Their mixes are $7 each with $11 shipping. I would not invest in that unless I knew for sure it was really really good.

ARCHIVED Another Bread Question
Mizzo replied to Marc49's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Unfortunately trying to make gluten-free bread taste like "regular bread" is like trying to make apple juice with oranges. It ain't gonna happen. As you stated adapt and move on. The gluten-free world has progressed in the last few years so keep an eye on what's out there. You never know when the mad scientist will spin gold from the straw. -
ARCHIVED Testing...what To Expect
Mizzo replied to ship's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My 7 yr old had hers in April. We had a great experience. Once she was taken in she was back out in 45 minute so don't go far you will be wanted in recovery room. She woke up groggy we leaned over the bed so she could get hug and as soon as she was completely awake they gently but quickly removed IV. A few minutes later she was sucking on a popsicle because... -

ARCHIVED Bummed Out Six Year Old
Mizzo replied to hockeymomofceliacchild's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
All new dx kids are sensitive, focus on the positive. After 1 year, 1 other kid my DD's age was recently diagnosed with Celiacs in her school. Now she KNOWS it exists outside our house. On the really bright side , kuddo's to him for being able to read the words Gluten free at age 6. -
ARCHIVED How Long To Try Gluten Free?
Mizzo replied to kimtn's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I saw some improvement pretty good improvemnets in 2 weeks(severe stomach aches gone), but 3 months was really the true marker for US.( no more digestive issues, behaviour back to near normal ) Everyone is different sorry to say. But really, for only 2 wks, you will be questioning yourself if it was truly the diet or did you catch a lucky 2 wks. -

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix
Mizzo replied to thindery's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I just made King Arthurs pizza crust mix last week. It is pretty good overall. Makes 2 really large pizza's. Cut dough in half and freeze if that is too much. You need to roll it out fairly thin , I just patted it out and got a super thick crust . Taste was nice, as was consistency. Rice crust IMO tends to be sweet so a more robust sauce I think... -

Mizzo replied to SJD's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
You are a great mom, keep up the good work. Try to find a Celiac support group in your area. Soo many celiacs have multiple allergens, you are not alone. Good luck. -

Invest in a big one with multiple settings or even better a heavy duty steamer/ rice cooker . my next purchase will be Wolfgang puck's Just a couple or idea's: Chicken taco soup goes a long way. Keep soup on thicker side for leftovers, extra's go great with tortilla chip for quick lunch or dinners. Pork cutlets w...

ARCHIVED School Lunch Ideas
Mizzo replied to Esther Sparhawk's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I believe that was just a header BUT supposedly the nacho , salsa and cheese dip lunchable is gluten free. I would believe it is made on share equipment though. We have never thought it worth the risk to try them. -

ARCHIVED New To All Of This, What Staples Do We Need For Cooking?
Mizzo replied to justcrash's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
There are soooooooooo many different flours used in gluten-free cooking it is tough to make a general statement. It completely depends on your taste. White rice flour, brown rice flour , tapioca starch and potato starch are in 90% of recipes, after that it gets into particular tastes. Cornstarch is a must , it's used for thickening sauces and in many... -

Mizzo replied to Kelleybean's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
