    Do you have any regular cookbooks? A lot of recipes are naturally gluten-free. It's when you get into baked goods that it gets pretty tricky. There are some pretty good mixes out there, like Open Original Shared Link, for example. Do a search for gluten-free. For some doctored-up baked goodies, Open Original Shared Link is a good cookbook.

    Ancient Harvest quinoa does not need to be prerinsed...it may be a bit more expensive than other brands.

    Besides some of the things already mentioned, I bought a yeast meauring spoon, which holds 2-1/4 tsp., from King Arthur Flour. Since I like to buy jars of yeast, it is so handy and at a cost of $3.95, very affordable. I should also mention the 9x4x4" loaf pan I bought from them...not cheap at $17.95 but it's heavy and a nice addition for baking gluten...

    The box doesn't indicate whether it was made in a shared facility or anything about their manufacturing (made on shared lines, made in a dedicated gluten-free facility, etc.) I would think if it was made in a gluten-free facility, they'd make sure that info was on the box. Hope we don't have a problem with CC. There is a phone no. on the box you could...

    At least he'll give you a great place to visit!!! My daughter is in grad school at the University of Colorado at Denver (class of 2012). Hopefully she doesn't plan to become a professional student.

    It doesn't say anything about this on the box.

    My daughter (also celiac) lives in Denver. I'm sure she has no idea how fortunate she is to live in such a gluten-free city with tons of restaurants and access to gluten-free foods.

    All leftovers...chicken, green beans and yellow squash. Blueberries later. Now this is my idea of fast food.

    That sounds a whole lot better and much more fun!!!

    This is by far the easier flourless chocolate cake I've made. I made one a few years ago from the epicurious website and the ganache was cloyingly sweet. Ugh!

    I currently have San-J Tamari Sauce (wheat-free) and it's good. Before diagnosis I was a huge fan of Kikkoman soy sauce. While I haven't seen it yet in stores around here, Open Original Shared Link has come out with a gluten-free version.

    I did keep a bit of Tupperware if it was in good condition. Sadly, my favorite Tupperware mixing bowls got tossed, as well as the Tupperware colander I liked so well. While my flour canister wasn't Tupperware, I taped it shut and threw it out as I didn't want to deal with even touching the flour or having it in the air. I felt kind of off after cleaning...

    So much for the name "Price Chopper", huh? I wonder if prices vary depending on the Wal-Mart you go to...small town vs large or larger city???

    IBS is a symptom, not a diagnosis, in spite of what some doctors try to tell us. You might want to ditch the dairy for now as many of us are lactose intolerant until we have healed (and some can never digest dairy products). Lactaid tablets never did anything for me. I am able to use Lactaid milk and probably didn't start eating cheese until I was...

    I found them at our local Wal-Mart today...$3.12 for a 12 oz. box (the regular Rice Krispies were $2.94 for the same size box). Of course, I had to get marshmallows to go with them.

    If I could get it clean, I kept it. If not, out it went. Actually I did replace a lot of things like you also did...new cutting boards, new wooden spoons, new nonstick cookware, new toaster, etc., etc. I ditched a lot of Tupperware that I knew I'd never get clean. So obviously those are things that I'd have never gotten clean with soap and water.

    I am the paper towel queen so I do use lots of them in the kitchen.

    This past weekend I made pizza using Open Original Shared Link that I find to be pretty good and thus far it has been my go to recipe for pizza. I do have her flour but you can mix up your own Open Original Shared Link mix found here, which I think is what her flour is based on. I used a prepared sauce but I really do need to make my own.

    Hang in there, Marie! I naively thought I'd go gluten-free and everything would be fine instantly. Sometimes it just takes awhile and we all want immediate results. And there's definitely a learning curve to feel comfortable with the diet. I think today is the day of your scope? Hopefully the dr. takes a lot of biopsies. Don't know if he'll be able...

    My dinner was easy...a hamburger, fresh green beans and a twice-baked potato (one of the few things I occasionally pick up from my local grocery store deli). I'm about to have an Edy's Strawberry Fruit Bar.

    Actually scrubbing with soap and water will get things clean. I've never heard of using alcohol before although it could give you very sterile gluten. I just used common sense going through my kitchen...if I could get it clean, I kept it. If not, out it went. Of course, I have since splurged and bought a bunch of new things because I felt I deserved...

    My doctor's office suggested I eat lightly the day before the prep. I made a big pot of chicken and rice soup and pretty much lived on that. The prep is definitely the worst part of the procedure...as well as being starving! I was afraid I might get nauseous but thankfully did not.

    I've found Lactaid milk to be too sweet, too. Works fine for me using it on cereal or in recipes for baked goods, which usually have a bit of sugar in them anyway (thinking bread here). Other than that, I wouldn't want to use it in something savory and I really don't drink milk by itself.
