It's been a BUSY week. I am heading to the cabin for Labor Day weekend and just realized I need to provide a salad for a family get together. Anyone have an EASY, gluten free (or just no gluten used) salad I could quick mixes up of any kind. I leave this afternoon-YIKES! :)

Thanks!

Bean salad

4 cans of assorted beans (chickpeas, green beans, kidney beans, black beans)

red onion

green pepper

Italian dressing

Rinse the beans. Chop the onion and pepper. Dump it all in a bowl and add dressing.

Cucumber salad

2 cucumbers peeled and sliced

1 sweet onion sliced

equal amount water and vinegar

sugar, salt, a pepper

dill

The amounts vary according to the size of your produce. Try about 1/2 cup each vinegar and water to 1T sugar, 1t salt and 1/2 t pepper and liberal dill. Taste and adjust as needed.

Neither need to be kept cold and both improve on standing.

I like egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad. Tuna's easy, and I like my chicken salad with grapes. Tomato mozzarella is quick and easy. Or a sweet quinoa tabboule, follow the cooking directions but add a bunch of applesauce and some maple syrup to it while it boils.

Also, pasta salad with gluten-free pasta and LOTS of mayo & dressing, or else it dries out. Add cubed deli meat or tuna or peas or all of the above.

My new fav- raw corn salad

4 ears of corn, shuck and cut kernals off

3 large tomatoes diced

1 large cucumber, quartered and diced

diced avacado (optional)

Dressing-put all in blender and blend:

1/2 cup lime juice

1 tbs chili powder

1.5 tsp cumin

3 tbs olive oil

2 tsp salt

2 tsp honey

3 minced garlic cloves

1/3c fresh cilantro

1/2 c salsa

Toss all together. The longer you let the salad sit and marinate, the better it tastes! I could live on this stuff!!

Although it's probably too late today, here's an idea for another time.

Bag of lettuce

Canned chicken or precooked chicken of some sort

mandarin oranges

Sliced almonds (if you have time, cook them gently in a hot pan with a few spoonfuls of sugar and let cool once the sugar has melted)

Just about any vinaigrette dressing or a sweet one like poppyseed.

      Gluten-like cross reactions to other foods are from the proteins that make them up. Dextrose is the sugar component found in corn.

      I just found out a few days ago that some salt like table salt contains dextrose that’s derived from corn. I’ve been thinking about getting rid of using table salt and just using my own kosher or Himalayan salt, but tbh I’m reluctant to do it. I’ve cut out a lot of things and I don’t really want to cut out anything else that I’m not sure will effect me…in a super small amount that it might be added to salts to stabilize the iodine. I don’t want to be further alienated when I have to go to a restaurant with my friends. Also most of the items at my house that have salt in it canned food etc. are some of the few quick things I can eat- because I’m not the one paying for the food in my household and i can only ask for so much. I’m not in a place financially where I can get a lot of my specialized items- although my family tries their best to get items I Can actually stand. I get I can bring a my own salt with me at a restaurant and ask for no seasoning but it feels like a lot to me- cause I already check for cross contamination and ask if the food has like a high volume of corn in it like cornstarch etc. I’ve also heard most dextrose is not derived from the Zein (corn gluten) portion of it- so it might be safe- but idk if that’s true. I just wanna know if anyone actually responded to it negatively.

      For my first couple of years after discovering my celiac disease I also had to avoid cow's milk/casein and eggs, as well as other things, but could tolerate duck eggs and sheep and goat's milk products. I'm not sure if you've tried those, but it could be worth testing them out.

      Hello, @Kwinkle, How are you doing?   Have you tried adding a Magnesium supplement?   The B Complex vitamins need magnesium to work properly, especially thiamine vitamin B 1.   Magnesium deficiency symptoms and Thiamine deficiency symptoms both include gas and bloating.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms also include loss of appetite and fatigue.   My gas and bloating resolved rather quickly when I took Benfotiamine (a form of thiamine shown to promote intestinal healing) and Magnesium Glycinate in addition to my B 50 Complex (all twice a day plus the following...).   I found Magnesium L-Threonate or Magnesium Taurate are better when taken with a form of thiamine called TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl dusulfide) because all of these cross the blood brain barrier easily, which corrects the loss of appetite, fatigue and anxiety.    Like @Celiacandme said, keeping a food/mood/poo'd journal is a big help in finding problematic foods, and for making sure your diet is not carbohydrate heavy.  If you're eating a lot if processed gluten free facsimile foods, be aware they do not have vitamins and minerals added to them like their gluten containing counterparts.  For every 1000 kcal of carbohydrates, we need an extra 500 mg of thiamine to turn them into energy and not store them as fat.   Let us know how you're doing!

      Yes, if you had symptoms when eating gluten ruling out celiac disease won't necessarily mean you'll be able to eat gluten again, although it might mean that you may be able to be less strict with your gluten-free diet.
