You may well be correct that I am becoming more sensitive to spicy foods now that I am gluten free. I have eaten other salsa and chips since going on the gluten-free diet without any problems. That is why my first thought was that the chips were not as gluten free as they said I will continue to monitor my reaction to different products and still talk...

This is only my second month on a gluten free diet, so I wasn't even aware there are test strips. Can you tell me about them please and where I would purchase them?

I was so excited the other day when I found that Albertson's store brand, Essentials, nacho cheese chips were labeled as Gluten Free. I dearly love nacho chips with salsa. They also had barbeque chips and sour cream/onions chips. Well, I had some nacho chips and salsa and trust me, it was NOT gluten free. Granted, I also had a new salsa labeled as gluten...

Progresso makes a good chicken and rice soup that is gluten free and not spicy. I have it all the time.

Hi Chef Patterson, My gripe about eating out is pasta or Italian food. I used to love the lasagna at Johnny Carino's which I can no longer have. Many Italian dishes can be converted with gluten free pasta and a little imagination. And I definitely agree about the cannoli's !!!

After only a month being gluten free, I still keep finding things in the pantry that I ether have to get rid of or wash thoroughly before using again. I came across my rolling pin and it hit me that I used it for pie dough. I haven't made an pie for a couple of years now but still, it was used with wheat flour. The rolling pin is of hard maple...

Can't wait to share it! I haven't come across the "gluten uninformed" yet since I am only 1 month gluten free, but I am certain I will....

I was just wondering if anyone had experience regarding baking with oat flour as compared to rice flour? We have an a small company here in my town called Gluten Free Harvest which is a dedicated gluten free oat processing plant. They started the plant because their daughter has Celiac disease and saw the need for a dedicated oat processing plant with...

I thought they might have a giant loaf. I was at my local restaurant ordering breakfast and figuring out what I can eat when the waitress said they had Udi's bread. I ordered it and it was so much bigger than the loaf I had at home. I guess I will have to put in a special request for the Udi's giant loaf at my local Albertson's and see if they can get...

I just purchased the Canyon Bakehouse cinnamon raisin bread and found it to be the same way. It wasn't the worst texture bread I have ever had but I would put it in the average category. It had a great flavor though. Maybe different types of bread from the same company are better like the 7 grain. I will give that a try. Otherwise I will stick with Udi...

I am finding that gluten free does not equate to low fat content. I think this has been covered before on this forum but felt it was worth bringing up again. I have had a bit higher cholesterol reading since going through menopause which is normal but my doctor wants to get it lower with diet and exercise. This was all before I found out I am gluten...

Great to know that Schar's ciabatta rolls. I purchased them two days ago at my local grocery store and cannot wait to give them a try. I found with Udi's hamburger buns it is best to heat them in a 325 oven for about 5 minutes which crisps up the outside nicely. I might try the same thing with the ciabatta rolls. Most stores provide request cards for...

I have used both Johnsonville chicken and apple sausage and Aidells chicken and apple sausage in a Pasta Fagioli Soup recipe and not had any reaction to it. Both say Gluten free on the packages but they are not certified gluten free. You might want to check their other sausage types and flavors to verify they also say gluten free.

I have used the Barilla for awhile now and really like it. It cooks up well and reheats well with a little water added before microwaving. Walmart had a great price on the Barilla gluten free so I stocked up. I do have a box of Ronzoni so now I am anxious to try it to see how it compares. DeLallo also makes a gluten free imported Italian Orzo (used...

I had the same question about Lawry's Chili or Taco mix. The Lawry's ingredients list showed wheat and that is when I found out McCormick made a gluten free version of both. I found out from the representative that their other products are made in the same factory where wheat is processed into other products. It may be okay to use the Marinade since that...
