Suggestions anyone?

I don't cook, so making my own is not a good idea!

Thanks,

Jenn

We need to get you cooking! ;) Actually, I've been going through the same thing, and I don't miss much, to be honest. I know you said you don't cook, BUT...there might be an easy baking solution. Hungry Girl has a low cal onion ring recipe using Fiber One crumbs, but you could use Glutino breadcrumbs (or probably any other ones out there). If you followed her recipe but got rid of the gluten, that might give you at least something similar. Open Original Shared Link Couldn't hurt to check it out, and it looks super easy. If you look around on her site, she has several other recipes for them as well.

Supposedly Trader Joe's carries some gluten-free baked onion rings if you have one nearby,.....I do not.

Here is a decent looking recipe in case you change your mind. Personally you are going to have to start cooking some unless you plan on going without a number of things. Also the prepared gluten-free items are quite expensive.

Baking onion rings is very easy, it's true! :) Just be sure to season the flour very well prior to baking because some recipes exclude seasoning. You don't want bland rings! Some good seasonings include Smoked Paprika, Cayenne, Herbes de Provence and so on. Plus I love to sprinkle mine as soon as they are out of the oven with crunchy coarse sea salt.

Hey Love2travel?

This sounds great! I have silly questions. Do you use any oil? on the pan? In the batter? And what temp would you bake them? High 400 or normal 350? I have never thought of this. If it really works, heck we could be doing this with our other veggies too. Like now I'm thinking about mushrooms, cauliflower...yum. I stopped frying ya know due to the digestion thing, but I love breaded cauliflower and miss it bad!

Any help might get me and the OP cooking! Thanks!

Without cooking it's going to be difficult to get gluten-free onion rings. I'm sure they exist somewhere but they will be pricey and hard to find.

You could eat some Funyuns to see if that helps with your craving. Last I read they were gltuen free, but do double check that as ingredient can change.

Chop some large slices of onions and dredge them in Pamela's Pancake Mix - Batter and deep fry. Take them out to drain on a paper towel and lightly salt.

....pretty darn close!! :D

Let us know how it turns out! I have done something similar to make oven fried chicken gluten free and it was great--couldn't even tell it was gluten free.

So funny you should mention that--we just had oven fried chicken tonight for dinner. :D The onion rings shouldn't be much different.

      Hello,   I contacted the makers of Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix and they sent me this email.....   Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fw: Ref.

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Thank you, Scott!  This is just what I needed.  Appreciate your site very much and all of your time and energy that goes into it! Kind Regards, Peg

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
