    I don't always have the mix but if I have a few kinds of gluten-free flours on hand I just mix 1/3 of each and it's always worked out fine with quick breds, muffins etc. I've always been a good cook and hardly measure. Sometimes it corn, rice and potato flour and others it might be hazlenut, corn and rice. As long as it is a flavor that isn't wierd with your...

    Even better I just found these gluten free italian bread crumbs a few weeks ago. Aleia's.. they are seasoned, and come in a 13 oz. plastic container. AWESOME!!!!!! I made chicken parm and they fried up nice and browned and crispy. I have also used them for eggplant parm and stuffed zuccini. Open Original Shared Link

    The easiest thing I do is take any regular. muffin or biscotti recipe and replace the flour with equal amounts of Bobs Red Mill all purpose baking mix and add I tsp xantham gum. Voila Easy. If i don't hve Bob's mix I used equal amounts of whatever gluten-free flours I have. I've used mixes of hazlenut flour with rice and corn flour etc. Just made chocolate...

    Potato starch is easy to find in regular markets in the aisle with the kosher products. Used commonly at Passover

    I use plain white corn flour (not corn meal). The flour is finer and readily available here in the aisle with the international foods like Goya and Gonsalves

    ARCHIVED Eggs

    Tina B replied to a topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut

    There is no gluten in eggs. Perhaps you've developed an allergy to eggs.

    I also do the individual ingredients on the label and it works fine for me. There are some things that are gluten free that are not specifically labeled that way but contain no ingredients that are not OK. Back when I was diagnosed some labels didn't tell you from what source :modified food starch was." In more recent years I see where they put after the...

    Erewhon crispy brown rice cereal. gluten-free and tastes just like rice crispies. Also comes with berries, plain, lightly sweetened and chocolate like cocoa crispies. I've gotten it in regular supermarkets all over. Look in the organic and health aisle if there isn't a seperate gluten free aisle. Open Original Shared Link free.com/index.cfm/manufacturer...

    Not a problem for me but I'm sure those that need to avoid soy know which brands they can use. Also I've seen some of the italian tunas packed in olive oil. You can also leave it out for vegetarian or toss in any other protein ie: shredded chicken, cooked shrimp etc.

    The Tinkyada lasagna noodles? They are great. I cooked them in my fish poacher so they could lay flat and none broke.

    I'm sure the people who know that they are that sensitive act accordingly. If it doesn't work for you then you don't do it. Everyone learns their limits.

    Cannelini Bean Salad No need to measure anything. I toss together: cannellini beans, tuna, calamata olives, sliced grape tomatoes, chopped garlic, fresh basil and anything else you want to add. Drizzle with olive oil, wine vinegar, fresh ground pepper and salt to taste.

    Davios downtown Philly has a great seperate gluten free menu. I had the penne with smoked chicken and walnut cream sauce. AWESOME! Check out the gluten-free menu Open Original Shared Link

    I ordered burgers without the bun lots on ski trips for lunch. I used to feel weird doing it years ago and then came the Atkins diet and then the South Beach diet craze and everon was ordering bunless burgers with a side salad instead of fries because of the carbs. Voila! not weird anymore.

    If anyone is dining out in RI almost all of the restaurants in the Pinelli Mara group have seperate gluten free menus.: Open Original Shared Link I have eaten at several and sampled many of their gluten free choices including the pizza at Twist. All were excellent. In addition, Papparazzi in the Garden City Shopping Center will do any of their pasta dishes...

    So true about how long to diagnosis because symptoms can be sooo different from person to person. I remember reading this article in newsweek years ago. Open Original Shared Link

    Why would you feel like you are starving? There are plenty of foods to eat including carbohydrates that are gluten free. You don't need gluten to consume calories.
  20. Tina B
    Absolutely! Flattened villi coupled with iron deficiency anemia. Just do the gluten free diet and you are done with follow up. Nothing else needed. You already know it makes you feel better. If you are strict about the diet I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the other vague symptoms also go away. Since celiac causes malabsorption you end up with all symptoms...

    VODKA MARTINI, STRAIGHT UP, 2 OLIVES :-) Make sure you ask for potato vodkas: Chopin, Lukasowa, or Ciroc vodka which is made from grapes

    If it were me I'd cancel the appointment and do the diet. A biopsy is the most difinitive diagnosis. Sounds like you had the work up backwards. Most GI's I've worked with or have spoken with do the bloodwork first and then confirm with biopsy. why waste more health care dollars and time.

    Tums. If you use Peopto Bismol be aware that you will have black stools from the bismuth.

    Agreed. I have had giant cell conjunctivitis and now have dry eye syndrome and have to use Systane drops or Genteel Gel. I had to stop wearing lenses years ago. I doubt it has anything to do with celiac. Too many non celiacs out there with the same problem. My husband, for one. It's a very common problem. My husband got Lasik because he had trouble with the...

    No brainer..... Kitchen Aid mixer. I've had mine 15 years. Love the steel bowl and the whisk attachment is great for whipping things. Steel is non porous so it cleans well in the dishwasher if you also have to use it for gluten baking. Food processors have a plastic container and aren't as easy to get super clean.
