Chicken rice casserole. A year ago this was a quick easy meal that involved throwing rice, soup and chicken in a pan and throwing it in the oven. Since I refuse to spend $4 for a can of soup it now involves making my own mushroom soup which I'm glad I learned to do, it's far better than anything I ever had from a can.

I thought it might be fun if we had a thread where we shared what we're cooking up for dinner:) I am not an experienced cook so coming up with gluten free menus for me and my boyfriend feels like a ch

I'm having Tinkyada brown rice spaghetti-style pasta with doctored-up ready-made spaghetti sauce that I've had stashed in my freezer in single serving sizes. Yum! This time I'm trying the quick cook

Isn't homemade mushroom soup awesome? It is a revelation. I cannot recall when I last bought a can of soup - it simply is not necessary.

WB Love! We're just back from a trip too. My DP talked me into buying a 24' very used mobile home. I had 100 reasons why we shouldn't buy it, he had 101 why we should. Number 101 was "We need an adventure!!!!

It was an adventure. We went camping with a club the people we bought the RV from belong to and I caught a lot of flack about not eating their food or showing up for their planned food functions.

DP made smoked ribs with mu homemade Adobe sauce tonight. We ate after I woke up from my little three hour nap, I slept like a zombie in my big little house (It seemed enourmous after the RV, and my bed felt so good!) We had grilled sweet potatos and Redneck Caviar with dinner and those kicking ribs, along with Tostito's scoops.

Over dinner, I said to DP "People say stupid things, don't they" Reply: "All the time" I'm gonna start letting the stuff things people say roll of my back, that's what I learned from camping. That, and those side awnings are a major PIA to get down. We're not going to join the camping group, I had forewarned the organizer that I wouldn't partake in group eating events and why. I felt no need to repeat why during the course of the weekend. She didn't say anything then, but when I told her last night why we we're joining, she said, "Sorry, we're a very food oriented group".

I told her I already belong to a food focused group. Thank God for you folks, I've learned so much from you. :DB);) ((( )))

Sorry, I meant to say NOT joining, still can't do the edit. I think it's a browser issue.

A Saturday afternoon trip to the store got me some goodies like ground turkey for $.99 a pound and a ginormous tub of ricotta relatively cheap. I kind of threw a bunch of crap together and called it a pasta casserole. I kept just enough out to have for dinner and froze three small ones for later. It turned out better than I thought it would so at least I won't be worried about pulling out the leftovers on a lazy day.

Breakfast for dinner (I think my girls would eat pancakes for every meal if I let them), anyway tonight we are making banana split pancakes and turkey bacon.

I think I'll come to your house for dinner. Sounds like breakfast and dessert all wrapped up in one.

Hamburgers, shredded lettuce, tomato, oven baked sweet potato fries with olive oil. I can't wait to eat. I'm coming off a glutening/corning/soying..one of those, they all feel the same to me and I have had nothing but brown rice and fruit for 2 days. I am finally getting my appetite back.

I love this thread! Thanks, everyone! Tonight we had rice vermicelli, tofu cutlets and chunks of watermelon. (Oh--and a pot of decaf green tea--love that with Chinese food.) The rice noodles were stirred with a little sauce I make with gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, Korean chili powder and onion powder. The tofu cutlets are cooked in a skillet in a sauce of gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, Korean chili powder, garlic powder, ginger powder and brown sugar. Can post the actual recipe if anyone's interested. These are delicious! The whole meal was a big hit with gluten-free and non-gluten-free family members.

Beans made in crockpot--worked most of the day---with small pieces of ham thrown in. (I put molasses, garlic powder, onion powder, mustard powder, a little tomato paste, a little Korean chili powder, black pepper in the beans. Right before serving I'll salt it.) This will be over rice. I'm checking the garden to see if we have lettuce for tonight and we'll have that with some pieces of cukes and celery.

My son made non-gluten-free cookies for which I'm thankful----one diet helps the other! :)

Yesterday I made Morrocan chicken and rice. I didn't feel like cooking tonight. I had a bowl of popcorn while watching a movie with hubby. Hubby ate some leftover morrocan chicken.

I'd love the Moroccan chicken recipe! Sounds delicious!

Oh...and meant to say that my husband brought home gluten-free beer this morning. I've tried Green's ale and really liked it. He brought home a mixed 6-pack of 3 different kinds. We'll report the taste-test back! It's going to taste awfully good with the beans!

I wish I could have a marguerita, but I got glutened this week (I KNOW!! duh!! how can an OLD VETERAN make such a rookie mistake? <_< wellll, I trusted a company rep who said they have "no complaints from anyone on their gluten free assurances" ....)

Wow, we've been doing this thread since 2010? How time flies when you're eating well :D I still enjoy reading what you all are making. I'm not feeling so well, so I'm making my safe chicken and rice soup.

      Is this celiac?

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      ttg iga high (646 mg/dl) other results are normal

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!
