I wouldn't say its close to the real thing--not a soft thick crust. It is thinner, maybe between chewy and crispy, depending on how long you cook it. That aside, I really like using the crust alot. I probably use it most of the time for me because its 1. fast (no yeast to deal with etc) and 2. tastes good. However, if you are going to be *really* picky about texture etc... you might want to try a yeast based mix first.

I use it exclusivly. I have a receipe for one (yeast free) but it is so chewy. It isn't "normal" like Jen said but for me, it works and is very easy.

Bette Hagman has an excellent recipe for pizza crust that is really easy to make and turns out absolutely delicious. It's the closest thing to "normal" pizza that we've tried. Even my husband enjoys this treat, my friends couldn't even tell the difference (and the one girl works at Pizza Hut). If you want the recipe, PM me. It's the Easy Pizza recipe in Bette Hagman's Gluten Free Gourmet Cookbook. I didn't like the Chebe crust, so after about 10 different recipes, this is the one I settled on.

Just about right for 2 people.

I was a pastry/bread baker pre-diagnosis and made homemade pizza every Sunday night for my family. It took me 3 years (and MANY failed/nasty crusts) to come up with a recipe that even my father (who does not have celiac and is probably the pickiest eater on the planet) likes. If you are interested-send me an email and I will get the recipe to you!

Re: Chebe-I think it makes a decent breadstick, but not a great pizza crust

I actually really like Chebe, but my favorite is Cause Your Special World Famous Pizza Crust (or something like that). Mmmmm...

Used to eat Chebe until I found out I was also allergic to dairy and eggs. Can I make a decent crust with the mix by substituting for the eggs and cheese (asked for on some packages of Chebe)? I don't want to buy it and try it if you'all have already concluded it doesn't work. Thanks!

I make it without dairy. I just use rice milk and leave out the cheese. I'm thinking an egg replacer wouldn't be too much of a problem, but I'm not an expert on that...

      Second child with Celia

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      After my 3 year old daughter's diagnosis, we all got tested. My 5 year old son also came back positive with number 12x the upper limit.  We will confirm with another tTG and the other 2 tests in the panel.  He has zero symptoms that I have noticed. Maybe occasionally vomiting. He does have asthma. He's kind of an a**hole sometimes but also he's 5. He has SO much energy. Like miles and miles of biking, running, gymnastics. Never stops. Eats great, normal growth. It was comparing my daughter to him that made me push to figure out what was wrong with her!  Is it possible for a tTG test to just be totally wrong?

      European travel with Celiac Disease

      By CJF · Posted

      I'm heading to the UK for a vacation the end of this month on a tour with Road Scholar. I haven't been out of the US since my diagnosis so I'm a little concerned about exposure to gluten during my travels. Most of our meals are provided by the tour. Either the hotels we are staying at, or places we will visit. Road Scholar is aware of my dietary needs as well. Any helpful hints about navigating the restaurants in England is greatly appreciated. Also are there any medications out there to help mitigate the effects of exposure to gluten? Thanks in advance.

      Were the two tests done by the same lab? Do the tests have the same normal ranges?  Each test manufacturer uses their own system of units when reporting results. Have your results gone down at all since diagnosis?  Are you sure you’re gluten free? Do you eat at restaurants? I would recommend that you take a really good look at your gluten free diet. It took six years for me to get all my results down to the normal range (I was originally positive for TTG IgA, TTG IgG, DGP IgA, DGP IgG and EMA). I started just avoiding wheat, rye and barley.  My results came down but one was still high.  Then I made sure any processed foods were labeled gluten free.  My results came down more but one was stubbornly positive.  Then I would only eat processed foods if certified gluten free or from a manufacturer with an excellent reputation among those with celiac disease.  All my results were finally normal. My results went back up a little when I started doing a lot of baking with a reputable but not certified gluten free flour.  When I switched to certified gluten free flour my results went back down to normal.

      is Kirkland Imported French Brie gluten freeL

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      As a more generalized response to your question, I've been contacting Costco customer service for several Kirkland products because they are either unlabeled or contain the generic warning label about being packaged in a facility that handles all major food allergens. Each time I ask, my question is assigned to a specific person who researches it and emails me an actionable response that says, more or less, "no risk", "possible risk", or "definite risk". All of the answers have the caveat in the example below. Also, they recommend that you buy the product, submit the question ***with the lot # of your purchase*,** and then return it if you don't like the risk profile. This is because some products are made at different facilities with different risk profiles. Here is an example of a recent email response: "This is [name] with the Costco Member Service Resolutions Team. I am happy to let you know we got a reply back from our Kirkland Signature team. Here is their response: This item is gluten free. This information reflects the sender's knowledge on the date the information is being provided. Ingredients and processes are subject to change without notice. I hope this satisfies your inquiry about  [product name and stock #]. If you have a follow up question for me about this item please don’t hesitate to ask. I am happy to help! If I do not hear back from you within 48 hours I will consider this case closed. " Like pretty much every food source, you have to decide who you trust and then live with that. I tend to trust these responses because a person investigates it, their answers are detailed (not generic), and also because sometimes they say "nah, don't eat it". Hope this helps.
