  1. I have tried all the brands and King Arthur is the best to me, plus it makes 2 - 8" pans so you can make a double layer or 24 cupckaes , second best and still very good is Pamela's.
  2. If you can have coconut try the website www. Elanaspantry.com she has some Paleo recipes that might work for you.
  3. Replaced: toaster wooden/rubber spoons/spatulas strainer & colanders wooden butcher block knife holder all scratched teflon pans muffin pans deeply scratched bakeware (if I could scrub it clean I did, and kept it) tossed bakeware with details ( like fancy bundt pan ) wooden rolling pin hand mixer mini chopper cutting boards
  4. If it doesn't come up can you inquire about this . The drug is called AT1001 ,It was in trial, then I heard it was stopped, then started again etc....It is not supposed to be intended as a cure but as a temporary allowance of gluten to be ingested with little to no side effects. Thanks
  5. My Indian friend makes yogurt every few days with no gadgets whatsoever. She does this: pre heat oven to mildly warm ( my warm setting is hot so I don't use it) Bring milk (whatever % you want) to a rolling boil and shut off to cool If you have a thermometer wait till it reaches 105'-110' or if its very very warm but not hot to touch . You can put finger...
  6. Is the teacher sensitive to your needs , without going thru a 504 plan (which is fine but a lot of work) ? Can you supply a gluten-free mat to add to the desktop that is for your child onl,y handled and rolled up and stored by your child only ? Can the desk be separated somewhat ? Also I asked the teacher to instruct the kids to wipe their desks top...
  7. If you choose to send her there are 3 golden rules for gluten-free cooking when I cook away from home . Paper plates plastic ware Reynolds wrap and parchment paper Anything that can be heated in a oven can be baked on parchment or in reynolds wrap For grilling use reynolds wrap serve on paper plates with plastic ware. Of course there are tons...
  8. BTW is this the Natures classroom event ? just curious as me and 2 other allergen moms have discussed our extreme fears for this when our girls have to go.
  9. Obviously you would have to pre-make ALL of her foods in advance with strict reheating guidelines with absolutely no sustitutions allowed. If she can follow those guidelines and there is another adult with Celiac understanding and it is not that far away that you can go get her if needed , then and only then would I allow her to go. IMO I would only...
  10. First did you get new colanders /strainer as mentioned above this is an item almost impossible to decontaminate fully ? Although the cheese packet contents are gluten-free, the pasta that it was boxed is in not. Could any pasta crumbs have gotten into your pasta ? Has she had Gluten free bread prior to you making this loaf ? If not some people have...
  11. My DD was dx 2 yrs ago. At the time she was in the 90h % for ht and wt and she is in the 95 % now. We are having a hard time maintaining/losing wt since her veggie intake is limited. Also, my Aunt was Dx 4 yrs ago and is also overweight and has been most of her life. So ..not all Celiacs are underweight.
  12. My daughter would like goldfish like crackers
  13. I would guess you need a tougher flour, maybe Amaranth or Sorghum .
  14. I make a big batch of pancakes on the wknd and freeze them with wax paper separating the layers. They microwave really well on med-high heat. Rice cakes with Nutella or P.butter and a gogurt corn tortillas with cheese (quesadilla like) and turkey slices fruit smoothies with a protein (cheese or pbutter on tortilla chips ) Here's a few ideas I...
  15. We used a medic alert bracelet for the first year (grade 1) . It made me feel better. I also used one for myself when I was on blood thinners for a blood clot. So obviously I believe in them.
  16. Once we found out about Celiac we noticed everything has food involved. LOL
  17. Hi , Because gluten-free foods do taste different ( not bad, just different ) you should keep her off those simple carbs for 3-4 weeks then introduce the gluten-free version. This way she can adjust her taste buds. It does make the transition a little easier. Udi's rolls/bagels/bread/ pizza crust are simple gluten-free white bread products that taste pretty...
  18. Our fav's are: for easy ready Udi's gluten-free bread, bagels, hot dog rolls and hamburg rolls I am now strictly using King Arthur flour blends for : cookies muffins pancakes brazilian cheese biscuits cakes/cupcakes (their chocolate is awesome) I have started using King arthur Hi-fiber maize = resistant starch. subbing...
  19. I froze king Arthur cupcakes for 2 months and when they defrosted they were a bit wet (condensation ? ) tasted fine but tough to decorate.
  20. Initially we saw a nutritionist at the Childrens hospital and she was very well informed. She gaves us a Power point presentations, a large package of info , walked us through basic dietary needs etc... Overwhelmed us with info really, but at least we were armed with knowledge. I got an iphone app for Gluten free foods which helped with the shopping...
  21. FYI Regarding this recipe ( asafoetida ) may have gluten in it, so be careful.
  22. We had a wonderful experience. Our daughter was put to sleep with anesthia mask first so the pain and anguish of a IV was not there. She recovered immediately, enjoyed a popsicle had a light lunch in 2 hours and a minor sore throat the following day with no other problems. It was a thousand times harder on me and my husband than it was on her. My...
  23. It takes time to figure it all out. It is a constant learning experience. The really good news is product labeling is getting better and easier to make decisions with. The fact that the products you have to really worry about are processed foods makes it easy to start to whole, natural foods and build on top of that. Someone once suggested that you...
  24. I recently started using superfine brown rice flour and it works great.
