I use cream of celery/mushroom/chicken for a lot of my cooking. Not so much anymore as Campbells is not gluten free - from what I have read :(

Progresso has a creamy mushroom soup that is gluten free. I used it last week to make tuna noodle casserole (with gluten free corn pasta). Instead of adding a can of soup and a can of milk I just put in the can of Progresso Soup with no additional liquid (it is not as thick as Campbell's condensed) and followed the rest of the recipe as I always have. It tasted very good.

I just started using these. My daughter likes them better than Tinkyada. I usually buy Sams Mills brand online. The lasagne corte are similar in shape to egg noodles. Once (and only once) my daughter found them at Big Lots for 99cents for a one pound bag. I keep looking hoping they get them again at this price, but so far no luck :(

You can also make your own cream soup base and flavor it any way you like--

Gluten Free Cream Soup Base

modified from Bette Hagman's recipe

1 c. dry milk powder

1 c. white rice flour

2 Tbs. dehydrated minced onions

1/2 tsp. pepper

1/2 tsp. salt

Mix together. Store on the counter.

To make cream soup from the base, mix together:

1/4 c. base

1/4 c. cold water

Add:

1 c. hot chicken broth. Cook and stir over medium heat until thick and bubbling.

Campbell's makes me so mad, too!!! I miss the condensed cream soups (especially Cream of Mushroom) as they are used in so many recipes. I've tried Progresso Creamy Mushroom and while I like to eat it a lot, it hasn't worked as well in recipes as I'd like.

I emailed them last week inquiring about the Bean with Bacon as I didn't find any offending ingredients on the label. I have a recipe for Kielbasa Bean Soup using the Bean with Bacon as the base. I think it's a BH&G recipe dating from the 70's and is so yummy and also easy - tastes like homemade.

Here is their response. My comments specifically referred to the cream soups. I don't know why they have to use wheat in everything.

..... we received your message and appreciate your taking the time to contact Campbell Soup Company.

We are happy to share our Gluten Free list with you. Please visit Open Original Shared Link where you can download the most current gluten free list.

Campbell's primary concern is the safety of our consumers. Each of our soup recipes is hand crafted, which explains why some soups contain food starches and others do not. Many of our soups share manufacturing processes and equipment with gluten containing ingredients and products. For this reason, Campbell's has decided not to label gluten-free on soups where we could not ensure compliance with our strict gluten-free standards.

We have forwarded your comments on to the appropriate department. We appreciate feedback like yours because it helps us become aware of consumer preferences and concerns.

Thank you for visiting the Campbell Soup Company website. Campbell Soup Company Web Team

What could you use if you are avoiding dairy?

Rice/almond/soy milks.

I was dairy free for 5 years, for cream sauces I used Pacific rice milk.

How about almond milk and soy butter? Or whatever butter substitute you prefer.

Thanks. I was not sure if almond milk would work or not. I've been making my own and using it for smoothies, cereal and in baking. I recently used it in my pancake recipe and it was delish.

There is this brand of condensed soups I have found at HEB's called Tasty classics. It is a product from Canada. I think they have it as one of their generic soups. I find them on the bottom shelf. It is a light gray can. They are gluten-free. They aren't labeled gluten-free, but there is no gluten on the label. We use this brand and it always turns out wonderful!

It has MSG in it though :(

Ugh, Campbells. I took a big hit from that the first time my mom attempted to cook a gluten-free meal for me (she was careful with the big ingredients- no added flour, made sure rice was okay, etc) but never thought to check the soup label before she added it to the recipe as she wasn't expecting wheat flour in the tomato soup. Her mind has been totally blown by the amount of crap that is added to our food, now that she's learned to read all labels.

THANK YOU for the creamed soup base recipes! I just spent an hour looking thru an awesome crockpot cooking list and every other recipe used a Campbells soup! Now, I can consider trying the recipes!!

I'm dairy and soy free as well as gluten free and make a home made tuna noodle casserole that is super yummy.

I make a roux of gluten-free flour (Bob's Red Mill) and light olive oil.

Then add hemp milk or coconut milk (So Delicious makes a coconut milk that is not coconut-y in flavor)

I use Tinkyada pasta but the trick is to undercook it. This way it's not mushy in the casserole.

I add tuna, mushrooms, peas and pimentos and season to taste.

Plop it all into a baking dish and top with gluten-free bread crumbs (I save the ends from my home baked loaves and freeze them for making bread crumbs)

I have also used potato chips (is that so 1972 or what?)

It comes out awesome.

      Testing

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Once you have removed the inflammatories, it is time to focus on the deficiencies.  A lot of them not specific to Celiac, but deficiency in them elicits symptoms associated with Celiac. According to research, celiac disease tends to be more prevalent in urban areas compared to rural areas.  Same is true with airborne viruses.  Because urban residents get less sunlight.  To top it off we use lotion and gear to block the little light there is.  This compremises the vitamin D blood level.  A virus attack further lowers vitamin D and the immune system loses control over the Celiac genes and they go into acute symptoms. 40% to 75% depending depending on country are vitamin D deficient. 50% do not eat the Adequit Intake for potassium (4700 mg a day) 90% do n ot eat the Adequit Intake for Choline. Iodine intake since 1970 had dropped 50%.  The western diet is typically excessive in omega 6 fatty acid compared to omega 3.  Above 14:1 by some estimates.  So they sell us expensive, processed oils to compensate.  Anyway after 10 years gluten free myself,  here is what has helped me in just the past few years; once I realized I was at a healing plateau and just GFD would not cut it, and reallized my deficiencies.  Most recently, I started a statin which I only took for two weeks before it started to cripple me.   Got a prescription for Nicotinic Acid to 2000 and am more flexible now Plus HDL went 29 to 44, eGFR from 55 to 79. I also learned if the pharmacist gets a prescription for Niacin that it is dealer's choice whether you get Nicotinic Acid or Niacinimide.  And it comes out of a regular vitamin manufacturer.   "likely deficiencies and what I take to boost my intake (I get anorexic at the drop of a hat so I take them to keep me stable):  the ones that helped me the most noticibly Was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Nicotinic Acid - increase capillary blood flow, lower cholesterol. I recently started 2000 mg a day instead of a statin which I cannot tolerate. I the first month my HDL went from 29 to 44. eGFR (kidney function) jumped from 55 ti 75. It also has make my whole body less stiff. The ichy, flushing with the first few doses goes away. The non flush forms of vitamin B3 do not work. It is the relaxing of the capillaries and tendons. 500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation Whole Milk Vanilla yogurt to which I add 100 grams of raspberrys, black berries and blueberries has lots of probiotics and makes my tummy and body happy. Red Bull has sugar (not high fructose corn syrup) and the vitamins (B2,3,5,6 need to metabolize to ATP energy and Taurine as an antioxident). It is a good source of energy for me because my genetic hyperlipidemia does not process complex carbs well.

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By trents · Posted

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

      By Ryangf · Posted

      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.

      I’m so confused…

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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!
