Since it's summer here, I made rice paper "summer" rolls: slaw of cabbage and carrots with commercial feta/garlic dressing; sushi rice, spears of cucumber, avocado, goat feta cheese,

julienne of carrots, green onions, snow pea sprouts for hubs and watercress for me, along with shrimp. Yum. Super healthy! I used the feta dressing for dipping sauce, hubs made a wasabi/tamari???!!! combination :lol:

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

This weekend I made Gumbo for the first time, from Emeril's cook book. I used Bisquick gluten-free Mix and it made a roux just fine, although I got a bit impatient stirring and stirring....but well w

Last night I had veggie-beef soup made from that leftover beef roast and juices that I had stuck in the freezer a couple of weeks ago. I actually made the soup the day before and as with many soups, this was even better the second day.

Since I never use a recipe for it, it doesn't turn out the same way twice. I added chopped onion and celery, a can of V-8, a box of Progresso beef broth, a can of petite diced tomatoes, some shredded cabbage and a bag of frozen mixed veggies, basil and parsley (that's the things I remember). Glad I managed to stash some single serving containers in the freezer for future quick meals when I positively don't feel like cooking.

Oh, and I also had a gluten-free Betty Crocker cupcake about 9 p.m....

Tonight is an easy gluten-free dinner. Steak and lettuceless salad. No thinking needed. Just eating.

Last night for dinner I made fluffy pancakes. Our local health food store had a Gluten Fest this last weekend. I love to be able to sample gluten-free foods before buying. One company was making pancakes. Those fluffy light ones that I have not been able to find in years. Their mix, Light-As-Air Pancakes is very good. My DH was in heaven to have a great pancake dinner. I believe it was by Fahlstrom Farms.

Ya'll are making me jealous! Yumm!

Tonight we had grilled pork steaks that I marinated in orange juice & s&p with brown rice, stamed swiss chard and roasted mushrooms and a little bit of fresh pineapple. And one small piece of dark chocolate for dessert. Not bad. B)

I just enjoyed a delicious fish pie. Now I'm waiting for a mysterious dessert....I hope its chocolate. The best part is that I didn't have to make any of it. Good thing my boyfriend is a suberb cook. And baker. And its all gluten-free. :D Its our Valentines dinner.

Taco Rice--I'm a taco lover and this is better than tacos any day. There are lots of recipes on the internet. I just make it the same way I do for tacos. I do add whole beans to the meat.

Tonight I made a stir-fry with chicken breast, shrimp, onions, snow peas, mushrooms, yellow squash and probably a couple of other things I've forgotten. And Jasmine rice. Now I'm having a Reese's peanut butter cup. :D

Tonight, I had gluten free pasta with frozen vegetable mix of broccoli, green beans, carrots, kidney beans, white beans, black beans, added some garlic and onion and topped with parmesan. mmmmm my go to meal when I don't feel like cooking anything big.

I was in CA last week and for my son's birthday I made him a chocolate cake (regular not gluten free) and I also made a gluten free version of the same old family recipe using Bob's Red Mill all purpose baking flour and a tsp of xanthum gum per cup of flour. They all liked my gluten free version better and some of the guests couldn't tell the difference!! My youngest son that lives with me said that going forward I can make the gluten free one all the time!!! I'm making it for a party I'm going to next Sunday and only the hostess knows it's gluten free (wink). I'm also making a pasta salad that I made in CA as well. Tinkyada spiral noodles, grape tomatoes, mozzarella pearls, chopped onion, chopped garlic, olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and some chopped fresh parsley and basil. Let this combo sit for a while and the flavor is amazing. (I almost didn't get any at the party last week and I was the only gluten free one there lol)

Another thing I did today - I had purchased some Glutino sesame bagels and wasn't crazy about the taste or texture as a bagel so I cut them up in little chips and drizzled with olive oil, onion powder, garlic powder, and a little salt and baked them until they were dried out and crunchy. OMG they taste like the rye chips in Gardetto's... LOL I have a whole bag of the chips from 3 bagels.

Happy Cooking

Make your items you make for tacos, use no shell or tortillas, put hot cooked rice in a bowl, top with cheese and then layer on taco meat and any topping you desire.

Toasted cheese sandwiches. Mine had tomato. Ceaser salad kit from Costco. Croutons went in the trash and were replaced with gluten-free ones. Added black olives. Also apple crisp.

I pulled a serving of my veggie-beef soup out of the freezer for dinner. And because it's a pretty light meal, I'm going to indulge in a Udi's Double Chocolate Muffin later this evening (nuked briefly to melt those chocolate chips). They are to die for...albeit a bit on the expensive side but I figure I'm worth it. :D

I'm intrigued with the fish pie...would love details...

Tonight we had fish filets, marinated in fresh herbs, lemon juice and olive oil and minced green onion/serranno pepper, wrapped in parchment paper and grilled, along with grilled new potatoes and summer squash. I just add chopped onion or chopped green onion to the taters and drizzle olive oil over them, add sea salt and freshly ground pepper, wrap them in foil and dh takes it from there on the grill.

I live with a grill master. If I marinate something or cover it in aluminum foil, he'll grill it, despite the weather. Yay!

Sylvia, thanks for reminding me. Because the grill master isn't gluten-free, sometimes he's a pain, but worth keeping.

I didn't eat much tonight. I accidently had some soy today. That twists me up.

I made this tonight and must tell you it is sooooo good!!! It just so happened that I had leftover rice in the fridge so I didn't even have to cook it. I used shredded cheddar cheese and a medium-hot salsa on top. YUMMY! And another emergency meal (plus some to stash in the the freezer)

I also made a simple flourless chocolate cake today with a chocolate ganache glaze. Actually I made it for a get-together with friends tomorrow...but I'm going to sneak a piece tonight. I imagine it will be very rich as an 8" single layer cake makes 12 servings. :P

      Could this be celiac?

      This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Itchy skin, tingling in feet and scalp

      By trents · Posted

      I do not think allergy testing requires you to have been consuming allergens in proximity to the testing. The testing itself supplies the allergens. There are two kinds of allergy testing that can be done. One is the skin prick panel and the other is serological. I've had both done. There is a lot of skepticism in the medical community with regard to allergy testing and for some good reasons. First, the same samples when sent to different labs will often yield significantly different results. Second, the results of the testing often not in accord with the person's real life experience of exposure. If you are considering getting tested for celiac disease, please realize that celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation in the lining of the small bowel triggered by the consumption of gluten. There are specific serological antibody tests designed to detect celiac disease but they are only valid as long as you are consuming regular and significant amounts of gluten for weeks leading up to to the blood draw. I have concern about your mention of having low grade lymphoma because the incidence of small bowel lymphoma in the untreated/noncompliant celiac population is almost 4x that of the general population. I am linking this article: https://www.beyondceliac.org/research-news/celiac-disease-and-lymphoma-researcher-explains-the-risk/

      Itchy skin, tingling in feet and scalp

      By Therockfrog · Posted

      7 years ago I had H Pylori and had a bad summer with my Hashimotos and found out I had low grade lymphoma.  Ever since that summer I have had issues with my feet and scalp tingling.  I thought it was related to my mild peripheral neuropathy but after a few years I realized it’s some kind of inflammation.    I then started thinking it was happening more often when eating certain foods.    Gluten and nuts.  The reaction is not too bad in my tummy, just within 30-60 minutes, my feet start tingling and my scalp sometimes tingles…so weird and annoying.   Also, in the Springtime, I’m super allergic to tree pollen and my feet and scalp tingle non stop for a full month.      So, I never really got tested for anything, just tried to avoid gluten and nuts.   And, if I did not eat those, the tingling would be minimal.    I did get an endoscopy 3 years ago because I was having stomach pain a lot and they found inflammation and redness but never told me anything other than take Pepcid for a month.  I did and it got better but till bothers me at times.   My lymphoma is still low grade.   Fast forward to last Fall.  I started having high cortisol issues and got tested for Cushings but that was mostly negative.   What happens is if I eat the wrong foods I get the tingling and then my cortisol goes up and it was up for a long time but once I fully committed to not eating bad stuff, my cortisol level went down.   Ok, so now 6 weeks ago, NOT pollen season.  I start itching and have more tingling in my feet and scalp but I’m not eating gluten or nuts.   The itching is worse that in Pollen season and now I have NO idea what is going on.   I tested myself for Milk allergy as It seems my feet would tingle 1-2 days after eating ice cream…so I stopped eating dairy also and tested the IGE for milk about 6  days after stopping it.   It showed up that I DID have a slight milk allergy.    Antihistamines dont seem to really stop the tingling.   So, now it’s been 3 weeks since I stopped dairy and I’m still itching and tingling….and now I have no idea what to do.   If I see that allergist and they do allergy testing, it will show negative since I’m not ingesting any of the bad stuff.   So, I kind of want to eat gluten, milk, nuts for a few days before I see the allergist just to make sure it’s in my system.  It will make my feet tingle worse and make it hard to sleep, etc but how else will I know 100% that I have these issues if I don’t do it this way.    Could it be a large amount of histamine and my body does just not like it?   So frustrated…sorry for the long post.

      strange symptoms/ diagnosis accuracy

      By HWB · Posted

      not rubber at all. very hard to describe a taste but it's more like metallic mixed with an element of when you're breathing in something strong like ammonia or mint, but there's no mint or ammonia taste just that sort of strong chemical sensation. i'm reasonably sure that part of it actually is metals being broken down and also a soup of toxic bacteria and god knows what else. Maybe H pylori creates some sulfide or other chemical gas that's added into the mix. I did a consult with yet another expensive 'expert' doctor and it was yet another seeming waste of money. Advised to do ketogenic diet which is a non-starter for me. The pain is slowly going away, less and less frequent but I still expect more painful episodes and vomiting. Still expelling this plaque almost constantly even when eating gluten now - which i really shouldn't do. I have a few ideas to try soon. One goes back to many years ago when I was doing liver cleansing protocol, part of which involved epsom salt. I had liquid bile expelled during the period when i was using epsom. Unfortunately epsom is too laxative and I couldn't be tied down like that. Was thinking perhaps just sulfate alone might help with bile solubility and concentrace minerals has a good amount of sulfate, so who knows.

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

      By MomofGF · Posted

      @trents @Scott Adams I want to thank you both very much for putting me at ease with your replies. I am making an apt with her doctor this week but all my worries of it being more have dissipated. This is all new to us and I think she originally had it from 2021. She lost 20 lbs because it felt like whatever she ate caused a crazy reaction. She was bloated, would have severe diarrhea and/or vomiting and it was a year of testing and nothing coming out of it. However celiac was never a thing that she was tested for. Also I just realized, my dad had a bathroom time when he would come home after night shift to poop. It was diarrhea every time and it never occurred to me that maybe it could be a reaction🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I am going to ask my mom why that was a thing. He is dead now, so testing is not an option.  These answers really helped me out and I truly appreciate your help ❤️❤️
