  1. I'll vouch for Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix. I made the blueberry muffins and also a really delicious banana-nut bread. There are a lot of recipes on their website as the package only has a few. Open Original Shared Link
  2. From the University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center, 1 in 22 is the risk factor for first degree relatives and 1 in 39 for second degree relatives. Open Original Shared Link I'm convinced my daughter also has it but she needs to do a gluten challenge, which is not going to be easy as she generally eats gluten free already. Also difficult that she's...
  3. I look for it every time I go to Wal-Mart. I suspect they'll have it as soon as any of the other grocery stores around here. Surprisingly I never used it that much in the past but especially liked it for oven fried chicken.
  4. I bought the gluten free Asian Chicken Helper a couple of weeks ago at Wal-Mart and on Weds. they had the gluten free Asian Beef Helper (both are fried rice) and both were priced at $1.50 each. You do have to provide the meat and two eggs. I'm sure I could do it from scratch just as easily. I haven't yet tried the one I bought. No gluten free Bisquick...
  5. HaHa! I don't think I would be able to bite into them either. Maybe I could get two buns out of one batch. Do you store these flours in the fridge?
  6. I'm 5'5" I won't post my weight and doubt I can bench press anything.
  7. RiceGuy, I did pick up Pyrex clear glass bowls at Wal-Mart the other day...they came in a set of 3 with red lids so as soon as my order from Barry Farm arrives, I'm ready to try your original recipe (your first post in this thread). A quick question...approximately how long do you bake your mini-loaves of bread? I figure since it's done in a glass bowl...
  8. My box of Almond Crunch doesn't say anything about being made in a gluten free facility or being made on dedicated lines. Just curious...how much did they cost before they added "Gluten Free" to the box? I thought $2.68 was pretty cheap for a box of 6 compared to a lot of our other gluten free foods.
  9. I've been buying the gluten free Almond Crunch bars at Wal-Mart...pack of 6 for $2.68, which I think is pretty cheap compared to the price of one Kind bar I picked up at Giant Foods yesterday for $1.69 (my daughter pays $1.89 for a Kind bar at her local Whole Foods). I was in Wal-Mart today and forgot to check if they had the newer Peanut Crunch bars. ...
  10. Thanks...will take your suggestion! I bit the bullet and just ordered the guar gum, psyllium husks (ground), teff and sweet potato flours from Barry Farm. Price was good...$13.32 plus $8.19 shipping. Now I can't wait to get them to get started.
  11. Thanks for your quick reply!!! I pulled up the Barry Farm website last night and after looking at their prices, I'm sure I could get several things (including a lb. of ivory teff and sweet potato flours) for probably less than I could get the two other things at my local health food store. Glad to hear the cooking spray should work as I don't feel like...
  12. Thanks, RiceGuy! Guess I'll have to get the guar gum and psyllium to play around with this. Do you buy them locally - like at a health food store? If I have to order online, I might just get the sweet potato flour, too, since you feel it works so well. I never knew there was such a thing before you mentioned it. I like the idea of working with a small...
  13. RiceGuy, here are the flours I have on hand: White Rice Flour Brown Rice Flour Glutinous (sweet) Rice Flour Sorghum Flour 'Sweet' White Millet Flour Buckwheat Flour (light) Flax Seed Meal Corn Starch Potato Starch Potato Flour Tapioca Flour Corn Flour Yellow Corn Meal Garbanzo Bean Flour (almost gone but could pick up more) Also these...
  14. The recipes I've tried all suggest mixing the bread for "x" number of minutes using the paddle attachment of a stand mixer. Before I bought my KitchenAid, I tried my hand mixer and the bread ended up like a brick...you know, the kind you could kill someone with. So are you saying that you just mix up the ingredients (like stir them together), let...
  15. I think it definitely depends on the lab. My lab said: < 5 Negative 5 - 8 Equivocal > 8 Positive My tTG was > 100 (definitely positive followed up with EGD/biopsy - also positive)
  16. This is a really old thread dating back to 2005. I think a lot of Nature Valley Granola Bars contain oats if you can handle them. The only ones General Mills has marked gluten free are the Almond Crunch and they are really delish! Open Original Shared Link
  17. I think it was the smell of donuts that got to me...I used to pick up one cinnamon twist and eat it as soon as I got home. At 9 p.m. it's not carrot sticks that I'm craving! lol
  18. I haven't seen that commercial but I sorta tune out commercials anyway. I definitely noticed how digusting the smell was walking by the in-store bakery at a local grocery store (located next to dairy) on my way to get a couple bags of gluten free flour. I used to think the bakery smelled so good. Yuck now!!!
  19. Thanks for the link, RiceGuy! It's a really interesting topic I'm following so needless to say, I'll look forward to hearing about your future experiments and hopefully I'll find a recipe that works well and tastes great!!!
  20. I thought perhaps you had come up with a real miracle!!!
  21. Interesting recipe! Did you use yeast? I've followed some recipes exactly and have ended up with inedible gluten free bricks. lol
  22. Mack, your bread sounds wonderful...whole grain is what I had in mind. If I could get Udi's here, I'd probably buy a loaf to see how it taste since everyone seems to rave about it. But since I made an investment in a good KitchenAid stand mixer, I'm determined to make my own bread from scratch. I'm trying to stay away from mixes but the Bob's Red Mill...
  23. Thanks for the link, RiceGuy! Very interesting info in your link on the various gluten free flours (before my celiac diagnosis and joining this forum). I think I need to print that out for future reference. I just started a new thread on making homemade gluten free bread since I am looking for bread recipes using different flours.
  24. I've been struggling to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread (from scratch). I have made the one that mushroom posted under the buying a stand mixer thread for French Bread, which is yummy . I did buy a KitchenAid stand mixer but do not have a bread machine so am not looking for bread machine recipes. Thus far my other efforts have fallen way...
  25. I've already seen some recipes posted for the new gluten free Bisquick, too. Hopefully our old Bisquick recipes will work using it (cup for cup)...like the Impossible Pies, etc. Anxious to try it especially since it'll be readily available in regular grocery stores, Wal-Mart, etc. And hopefully not cost an arm and a leg!!! I always used Bisquick for...
