    I like Earth Balance and they do make a soy-free version. I bought it right after I went gluten-free but found I could tolerate butter well so for me now, butter is it!

    It looks like the cinnamon is it. I bet you could add some more spices though like a tad of cloves, ginger and possibly nutmeg. Actually it sounds rather good...as if I need those calories!

    I'm jealous...I wanna move to Kansas City!

    There are several different flavors of Stax but I always seem to buy the plain ones. And I always buy mine from my local Wal-Mart for $1.00 each (they're in containers similar to Pringles, which are not gluten-free). BTW, depending on what milk you choose and if you only use it for pancakes, you could freeze it in one-cup containers. I buy Lactaid and...

    I just took some really yummy-looking hamburger buns out of the oven (Jules Shepard's recipe with slight variations by me) but since I didn't start them until 5:30 or so, I think I'll just make a sandwich...not a burger. And a glass of wine.

    Lay's Stax are marked gluten-free whereas the other Lay's products are not as far as I know so ??? I don't happen to have any Stax in my pantry so I don't know what the packaging says.

    Lay's Stax potato chips are also gluten-free. ETA: I also like Utz regular potato chips.

    Welcome StellinPA! South Central PA here.

    Two pieces of banana bread that I made yesterday and coffee. Am sure I'll have a more substantial breakfast later as this will never hold me until lunch.

    I'd put my money on the gluteny pasta. While parmesan cheese has casein in it, it would have very little, if any, lactose. Some of us are lactose intolerant and for some that goes away after being gluten-free for awhile.

    A bowl of creamy potato soup (made when my granddaughter was here for a few days). I made banana bread today so will definitely taste it later this evening and maybe also have some watermelon.

    I guess my question would be: Can you stay on a strict gluten-free diet without a diagnosis? I'm not saying you'd get an "official" diagnosis if you went through all the testing as you've already read on this forum. But if later on you would want to get the celiac panel and endoscopy, you'd really have to eat the equivalent of approx. 4 pieces of bread...

    Glad you are feeling better! I think many of us have ups and downs occasionally so I'd like to think I'm normal. I don't have fat malabsorption so don't know the relationship between it and night blindness. I do know that I can't see well to drive at night and therefore avoid it like the plague. I get too much glare from lights and headlights that...

    Welcome, Paula! Yes, it's entirely possible and not at all uncommon to have a negative blood test and still have celiac. But since your test is two years old, things could change and you may be positive today so the celiac panel should be run again. The usual procedure is to have the tests and then go on to have an endoscopy/biopsy (the supposed "gold...

    Sheesh, girl, you're in the prime of life...don't believe those naysayers! It is not a natural part of aging to feel old and decrepit at the age of 45!!! My daughter is 45 and is in grad school, training to run a half-marathon, is hypo-thyroid, anemic and was diagnosed with celiac in Aug., 2010. Obviously I'm a lot older and don't generally feel that way...

    The tuna cans I've seen here in the U.S. don't have the type of bottoms that can be removed (not knowing if they are available depending on brand). Do they in Canada? The muffin top pan I bought makes 6 hamburger buns and costs around $15 on Amazon. Perfect size for a burger. ETA: I do have English muffin rings but have not yet used them.

    You may very well be able to use your favorite bread recipe to make buns/rolls. I've occasionally made a single roll just to test it to see if various bread recipes would work. I've made hamburger buns using Open Original Shared Link and they actually turned out very good. I used ginger ale as I don't know where on earth I'd ever find gluten-free beer...

    I never thought about adding cheese as layers...good suggestion! Actually made pizza again on Tues. as my 12-year old granddaughter spent a few days with me and she was dying to make homemade pizza. She just loves to use my KitchenAid stand mixer. She measured out all the ingredients (well, she failed the test to separate the egg white and yolk...lol...

    Welcome! Be aware that you are replying to an old thread and the original posters probably won't even see your post.

    Sorry that you are feeling so ill...not fun! If I was nauseous, I'd be inclined to have some chicken and rice soup (or just broth with rice in it). Would that work for you? I'd probably also sip a coke or ginger ale as I find that to be soothing for me but don't know if that would work for you.

    Does it have oats in it? If so and it's not marked gluten-free, it would be suspect. Cross-contamination is a huge problem for oats from growing, harvesting, transporting and manufacturing. No Publix stores around me...

    I just pulled up food.com and they have 96 recipes for gluten-free pancakes.
  24. sa1937
    I've seen that, too, but don't remember who posted it. A lot of the Cake Mix Doctor's gluten-free recipes use instant pudding mix. Or I've seen sour cream, etc. Guess it would be to add moisture as some of these cakes dry out quickly.
  25. sa1937
    Guess I'm lazy but I use either gluten-free Bisquick or Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix. Wonder if leaving the batter out all night would be similar to what you'd do for making the starter for sourdough bread, etc. The link you posted sounds like a lot more work than pancakes should be (unless, of course, that you have a dietary reason for using these...
