We are having a work brunch Christmas get together on a Thursday. Bring a gift, get a gift sort of thing and so everything listed I can not eat with the exception of the fruit. I want to make something quick and easy to make and take the morning of so I can eat things other than fruit. I am up at 7, to work by 8:30 and our brunch is at 10:00. Any ideas?????? <_<

Thank you in advance.

I like to keep hardboiled eggs in the fridge. A couple of those peeled and sliced in a container would be good. Excellent source of protein as well! Can you do dairy? Cottage cheese with fruit, yogurt with fruit, etc. There are also frozen gluten-free waffles, Vans, I believe. I bought some that were berry waffles and I had my non-celiac friends salivating at the smell of them. They are so yummy, even without syrup.

I dislike work-related functions that center around food. I always feel like the discussion ends up being about my food and celiac.

Make some homemade cinnamon rolls

Bring Bacon

Fruit Salad's always go over well.

or Ambrosia Salad

Maybe a crustless quiche. I really like them and you could make it the night before. It is not too difficult to make the morning of the event.

I have also seen a recipe using hashbrowns for a crust, but that would make it a little more time consuming to make.

I make the hashbrowned crusted quiche all the time, use frozen hashbrowns. I bake smaller versions in 2 cup ramikins and refrigerate--they heat up really well!! (just microwave for a bit) and are great for those who want/need portion control.

I do the quiche:

Frozen hashbrowns

gluten-free sausage links(8)

eggs

milk

chedder cheese

On bottom of 8x8 place hashbrowns(just enough to cover bottom..more if you like)

Cook sausage links in micro, then cut into pieces and place on top of hashbrowns

in mixer mix 6 egss, 1 C milk, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper, 1 TBLsp dried parsley flakes..mix well and pour on top of sausage and hashbrowns

Top with shredded mild chedder

Bake at 350 for 45-55 min...watch for cheese to get bubbly

You cna make this the night before it heats up well!

My fave is the breakfast scramble. do this the night before, then the morning of, you heat it in the microwave, and take to work in a crock pot:

Scramble about a dozen eggs, with salt and pepper to taste (I also add chives to mine)

Toast some tater tots in the oven (or hash browns, if you rather)

cook some sausages (or turkey bacon, or cubed ham)

toss together. Sprinkle cheese over top, heat until cheese melts. Serve. Accept raves.

My kids like it so much, they're requesting it for Christmas brunch.

Thank you for your ideas. I have never made quiche before but there is always a first time. If it turns out well I may make it for Christmas for the family. Kids are always up for food. Thanks again!

I am eyeing up the quinche too. It looks like something I might think about sharing at our next work breakfast.

I just made one for a ladies brunch the other day...

8 eggs

1/2 cup sour cream

1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese

1/3 cup salsa

mix REALLY well. Pour in a greased 8" dish or pie plate - bake 25-30 minutes until set and puffed.

MMMMM....now I want more!

I also made gluten free donut holes. I know it's too late for tomorrow, but I can post the recipe for anyone who would like it.

      I will never have a formal diagnosis.

      Hi, Travel Celiac, After several years of gastro problems, reading Wheat Belly, and some other books, tracking my food, and finally swearing off wheat, barley, and rye, (for years), I went to a gastroenterologist.  I insisted on being tested for celiac disease, including genetic testing, and the answer he gave was an email:  "You do not have celiac disease."  I was very confused and wanted to understand more.  I insisted on getting the full report from him from the lab.  I read and researched and read and researched everything I could find.  It can't be diagnosed from the blood test if you are not eating gluten, which I wasn't.  I am not willing to eat gluten for a month to get another blood test.  The risks are too disgusting to deal with.  People can test positive and not be having any problems at all. The genetics are not black or white either.  Apparently, there is a gene "dose effect."  You could have a strong genetic profile, or a lot of the genes, or just one allele on one gene.  DLQ2 or DLQ8, or something.  Whether celiac disease or "gluten sensitivity," or "Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity," presents itself, apparently, can depend on your gene dose, your age, your gender, or having a stressful life, maybe.  I raised my daughter by myself and am still battling poverty, political worry, family and childhood abuse, (no drug or alcohol problems, thank goodness).  This gluten problem is, apparently, mostly a female issue, as well, 2 to 1 female.  The medical establishment does not put an equal amount of resources into female medicine as it does to men's medicine, no matter how far we've come.  Anyway, I never had problems till the last few years (I am 64).  BTW I threw away my lab report after many years of filing it away.  I had the one allele on one gene, DLQ2 or 8, IDK. Too frustrated with providers giving me that blank stare when I try to talk to them about it.  They don't believe me!

      Yes, though histamine itself may not taste salty, histamine is present in mucus and tears which contain sodium chloride because salt is a great antimicrobial.

      I was just reading about Miracle Whip on the forum here.  I, too, have a reaction to modified food starch, even if something is labeled gluten free.  I was Googling about it, and apparently it can be inflammatory because of the method of manufacturing, not just whether or not it has wheat in it.  I DO NOT eat anything with maltodextrin in it, either, even if labeled gluten free.  It can be made from wheat or corn, apparently, but you can't always tell.  Gets me every time, and also now becoming aware of the modified food starch.  I am getting worse the older I get. I am 64 now -- this gluten reaction started in me when I was 57 or so.  Started slowly, but after starting to track my food intake... became painfully obvious.  I always loved bread, all kinds.  I could eat anything.  Not anymore.  Wheat thins gave me a blow-out.  Didn't want to believe it.  Tried again...OMG.  Serious blow-out while I was out walking at a park--people all over the place.  I didn't know until I went in the restroom.  OMG.  Wheat thins have wheat, obviously, and also barley malt syrup or flour or something.  A double WHAMMY.  Then I knew.  No more gluten!  And it's so challenging to do that.  Also, I probably have microscopic colitis.  No more NSAIDS, muscle relaxants, Celebrex (celecoxib), SSRI's, caramel color, maltodextrin, modified food starch, vitamins with that whitener chemical, and many other pills.  Doctors always said to increase fiber intake!  Take Metamucil!  OMG it has maltodextrin in it.  Back before I knew to avoid it.  Take anything your "provider" says with a grain of salt.  You know your body better than anyone else.

      After looking at Google images, the spleen is on the upper left abdomen, too!  An organ, part of the lymphatic system for immune function.  A filter.  Wonder how this relates to gluten sensitivity?
