Watcha Making For The 4th?

I was planning on what to make for the 4th of July, so I thought we could start an idea thread?!?

We always have a church BBQ (hamburgers and hotdogs) and potluck. Dishes I don't have to keep hot or cold or that get eaten fast are always nice. It seems there are lots of salads already so I like to think of what kids like to eat too ( mine are grown ;):( ). I only need to pick 1 or 2.

Thoughts so far are:

cupcakes with M&M's on top

baked beans

chips and soda pop

layered bean dip

brownies

ice cream

apple crisp

fruit tray

deviled eggs

Kabobs with pineapple, cheese, olives, etc. on a toothpick

So what ideas do you have?

Layered Taco salad

This is my favorite and it is rare there is anything is left to bring home.

Ooh, I did a layered bean dip last Sunday for Father's Day, and it went fast.

I put pieces of fresh basil leaves instead of cilantro and it gave it a really different, but yummy taste.

I'm not doing anything special. Canned baked beans, maybe some hamburgers. Raw veggies. Might make one of the new Betty Crocker mixes I have. I don't personally eat dessert so I don't care if we have it or not.

      Help Understanding Test Results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thanks for the update! It’s great that your GI is being thorough with the follow-up testing—hopefully the endoscopy will give you clearer answers. The EPI diagnosis is interesting; I’ve read that celiac can sometimes lead to pancreatic issues like EPI due to long-term malabsorption or autoimmune overlap. Have they mentioned if your EPI might improve with a gluten-free diet if celiac is confirmed? Wishing you smooth sailing with the endoscopy tomorrow—let us know how it goes.

      Hi again! I just wanted to update here that the GI redid my bloodwork and the ome value is still high so I'm having an endoscopy tomorrow. I also got diagnosed with EPI which seems to possibly be linked to celiac according to Google.

      How many people here are aware that there are 9 types of gluten that Celiacs should be aware of?

      Reishi and cordyceps are immune modulators, they stop you reacting so much/producing antibodies to lectins. Uptake is better when taken as a tincture, you can buy it pre made as a tincture, usually vodka based, or make your own which is much cheaper. You can find instructions online, basically powdered mushrooms soaked in strong alcohol for a month, shaking regularly. Then the strained mushrooms are heated gently in water for 8 hours, strained again and the water then combined with the first alcohol extract. Some of the properties are water soluble, others require alcohol for extraction. It’s also prescribed for fatigue which is a side effect I’m happy to put up with.

      Not Just Wheat, Barley and Rye Glutens that make us sick

      corn: It is the second most commonly genetically modified food on the planet (soy is #1) Genetic modification of foods continues to kill animals in scientific studies. It is an incomplete protein. It is difficult for humans to digest (ever see corn in your stool?) It is high in calories and low in nutrient value It is a new food to the human genome. It is being used as a staple food for our cattle, fish, chicken, and cars. Cows and fish are not designed to eat grain. (Have you ever seen a fish jump out of a lake into a corn field for supper?) When animals eat corn as a staple they have shorter life spans. Corn fed beef is linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and obesity. Grass fed beef is not. ...

      Corn Gluten vs. Wheat Gluten: Corn gluten (zein) is different from wheat gluten (gliadin), but both are types of gluten.  Inflammatory Response: Some celiac patients have shown an inflammatory response after consuming corn.  Cross-Reactivity: Corn can mimic gluten in sensitive individuals, potentially triggering immune responses similar to those caused by gluten.  Individual Sensitivity: Many individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance find that they can't tolerate corn gluten, even though they avoid wheat, barley, and rye.  Nonresponsive Celiac: Some individuals with celiac disease don't respond well to a gluten-free diet, and this may be due to gluten contamination...
