    What would you use instead of eggs ? Flax meal and water ? Will it stick ? Or could you just roll it in honey ? And how much honey and ginger would you use ? I've never cooked with either.

    Do you think they dipped the fish in egg then rolled it in sliced hazelnuts ?

    This just popped into my head ... How about your warm winter clothes or blankets from last season ?

    Well, the fried millet tortillas were yummy. Thanks for your help ... My batter did not stick together well though, so I had to leave them 1/4 inch thick. I'm thinking it needs another ingredient to help bind it. Maybe corn binds together better than millet. And as for the baked tortilla shell, it is now in the freezer waiting to...

    Thanks, I am headed to make this right now ... I'll let you know I how I did

    I'm new to this too, but I ate out every day for about 6 weeks a month ago. It was very embarrassing at first, but you'll get the hang of it. Just to keep yourself safe, I would recommend going to a restaurant with a gluten free menu. Chili's, Carrabas, Outback is all I can remember right now. I ate at Cracker Barrell, Picaddilly and Red Lobster...

    For fast relief, as in 5 - 10 minutes, I use a suppository. Fleece makes a good one. And I know Walmart has it. Enemas were painful for me, but suppositories weren't. And no worries about cramping.

    Yum ... Thanks ... I have guacamole ingredients I need to use today ... Lorka, Can you tell me how you cook them. What do you cook them in ? Temp ? And are those the only two ingredients ? No oil, salt ?? Laurie, Thanks a lot. I'll look for those. I don't remember doing well with tapioca flour 9 months ago when I tested it, but...

    I'm craving tortilla chips and guacamole, but I can't have any corn, dairy, eggs or soy. Does anyone have a recipe or any ideas on how to make these ? I've been using potato chips, but it is getting old. Thanks ... marcia My guacamole recipe is : avocado, parsley, tomatoes, cilantro, onions, jalapeno, lime and lemon juice, and S &...

    It's starting to look that way to me too ... My vision has been fine the last couple of days How is it possible the gluten affects the eyes ? It affected my legs, I don't know why I am surprised ... GEESH !!!! My daughter was home for Thanksgiving and ate frozen wheat pancakes in my house. "I'm sorry, dear. I don't know how those pancakes...

    ARCHIVED Scared To Eat

    I've been eating baked chicken lately ... I discovered those plastic bags you can cook in I buy the hormone free, free range chickens at publix .. I think several of us here digest those best ... I just take a whole chicken, rinse it, put it in a bag in a roaster pan, Add s & p, paprika, garlic pwdr, onion pwdr and bake at 350 degrees for...

    I take a pre cooked grain (buckwheat, quinoa, millet - I keep these ready in the freeze) and add cinamon, chopped apple, flax seed oil, honey, raw pumpkin seeds, raw sunflower seeds and hemp seeds. yum ... I like this topped with lentil sprouts or mung bean sprouts too. And I make stir frys all time. I use the above gluten-free grains or brown rice...

    Thanks. I just forwarded the web address to my family ... The more they know the more the understand ... Marcia

    I feel for you .. The food list I could digest was pathetic too. I'm 5'5" and I was down to 105 when I finally got things going the right way. I could not handle ensure at all. Not even if I cut it in half with water. But, you might want to try it. And I could not digest any vitamins at first. I am experimenting with Poly Vi Sol infant vitamins...

    I'm hypoglycemic, so I came up with this. It is loaded with protein. I used to eat the 11 grain bread before going on this diet, so that is what I was trying to do. I'm not one to spend a lot of time perfecting a recipe, but I made this and loved the taste. If you find a way to get this to rise, I'd be very interested 1 cup chick peas (ground...

    Patti, I am sorry to hear about this ... wish him the best from me ... Marcia If it makes you feel any better, I know a woman who has been through cancer 3 times and is doing great.

    I was diagnosed with CFS/FM back in 1990 and I have gotten rid of several of my symptoms too. Pretty cool, isn't it ?? I'm still working on the fatigue, but I was glutened (CC) from eating out from Sept till the first of Nov.. But, about the FM, I find that losing sleep will cause my fibro to hurt every time. And your husband is not going...

    Sorry, I just found this ... I could not walk any distance without feeling like my legs were heavy. If I pushed myself and walked anyway, they got heavier and heavier. Eventually my right foot would start to drag. I used a motorized cart most of the time when I went grocery shopping. I actually owned one back in 1993 - 1998, because I was sooooo...

    I am still more tired than I feel is normal for my age and I have been on this diet since September 2005. However, I felt completely healthy for 2 weeks in October. So, I know it can happen. I have not had the urge to sleep. But, before going gluten free I went wheat free and discovered it was making me sleepy ... Have you looked at other...

    You really have to chew these down to nothing. I was / am guilty of not chewing my food completely so I had to learn how to eat slowly. Saliva is your body's natural digestive enzyme and is the first step in the digestive process, so it is important to start here. This is why they tell you not to drink when you eat. Raw seeds and nuts are loaded...

    Celiac disease flattens the villi in your small intestines thus causing a variety of digestive symptoms. If this heals properly (it normally does), you will start to digest foods again. I had to eliminate soy, dairy, eggs and corn to get my digestive problems under control, but not everyone does. You can still be intolerant or allergic to the...

    Common sensitivities are wheat, corn, dairy, soy and eggs. It is because they are found in abundance in our foods. It is actually easier in my opinion to eat fresh veggies, fruit and meat. It requires cooking, but at least you know what you are getting. And figuring out your intolerances is a lot easier. Marcia

    I had trouble digesting nuts when I first started eating them. But, I eat about 4 oz a day of a mix of raw hazelnuts, almonds, pecans, cashews, walnuts, brazil nuts and macadamia and I am fine with it. The cooked ones are still too harsh for me, but I can eat the raw. I actually got sores on my tongue from walnuts in the beginning, but I don't anymore...

    What a great idea having an article about kids dealing with celiac. But, I read where Mollie eats Mc Donald's fries and I thought they had gluten ???
