CROCKPOT RECIPES:

Potatoes and Ham:

1 bag frozen hashbrowns/shredded potatoes (6 cups)

4 cups diced ham (about 1/2 lb.)

1-2 cans cream of mushroom soup (Progresso)

1 cup milk (or milk substitute)

Toss in crockpot, cover, cook on low until you get home from work :P

Meat, cheese, and potatoes:

Same ingredients, except substitute browned/drained ground beef. Sprinkle in 2 cups cheese 15-30 min. before you remove from pot.

Chicken, cheese, and potatos:

You get the idea ;)

For a vegetable: drain a can of green beans or other vegetable and add with other ingredients. You can also peel and slice potatoes as a substitute for the frozen shredded potatos.

BBQ chicken or pork

Toss raw meat in crockpot,

Pour BBQ sauce over meat, add 2 cups water water

Cook on low in crockpot while at work.

Well, now you know what a lazy cook I am! Hope some of you can enjoy a few of my simple little meals. :P -Julie

Sounds yummy, but I can never find the Progresso C/Mushroom soup!! Any ideas?? I don't have the "usual" stores talked about on here near me. No Whole Foods, etc. I can't find it at Walmart... help!!

same here. I looked everywhere for the progresso cream of mush soup, but can't find it. is there a good substitute?

Also, Julie, in another post you made a comment about making chocolate rice krispy treats with cocoa pepples and marshmallows. Okay, being the brain-dead cook I am, I need more instruction than that. do I melt the marshmallows first? how many do I use? How much cereal? it will be just for my 2 year old, so I didn't want to make a whole bunch. Thanks! :)

Wow! It tickles me to see ya'll might use some of my "very basic" recipes. I have a long weekend...so I'll try to post some more recipes for my other "cooking impaired" friends :P;)

I just don't have the time or energy to cook big meals right now, but I still like to feel like I'm eating a "big meal"...so, I'm slowly learning to be creative. :)

Thanks Kim, for posting the Rice Krispy recipe for Debbie :)

Abby, my gluten-free friend, I don't cook either! :D ...for awhile after going gluten-free, I also wasn't eating (hence the name, "Imsohungry"). But people on this site were so helpful, I have finally found a few things that work for a busy, gluten-free, hungry, non-cook. :P

Well, ya'll enjoy. And if I get a chance this weekend, I'll post a few more.

Blessings to you. -Julie B)

I forgot one thing...

I finally found Progresso at my Wal-mart. It was not at one Wal-mart near my house, but it was at the other.

Here's a thought: If Wal-mart carries it (but not near you), ask if the manager would be willing to order it for you. Obviously, the chain has the capability to carry it because my Wal-mart does...so if you find a helpful manager at Wal-mart, they may be willing to special order it. :huh::)

However, sometimes "Superstores" (i.e. Wal-mart) are not very helpful.

My other thought is this: Do you all have a Publix or Kroger near you?

My local Publix has been very helpful when trying to place special-orders, and Kroger has also offered to do the same.

I usually go to the Customer Service Desk and ask for a manager (or the person in charge of placing special orders). Make sure you get the name of who you speak with and the date you make the request...I usually call once a week to check on the item and let them know I'm seriously interested. :)

Hope this helps! -Julie B)

Julie, thanks so much! :) I have a Frys (kroger) across the street from me. I will look there for the soup.

Also, thanks gfinnebraska for the rice krispy recipe. I made them and they turned out great! My daughter even ate a piece of one! :D

Julie, I look forward to the other recipes! I wrote all the ones down that you posted so far and plan on making them for my family this week. :)

Hey Debbie (and everyone else reading this thread), B)

Do you have a crockpot or slowcooker??? It sounds like you do.

If so, I REALLY recommend the book:

"Fix-It and Forget It" slowcooker/crockpot cookbook by authors Ranck and Good

Many of the Recipes are naturally gluten-free, and many of the ones that are not can easily be modified. :)

In addition, a lot of the recipes only have a few ingredients and are EASY! ;)

The cookbook was fairly cheap too...I think I paid $12 for it at Wal-mart.

Blessings and good eating! :P -Julie

      Conflicting results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's possible he's in the early stages of celiac disease, and it has been caught before villi damage. The blood test results so far do indicate possible celiac disease, as well as his strong family history of celiac disease. If his symptoms get better on a gluten-free diet this would be another strong indication. Personally I think it's definitely better to proceed on the safe side and go gluten-free, rather than to risk severe villi damage and all that comes with it.

      Permanent Floating & Undigested Stools for a Year

      By Dora77 · Posted

      For some context: I have type 1 diabetes (T1D) (since 11 years) and celiac disease(since 4 years) For about a year now, I’ve been experiencing permanent floating and undigested stools. I’ve had a pancreas elastase test done. The first result was extremely low at 44, but a second test came back at 236. My doctor said that since one result is normal, it rules out pancreatic insufficiency because, according to them, elastase levels would always stay low if that were the issue. However, could the 236 have been a false result? My doctor also thinks I don’t have pancreatic insufficiency because I’m able to gain weight. I also get hgh injections as my bone age is younger than my real age, this also contributes to weight gain, so I dont know if weight gain can rule out malabsorption. But maybe if I had real malabsorption I wouldnt gain any weight even with hgh? For celiac, I’m on a gluten-free diet, but there might b small cross-contamination from things like pepper labeled as “may contain gluten.” or sausages which dont have gluten ingredient but say may contain. My doctor said that small amounts like this wouldn’t harm me and even mentioned that an occasional small exposure to gluten may not do much damage (which seems questionable since I thought even tiny amounts could be harmful). She also said that when Im older (Im m17) I could try eating small amounts of gluten and do antibody blood tests to see if I can tolerate small amounts or not. For reference, I’m asymptomatic when it comes to celiac, so I have no idea if I’ve been “glutened” or not. My first concerning celiac blood test was semi high IgA, then 3 months later we did a check up and my IgA was high so it was confirmed celiac. Since than I’ve had celiac antibody tests done yearly to see how my diet is going, and they’ve been negative, but I’ve heard those aren’t always reliable. I’ve never had a follow-up endoscopy to confirm healing. I also always kept eating „may contain gluten“ food. (I live in Germany so I dont know if „may contain gluten“ is as risky as in the usa but I suppose both are as risky) These stool issues started around the same time I was doing excessive heavy lifting at the gym. Could stress or lifting have triggered this, or is that less likely since the symptoms persist even after I stopped lifting? Occasionally, I’ll feel very mild stomach discomfort, but it’s rare and not severe. My doctor (also a dietist) said floating, undigested stools could still be “normal,” but that doesn’t seem realistic to me. Could this be impacting my vitamin or protein absorption? I also did a fructose intolerance breath test and had a high baseline of 20 ppm, but it never increased—only decreased over time. I fasted for 12 hours and didn’t eat fructose beforehand, but my stomach didn’t feel completely empty during the test. Could this mean the test was inaccurate? For lactose intolerance, I did the breath test but only fasted 10 hours and had eaten lactose prior because I wasn’t aware of the proper diet restrictions. My results were: 14, 12, 15, 25, 35, 40, 40 ppm—which would be considered positive. But given that I didn’t fast long enough or follow the right diet, could this result be unreliable? Has anyone else dealt with similar symptoms? What ended up being the cause for you? And sorry for the long text!

      Status Update...

      By TerryinCO · Posted

      The Docs' and NP haven't committed to Celiac determination yet but say go gluten-free diet because...  And I have with improved physical results - feeling better; overall functions better, and more energy.  Still 10 pounds down in weight but I still have BMI of ~23.  It's been just over a month now gluten-free diet.  I'm fortunate I get along with diary/milk well and most other foods. I wanted ask about this site's sponsor, gliadin X.  If this is legit, seems like a good product to keep on hand. Though it says it's only a safety for incidental gluten contact - not a substitue for gluten-free diet. What's your input on this? This may be sensitive subject since they're a sponsor. I've used resources here and other sites for information, gluten-free food/product lists. So thank you for all that support. That's it for now - Stay warm...  -2F this morning in Colorado!

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      By cristiana · Posted

      I did suffer with gastric symptoms before diagnosis, but got all sorts of weird and wacky symptoms after going gluten free.   Things got much better once my antibodies fell to normal levels, but it took years (please don't panic, many people's go to normal levels relatively quickly when following a gluten-free diet). Causes of the symptoms you mention that I also experienced were iron supplements, a temporary dairy intolerance (this is common in coeliacs and should pass when your gut heals properly), and eating oats, as mentioned above.  Other symptoms I got were musculoskeletal pain after diagnosis, but again, once my coeliac blood tests were normal, I had no more pain. I did notice patterns emerging in foods that I reacted to and learned to steer clear of them, then gradually reintroduced them when my gut healed, such as soya, pure oats and dairy products.    You might like to keep a food diary.

      Conflicting results

      By Jy11 · Posted

      Well the conflicting results continue as the biopsy has come back negative. 😵‍💫 Waiting to discuss further but I really don’t know what to think now? Eight biopsy’s were taken from duodenum which surely should be sufficient if it was coeliac?
