Gillians French Rolls

Big Bear Nat'l Foods in Morrisville, PA - the store I frequent - has just started carrying Gillians rolls. I'm so excited because so many of you seem to enjoy them.

But I'm not very creative....and all I can think of is using it as a typical sandwich roll......

Have any of you gotten creative with your rolls? I think someone posted that they make makeshift pizzas with their Gillians? Do you grill it? Broil? Will they stand up to that or crumble?

Thanks!

I love the rolls as a sandwhich. After microwaving them I cut them into thirds and make one sandwhich and eat the other piece as toast. Sometimes I make cinnamion toast out of it by buttering it after I get it out of the micro and putting CSugar mixture on it and its good... I havent tried pizza but I am thinking it would work good in the oven.

I like them toasted with cream cheese and jelly on them

I also like them for sandwiches and mini pizzas

they are great for hamburger buns!

I posted this a couple days ago, so sorry for repeating but maybe it was missed. I'm in love with Gillian's rolls, and was really happy to find them at Trader Joe's! They are TJ's brand, but they are definitely Gillian's rolls (TJ's does this). Much cheaper! $3.50 or something - what a bargain!

I eat Gillian's rolls with just about anything. They make a killer egg mcmuffin substitute. I think they have kind of a sweet taste to them, so I also like them with a curry tofu salad that I make (just crumbled tofu, mayo, raisins, and curry to taste- you can sub chicken for the tofu). Yummyyyyy.

      Possible (Non)-celiac gluten sensitivity(?)

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @green-blossom! You can develop active celiac disease at any stage of life. It involves possessing the genetic potential plus some triggering stress event that turns the relevant genes on. NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) is 10x more common than celiac disease but some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. There is no test at this point in time available to diagnose NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. The difference between the two conditions is that celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel but NCGS does not. They share many of the same symptoms. Without formal testing, there is no real way to definitively diagnose celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop active celiac disease. So, DNA testing can only be used as a rule out measure, not as a diagnostic measure. Formal testing for celiac disease is normally a two step process. The first step is serum antibody testing. The inflammation of the small bowel lining caused by gluten ingestion in those with celiac disease produces characteristic antibodies that can be detected in the blood. If one or more celiac antibody tests are positive, there is usually a second step of diagnosis involving and endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to microscopically check for damage to the mucosal lining. This is done for confirmation of the antibody testing but it sometimes foregone if antibody test scores are extremely high. Please hear this. If you intend to pursue formal testing for celiac disease, you must be consuming generous amounts of gluten leading up to the testing dates. That applies both to the serum antibody testing and to the endoscopy/biopsy. If you eliminate gluten from your diet ahead of testing for even a period of weeks, the inflammation will cease, antibodies will begin to disappear and healing of the small bowel lining will begin. In other words, the things the diagnostic testing is designed to look for will disappear.

      Possible (Non)-celiac gluten sensitivity(?)

      Hi everyone, I am new here, and have some questions. I recently discovered that ~15 minutes after eating durum wheat semolina pasta, I get a strange feeling in my stomach area. I have been struggling with stomach aches, bloating and difficulty with bowel movements etc for about 10 years now (im in my mid twenties.) I have tried a lot to fix this, apart from adjusting my diet. Unfortunately I can't cook and mostly eat pasta, pizza, burgers and so on. I tried a lot of other things to fix it, like working out, yoga, meditation and so on. It helps a bit, although I never really felt relaxed in my stomach area, which caused a lot of problems in everyday life. I tried going gluten free for one day. Everything I normally eat, but gluten-free. And I felt much better all day and had no problems with stomach aches or bloating. Now my question is: Could this be a case of celiac disease in my case? (I only 'suffer' from digestive symptoms) ... and is it possible to develop this during 'puberty' or at other stages of life in general? No one in my family has coeliac condition. I didn't have the problem until I was 15. When I was 20, a lot of bad things happened and I was very unhappy and also had IBS symptoms due to extreme stress. Should I see a doctor and is it safe to switch to a gluten-free diet for now?  Thank you.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The only issue with that approach, is that some restaurants may not want to serve you--if you say you get violently ill, or have a deadly allergy, etc.--remember, at least here in California, businesses can decline to serve you.

      @llisa, have you also been diagnosed with celiac disease? You don't actually say but we have assumed that.

      Gluten free vitamins

      By llisa · Posted

      I had bariatric surgery in 2018. My doctor put me on multiple vitamins, D3, and calcium (in the form of 2 Tums daily). My endocrinologist monitors my levels of these things, as well as my diabetes and Hashimoto's.
