Outback...

Well I had my first outback experience! Yummy, I had the alice springs chicken with a baked potato. Now I don't usually EVER eat things smothered in cheese and bacon. BUT! I haven't eaten a decent meal out since I was diagnosed last month, so I was all over that like a rat on a cheeto!!!!! The server said "do you mind if I ask what gluten is" ugh, I didn't want to get into it so I just briefly described it to her. I got a tad paranoid, so I asked the manager (who just happened to pass by the table) if he could make sure my ticket was marked gluten free. She had no way of knowing when she brought the bread that I have celiac, but she almost slammed it right down in front of me, I caught a big whiff and it smelled so good :( To sum it up thanks to all for the advice, I had a great experience, I left fat, dumb, and happy.... :D ( and most important not sick!)

Oooohhhh... Glad you had such a great experience (minus the bread incident). That's become one of my all-time favorite restaurants over the past year. Yum. Did you have the chocolate thunder?

Ah... We made that mistake with Tori once. Never again! However, I have to admit, the chocolate thunder is worth the hyperactivity. He he he.

Yay! I was just going to dig up that other thread to ask how your dinner went.

I'm glad that everything went well, despite your server's lack of knowledge on the gluten-free menu.

Definitely get the Thunder next time - or at least bring it home with you for later!!!

:blink: Okay, we went again tonight. I was too busy to put together a huge fuss tonight, plus this damned insomnia has me wiped out! Anyhow....the food took forever, so being a server before I knew they screwed up somehow. When the food finally came we had 2 managers hovering over us offering us all this free dessert, and our waitress just disappeared from that point on. It all turned out okay in the long run so no big deal. I'm glad they took the time to correct whatever it was that happened instead of bringing it out to the table with a bun on it....I think that may have been irritating...and why every time we go, do they put the little cutting board with bread on it right in front of me? Lol....Eating out certainally is interesting now isn't it...

Oh I got that last time I went! I also normally wouldn't order chicken smothered with cheese and bacon, and to be honest had never even glanced at it on the menu. But after hearing everyone on here rave about it I decided to give it a try. YUMMY!!!!! So not something I would think I'd like but damn that is good! LOL!

The first time I went I had the alice chicken, yummmyyyy :P I actually made it at home and it was very easy to do. The honey mustard sauce I got was frenchs, not as good as the outbacks but it was good enough :D

If that honey mustard sauce is the same as their honey mustard salad dressing.. you can get the receipe on the site topsecretreceipes.com. I made it last week and it was out of this world. Someone posted the thread on here about that web site.. you can get a lot of receipes free, some you have to pay for.. but the salad dressings at the outback are free!

Sure.. here is the recipe

Outback Steakhouse Honey Mustard Dressing.. I am not sure if its the exact same thing.. I havent had the real one in a while.. but here is the recipe that I made

1/2 cup mayo

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons dijon mustard

Combine all ingredients. Cover and chill.

Thats it. pretty simple. I really like it. Like I said, I am not sure how close it is to the Outback dressing.. but I find this great.

Enjoy!

I make these great chicken tenders in the oven..I mix the gluten-free gorilla crunch cereal and gluten-free corn flakes, crush them up nice and fine add a little salt, pepper, garlic powder..then dip the chicken tenders in honey, coat with the cereal then bake in the oven till done and crispy[high oven, around 375-400]..I put them on a cookie sheet with the non stick Reynolds wrap, spray extra cooking spray cause the honey is so sticky..then make the dip on the side to dunk..YUMMY!!

I´m glad you have good experiences with Outback. I went on wednesday this week and I almost cry when I saw that amazing bread on the table. I took a deep breath and ask for the gluten free menu. I order the outback special with a cesar salad...... when the salad came.... it has croutons in it, I wanted to kill someone. They change it and brought one without bread. For dessert: instead of "the thunder", I ordered the sundae and it was unbelivable!!!!.

      Celiac or not?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?

      So the way it should be used is to take it before possible gluten exposure, so right before a meal at a restaurant take 1-2 capsules. Unfortunately taking it 1 hour or more after an exposure is too late.

      Do I really need to get a biopsy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, and thank you for sharing your detailed experience. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot over the past several months, and it’s understandable to feel frustrated after navigating unclear diagnoses and conflicting advice. Since you’ve found relief with a gluten- and corn-free diet, it might be worth continuing that approach for now, especially given your current commitments to culinary classes. You could consider working with a knowledgeable dietitian or a gastroenterologist who specializes in food intolerances and celiac disease to explore potential intolerances or other conditions without immediately reintroducing gluten. If confirming celiac disease is important for your long-term health management, you could plan for an endoscopy during a less busy period, ensuring you follow the gluten challenge protocol beforehand. In the meantime, prioritizing your well-being and avoiding known triggers seems like a practical step. Always advocate for yourself with doctors, and seek second opinions if needed—your health concerns are valid. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
