I love bake beans, but for us the small can is not enough and the big can is too much. We also use bushes and add extras. I have made a large batch and let simmer. I buy the ziplock tupperware containers, that are about a 1/2 to 3/4 cup and fill them with beans and freeze them. Then just microwave the container. That way use can freeze what ever amount is good for you and you only have to cook the bacon and chopped and onion once. You keep reusing the containers. The key is to make sure you have enough liquid in them, cause they do cook up more when you microwave them. Hope this helps.

Fritolay.com has some interesting recipes using their frito chips. I have not tried any of these, but I do think some of them do look good. If you want to see go to fritolay.com go under meal ideas and then recipes.

Some of the recipes seem safe to try.

I use the pizza pizzazz machine.I really like it for homemade pizza. It allows you to cook the bottom of the crust longer if you need to, with out over cooking the top of the pizza.I have found some gluten free crusts need to cook longer then others. I grease the pan and sprinkle corn meal. I have never had trouble with it sticking. This is one of my favorite gluten free meals. These machines I think are around $30 now. I use my a couple of times a week, so it was a good investment for me. Hope this helps.

Has any one had to quit work to recover? Sometimes I find it very hard to put in an eight hour day because of the way I feel. But if you don't work full time it is hard to have insurance, which is what I need right now. When I am at work I never know when my stomach will act up, which only adds to the stress of working. I would like to work at home, but it is hard to find anything that pays well. Any ideas?

Does anyone else have trouble with a bloated stomach? Even when I lose weight, I still can't lose it around by abs. I have trouble finding pants to fit. I have to buy bigger sizes for my stomach and then they are baggy in legs. I can't stand anything tight on my stomach. I wear stretch pants now instead of jeans, which I hate. This has only been since I have started having all these stomach troubles. Is anyone else bothered by this?

I am interested in finding out what bread mixes or bread that is already baked, that anyone has found to work out well for them. It cost so much to keep buying new ones.

Also does anyone try to take bread with them when going to fast food places and change the buns on hamburgers?

Thanks
