I'm new to gluten problems. I have been off of them for about 3 months now and feel much better, that is if I don't cheat. I am having so many problems with being bored of the same chicken, veggies, potatoes. Can anyone help me with some good gluten free food. Naturally that is, I have to stay away from Pamela's cookies and gluten-free browinies....not good for the weight. I need to lose about 15lbs still.

Thanks

Shae

You could have some gluten free yogurt, I eat kroger brand, but yoplait is good too.

Lots of different fruits are a good snack.

Add Brown rice to your dishes, its healthier than white.

Fresh Fish.. Salmon ( good for you fats ) Tilapia, and tuna just for some examples.

You can incorporate nuts as long as you can tolerate them and watch your portion size

Hi -

If you browse the recipe forum you'll be able to find some great recipes using naturally gluten-free foods. You can also get a raw cookbook for some new ideas.

I love spaghetti made with spaghetti squash. Pork chops baked with apples are good. Stirfries are another quick favourite for me. You can make almost anything you used to eat (except for the baked stuff) with a few substitutions.

Indian dal, blanched greens, and rice. Tasty, healthy, and quite variable if you have an indian or pakistani grocery in the area.

Gazpacho? Cucumber and yoghurt soup?

I also make garlic potato salad with smoked paprika, no oil, and scallions. Oh, and garlic.

Penzey's spices help food be more interesting. I am great fan of their spice mixes:Greek, Southwestern,Fajita, etc. I use the rubbed sage to make my own turkey sausage. And they are really reasonably priced.

As much as I love to cook, I am still a creature of habit.

I usually have an egg white omelette in the a.m. with salsa and cheese (or gluten-free cereal with bananas and berries)

For snacks during the day, I have yogurt and gluten-free energy bars (glutino)

For lunch, I usually have turkey and pepperjack sandwiches (with lettuce and mayo) (and kinnikinnick bread). I also have celery, carrots, cucumbers, salad, applesauce, Kozy Shack pudding, yogurt, or Lays Staxx potato chips

Snack is again Yogurt or energy bar or applesauce

Dinner is usually baked chicken with veggies (marinated in Annies Tuscany dressing), Tinkyada pasta with Emeril's or Classico sauces, gluten free turkey meatloaf, steak, pork chops, Chelsea's country fried steak, Ian's chicken nuggets, Amy's Mac N Cheese (really any of Amy's meals are good for lunch or dinner), homemade chicken tenders, mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, potatoes au gratin, thai kitchen noodle dinners, shelton's turkey chili, Imagine soups, Progresso's creamy mushroom soup, tostitos and salsa, Delimex Taquitos, Ore Ida Fast Food French Fries, Carl Buddig Luncheon Meats, Homemade steak/chicken tacos/tostadas/burritos.

That is off the top of my head, LOL

Be careful--Amy's has 2 different mac'n'cheeses, and only one of them is gluten-free~

      My Adult daughter is blaming me for her "possible" Celiac disease.

      When I was first Dg’d I researched like mad. One thing I remember from then, which may have changed with advancement in medical science, is that Coeliac is a first generation disease which means either you or your husband need be Coeliac for your daughter to have inherited it.

      Top Brands of Gluten-Free Pasta

      If the arsenic in rice doesn’t bother you then Tinkyada is the best pasta I recommend. I’ve ate it from day 1 after researching what I could and could not eat, along with locating such foods when first Dg’d. Granted, if you close your eyes while munching on rice pasta you may very well come to reality that it is rice no matter the cuisine you have created with ...

      Oats gluten free?

      The body reacts to all grain proteins in all grains from my observation. Call it Gluten, Gliadin, which is what they test for commonly, however, I am Celiac and react with dermatitis herpetiformis to corn and the glutenous protein in it is called Zein. They only test for Gliadin. Testing needs to be updated in my opinion. It only take a small parts per million...

      Oats gluten free?

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's true that many grains contain proteins that are technically classified as "glutens" (like zein in corn and orzenin in rice), but it's important to clarify that these proteins are not the same as the gluten found in wheat, barley, and rye, which contains gliadin and glutenin. These specific proteins are the ones...

      Oats gluten free?

      I disagree, Lori. Gluten is a particular protein, not a category of proteins. It is found in wheat, barley and rye. Other cereal grains have proteins that resemble gluten to one degree or another but are not gluten. Gluten is gluten. Avenin is avenin. But yes, it is true, that informally speaking, some have used the term "gluten" to refer to the proteins...

Far as I know, and I’m not a scientist just a victim, the amount of gluten (wheat, rye, or barley) one consumes does not cause a person to contract Coeliac Disease. So if neither of you as her biological parents have Coeliac then your daughter cannot pass any blame should she contract this horrific disease.     It’s humbling, and sometimes I believe GOD allows such as these autoimmune diseases for those who need it most.

This is not productive to healing and all grains contain some for gluten like substance. It's called Molecular Mimicry.

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's true that many grains contain proteins that are technically classified as "glutens" (like zein in corn and orzenin in rice), but it's important to clarify that these proteins are not the same as the gluten found in wheat, barley, and rye, which contains gliadin and glutenin. These specific proteins are the ones that trigger an autoimmune response in people with celiac disease. For individuals with celiac disease, the primary concern is avoiding gluten from wheat, barley, and rye, as these are the grains scientifically proven to cause damage to the small intestine. While some people with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity may also react to other grains, this is not universal and varies from person to person. For most people with celiac disease, grains like corn and rice are considered safe and are widely recommended as part of a gluten-free diet. That said, you raise an important point about systemic inflammation and individual tolerance. Some people may indeed have sensitivities to other grains or find that eliminating additional grains helps them feel better. However, it’s crucial to differentiate between celiac disease, which requires strict avoidance of wheat, barley, and rye, and other conditions or sensitivities that may involve broader dietary restrictions.

It's like the term "kleenex" has come to refer to all facial tissues.

      In fact ALL grains contain different forms of gluten that go by different names. Corn contains Zein and Rice contains Orzenin. We all need to realize that a very small amount of any of these grains can cause continued systemic inflammation which is not optimal for allowing the body to heal itself.
