts store they make a great gluten free pizza. The pizzas are located in the deli area near the cheeses and prepared foods. This pizza is delicious if you cook it right. It has light sauce and some mozzarella cheese (very light). I put it in the toaster oven on bake for 8 minutes I think. When there are just a couple of minutes...

    Because my Vitamin D is low, and the doctor suggested salmon and sardines I have now been able to raise the level 4 points in 2 months. I make salmon patties and eat them either hot, cold between Udi or Katz bread. I take a can of sardines to work and open it and eat the pieces with corn chips... very crunchy and yummy. I make my own granola bars and...

    I have lots of digestive issues including Ulcerative Colitis, GERD, hernia, gastro paresis, IBS and of course gluten and dairy intolerances. I take 12 Asacol per day and every 5 weeks I have Remicade infusions. I have had numerous colonoscopies and endoscopy and capsule endoscopy. My GI did not encourage me to eat a gluten free or dairy free diet because...

    Last night I made a meal direct from my childhood. I made salmon patties: 2 large cans pink salmon mashed with 3 eggs, 1/4 cup corn meal, salt, pepper and a sprinkle of onion powder. Used butter flavored spray and a bit of my dairy free margarine - Smart Balance and fried until brown and crispy on both sides. Served with some canned creamed corn. Yummo...
