    While you may have become ill from eating a broccoli casserole with Cheez Whiz, it is gluten-free. It's a Kraft product and they will not hide gluten. Actually Kraft is exceptionally good at labeling even listing in bold print the top allergens. It is, however, a highly processed food. Open Original Shared Link

    I guess I was just the opposite...I never had a problem with lactose before but had to give it up when I went gluten-free. I really missed dairy products and used Lactaid milk (100% lactose-free). Then about after 9 months gluten-free, I started eating hard cheeses. I just bought regular milk and think I'm tolerating it. I'll test ice cream again soon...

    I'd like to know where you read that. Yeast, except for brewer's yeast as Peter noted above, is gluten-free. That said, there are some chicken broths that contain wheat and they're clearly labeled. Some gluten-free brands that come to mind are Progresso, Pacific Foods and Kitchen Basics. I bought a small can from Food Lion this week and it's marked...

    That may very well be what people do! Glad your hubby like your pie!

    Pedrose, sorry you haven't gotten a response to your message yet. Did your dr. run a complete celiac panel or are those two results the only things? If so, it's incomplete. Plus you need to give reference ranges for those readings as they vary from lab to lab. Personally I'm not knowledgeable of gene testing but they're in no way diagnostic for celiac...

    For cereals like Rice Krispies, for example, you have to watch for the word "malt", which is barley. Kelloggs has come out with a newer Rice Krispies cereal that is made from brown rice and is prominently marked as gluten-free.

    I'm pretty comfortable using McCormick's herbs and spices so I guess each person has to make up their own mind as to what they want to use. I honestly don't know how many companies actually post on how they test or what ppm they test for. You might want to call or write McCormick's to see if you can get further clarification (and then let us all know)....

    I have a feeling it's a saline solution (water and salt) that's much like a brine to make meat more tender and juicy. And needless to say, it adds to the weight and is a lot cheaper than the meat itself.

    I so agree with this. Guess I should google Stephen Cherniske's credentials. I suspect they may be "interesting". I've been around too long to believe everything I read. WhenDee, if you want to give up caffeine because of what Stephen Cherniske says, that's fine with me. And I know that some people do not tolerate caffeine (or hundreds of other random...

    Well, I'm in the U.S. so can't help you there. Did you try searching Google to see if you can find any info? You may have to call the company.

    If I could have found any already made gluten-free pie crusts around here, I'd have bought one. Instead I struggled yesterday to roll one out that I made from scratch...did a lot of patching. For me, the redeeming results will be in the filling, not the crust. I'm making a pecan pie so will bake it today. If I had been asked to make a pumpkin pie...

    I hear you, Booghead! I used to love Pizza Hut Supreme Pan Pizza, too, but now make my own. It's not Pizza Hut but it's good and and it satisfies my pizza cravings but I don't make it greasy. Takala has given you some good suggestions for that. And no, you don't have to drown a gluten-free pizza crust in sauce. The only time I had trouble with that was...

    My tired old eyes can't handle those either. HA! You'd never take them either. You also crack me up!!!

    Check Open Original Shared Link to see if the product is on it.

    How about making a coconut cream pie???
  17. sa1937
    Or they get several pages of suggestions and nix every one of them.
  18. sa1937
    I don't recall a coconut taste...probably because of the typical pumpkin pie spices.
  19. sa1937
    I think you're the one who suggested it to me.

    Last year I used coconut milk (not low-fat) in a pumpkin dessert and it worked fine. I see no reason it wouldn't work using the Libby's pumpkin pie recipe. Jules Shepard has a lot of her recipes on her Open Original Shared Link so you might want to do a search there. She is also dairy-free. I have her cookbook Free for All Cooking, which includes substitutes...

    I also debated about getting a bread machine after buying just one totally inedible loaf of gluten-free bread. I was looking at a bread machine or a KitchenAid stand mixer. I bought the mixer as I thought it would be far more versatile and I didn't have room for both. It was the right decision for me. We've had some recent discussions on bread machines...

    So true! And I do wish people would learn to use that Google button at the top right hand corner of the screen. So many questions being asked have been asked before and answered in great detail. Very helpful. But please....don't pull up a post from 2004 and expect the info to be accurate!

    As far as a FAQ section is concerned, I think it's a great idea. Only problem: If someone can't even be bothered to take the time to read the Board Rules, would they really read a FAQ section?

    I really can't imagine it would freeze well. I think I'd be tempted to keep a couple of pieces for my "waist" and generously share the rest with what I would think would be very grateful friends or neighbors. You might also want to google it to see if anyone has tried freezing it. I'm always amazed at what I can find on google.

    Have you checked the BRM website to see if they have a recipe for making cornbread stuffing (I'm guessing that's what you want to use it for)? They might also have suggestions for toasting it for croutons.
