loco-ladi replied to KnightRobby's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

ARCHIVED Need Help Finding Specific Cookbooks (Or Recipes)
loco-ladi replied to Oria's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have become a big fan of "Roasted" veggies and just started getting into the stir fry thing since I found Kikkoman's gluten-free terriaki sauce... best thing about making your own chinese food at home is you can use whatever veggies you like! also try a new veggie cooked/eaten a different way... never have liked leeks but have to admit they do taste good... -

Spent a week in Arizona started in Safford/Thatcher... the Denny's there is the only restraunt with a gluten-free menu... NOT a fun expirience, but the owner called me today at home and we discussed their problems (outdated gluten-free menu, poor service) when I return in the spring I will return to the restraunt to see if they have improved... however their... -

loco-ladi replied to jenhunter's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

ARCHIVED Tired Of Relatives In Denial About Celiac/gluten Problems
loco-ladi replied to Tidings's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I grew a thick skin.... i also got really good at telling my dr what i would and would not do (no he doesn't like it but since he is still taking my money guess he isn't that upset about it) I have gotten really good at exiting from social situations in a timely manner wihtout making my hostess feel guilty.

The begining is hard to deal with, my advice dont try to do everything in one day! start small and work at small changes daily.... Start with cleaning out the pantry..... read all labels and gift what you cant use to a friend or food pantry, no sense in it going to waste you paid good money for it Second step, now that your pantry is empty clean... -
AHHHH salad my "go to" meal at a restraunt..... how bland of a meal can you get, lol I also would add be wary of the added meats along with almost everything else that has much taste, but in a pinch it fills the tummy.
