Hi Farmwife67,

I tried Glutino frozen pizza and it was pretty decent. Amy's on the other hand I really didn't like.-Jenny

I've tried Amy's and Glutino. I thought the Amy's was pretty decent, and I think it was cheaper than the Glutino.

I like Amy's as well with rice crust. I put my own turkey pepperoni and black olives on it. The only thing is the cheese is soy cheese...so if you're not allergic to soy...it might work for you. Hated Glutino's.

Meijer sells Amy's for $6+ and Whole Foods sells Amy's for $10, so you know where I buy mine :)

The Amy's pizza I bought had dairy cheese, not soy. Of course, that only works if you're also not allergic to dairy...

I wonder if Amy's makes a gluten-free pizza without any cheese at all. I think their regular pizza crust is available without cheese.

Kinnikinnick makes a GREAT frozen pizza crust that you can add your own toppings to - quick and very tasty (not dry like other gluten-free crusts can be)

I think the Kinnickinnick crusts are great. I always have a package on hand. They come 4 to a box for about $9. Hormel pepperoni is gluten-free and I always keep it and cheese on hand for a quick meal.

Thank you all so much, I would like to keep the crusts as well as the premade pizza on hand. I have 17 year old twins and I am hoping they will like them as well, so I don't have to fix different meals. Trying to find stuff we can all eat. I'm finding I am paranoid about everything, I lay down foil or a plate on the cupboard before I fix anything, I'm so afraid their crumbs are going to get on my food.

I like Amy's with sausage (al Fresco makes a great gluten-free garlic chicken sausage)onions and mushroom. I agree- Whole Foods charges more. I get it for $6.99 at my local grocery store.

If you can find them, the absolute BEST pizza crust I have ever had is Open Original Shared Link. Their recipe is based on a portugese cheese bread recipe and it is SO tasty. Chebe is a dedicated gluten-free facility.

We like Isabelle's Best gluten free pizza - we get it at Sam's Club - just under $14 for two good-sized pizzas (maybe 12 inch?). Very thin crust. I always add more pepperoni.

There's a brand called Against the Grain that also makes tapioca products, and they have an excellent pizza crust very like Chebe they sell frozen. They may only be on the East coast, not sure...

Udi's makes a frozen pizza crust that's soy-free, dairy-free and nut-free (who puts nuts in their crusts???). I haven't tried it yet, but I have one sitting in my freezer. I brought it home thinking I'd put some soy cheese on it, then found out I can't have soy. So it's still sitting in my freezer! Oh, well.... someday.... :rolleyes:

I tried it and it is okay - better than the Glutino's pre-made frozen and Z-Pizza (IMO). (Amy's is so darn expensive I've never bothered to try.) Udi's crust is a little sweet but made a serviceable pizza. My partner really enjoyed it - even more than I (he does not have celiac disease) and encouraged me to buy more crusts.

We don't like Amy's pizza... Foods by George has a personal size pizza with sauce & cheese , not bad.

Joans gluten-free great bakes has silician pizza that everyone loves. It is like a pan pizza , crust not thick nor then... they also sell just crusts that are good as well.

Isabella pizza is very good, thin crust.Made with Domata Living Flour. Domata also sells bags of pizza crust mix, you just add water

I'm not sure where you live but Uno's Chicago Grill has a very thin crust pizza made by french meadow..

Still Riding Pizza sells crusts on there site. Many pizza joints use that crust...

We take the joans silician pizza to school & they bake it for lunch for our kid.....

Sounds like a lot of you have turned finding great pizza into a science! LOL!

It is, after all, one of the four food groups. :D

I haven't tried many, but Kinnikinick is a huge winner in my house. Like others mentioned, the personal pizza crusts in a 4 pack are amazing!! Just top with Kraft Italian Five Cheese and Hormel pepperoni and 15 minutes later, a little bit of heaven!! The crust has an amazing flavor and now when I bring it to family's houses, they all want a bite because the crust is so yummy!

I like the Kinnicuck (spelling?). You could try your crust with olive oil & garlic. Like a bread stick. I worked at a pizza place that made a scrambled egg pizza - marinara & eggs or some combo of eggs, peppers, etc. What about butter/margarine & cinnamon sugar? Cook the crust & then make a fruit pizza - fruits "artfully" arranged with a glaze of jelly (melt jelly in microwave). Maybe peanut butter or almond butter & chocolate. You paid $6 for those crusts- I'm determined you will use them. :)

My gosh those all sound so good. I will definately try the fruit one. The cinnamon and sugar sounds good too. I can see me going through many more crusts a week very soon. Pizza as dinner and as dessert, what could be better for a junk food day.

Pretty creative, karen... hadn't thought of any of those possibilities. The scrambled egg thing sounds a little weird (sorry), but the fruit tart is a great idea.

Peanut butter and chocolate? LOL! You are creative!

Yeah, it was about $6, but since we used to pay over $20 for our weekly pizza, I figured it'd be worth it.

Weekly pizza.... those were the days....(cali is off in la la land now dreaming of pizza and drooling ever so slightly...)

If you live near a Sprouts, they carry plain gluten-free pizza in their deli department. It is store brand. The crust is good and they have a small amount of sauce and cheese on it. I add turkey pepperoni, mushrooms and green olives. I also bake it alot longer than it indicates... I like well cooked pizza. It is even great for breakfast, cold the next day. I am dairy intolerant and it does not mess with me at all.

Sorry to all the waist lines I may have altered. We used to make fruit pizza with sugar cookie dough & I liked it but thought it was too sweet. Some people sweeten cream cheese & put it on as the first layer but we were trying to go DF here.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By Brook G · Posted

      People who are Celiac don't have a gluten response to Quinoa, but some people who are gluten intolerant do.  I react to quinoa just like I do to gluten.  Freddies/Kroger came out with their own gluten-free Bread and I didn't think to read the ingredients.  I couldn't figure out where I would have gotten gluten in my diet until I read the ingredients in their bread...

      Testing positive for antibodies, are there visible changes to the colon that could be seen without a biopsy?

      By trents · Posted

      Thanks for the additional information. I was thinking of asking you if your daughter was taking methylated vitamins since she has the MTHFR gene but you beat me to it. To answer the question you posed in your original post, as I explained, celiac disease does not damage the colon but the lining of the small bowel. If the damage is pronounced enough and the doc doing it is experienced, yes, the damage done to the lining of the small bowel can be spotted with the naked eye.

      I could not locate the correct Gary Brecka video where he explains the methylation process and specifically states things about how people with the MTRR homozygous gene mutation are known to suffer from heartburn due to a weakened valve/sphincter where the esophagus and the stomach connect.  My brother had the youtube video sent to him from 10x health which is probably why I cannot locate it.     I will have read up on mast cell activation.  I do not know anything about it.  Tums is my preferred gerd treatment.  I always figured a little extra calcium could not hurt me.

      Trents: Due to a genetic mutation, my daughter has inherited from both parents she cannot process the Folic Acid provided in the fortified American grains.   An MD told her to avoid eating fortified grains.   My daughter makes the assumption that unless she makes the food item, that the baker used a fortified grain so she has been limiting her gluten intake since 2020.   Her Psychiatrist was who tested her for MTHFR gene issue because she suffers from depression and severe anxiety. The Psychatrist also instructed my daughter to supplement with a methylated version of folate once she knew my daughter was homozygous, because the methylated version bypasses the mutated gene step so her body can absorb it.  Low folate absorption impacts serotonin and dopamine production.  My husband and I also both have two other homozygous gene mutations that interfere with vitamin absorption: MTRR and VDR taq.  The first interferes with B-12 absorption which requires us to take a methylated B-12 vitamin and the second with Vitamin D absorption so we have to take higher doses to stay within normal levels.   My brother, who has the exact same gene mutations, went through 10x health genetic testing for vitamin supplements (paid by his employer) and received a huge report saying the same things about which types of supplements had to be taken.  Gary Brecka does videos on how these gene mutations impact the vitamin absorption pathways.       If my brother had not gotten his testing through work, he would never would have started his supplement journey.  His testing is what triggered my getting functional health testing that tested similar biomarkers to his.  Again the celiac testing was an add-on test that I did off the cuff.

      Colonoscopy with large are of inflammation

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @growlinhard1! If eliminating gluten from your diet makes significant improvement in your symptoms then there are two possibilities. Either you have celiac disease (aka, gluten intolerance) or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, aka, gluten sensitivity). The difference is that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that creates inflammation and, over time, damages the lining of the small bowel which inhibits nutrient absorption whereas NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. They share many of the same symptoms. At the end of the day, the antidote for both is to abstain from foods that contain wheat, barley or rye, the three gluten-containing grains. Some countries supply stipends and healthcare benefits for those with an official celiac diagnosis. If you live in the USA that does not apply. The main reasons for seeking an official celiac diagnosis are psychological and social. Many people have a hard time not falling off the gluten free bandwagon without an official diagnosis. They find it easy to rationalize it all away as being temporary or due to something else. When you have an official diagnosis, you tend to take gluten-free eating more seriously. Socially, family and friends are more likely to respect and attempt to comply with your need to eat gluten free if you have an official diagnosis of celiac disease. Your physician is more likely to take you seriously as well if you have an official diagnosis because there are typically other health problems that are spinoffs which develop from celiac disease in time. One autoimmune disease invites others. There are no tests for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. We do have specific tests for celiac disease. By the way, some experts believe that NCGS can transition into celiac disease. If your endoscopy/biopsy is only a month away, I would encourage you to stick it out and go back on gluten to get an official diagnosis. You still have time to get a valid test result if you start back on gluten now, 10g of gluten daily which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread.
