I must be Manna from Anna's greatest fan! I order 2 cases at a time and make a loaf once a week. I have this nifty knife that slices uniform slices and I package them and freeze them and make a sammy every morning for work. Or I cook them in English muffin rounds for awesome rolls. Tonight I'm going to make a loaf and this weekend I'm going to make stuffing...

ARCHIVED Oprah - Let's Get Cd On Her Show
luvs2eat replied to floridanative's topic in Publications & Publicity
I think this is a fabulous idea. Even if Oprah has talked about it before... just mention in your email how MANY new members we get every day on this site and how many MORE are diagnosed every day. She might even take the opportunity to plug some of the yummy foods available to us. Count me in on the "F" week!! -
ARCHIVED Missing My Italian Food!
luvs2eat replied to jrom987's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I make lasagna all the time with brown rice noodles and no one knows the difference. My biggest problem is remembering WHERE I bought them so I can buy more!! haha I've also made Mexican lasagna like you've described and it was delish!! -
I usually make a sandwich every day with my Manna from Anna bread which I bake and slice and freeze in bags with 2 slices each. I toast the bread and make a ham and swiss or any kind of sammy I want. That, plus a banana or apple is my awesome lunch every work day.

ARCHIVED Flu Shots
luvs2eat replied to a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thanks so much for your response, lovegrov! I'm gonna get back to my doctor and get more answers!! Yea... I'm talking the REAL flu, not to be remotely compared to any 24-48 hour thing. The real flu knocks you flat for 7-10 days and take another 7-10 to fully recover from!! Ugh!! -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Soup
luvs2eat replied to GlutenGirl144's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Correct... Campbells Cream of Mushroom is NOT gluten-free. Progresso Creamy Mushroom is. Now, if I can figure out how to french fry onions... I can make green bean casserole!!! Woo-hoo!! -
ARCHIVED Flu Shots
luvs2eat replied to a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Wow... really glad to see this topic cause I have questions! I was allergic to eggs when I was a baby, as were my sibs. We all outgrew it and had all the childhood vaccines, which would have been incubated in eggs, right?? So, I always shied away from the flu vaccine cause I knew it was incubated in eggs. But then I found out my sister (the most... -

That sounds awesome! Can't wait to try it!! Thanks!! -
ARCHIVED The Best Gf Bread Ever!
luvs2eat replied to cornbread's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I am certain I am her best customer! I buy it by the case (the regular mix) and make it into loaves. I slice it with my handy-dandy knife that cuts uniform slices and freeze them in packets of 2 for sammies to take to work. I also make it in English Muffin rounds for rolls. Anna (with whom I've emailed) said it makes great pizza crusts too, but I've not... -
ARCHIVED Please Share Your Best Thanksgiving Cornbread
luvs2eat posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I've been making cornbread for many years, but the few times I've attempted dressing/stuffing, it's been a tasteless failure. Please share your favorite recipe. And do you put this dressing/stuffing IN the bird to cook? -
ARCHIVED Commercial Cooking Classes
luvs2eat replied to Ber's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I'll have to pull out my Gluten-Free Gourmet and try those scones. Most of the baking recipes I've tried, I've been unhappy with. I tend to go for flourless baking or none. -
ARCHIVED Gf Cornbread - The Best!
luvs2eat replied to luvs2eat's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I've never tried a mix as this is the recipe I've always used... way before going gluten-free. I think the mixes are lighter ... more cake-like. This is a denser cornbread. I swear it's baking it in the skillet that makes it so good! -
Hey Ken Ritter!! We're making a pilgrimage to the PF Changs in Marlton, NJ, next weekend, as it's the only one remotely near us! (and it's probably more than an hour away!!) I was there for the first time in Portland, OR, and I can't wait to go again!! I found the servers incredibly attentive to my dietary restrictions and the food was YUMMY!!

My cornbread recipe's always been gluten-free. It's my friend's southern grandmother's recipe I put a few tbsp. of oil in my small cast iron skillet and put it in the oven while it preheats up to 400º. In a bowl, I mix: 1 cup corn meal scant 1/4 cup sugar 1 tbsp. baking powder 1 cup milk 1 beaten egg When the oven's heated, carefully take ...

ARCHIVED For Those Who Make Manna From Anna Bread
luvs2eat posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Have you ever tried to use it to make turkey stuffing? I might try it with a smaller chicken before I ask the whole family to have gluten-free turkey stuffing, but I'm so excited at the prospect, I can't even tell you. I've tried cornbread dressing several times and it's just not right. What I really need to do is belly up to my friend's table, cause... -
ARCHIVED Thanks For The "duh" Moment
luvs2eat replied to luvs2eat's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
And I forgot my own favorite analogy... I might as well have said... "I can take off the big pieces of rat poison and blow any dust off." Would I really eat that salad then?? -
ARCHIVED Thanks For The "duh" Moment
luvs2eat replied to luvs2eat's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Viola... have you been peeking into my brain?? Cause I totally got defensive!! But lucky for ME... I thought it through and realized that I'm not always as smart as I like to think I am... and it turned into a valuable learning experience. Thanks for the support! -
I wasn't thinking... that's what. Of course you're all right. I was such a dolt to think that picking croutons off my salad was okay. I really was thinking that if I'm not having symptoms, I'm okay. DUH... that's why I come here. For the good advice I always get. Thanks for the wake-up call!!

I'm only 3 years gluten-free, but my middle daughter's just been diagnosed and I realize that it's become a pretty easy part of my life. She's thrilled that she doesn't have to find out all I've found out on her own, but she's still in the shock of it and wondering, too, what's left for her to eat. For example... she's a vegetarian and loved veggie burgers...

I never lost weight... even having diarrhea for months and months. Since going gluten-free I've gained about 30!! My DD's doc told her people with celiac disease either lose weight or gain it. She got the wt. loss part, I didn't. I can't seem to get it off either... so I'm stepping up my exercise in a big way hoping that'll help! If I'm not lighter, at...

Well, don't worry about where it went... cause I found it. Dang!!!

I like "just a little sperm" analogy. Like others have said on here too... "oh come on... it was only a LITTLE rat poison!"

ARCHIVED If You Could Eat Whatever You Wanted And
luvs2eat replied to rmmadden's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I believe I was the bread queen. I used to make the most delicious braided Challah breads and a round country loaf with a crusty outside... I am drooling here!! That's my first and foremost wish!! Bread and butter!!! Second I'd choose Pizza Hut's Stuffed Crust pizza with pepperoni and pineapple... and beer (that's ONE food!!) Lastly, real chocolate...
