I know someone already posted about a great low cal cookbook today, but I wanted to get a variety of ideas...I find multiple cookbooks sparks more ideas!!

So here's what I'm look for: low cal, gluten-free, without a lot of sea food recipes (I can't stand the taste of smell, much to husband's disagreement! I tell him this is what restaurants are for! ha ha).

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks!!

How wonderful of you to post this! It's like you are a mind reader. I was going to post to see if anyone had any suggestions for gluten-free and low calorie books. Just one questions...does it have a lot of fish recipes in it? I detest the taste of sea food and I find a lot of gluten-free cookbooks have a lot of seafood recipes in them.

Thanks!

I prefer it on toast than micro for taste preferences, but it all depends on your kiddos.

Glad to hear you've had success here...I've never had an enjoyable gluten free experience at Panera

is your D pale, floaty (hard to flush), and greasy or foamy/frothy?

might mean that you're having trouble digesting the fat that's in it. I have the same problem right now if I overdose on grease or fatty nuts like cashews, peanuts...

No it's not. Good idea though. Thanks.

I've been gluten free for just over a year now and I have noticed in the past couple of months that when I eat red meat or food that is greasy I have to run to the bathroom with the big D. This happens when I have things that are only kind of greasy as well, not just fried things. I have drained meat excessively trying to get it all out and still no relief. My husband has gone gluten free (mostly) with me, though he has no issues with gluten, and still has the same problem. Anyone else experience this something? Any suggestions/ideas?

You could be healing from your stomach acid damage. I have a herniated esophagus and am on acid reducers for it. I had a lot of damage from the over production of acid/heart burn. I had a lot of pain for about 4 months after just healing up. I noticed it more when I was on the meds because my heart burn was gone. Just a thought...

Corn? It's in a ton of stuff! More than you may realize.

There are tons of things you can do with bisquick! go to www.bettycrocker.com to find a bunch of gluten free recipes! I make all sorts of different dinner ideas from here.

I asked this same question and follow the link to see the ideas people gave me!

I have heard the samething. Its really just such a high risk of cc due to all the bread products and the flour in the air that it just is not in their best interest for them to say it's gluten free.

The Panera by my house has a book that lists ingredients for each item on the list along with all the nutrition info similar to what would be on the label of a package. You could ask to see the ingredients for it, I usually due because I have a couple allergies and it's just easier for me to check. Just an idea if you really still want to eat there. I choose not too because of the high risk of cc.

Misson are good, I prefer El Milargro which I can buy at wal mart. I heat it on a griddle over the stove or over a low flame on the burner.

Too much potassium can do funny things to people. Many people report tingling sensations, numbness, increased heart rate, chest pains, nausea, diarrhea and many others.

Another thought...is there cc with latex? do people who wear gloves at your school use latex gloves when handling foods? Could you be that sensational that it would bother you? Not all food would do this because they would use pots and mixing spoons, etc that would touch foods instead of hands.

My mom is great...I trust her whole heartedly. But I think it is a case by case basis. My mom is very supportive of me!

Glad to hear you're doing better!

Have you thought about casein? Many celiacs cannot have casein either. Also, some people cannot have nightshades or corn either. Corn is in EVERYTHING just like gluten. It is even on many fruits.

Betty Crocker has dairy free recipes for all their gluten free mixes online. Google it...it uses veggie shortening instead.

Peter is right on! Healing is a long process no matter what disease you are trying to heal from. Remember your intestines do go through a long healing process.

Hope they help

I take Nutrition Now PB8. It is in a white bottle with blue writing and cap. I love them. They were recommended by my health store. I first started taking them because I had a yeast infection. They made me feel so much better all around I kept taking them.

Not but that would be AMAZING!

DO NOT GO GLUTEN FREE!! It will skew your tests and you may get a false negative. You need as many antibodies in your body as you possibly can for testing. If you stop eating gluten, you stop producing antibodies. WAIT!!!!

I typically bring left overs because it's quick, easy, and cheap...however I have access to a microwave so this is helpful. If you need ideas go to the search bar and search for "lunch" there are tons of pages like this question with tons of ideas. I just did this search and here's one page https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/12526-lunch-choices/

Hope you find ideas!

Just a word of advice...you have to have gluten in your system for a month or more to get an accurate reading. Just a week or two would give you an invalid test. It takes awhile. Also, there are a lot of false negatives. Hope you find some answers! It's miserable not know what is wrong with yourself.

I am gluten intolerant...no celiac label...I cannot even kiss my husband who ate gluten or drank a beer without a reaction. I have to be very strict or I will pay! Though there are some gluten intolerant people who are not that strict just as there are some celiac's who are not that strict either. Both categories have different levels of sensitivities not exclusive to one or the other.
