Help! I have officially run out of things to eat! If someone has any gluten/sugar/yeast free recipes I would appreciate it! Product suggestions would be great as well!

My diet is generally some minor variation of this:

Breakfast - creamy buckwheat cereal with almond milk

Lunch - big salad w/ veggies and beans

Snack - white grapefruit or yogurt or rice cakes with almond butter

Dinner - veggie and/or chicken stir fry with brown rice or beans and rice

Snack - nuts or pumpkin seeds or popcorn

I can't eat quinoa or amaranth right now because I recently got sick after eating amaranth and psychologically I can't handle the consistency.

Help!!! :unsure:

Hi Mrs. M-

Are you recently diagnosed? I felt like I was in a food rut in the beginning too.

Here are some things I eat semi-regularly...

Breakfast: gluten-free cereals, yogurts, fruits, fruit smoothie shakes, eggs, breakfast burritos made w/ rice tortillas, breakfast pizza topped with scrambles eggs- gluten-free sausage- cheese-etc, omelets, gluten-free pancakes, muffins, frozen gluten-free waffles, gluten-free bagels and cream cheese, quiche, cinn french toast

Lunch: rice tortillas w/ tuna or gluten-free meats, gluten-free hot dog, gluten-free pizza, soups of all kinds chowders- homemade and store-bought, rice cakes with tuna, gluten-free pasta salad w/ pepperoni (hormel)- cheese- tomatoes- black olives- broccoli, chili, cold rice salad, tomato-cucumber salad

Dinner: eggplant parm, chicken parm, gluten-free pasta w/ tomato sauce or pesto, shrimp and veggie grilled kabobs, "breakfast dinner"- see above!, risotto (my fav), turkey- mashed potatoes-stuffing(cornbread), grilled zucchini, greens, spanish rice. meatballs, lasagna, paella, quiche, stuufed chick breasts, stuffed peppers, meatloaf, spaghetti squash, portabella pizzas

Snacks: blue corn chips w/ hummus or olive tapenade or salsa or guacamole, veggie dips & veggies, stuffed mushrooms, jalepeno poppers, smooshed fruit snacks, cocoloco bars, m&m's, fruit kabobs

I left out the sweets because you mentioned no sugar. Just some ideas- good luck

Thanks for the tips, but it's not actually the gluten free part of the diet that's so difficult for me - I actually have a pretty good handle on that part! It's the candida part that's making my day to day eating so difficult! I can't have any sugar, including fruit sugar. Nor can I have yeast. So all of the gluten free breads and cereals (that I've found, anyway) are out.

I forgot to mention that I react to stevia because I'm allergic to ragweed...

I thought mushrooms were out on this diet? They are a fungus and it helps feed the candida, please correct me if I have this wrong. Mushrooms were one of my fav things, I have such a hard tme eating them anymore, I seem to get very ill after I do. No breads, very limited dairy, only yogurt.

Also, you have m&m's listed, and fruit kabobs....I thought they were a no no too? I was told pretty much vegetables, no potatoes, and meats, some fruits could be added in after a couple of weeks.

You are correct - the diet includes no mushrooms, no fruit, no chocolate, no potatoes, no yeast, no soy, no bread.

You can see why I'm strapped for ideas!!!

If anyone has a recipe for gluten free/yeast free bread, I would appreciate it! I'm not even sure such a thing is possible!

juliela,

perhaps you are unfamiliar with a candida diet. in your list, most of these are not applicable.

Mrs.M,

what about pancakes (or flatbread)? you can have them savory - even like zucchini cakes and stuff like that.

nori rolls?

the pizza dough in Mission in the Kitchen is yeast free, if that helps...

are you egg free? i forget if you're vegan.... yet.

I'm not familiar with this diet . . . but I was getting ready to suggest Chebe bread to a friend of mine whose son is allergic to everything under the sun.

It's ingredients are Manioc (tapioca) flour, modified manioc starch, dry milk, iodine-free salt

To prepare, add oil, eggs, cheese and water. Can you have eggs & cheese?

The only dairy I do is yogurt with added acidopholus. I know there is a Chebe mix that is milk free. Is there anything you could substitute in place of cheese??

I just leave it out, and adjust the liquid.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. 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.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!
