    I use to use the wheat kind but the smell in the microwave bothered me and it just got old. Last year I brought the Carex Bed Buddy around $8-10 it's filled with oat and rice and you don't have to put water in the microwave. You can also freeze it or microwave.

    Tony Di Napoli 43rd St. What an awesome meal yesterday. I called ahead 4 weeks ago and mentioned I had gluten free and vegetarians dining, no problem we have gluten-free pasta and vegetables. Called yesterday morning to confirm the reservation and gluten-free. Waitress was very educated and before I could ask she was spot on, you can't have that or you...

    I was a huge snacker, prior to October. I don't eat a traditional breakfast or lunch never did, loved my cookies and milk late night. We always have done whole foods for dinner and still continue. Most nights I'll skip the starch and make double vegetable and a salad with the protein. Milk is still an issue, so no more cookies and milk late night, also...

    I googled Schar and found my local Meat Farms (Long Island, NY) carried it. I'm so excited they are soft and not dense. I won't open till ready to use and then fridge or freeze the rest. I'll report later. But, to my surprise I found that store has a G.F. section. It carries brands that my DH goes to Trader Joe's and Whole Foods for. So excited everyday...

    Thank you Irish, everyday is a new beginning and sometimes overwhelming. I wasn't sure of what I was using with all I had read. That's why I came to the experts with the experience. The cost is not bad if it last 90 days it comes to $12 a month, the Aloe drink is close to $60 month. I probably will use the Aloe for a couple months and just stay on the...

    I was told after diagnosis to cut out milk for 3-4 weeks, I used carnation flavored liquid in my coffee and no other milk. After 6 weeks I had a grilled cheese sandwich and cheese cake, OMG the pain... Even now 3 months gluten-free, I only have milk in my coffee. When I do have cheese it's in moderation. Last night late I made Nacho's and oh how I suffered...

    Oh no, your question has me in a tail spin. I just started using and was going to recommend nutra-Metrix Probiotic / Enzymes (brought @ the Doctors office) using it along with Ultimate Aloe drink. It is a vegetarian mixture with no wheat, gluten, soy, yeast, starch, milk, salt or preservatives. My dilemma, I started researching other recommended Probiotic...

    Mushroom risotto, veal marsala and grilled baby eggplant with goat cheese balsamic. yum. Now back in the kitchen and time to cook my Sauerbraten and kartoffelklossee for tomorrow. The meat has been soaking all week and I cook tonight and then fridge overnight making it easier to slice tomorrow, same thing with the kartoffelklossee (potato dumplings...

    The last few years I made 2 pots of soup every weekend to help feed my in-laws ( a hearty and nutritious first dish) and made vegetation chili for our son. I cool the meal then cool, put in 2 cup or 4 cup plastic containers (buy @ the dollar store), freeze. I throw out the container after 3 or 4 times use. Defrost, reheat in a glass bowl or 4 cup glass...

    Thank you all for your replys. I've been layin low waiting for results. I am so happy (relieved) tonight all is good. Irish I didn't have to worry last month with the bowel series, thank god I carry wipes with me. That barium was out of me in less then 60 minutes, but also took 2 days of white poo-poos. I thank god I found a new good GI Dr. he was...

    When I buy fresh bread (we only have Udi's available here) I put 2 slices in a ziplock sandwich bag and then back into the original bag it came in and freeze. It's easy to take a ziplock out each morning and defrost or toast. Just found a bakery 15 miles away and the loaf of bread is huge, I cut the slices in half. It all comes with time and what works...

    When I was diagnosed late Oct, my Dr. said no milk or lactose for 3 weeks. Time to give the villi time to heal, the enzymes in the dairy are not good in healing time. Thanksgiving weekend I had cheese cake and then 2 days of grilled cheese sandwiches. OMG what a horrible time the pains were unbelievable. Even now I will only have cheese in moderation...

    I wish I could help more, but less then 3 months gluten-free all I can say his hang there. You will feel better. I was on over 10 different Gerd medications the past 3 years. Since the last 9 months I've had 5 different. I didn't find out they weren't helping till I had to stop them 6 weeks ago to have a Fasting Serum Gastrin blood work. GERD medication...

    Check with the hotel about a getting a fridge in your room. The hotel will also be able to tell you about local markets, ask the hotel if they provide a courtesy van to take you. If you are flying pack a soft sided cooler in your luggage with ice packs (you will have to check the luggage not carry on). You could take your own bread, crackers, canned soup...

    Hang in there, take one day at a time. I thought I was loosing my mind, I couldn't focus, concentrate, moody, nasty @ times,short tempered and down right miserable I can tell you it gets better. I still have good days and bad, but it's all in the healing. I'm still going through a barrel of test, because my new GI ordered them. Please take the advise...

    Fresh is always the best, that's what I love. You have many suggestions from others, roasted vegetables (red potatoes, carrots, parsnip, brussel sprout, sweet potato) add a little EVOO and seasoning. Add a piece of protein ( ham, beef, pork, lamb). Add a salad with nuts, dried cranberry or cheese. Your all set, stress free and more time to visit. If you...

    Happy today because my husband made me an awesome dinner tonight, he is on vacation this week but I have to work. He made Scallops Provencal, saute fresh baby spinach and fresh green salad with nuts and cranberries. He's my # 1 support and I'm so thankful for all his support.

    I made several Quiches for Saturday morning breakfast. The Whole Foods gluten-free pie crusts were awesome, buttery, good texture and crumbled. My family couldn't believe they were gluten-free. I'm going to use them next week for my baked Brie.

    Thank you all for your responses, I will have to tweek it next time with extra cream and more egg yolks. The bread was much drier than regular raisin bread. I did not get the custard I was use to. The boyz enjoyed it and it was nice to continue Christmas breakfast gluten-free.
  24. Cathey
    Help.... I make a baked french toast w/ raisin bread for Christmas morning. You layer the bread and pour the eggs, cream, milk and let it soak all night, then bake in the am. It gets a thick custard top and bottom. My question, has anyone had experience with baking Udi's Raisin Bread in a recipe like this? Should I not soak it all night, will the gluten...

    It is when we stop searching the food isle we become ignorant. There is so much more for us in those isle than 30 years ago. Seek and we shall find. Fresh is better, yes it takes more time but with a little planning the family eats better. Network locally, I found a great local Bistro and had my first gluten-free pizza last week it was great. Did I throw...
