Does anyone know what canned enchilada sauces are gluten free. Yeah, I know I could make my own gluten free enchilada sauce but when in a hurry (which if often) it would be so much simpler to be able to grab a can of enchilada sauce. I was hoping to make a chili relleno casserole tomorrow. I need help. Thanks

I just bought a can of La Victoria Enchilada Sauce Green Chili Mild. I haven't called to confirm yet, but the ingredients are as follows...

water, green chilies, green tomatoes, vinegar, modified food starch, salt, soybean oil, garlic, sugar, spices, dry onion, msg, onion powder, hydrolized soy protein, corn starch, textured soya protein, natural nad artificial flavors, colors, yeas extract, caclium silicate, garlic posder, citric acid. CONAINS:SOY

Normally if it contains wheat, it will say that under the allergy warning. But I will call tomorrow. Here's the number. 1 800 725 7212

I have not found a red sauce in a can that didnt' contain gluten. I just make my own by opening a can of tomato sauce, adding garlic powder, chili powder, cumin and oregano. That is as simple as opening a can of red sauce. Hope that helps.

Not sure where you live so some of these may not be available; According to my IPad app Is this gluten-free?":

Dominicks Select ench sauce mild

Frontera: chipolte garlic & classic red chie ench sauce

Genuardis Select Ench sauce mild

Hyvee mild ench sauce

La Victoria Green & Red ench sauces

Las Palmas red ench sauce

Randalls, Ton thumb, Vons & Safeway select Ench sauce mild

Old El paso had Wheat listed before but I think they have taken that out. I would check first.

WOW!! I just went to the la victoria website and the red sauce says GLUTEN FREE!!! I'm so excited I've NEVER seen this before. The green doesn't say it but it could be new. I'll still call tomorrow. Here's the link.

WOW! That is a good link. There are several things on there that hubby can have that I didn't think about. Going to print the list for the next time I go to the store.

I am not sure if we have La Victoria in any of our stores or not. Seems like I have seen it but it could have been Las Palmos I saw. I will have to look more closely next time I am at the store.

Thanks

The only brands I recognize from this list is Las Palmas and maybe La Victoria (not sure on that one, could be my imagination). I know we have Old El Paso. I will check out the website, send them an e-mail, or call, or all of the above. I know the store brand I used to buy, and still have a can of in my pantry, is not gluten free.

I bought a can of Old ElPaso. The ingredients lists is:

Water, Tomato Puree (water, tomato paste) Modified Corn Starch, salt, sugar, distilled vinegar, chili pepper, soybean oil, citric acid, hydrolyzed soy and corn protein, onion powder, red pepper, color added, natural flavor.

Sounds safe right???

That's the one my kids like, so I'm going to use it. When I went to the grocery, all sorts of La Victoria stuff said gluten-free on it. I personally prefer if the ingredients are the things my Mexican grandmother (if I were lucky enough to have one) would have pit in it.

Sweet Creek comes in a jar. Not only is it gluten-free but organic. And it's yummy!

In search for a gluten-free enchilada sauce I visited Old El Paso's website, but when I clicked on the link for Nutrition Information it brought me to another page that did not contain what I was looking for. I did, however, find their enchilada sauce listed on Amazon and they list gluten as an ingredient. See the link: http://www.(Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned)/El-Paso-Enchilada-Sauce-10-Ounce/dp/B000H27K04

I hope this helps someone.

      Daughter's high test results.

      By trents · Posted

      Were any other celiac antibody tests run besides the DGP-IGA? Was a total IGA test run to check for IGA deficiency? There are multiple IGA tests that can be run as well as several IGG tests when checking for celiac disease. The DGP-IGA test is helpful when diagnosing children whose immune systems are immature.

      Daughter's high test results.

      I think we all wish that managing celiac disease was a simple as just avoiding gluten. And I think we all enter into the journey with that naive misconception. And for some, it is that simple. But for many, it is not. The same processes that resulted in the immune system misidentifying gluten as a threat opens the door for misidentifying other food proteins as threats. At it's core, all this simply is the result of an immune system that has become dysfunctional in some ways and is hypervigilant.  I assume you already know that genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease since 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease while only about 1% develop...

      It doesn't look like either avenin or casein would contribute to her IgA levels being high. From my understanding, that is only an indication of gliadin, which is only in gluten.  I should have noted that she does not have any symptoms of being constantly exposed to gluten as the test result shows. No intestinal discomfort, no brain fog, no lack of energy. She is still growing and gaining weight, which was the first indicator that she was not absorbing nutrients properly and led to her celiac diagnosis.

      That is very disheartening... She's due for the celiac genetic test, and the gliadin test again in 3 months.  Oats are easier to avoid, the milk is going to be an issue.  Thank you! We'll see how this goes.

      Anyone Here Sensitive To Fillers Such As Cellulose?

      By ShariW · Posted

      No problems (that I know of) to cellulose, but I have found that I have a "glutened" response to products containing inulin. Another thing to check for on labels!
